Imagine sitting down with Joseph and discussing each other's beliefs in God...he seemed like a very patient and compassionate person...his brother too.
"I knew it, and I knew God knew it...and I could not deny it." These are very powerful words. I didn't have a vision, (or in person meetings with any Heavenly beings) when I prayed about the truthfulness of the Book of Mormon. But my experience was (and still is) something I just CANNOT deny. I know it, and God knows it, and I cannot deny it!
What would you say to the millions of Muslims who say "God told me Islam is the only true religion"? Or those in Christendom who claim "Jesus himself appeared to me and said I had to start my own church. Here it is"? They feel the same feelings you feel and they think it's God. But it isn't. Have you ever looked into the mistakes people have made at times in the Mormon church when they have thought "I prayed about if I should marry this person and I know God wants me to marry this person! I just know it. The spirit assured me that this marriage will definitely be successful" or "I prayed about if I should start this business and I know God is revealing to me in my heart that this business venture is wise and will help me provide for my family. I know God will bless this. The spirit made it clear to me in a feeling inside me which I know to be true" Please ask people in your local ward if any of them have never had such a feeling that later turned out to be completely wrong? I promise you that there will be more than a few

Before I was a convert I always wondered where our modern prophets were. When I learned of the Book of Mormon and Joseph Smith, like many I turned away. However, as I read the BoM with a true heart I knew what I was reading was true. Then as I learned more about Joseph Smith outside of all the biased against him I knew he was a true prophet. It felt like fire in my heart and I wanted nothing more than to shout to the whole world that it is true.

Mandy Sommers , Jesus final words were “It is finished” he established his church and ended the need for a priesthood and animal sacrifices, Why would the work that was finished need to be re established ? The Bible also says no one has seen God at any time and lived , Also the Bible says even if an angel of light comes to you preaching a different gospel let him be accursed, The articles of faith state that you believe the Bible as far as it’s been translated correctly, That sounds exactly like something a false prophet would say . I would be very careful about this religion, Your eternity is depending on it and you only get one chance to get it right
@@Pound_Shift where did you get the idea Christ ended His Priesthood? Who told you that? Do you know the difference between an Angel from God and an angel of light? Just something to think about and if someone is truly interested in learning they will search these thing's out in their spiritual journey to know Christ's gospel.
I hadn't been aware of the version that mentioned the "inappropriate images" that entered his mind before the Father and the Son appeared. That somehow made this event more relatable. Whenever we're trying to embark on something important and good, this happens. And it's only by calling on Jesus Christ that we can have the darkness cast away and proceed with the good. Beautiful video. Important message.
justalittlebitmo: I hadn’t, either, but it makes sense, because the adversary has the power to “put thoughts” and to “tempt”. Despite being faced with the surprise of this adversary, Joseph did choose God without hesitation, and enlisted His help. Such a great lesson. Sometimes it is easy to assume that those thoughts are our own, causing us to even beat ourselves up. But Joseph knew that they were not his own. We can use this lesson to remember that this applies to us, too.
I also never heard this version but related to it. I’ve had “Sleep Paralysis” before and I’ve felt that darkness Joseph feels where it feels like my soul is in danger and my body is paralyzed. During this darkness and feeling the adversary’s presence, I would have inappropriate sexual images flash into my head of things I’ve never seen or thought of and knew it was satan influencing and hijacking my thoughts. Ive heard voices and a mad voice shouting “Mine Mine Mine” I would try to yell “God” or “Jesus” but I couldn’t and when I thought of these names I would only feel more anger and paralysis. I had these experiences severely almost every day one summer as I was seeking God. It was so draining and terrifying. I felt that God had abandoned me. In September 2016 missionaries approached me in the parking lot of my student apartment complex. With much hesitation but trust in God I prayed with a sincere heart and real intent to know if the Book of Mormon was true. As I read the lines of Moroni 10 I felt this strong intense feeling of love and peace which brought me to tears. It felt like a drop of heaven. As I continued to read, it was exposed in my mind that it was true. I couldn’t deny this revelation I had. I knew nothing about this church but knew that it was all true. I was baptized October 2016 and Endowed November 2017. Every few months I’ll experience “sleep paralysis” (like last night) but I don’t fear anymore and know this means better things are in store. This encourages me to be a better disciple and not let Satan win my soul.
