The Mormon's Belief
The Thirteen Articles of Faith
1. We believe in God, the Eternal Father, and in the Son, Jesus Christ, and in the Holy Ghost
2. We believe that man will be punished for their own sins, and not for Adam's Transgression
3. We believe that through the Atonement of Christ, all mankind may be saved,by obedience
to the laws and ordinances of the Gospel.
4. We believe that the first principles and ordinances of the Gospel are first. Faith in the Lord
Jesus Christ, second. Repentance, third Baptism by immersion for the remission of sins;
forth, Laying on of hands for the gift of the Holy Ghost.
5. We believe that a man must be called of God, by prophecy; and by the laying on of hands
for the gift of the Holy Ghost.
6. We believe in the same organization that existed in the Primitive Church, namely, apostles,
pastors, teachers, evangelists, and so forth.
7.We believe in the gift of tongues, prophecy, revelation, visions, healing, interpretation of
tongues and so forth.
8. We believe the Bible to be the word of God as far as it is translated correctly, we also believe
the Book of Mormon to be the word of God.
9. We believe all that God has revealed, all that He does now reveal, and we believe that he will
reveal many grat and important things pertaining to the Kingdom of God.
10.We believe in the literal gathering of Israel and in the restoration of the Ten Tribes; that Zion (the New Jerusalem) will be built upon the American continent; that Christ will reign personally upon the earth; and that the earth will be renewed and receive its paradisical glory.
11. We claim the priviledge of worshiping Almighty God according to the dictates of our own conscience, and allow all me the same privilege, let them worship how, where, or what they may.
12. We believe in being subject ot 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.
