From his
first talk as a special witness:
Therefore, in
addition to my boundless admiration of His achievements and my adoration
of Jesus for what He is—knowing that my superlatives are too shallow to
do more than echo his excellence—as one of His Special Witnesses in the
fulness of times, I attest to the fulness of His ministry!
How dare some
treat His ministry as if it were all beatitudes and no declaratives!
How myopic it is to view His ministry as all crucifixion and no
resurrection!
How provincial to perceive it as all Calvary and no Palmyra! All
rejection at a village called Capernaum and no acceptance in the City of
Enoch! All relapse and regression in ancient Israel and no Bountiful
with its ensuing decades of righteousness!
Jesus
Christ
is the Jehovah of the Red Sea and of Sinai, the Resurrected Lord, the
Spokesman for the Father in the theophany at Palmyra—a Palmyra pageant
with a precious audience of one!
He lives
today, mercifully granting unto all nations as much light as they can
bear and messengers of their own to teach them. (See
Alma 29:8.)
And who better than the Light of the World can decide the degree of
divine disclosure—whether it is to be flashlights or floodlights?
