I was just baptized thru the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints! I almost died last year, God the Heavenly Father blessed me and saved my mortal/carnal life! Jesus Christ died for my sins and i am forgiven by him, he still lives! I am a disciple of Jesus Christ, he is the way, he is the truth, he is the light! Jesus Christ lives, this is my testimony in Jesus Christ's name, Amen!
Amen 🙏
Bingo! That's the truth. ❤😊❤
Thank you for sharing these beautiful words and your life. I have been a member all my life and I've had my up and downs with extremes. However I am always known of God and our Lord and Savior with a beautiful holy Spirit.
Thank you for your wonderful words and bearing witness and your testimony! Congratulations on your baptism! 😊👍🏻
Thanks so much for sharing, and congratulations!
I testify The church Of Jesus Christ is the true Church , Joseph Smith JR. is a prophet , The book of Mormon is another testament of Jesus Christ and We love everyone with everything...
I just got set apart as temple ordinance worker today and came home to find this video recommended on my CZcams page right in the center, published minutes after I left temple, tonight is also the first time I returned to temple after 6 years absence.
That's so exciting!
I spent the last 6 years fighting an addiction that I had been stuck in since I was a 11-12 years old, but now I am also a temple worker and preparing to serve a mission very soon!
Now, I don’t have to ”fight” any sin or temptation anymore. Jesus fights my battles for me! ❤️
@@Brother-Jacob I am so happy to hear your story, you will be a great missionary! Romans 7:25 " I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin."
Welcome back!!!! 🥳 You will LOVE being an ordinance worker. That has been one of the greatest blessings of my life 💕
@@Brother-Jacobso proud of you!!! Blessings for your mission!! 🥳
I have often felt a connection to heaven like no other in the temple, and I promise anyone who is willing to listen, that God truly does speak to His children who have ears to hear in the Hallowed halls of these sacred buildings.
your words made me weepy. I am going to clean our temple tomorrow and take a friend I met on family search through for her endowment after the cleaning. And then Tuesday I am being set apart as a temple worker. I am so humbled and excited! I loved your words!
There is no place on Earth that has more peace and prevalence of the Spirit of the Lord than these Holy Temples. Christ dwells there.
That's RIGHT!👍🏻
Nowhere I've ever been🪻🫂
I have been to more places on earth that have been more spiritual for me. Out in nature among the forrests, rivers and mountains. And these were created by actual God. Not man.
@@michaelgrey7854Peace be unto you 🙏🏻
My 2 favorite places to be to be close to the lord: out in nature away from the business of life, and the temple
@@michaelgrey7854but have you been to the temple?
I’m a service missionary and I have been an ordinance worker for the duration of my mission. It has truly blessed my life. There is no better place to grow closer to God than in his house!❤
Whenever I'm in the temple, the rest of the world just disappears. No matter how stressful my life gets hours feel peace and calm in the temple.
AGREED💜🙏🏻
There is no peace & calm anywhere that you receive while in a temple. ❤
Amen
Amen
Amen to that!!!!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
You are so right. The only peace is found in Jesus Christ and in His Word, the Bible.
Peace can come after a few times through The Holy House of The Lord.
Some of the nicest people I have ever met, I received my first Bible from two guys when living in Los Angeles.
I will never forget their names, elder Burton and elder Johnson, I thought that they were angels because I never saw them again.
GOD BLESS them
You can find new missionaries and tell them your brief special story
That's awesome, the scriptures are so powerful to feel Gods love. Have you been able to find those guys again?
@@solohorn1771 we had a fantastic time that day,when they left, I had another question,so I ran downstairs and they were nowhere to be found...they had to be angels
A beautiful, informative and loving video of the temples and the sacred ordinances performed therein. Thanks. Elder and Sister Christofferson for this spiritual blessing!!
I’m so glad the church decided to put out a video like this. It’s important that the world sees this!
I KNOW THIS CHURCH IS TRUE!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤
💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯👍🏻🙏🏻🕊️💟🥰
I am so grateful for the covenants and blessings of the temple. I praise the name of my Master, Jesus Christ.
The times I go into the Temple I were white socks. It feels like Holy Ground under your feet.. ❤
I love Temples! They truly are Houses of the Lord. A place of love, peace, and beauty! 🤍
AWESOME!! Thank you Jesus for your restored church!!
The temple has always been a place of peace and joy for me. God truly is closer there.
How grateful I am that temples cover the earth. Without Temples, the earth would utterly be wasted. But we do have temples and families can be together forever and we can return to God’s presence
There is no place on earth like the House of The Lord!
Excellent! This is a perfect explanation we will be sharing with our Seminary class, our friends, those who are curious about who we are and what we do in temples. We love our Savior, Jesus Christ. This is His work and His church. I know this for and of myself.
I know as I go to help the spirits who have passed on, it is still their choice to accept the service.
Still, I have felt love and gratitude from some who'd been waiting for YEARS
💜🙏🏻
I KNOW therefore that I'm making a wonderful difference in some people's lives. I LOVE to serve them, and it reminds me of where I need to be spiritually🕊
Oh, how beautiful. And what a needed message. Just before Conference, this is an added light.
