"The fundamental principles of our religion are the testimony of the Apostles and Prophets, concerning Jesus Christ, that He died, was buried, and rose again the third day, and ascended into heaven; and all other things which pertain to our religion are only appendages to it." ~ Joseph Smith 

"The best way to obtain truth and wisdom is not to ask from books, but to go to God in prayer, and obtain divine teaching." ~ Joseph Smith

"I had seen a vision; I knew it, and I knew that God knew it, and I could not deny it, neither dared I do it." ~ Joseph Smith

"My country is the world, and my religion is to﻿ do good." ~ Thomas Paine

I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and are Restoration Christians. Sometimes we are referred to as Mormons which is just a nickname. I love my lord and Saviour Jesus Christ!  I am so thankful that I wish the world to know that we are taught to love all unconditionally after all the two greatest commandments are that we love God and love our neighbor even as we love and treat ourselves. Of course, this means that service, charity and thinking of others before ourselves is what we are taught each week in Sunday School and to each of our members. We are not perfect as no one is, we all live in this same world with all the same challenges as you all do. We simply aspire to rise above the focus on "me" and to live and stand a little taller remembering that God loves each and every one of us equally. I never personally feel any better than when I am helping someone.  This is the hands-down best I ever feel. Especially when it is something that helps them to help themselves or others. So I created this channel if for no other reason than hoping to help at least one or two people realize what we actually believe and teach rather than all the other stuff people claim we do. You'd think we live in the information age this wouldn't be a problem, not so. People are the same as they have been for thousands of years, they tend to focus on any negative things, just look at the news and media. Rather than take time to find out the truth most of us are too busy surviving and working two or three jobs just to pay the bills to find out any more.  So I am posting this about our actual teachings and beliefs.
