Let me start by introducing myself...
My name is Andy
Rupert I live in Utah. And as most everybody knows Utah is the Mormon
capitol of the world. I don't live very far from the
Salt Lake City Temple. I was born into this church in the year 1983
and would not change that for the world. My next statement would be yes
I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints I find
myself lucky to be born in this dispensation. I enjoy reading the Book
of Mormon, and learning as much as I can about the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
I am one of 10
Brothers and no Sisters; I know not actually your average 6 Boys 4
Girls Utah family. But a girl born into this family would get spoiled rotten
and not to mention never get a date. And if she ever did the guy would
be terrified beyond Capacity for rational thought. He'd be thinking all
through the date, "If I mess up, her brothers will kill me." I think it
would be WAY weird to have a girl living in a house with this many boys!
Prophets
(Past and current) have said a lot about dating, being morally clean and
the law of chastity and I have found a really cool web site about this
Very
Topic.
Me being a teenager and all, I am aware of the difficulties
and struggles we have concerning this subject growing up in this day
and age. It is hard to stay in control. But we must understand that next
to murder sexual transgressions are one of the best and easiest ways to
offend
God.
As you may know we were saved for these
Latter-Day's because God knows we can get through this. There is this thought
that I have on my wall in my room that I wrote in a low time in my life
and that is "God would not give us obstacles if he knew we could not get
through them." I truly believe that! I am sure many of you have heard the
expression "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger." I think it's true,
God gives us trials and tribulations to test us and make us stronger. So
that the next time he gives us a trial us we will be ready.
~Helpful
Site for Memorizing Scriptures~ I also think that memorizing scriptures
is very important. So on this site I have decided to give you guys a link
to Scriptorian it is a Scripture Mastery
program that allows you to access The Standard Works This program also
allows you to scripture chase any verse from the
Book of Mormon., D&C.,
Old
Testament., and the New Testament Including
all 100 Scriptures that you are supposed to memorize
to letter in Seminary. It also allows you to pick and chose any scriptures
from the Standard works. You can pick your favorite scriptures; this program
makes it very easy for you to memorize your favorite scriptures ~Crystal Tears~ I have had the Internet off and on
for the last couple of years, and found many good web sites, but I think
that in all my years of having the WWW my all time favorite LDS web page
I have ever found is Crystal Tears. it is a
picture of Christ looking down on this earth from above and crying, no
doubt because of the evil and wickedness of the world. Or if you will,
the great and spacious building in Lehi's dream.
~Share Your Testimony~ I believe that second to the Gospel
of Jesus Christ your Testimony is one of the greatest things that you can
share with anyone. Elder Robert D. Hales, Of the Quorum
of the Twelve Apostles, In a October 1994 General Conferance Talk, entitled,
'The Importance of Receiving a Personal Testimony' Said "A strong
testimony allows us to help others in their search for truth. Our testimony
is a gift from God. It should
be shared, but we do not have the authority to bestow a testimony upon
someone else, because a personal
testimony is granted by the Holy Ghost. It can aid others in gaining
knowledge for themselves—a knowledge abiding in the heart that leaves no
room for doubt." How powerfull is that? The last sentence in that quote
is probably one of my favorites on this entire page. A true Testimony,
is a knowledge abiding in the heart that leaves no room for doubt. Please
feel free to share your Testimony. ~Free Stuff~ For the last couple of years I have
been downloading LDS related programs and files
on the internet, and I believe that I have found some that are quite good.
I do remind you that everything that you are able to download, I downloaded
from someone else, or obtained at no cost so I figured I would share the
wealth. Like I said, "I profite nothing from this web site exept that from
the thought of healping others." Share
