• 0:00
  My name is James Fantone from the Philippines and I am newly
• 0:04
  called as General Authority 70 and I would like to bear my
• 0:08
  testimony of the living Christ. I know that our Savior, Jesus
• 0:13
  Christ lives and He did what he did for all of us because He
• 0:17
  loves us. Our Savior atone for my sins and
• 0:20
  for your sins. I know that He loves us and He
• 0:23
  knows us, each and every one of us.
• 0:26
  I would also like to bear my testimony of the Book of Mormon.
• 0:30
  As a young man, I started reading the Book of Mormon and I
• 0:33
  have never stopped reading the Book of Mormon.
• 0:36
  It is indeed another testament of Jesus Christ.
• 0:40
  Every day I get the chance to know my Savior even more as I
• 0:45
  open the Book of Mormon and read it.
• 0:47
  I would also like to bear my testimony of the Prophet Joseph
• 0:51
  Smith. I know that he was the prophet
• 0:54
  of the Restoration and that he loves the work of the Lord and
• 0:58
  that he sacrificed his life so that we can enjoy the gospel
• 1:02
  even today. Once again, I would like to bear
• 1:05
  my testimony that my Savior lives.
• 1:08
  He lives. He loves each and every one of
• 1:10
  us. He sacrificed His life and He
• 1:13
  taught us how to go back to the presence of our Heavenly Father.
• 1:18
  Our Heavenly Father has a great plan and it is called the plan
• 1:22
  of salvation. It's a plan of joy.
• 1:25
  It's a plan of happiness so that all of us can one day live with
• 1:29
  them and experience the life that they truly want all of us
• 1:33
  to experience, even eternal life.
• 1:37
  Once again, I know that God lives and I share this testimony
• 1:40
  in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