The Savior's gifts of Temples and the ordinances and covenants in them have been among the most impactful for me in my life. No other avenue has brought me to Him with such power and efficiency. I am a better person each day because of what He blesses me with through the Temple and Temple ordinances and covenants.
I testify that the temple is a holy place , where we may draw closer to our Savior, Jesus Christ.
AMEN💜🪻🙏🏻👍🏻
i love the house of the lord! it has grown my relationship with my god and my savior to a place i never thought id get to. the temple helps me feel peace and has ultimately helped me decide to serve a mission! im so glad for the opportunity to go and worship in such a holy place!
Such a wonderful reminder of the sacred nature of temples, and such a good resource for helping people understand what and why a temple exists!
The peace, joy, and love felt in the house of the Lord, can not be found anywhere else on the earth.
Hello ,how are you ?
I love to see the temple. I am going back one day. To feel the holy spirit and listen and to pray.
You can do that anywhere. That does not take a building to do that.
They are so many sons and daugthers of God that they are not know this. But hopefully in Gods time they will know this plan of salvation.
The temple ordinances are literally all over You tube. This is no longer the case.
I testify in the name of the Saviour Jesus Christ, that Houses of the Lord are where you can feel closest to Heaven, and find greater peace, despite the turmoil. I am reminded of my divine nature in these sacred places, and have gained a greater glimpse of what it means to be a child of God. Temples are one of the few places on this Earth where I feel completely safe and secure. It is here where I feel a greater measure of God's love for all His children, as well as a closer connection to loved ones since passed xxx
Beautifully explained and what a simple yet powerful message. Thank you ❤
This is a beautiful explanation of what a temple is and why it is so special to us. I will be sharing this often with others❤❤
I love the Helena Montana temple, such a beautiful temple
I miss the temple. It’s been a long time for me. This was a good reminder of what I’ve been missing.
Love it!
Thank you Elder & Sister Christofferson, beautifully explained.
We have been promised that if we feast from the Book of Mormon, repent daily and attend the temple, that we will be blessed with personal revelation. That promise is real. For those who can, get to the temple regularly. For those who can’t, do whatever you can to get yourself to the temple.
Take the promised blessings at face value. Prove to yourself that the Lord wants to reveal his will for you and your family to you.
The reward we receive is magnitudes more than the effort we put in.
Where is that in the Bible Book chapter and verse?
Ephesians 2:20-21 (KJV):
“And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone; In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:”
Isaiah 29:18 (KJV):
“And in that day shall the deaf hear the words of the book, and the eyes of the blind shall see out of obscurity, and out of darkness.”
John 3:16 (KJV):
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”
@@williamdavidson5818 The Lord reveals His work to His prophets and confirms to believers that the revelations to the prophets are true (Amos 3:7). This promise in my message above was made by a modern day prophet of the Lord. I invite you to come listen to the words of His prophets this weekend on this CZcams channel.

When the Lord came the first time as a humble Lamb to His own he said: “Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.”
But, when He comes again- this time it will be in Glory! A small portion of that Glory will be His appearing “suddenly come to His Temple” for He will have hundreds of Houses to His Name where to reside, built up by the faith and diligence of His Saints the world over!
And.. all pain and strife will cease “in all [His] holy mountain: for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea.” Amen!
AMEN👍🏻🙏🏻💜
The temple is truly the house of the lord ❤️
Going through the temple for the first time this Saturday, what perfect timing for this vid to come out!
We are lucky to be a member of The ChurchofJesusChristofLatter-daySaints. this explanation is great thing to know more than people know about The sacred covenants of the temple. To those people willing and interested to know watch and learn more about the Temple. Even your member or non- member.
I LOVE YOU MY DEAR JESUSGOD FOREVER AMEN ✝️🙏✝️🙏✝️🙏✝️
Watching from Philippines.❤ Temple is I dream to live because there is of peace.
A glimpse of HOME!
Beautiful!
My family and I just visited Puebla's Temple open house, what a beautiful, mesmerizing and delightful experience to share an open house with the world! ❤
I go daily and its power is unlike anything. I need it! Huge blessing!
Unlike any other holy place on earth
I can think of many on Earth created by actual God. The Cascade ranges for one.
That has been my experience as well! I've been to the Cascades, the Sandias and elsewhere, which are magnificent places; but the Temple is the House of The Lord.
We are so grateful for the House of the Lord! 💛
@williamdavidson - Challenging to point to the KJV is not a necessary requirement to being true. We believe in modern revelation through living prophets in our day. Because of that, the Lord has, does, and will reveal things that we didn't know previously. So it is with modern temples.
The biggest testimony I can give of the peace and calm that come from the temple is from personal experience. Having spent a lot of time in the temple, I have felt that many times, especially when facing personal challenges.
A temple is nothing, but a building. Its stones will be thrown down. True followers of christ are the temple.
Get ready for general Conference everyone, this is going to be great!
Temple my love❤
Amen
i find great power in this video. ❤
Christ reigns, long liveth thy KING indeed.