Darlene S: I can totally relate to you! (unfortunately!) I've had this 'paralysis' too before, at least four times, with it happening twice while I was serving a mission in Montana in 1990. In my experience, three situations can cause it: success in the mission field (which thwarts satan's plans and makes him angry), intense and sincere personal study of the truth and scriptures that is continually enlightening to you (he's losing you!), and also evil spirits brought on by someone else's inappropriate activities or addictions when the evil spirits are angry that you're not joining in! (Or they're happy that you're losing in some way in the struggle and want to mock you!) I was "attacked" when my ex-husband had an affair when our second child was 5 months old and her brother was 3 years old and their father had just abandoned us. He was heavily addicted to pornography (to my horrific discovery that I found out a year after we were married in the TEMPLE!!) I was sleeping on the couch one night in the bonus room that my children and I were renting in someone's house. My baby was sleeping in her crib across the other side of the room and my 3 year old was sleeping in his bed near the same area. I had caught a pretty bad cold a few days before and so I felt weak with all that was going on. At about 12:30 am, I suddenly awoke for no reason, I thought for a few seconds. Then, I tried to move to get comfortable in a different position, but simultaneously discovered that I could not move, even after trying three times!! :( I knew from my missionary experience that if I could just say 'Jesus Christ' out loud, that I'd be able to move again. But...I kept trying to move my mouth, and I couldn't move that, either! I knew something (some evil being! :( was on top of me, and that it wouldn't let me move until I could say our Savior's name out loud! So I kept trying, but to no avail. I became determined to YELL his name!!! Finally, after the fourth desperate effort, I heard my voice yell, "Jesus Christ!!!" ...and I could move in that very instant! What a relief!!! After an instant of relief, I felt angry: How DARE one of my ex-husband's filthy unseen friends who LOVED that we LOST OUR HUSBAND AND FATHER try to get at me! AND mock me because we lost our family unit after I'd tried so hard over 4 desperate years to hold it together!! (To be sure, I wanted out of the marriage the moment I found out about his addiction, but kept hoping for another 3 years, somehow. When I accidentally found out about his affair, that was the last straw for me!! Two years before, our Bishop had warned him that if he didn't give up his pornography, he WOULD, FOR SURE, have an affair! ...Well, that was nearly 25 years ago, and I've felt so blessed not to live with a hopeless addict ever since, but I know that if I continue to follow the Savior, I'll be blessed and He will protect me, and He will protect you, as well! Keep your faith strong and know that prayer can also protect you, as well as daily scripture reading. Forgot to add that after the attack, I prayed, and felt the comfort of the Holy Ghost! We will win this mortal fight as long as we remain on the side of our Eternal Father and his Son, Jesus Christ! :)
I truly believe in the church of Jesus Christ of latter day saints I, I am part of the church and I have received many blessings in my life,in trials of times I kneel down and pray 🙏 it was answered God loves us and hears our prayers when we pray sincerely.
I bear you my testimony, that the church of Jesus Christ is the Lords, kingdom once again established on the earth,preparatory to be the second coming of Jesus Christ.
I will always love how much God loves us individually and equally. And if we just but do our part and pray and ask we will receive blessings beyond measure! I'm so grateful that because of his Plan of Salvation I can be with my family for eternity🙏💞🙏💞
With the turmoil in the world these days - global tensions, economic uncertainty, societal breakdown, and now the covid 19 virus spreading across the globe - now more than ever we need a prophet's voice to guide us. I am thankful for Joseph Smith's faith. And for Russell M Nelson as he guides us through these trying times. God loves us and would not forsake us!
