“My testimony of
the risen Lord is just as real as Thomas', who said to the resurrected Christ
when he appeared to his disciples: 'My Lord and my God.‘ I know that he lives.”
(David O. Mckay, CR., Apr. 1968, pp. 9-10.)
“In this dispensation,
commencing with the Prophet Joseph Smith, the witnesses are legion. As one of
those called as special witnesses, I add my testimony to those of fellow
Apostles: He lives! He lives with resurrected body. There is no truth or fact
of which I am more assured, or know better by personal experience, than the
truth of the literal resurrection of our Lord.” (Ezra Taft Benson, New Era,
Dec. 1980, 48)
“I testify that he is the Son
of the Living God and was crucified for the sins of the world. He is our Lord,
our God, and our King. This I know of myself independent of any other
person. I am one of his witnesses, and in a coming day I shall feel the
nail marks in his hands and in his feet and shall wet his feet with my tears. But
I shall not know any better than I know now that he is God’s Almighty Son, that
he is our Savior and Redeemer, and that salvation comes in and through his
atoning blood and in no other way.” (Bruce R. McConkie, Ensign, May 1985, 11)
“I know by experience too
sacred to touch upon that God lives, that Jesus is the Christ.” Boyd K. Packer,
Ensign, Jan. 1983, 56)
“Mine is the certain knowledge that Jesus is our divine
Savior, Redeemer, and the Son of God the Father. I know of his reality by a sure perception so sacred I cannot give
utterance to it.” (James E. Faust, Ensign, May 1995, 63)
“I know that God lives. I know
that Jesus Christ lives, said John Taylor, my predecessor, ‘for I have seen
him.’ I bear this testimony to you brethren in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.”
(Spencer W. Kimball, Ensign, May 1978, 48)