Wow, it's cool to see a video of the inside of one of these, even though of course about anyone can see them inside before dedication, and those of us with recommends can still see them in person after the dedication. I wish there were videos that would be a tour through all the halls and rooms of every temple, especially both before and after a renovation (or with what's about to happen to the old Provo Temple).
❤❤❤
I'm so grateful for the House of the Lord, and I feel that His holiness is there.
Thank You GOD, & Jesus Christ, for our Temples ,I, have been sealed to my husband & children❤
Having Temples on the earth today is an infinite blessing
On 20 April that’s where my bride and I will be! It’s all I can think about these days! after 16 years of marriage, it feels like we’re getting married again only more! I understand now families are forever!

A Couple of young Ladies from the local LDS Church came to my door a few days ago, they were doing their missionary service. I chose to give them my time and have a brief conversation with them, they were very kind and not judgemental at all when I said I hadn't been to Church in years, they read some scripture and invited me to their Church, they weren't pushy at all and asked about my little dog I had. I just stopped in to watch this video to learn more about the LDS. I might just attend one of their services one day soon.
@emperorpalpatine1228, thanks for your comment and for welcoming the sister missionaries into your home. If you're interested, you can learn more about The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saint at comeuntochrist.org?cid=42001274.
“For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.”
Ephesians 2:8-9 ESV
I love the temple❤❤❤
One experience I had in the temple is that I felt my grandma's presence inside of celestial room
Thank you for sharing.
Beautiful explanation...am speechless ❤️😍❤
Absolutely beautiful video. I am so glad the Church is being more open about what happens in temples, so that it takes away a lot of the speculation from both in and out of the Church. It is a deeply reverent place, where spirits from beyond the grave mingle with mortal beings. It is peaceful unlike any other place on earth.
It's hard for me to read the New Testament and not notice how often christians resorted to the temple. They didn't only congregate in their local homes and meeting houses, but they sought out the temple specifically. Luke didn't have a Jewish connection to the temple, but frequently wrote about how post resurrection christians continued to attend the temple. What a blessing it is to again attend the temple as a christian.
I can't wait to be physically able to go back to the Temple again. I had my right leg amputated because didn't know I had diabetes. As soon as I can be more stable in getting around, I'll renew my recommend start back to the Family Histo r y Center to get the other Family members I was working on for Temple work before the pandemic worked on and get started with Temple work again.
AMEM AMEMAMEM
I have had the awesome opportunity to travel to many countries around the world. I have been in far away jungles, on top of grand mountain peaks, and sat by quiet brooks in remote locations. All of these places in nature have spoken to my soul, and I have felt Deity there. Inside the Temples, in the house of the Lord, I have felt him most. I love that the Lord has called for the building of Temples around the world, so that everyone can have the opportunity to feel his presence no matter where they may be.
Jesus Christ ❤🌹
Really good video, gorgeous place
Every time I worship in the House of the Lord, God lets me know that he sees me.
Very good!
Great video! ❤
Great introduction and explanation. Thank you.
I love the Temple. Worshipping Heavenly Father and His holy son Jesus Christ in the temple has brought me closer to them and helps me feel peace when I am having difficult times.
How wonderful that this video is accessible to all. Shows how the covenants that occur in the temple are sacred not secret. Grateful for temples and the gospel in my life.
I totally agree ,it's great
My wife and I celebrated our 70 th wedding. Sealed in the Saint George temple and worked 13 years in the Sacramento.the temple and its convents kept our sealing and testimony of Jesus Christ alive and growing!
General conference talked a lot about temples. I will make a better effort to go there more, participate in temple ordinances, and enjoy the peace offered there.
I love the Temple!!! What a blessing of having a place where we can withdrew from the world to be with our Heavenly Father!!! I have received so much personal revelation to guide my life!!
So beautiful the Temple is inside and out, thank you for this video.
I can’t wait to go💞
When I was a ordinance worker, when I was assigned to be in the celestial room, I used to get bored. Now its one of my favorite places. I was able to spend time organizing my thoughts from my life outside the temple. Most of the time those thoughts weren't church or temple related, but it felt so natural to be able to think in a quiet place with no outside distractions. Whenever I go to the temple now I try to spend some time in the celestial room, even if I was just doing inicitories.
im taking my temple class for 6 weeks, i completed 3 weeks , 3 weeks left, i cannot wait to enter His Holy House, i been outside for a decade, this time is different, Mysoul hungry and thirst for His Gloy and His work and His words, i cannot wait to fulfil all my real destiny which is Gods Plan for my Life, love u all borhters n sisters.
🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾
Being an ordinance worker in the temple is the most incredible oppritunities that I have had. I am a service missionary serving in Edmonton, Alberta, and serving in the temple is an honor above all.
Amazing!
Thank you for this! I'm grateful for the effort which was made, under inspiration, to offer such clear teaching and earnest testimony.
Im glad the church put this vidio out because antimormon think inside the temple is secret but it is sacred Gods house and to be treated with love and respect thats why we need a temple recommend
I need to go to the temple
Beautiful clarity from an apostle of the Lord Jesus Christ in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and incisive wife. 💛 🙏🏽