For I had seen a vision; I knew it, and I knew that God knew it, and I could not deny it, neither dared I do it; at least I knew that by so doing I would offend God, and come under condemnation. This quote always gets me. A boy named Joseph smith had a question about his soul. No church could answer it so he read James 1:5 in the bible and decided to act. The young men went into the woods and the greatest event to happen on the earth after the atonement took place. God loves us and if we have a question, we can ask of god.
@@scottvance74 there is a podcast about the first vision from the Joseph smith papers that explains that the reason he didn't write it down for a couple years is because he didn't have a journal at the time and later started his journal
What a beautiful and powerful representation of what Joseph Smith experienced. Let the world rage against the truth, it will not change what happened, and we will not deny it. The Gospel of Jesus Christ has been restored.
Hi @processofelimination9700, thanks for your question. We believe that when Jesus was on the earth, He established His Church. After the Savior's death and resurrection, Peter and other Church leaders were rejected and killed, and key teachings and priesthood authority were lost from the earth. Then, in 1820, God and Jesus called a new prophet named Joseph Smith to restore the Church and its true teachings. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is Jesus Christ's restored Church. To learn more, check out this short video about the restoration: ua-cam.com/video/lJnN2FkgD-g/v-deo.html If you'd like talk to missionaries, who can explain more in depth and answer more questions, submit a request here: www.comeuntochrist.org/contact-us?cid=42001274
@churchofjesuschrist so God couldn't preserve his word like he said he would? ( psalm 12:5-7) And needed someone nearly 2000 years later to correct it when it contradicts the bible? If God allowed his word to go years corrupted sounds to me he failed to preserve his word like he said he would.
There is no words to describe my feelings after watching this video. The Holy Spirit has testified again of the First Vision's truth as other times before since I received in Madrid, Spain, my first testimony back on January 1971. I was then 22 years old.
I love my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ ♥️ And I love the gospel that has been restored for all of us to learn more about God! I am grateful for this knowledge the Lord has given to me. Pray to hear him! He will fill your soul with love light and knowledge. ♥️
Thank you Lord for a prophet. Since I was a little boy I have watched and waited for thy second coming, I hope to see you coming in the clouds in all your glory, and I pray I will not shrink before you, but lift my head and cry unto thee, and fall in thy arms. Amen
Yes indeed, and on a greater scale, we all witnessed the ministry of Jesus Christ and ultimately His crucifixion and resurrection. Perhaps this is why our testimonies are reinforced by our spirits remembering these divine events. 🙇🌹
I have wondered the same. It has always been thought of mine that we were part of the Heavenly host that was singing of goodwill to men when the Shepherds were told by the angel to go and find the newborn Savior.
Heavenly Father wants to answer our prayers in such a personal way!! Imagine having your name uttered by Heavenly Father!! Physically!! What a feeling!! Indescribable
Truly God our Father is a mysterious God...he called upon a youngman to restore the gospel and establish his kingdom on earth. Praise God and thank you for your love and mercy.
What is it like to see the God Almighty and His Beloved Son? What is it like, after the vision, to go home and do normal stuff like; have lunch, sleep, cut wood logs? How Lovely Was the Morning! I believe in Joseph Smith's first vision!
I have a testimony of this Church and I love the prophet Joseph Smith. He was and he is the prophet of this dispensation. We have a great cause, the cause of Christ.
My Great grandfather was with Joseph Smith and wrote that when he would prophesy his face would literally shine from the inside out with the light of the Holy Ghost, a visible glow. Thank you God for leading me to the Church of Jesus Christ of latter day saints. The fruits of the Church are good and pure.
@@lukasbeier8338 Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.-- Matthew 5:8 Looks like your reasoning has just been contradicted by scripture.
Reasonably new to the Church Of Latter Day Saints and The Book of Mormon. Watching this and a couple of other video's, I feel like I am in the right place to learn at this time in my life. Beautiful video and well produced. Thankyou. ❤️🙏😇
As a child, I never had reason to doubt the truth of this event. As an adult, I couldn't be more sure that Joseph Smith saw the Father and the Son standing next to Him.
