The Articles of Faith of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is a list of the Basic Beliefs of the Church.
There are only Thirteen basic beliefs and in the following series that I will lay out for you will be an explanation of how we are different from all other churches.
Underlining, Italics and color are my way of emphasizing what I am saying.
Please follow the links to understand more of the background and reasons why this church is different from the rest.
You will read things and have a feeling inside your heart and mind that tells you - I know this - I know it is true.
This is because we are all brothers and sisters, literally because we are sons and daughters of God, Our Heavenly Father, here on earth for our final test.
We are here to gain a physical body and to learn how to use it and control it's passions, appetites and emotions and not let it control our spirit. The spirit is to be in control of the body.
At death we leave the body and how we lived we will be glorified according to the law that we lived by, the Telestial, Terrestrial or the Celestial. Our spirits will then be united forever with our bodies, which will be made perfect and be glorified the same as our spirit and we will be immortal.
The other reason we are here is to be tested on how we make our choices between good and evil and we will be judged by those choices. If we choose bad and eventually repent from it, the Atonement of Jesus Christ will erase those sins and if we do not repent, we will suffer for them.
The outcome of this test is to prove to our Heavenly Father if we will merit what we will get. Those who are true will gain more authority and responsibility in the eternities while others will be stopped in their progression and merit what they get.
