I Believe In Christ

I have a simple yet powerful declaration to share with you: I believe in Christ.

I believe in Christ
I'm not the first to make this statement. Many around the world have deep and abiding faith in Jesus Christ. This collective belief only intensifies the individual statement, "I believe in Christ."

I'm reminded of the words to a familiar hymn in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. How wonderful it is to know that Christ loves us, that He suffered for our sins, and that He lives again!

I believe in Christ; he is my King!
With all my heart to him I’ll sing;
I’ll raise my voice in praise and joy,
In grand amens my tongue employ.
I believe in Christ; he is God’s Son.
On earth to dwell his soul did come.
He healed the sick; the dead he raised.
Good works were his; his name be praised.


I believe in Christ; he stands supreme!
From him I’ll gain my fondest dream;
And while I strive through grief and pain,
His voice is heard: “Ye shall obtain.”
I believe in Christ; so come what may,
With him I’ll stand in that great day
When on this earth he comes again
To rule among the sons of men.

(LDS Hymns #134; text: McConkie)
