The Gospel of Jesus Christ

So a few weeks ago I addressed our Heavenly Fathers Plan for all of us. My question for all of you is How do we recieve that highest Kingdom of Glory. I talked a little about how we can but today and the next couple of days that is what I would like to focus on. How can we return to be with our Heavenly Father in The Celestial Kingdom?

We all do great things in this life that of course will help us get to that point of returning, in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints we believe that there are five things that we need to do and follow to continue to do the correct things to return to our Heavenly Father. 

They are; We have to have Faith in Jesus Christ, We have to repent, We have to be Baptized, We have to recieve the Holy Ghost, and the last thing and one of the most important things is we have to Continue that process again, in other words we have to Endure to the End. All of these are called The Gospel of Jesus Christ.

So the first thing we have to do is have Faith in Jesus Christ. Most of us as Christians can say, "Ok i got that one down. I have had faith in Him since I was a kid". And I totally agree, as Christians we have grown up to believe in Christ and learn of him. We all have faith in him.

Well what is Faith? Faith is a principle of action. In the Book of Mormon it says, Alma 32:21, And now as I said concerning faith—faith is not to have a perfect knowledge of things; therefore if ye have faith ye hope for things which are not seen, which are true. That truly is what faith is. We know something to be real or true without seeing it. If we saw it, it would be knowledge and so that is why we have faith in Jesus Christ. Not all of us have seen Christ, Himself, and so we have to excierce our Faith and believe on Him. Who He is, What He did when He came into this World and everything.

We all have to exercise our Faith in Jesus Christ, that is the first principle in the Gospel. Without Faith we would not be able to live the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the fullest to return to live with our Heavenly Father. I know that we all need faith to progress to that great blessing.
