Church
"With great love and admiration for the many disciples of Jesus Christ who are not members of this Church, we humbly declare that angels have returned to the earth in our day. The Church of Jesus Christ as He established it anciently has been restored, with the power, ordinances, and blessings of heaven. The Book of Mormon is another testament of Jesus Christ."
—Neil L. Andersen, "What Thinks Christ of Me?"
Topics: Restoration, Book of Mormon, Church"The Church is the way by which the Master accomplishes His work and bestows His glory. Its ordinances and related covenants are the crowning rewards of our membership. While many organizations can offer fellowship and fine instruction, only His church can provide baptism, confirmation, ordination, the sacrament, patriarchal blessings, and the ordinances of the temple--all bestowed by authorized priesthood power."
—Russell M. Nelson, "Thus Shall My Church Be Called", Ensign and Liahona, May 1990
Topics: Church, Ordinances, Priesthood"Ours is not a feeble message. It is not a fleeting task. It is not hapless; it is not hopeless; it is not to be consigned to the ash heap of history. It is the work of Almighty God, and it is to change the world."
—Jeffrey R. Holland, "The First Great Commandment", Liahona and Ensign, November 2012
Topics: Missionary Service, Church"The Church is the mooring in this tempestuous sea, an anchor in the churning waters of change and division, and a beacon to those who value and seek righteousness. The Lord uses this Church as a tool in pulling His children throughout the world toward the protection of His gospel."
—Elder M. Russell Ballard, "That the Lost May Be Found", General Conference, Apr. 2012
