The Gift of the Holy Ghost. Thurs, Feb 12th
I do not know everything. I have a small glimpse of the purpose of life and am still discovering my own purpose. The members of the Godhead know everything. Members of the LDS church believe that there are three seperate members of the Godhead, with three seperate bodies/beings, not all three in one personage. I think this is amazing. I think it is amazing that we have Heavenly Father, who is the master of all, the Father who sent His Son, the Father of our spirits, He is in charge. We have Christ who atoned for our sins, who died so that we may live spiritually and physically and experience joy. Then we have the third member of the Godhead who makes sure we know all of these things and more. There are a few reasons I can think of why there needs to be a third member, when the first two seem to have quite enough power to do whatever they need and we need. 1. The rule of witnesses - Heavenly Father needs two witnesses. 2. We need to have some degree of tangible proof of direction, guideance, an indication of love and the experiences of feeling true joy, which can only come by the designated vehicle of the Holy Ghost. I am so very grateful for this. I'm sure there are many more reasons. What do you think?
