Finishing the Articles of Faith and My Own Value Statements

 The final three articles of faith are as follows: 

11 We claim the privilege of worshiping Almighty God according to the dictates of our own conscience, and allow all men the same privilege, let them worship how, where, or what they may.

12 We believe in being subject to kings, presidents, rulers, and magistrates, in obeying, honoring, and sustaining the law.

13 We believe in being honest, true, chaste, benevolent, virtuous, and in doing good to all men; indeed, we may say that we follow the admonition of Paul—We believe all things, we hope all things, we have endured many things, and hope to be able to endure all things. If there is anything virtuous, lovely, or of good report or praiseworthy, we seek after these things.


As I seek to follow Jesus Christ, I find hope and faith in good things to come, even as I face life's trials. I believe in a Gospel that sees and celebrates the beauty in the people and world around me and I seek after the good, wonderful things that God has given to His children across the globe.
