You have just stumbled upon the Standard of Truth. What is the Standard of Truth? Well, a Standard is a rule or principle that is used as the basis for judgement. And truth is, the true or actual state of things. Therefore the Standard of Truth is the rule or principle that is used as the basis for judgine the actual state of things. Joseph Smith Jr., Prophet and restorer of the Church of Jesus Christ, said,
The Standard of Truth has been erected; no unhallowed hand can stop the work from progressing; persecutions may rage, mobs may combine, armies may assemble, calumny may defame, but the truth of God will go forth boldly, nobly, and independent, till it has penetrated every continent, visited every clime, swept every country, and sounded in every ear, till the purposes of God shall be accomplished, and the Great Jehovah shall say the work is done.
The Standard of Truth is the principles of the Gospel of God through his Son, Jesus Christ.
Now what does that have to do with this Blog and what are you doing here? This blog is the opportunity to discuss those principles of the Gospel, and what it is to live those same principles. Topics will range from the Journal of Discourses to the King Follet Sermon and everything in-between. As commentary to these, the Standard Works as well as the words of the Prophets, Apostles, Seventies, and other General Authorities of the Church will be used.
I hope that this becomes a place of discussion on the comment boards, for we learn from each other, and I definately do not have all the answers. No matter how much a would like to think that I do. Hopefully you will enjoy the time that you have spent and that you will return for more!
Thank you!