The first time I knew Joseph was a prophet was when I heard that old Janice Kapp Perry song, "In Quiet Grove". That song pierced my soul and I couldn't forget it until I joined the Gospel years later in 1993.
I love Joseph Smith, and I love the Lord! I’m so happy and comforted to know the truths that were restored following this marvelous event. Let the light, glory, and love of God lift us all at this, our time of challenge.
I am so happy for THE true church!!!! I have never felt more love for it than now. I know that at this weird time, if I trust in Christ, all will be well. I know that Joseph Smith was a true prophet, and I am so glad I’m able to say that so truthfully. Recently I’ve felt distant from the gospel, I had been seeing so much anti stuff online and it really shook my testimony. But, over the course of me realizing that my testimony was basically gone, I saw that I needed to regain my faith. I know that I am much happier when I am faithful. Over this quarantine, I’ve been able to find my testimony again and I’m so thankful!! I am so much happier when I am closer to Heavenly Father. I am so glad for a prophet who can lead and guide us through this uncertain time! 🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍
Tacie Stewart Great testimony! When your deeply rooted in the Gospel of Jesus Christ, we will be able to tell truth from lies. The internet will have lots of false information about our beliefs. But when we put our trust heavenly Parents we will know the true source of our beliefs. So stand strong in opposition! Many people will try to tell you otherwise. So like the prophet Thomas S. Monson said dare to stand alone! God bless you sister! #hearhim P.S. The Holy Ghost will tell you all things!
I always ask my associates if they're spending as much time searching for the truth in the scriptures as they are looking for falsehoods when they are searching the internet's anti LDS comment's. Why is it only the LDS Church that seems constantly targeted? Who is behind that? I have my answer!
God wants to speak to us... isn't it great that he gives us the opportunity exercise faith to Hear Him. (James 1:5) "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son..." (John 3:16)
David Niccum Jesus Christ lived a perfect, sinless life. He established His Church, taught His gospel, and performed many miracles. He chose twelve men to be His apostles, including Peter, James, and John. He taught them and gave them priesthood authority to teach in His name and to perform sacred ordinances, such as baptism.

I am grateful to have watched this today, didn't know how much I needed it. So much uncertainty with current events. The world is truly in commotion. The Holy Spirit witnessed to me, again, that Joseph Smith did see God the Father and Jesus Christ. The Restoration is real. Prophets are again on the earth. I very much look forward to their messages in general conference this coming weekend. Christ told his followers to fear not, he'd overcame the world. I will strive to HearHim in my thoughts and deeds.
Abby C : Satan’s sinister influence on us as his victims is Satan’s own doing, and the unworthiness for doing so is on his own shoulders. Our cry to Heavenly Father for the Spirit and for rescue is important, especially the quick timing, not delaying, because Satan strikes like a flame; if we put it out quickly, no burn can happen. If we delay, a burn can happen. Timing is critical to safety.
I have cried out to the God many times when I felt overcome with Darkness, and each time, Darkness cleared and I was left with light. Those times are strong testimony builders of the Lords power and love, and the role of faith in my own spiritual success. But every time I felt unworthy. The Darkness was fear and concern about my own sins and mistakes. But He always rescued me.
I'm forever grateful to know this historical and spiritual event. I'm forever grateful and blessed to be a member of the true Church. Let's #HearHim always specially in this crisis times that we're facing.
We must pray everyday, the outbreak will leave in the name of christ Jesus we can get over it, with our prays we'll take out this desease the church won't shut down in the name of God we might come back, I have been holing up for three week God is in charge.
I must testify that the holy spirit filled my soul with peace, love, knowledge, and understanding that Joseph Smith saw our Heavenly Father and His BelovedY
I know this to be true. I am greatful that the Lord answered Joseph Smith fervent prayer. He wanted to know the truth so he did what inspired him to do so.This day was the day that the Lord appeared to Joseph Smith and gave instructions what to do. The heaven and earth was opened again for the last dispensation to restored the gospel back on the earth again. I am thankful and greatful that this took place so many years ago and still stands it’s truth to now and the future. I know it to be true we can still receive revelation then and to now also. All we need to do is to pray about it only our Lord and Saviour will answered it for you. I humbled myself and read ii, watched it again and again and to hear the Heavenly Father and Jesus voice. Hear Him. I love this church with all my heart.
