My Gospel Words

Look for these words and phrases in this issue of the Friend!

Commandment

A commandment is something Heavenly Father asks us to do because He loves us. Commandments are directions He gives us so we can be happy and return to Him someday. We’re blessed when we follow His commandments.

Spiritual Gifts

Through the Holy Ghost, Heavenly Father gives each of us spiritual gifts to bless others. Not everyone has the same gifts, but everyone has a spiritual gift from God. You can read about some of these gifts in Doctrine and Covenants 46:11–26.

Testimony

A testimony is what you believe or know to be true about Heavenly Father, Jesus Christ, and Their gospel.

Eternal Life

Thanks to the Atonement and Resurrection of Jesus Christ, we can have eternal life, which means we will live forever with Heavenly Father, Jesus, and our families.