I wouldn't be surprised to discover that everyone who's ever lived on earth at some time in their life has had an experience where they Heard a Voice from heaven or had an experience with the the divine. God is speaking to his children, we need to learn to #hearhim.
I _really_ appreciate the attention to detail here that incorporates all the different written accounts of this vision. The axe in the stump where his father has been clearing trees. Joseph hearing noises behind him causing him to "spring to his feet" but seeing nobody there. Christ's first words being "Thy sins are forgiven thee". This is now my favorite depiction of the First Vision.
You have been deceived. Please read the Bible yourself. No angel came to Joseph. It was a demon! Disguising himself as an angel of light. A demon. The Bible spoke of this yet people are still led astray. But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. - GALATIANS :8
@@GodDOESNTCHANGE It is wonderful to know that the Lord God and his only begotten son visited the boy Joseph in that grove. It is true and living and real. I love you brother. May the truth soften your heart and enlighten your mind.
This is true and I know it for myself that Joseph Smith jr. saw what he said he saw. My mind is at peace with this knowledge I have received by the Spirit of God. Even as I share my brief feelings in this message, the peace of the Lord is upon my mind. We truly are a blessed generation to be apart of this great work of the Lord. I know that The Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter Day Saints is truly the Lord's kingdom once again upon the earth to bless the lives of all God's children and prepare them for the second coming of the Lord Jesus Christ our Savior.
I truly believe this happened. A light a peace fills my soul as I ponder our Father’s great love for us in Calling the Prophet Joseph. I know the Savior lives and that this is His work.
I stand all amazed that Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ came to visit a simple 14 year old boy, an event that has changed my life and countless others. I absolutely believe Joseph Smith's story and have a testimony of him as the Prophet of the Restoration. I thank my Heavenly Father for sending Joseph to restore the Gospel. I am so grateful for this video, and it's something I needed to see.
Reminds me of the times I have been able to watch this video at the Church History Museum and when I watch it there with an 180 degree screen, it's like I'm actually in the forest and watching Joseph Smith seeing Jesus Christ and Heavenly Father in the mists of light and seeing the vision myself.
@@scottbrandon6244 Hi Scott, just something to think about; I had a close call with death many years ago and was able to see who was watching over me. There's more to this story which I rarely share, unless someone needs to know more about what I experienced. I never relate my account the same way or provide a full story depending on a person's current situation is or what I know will be of help to them. It's a sacred thing to me also not wanting to offend my Father in Heaven by treating this gift lightly as the veil was opened for a period of time. I cannot deny what I know to be true. Why am I telling you this? Because I completely understand why Joseph didn't relate his experience the same or in it's fulness in different situation's. God bless.
THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST OF LATTER DAY SAINTS IS THE LORDS TRUE CHURCH HERE UPON THE EARTH 🌎 PLEASE PRAY AND ASK GOD IF THIS IS TRUE AND RECEIVE YOUR OWN SPIRITUAL WITNESS OF IT'S TRUTH
This video gave me a new understanding of Joseph Smith's first vision. I used to think it was just to find out which religion, which church he wanted to join. What I now understand was that Joseph wanted to find grace with God, to be forgiven, to know Him.
Ian joining the religion of the Church of Jesus Christ of the latter days and I believe what the book of Mormon says I truly agree with Joseph Smith our prophet

I also never heard this version but related to it. I’ve had “Sleep Paralysis” before and I’ve felt that darkness Joseph feels where it feels like my soul is in danger and my body is paralyzed. During this darkness and feeling the adversary’s presence, I would have inappropriate sexual images flash into my head of things I’ve never seen or thought of and knew it was satan influencing and hijacking my thoughts. Ive heard voices and a mad voice shouting “Mine Mine Mine” I would try to yell “God” or “Jesus” but I couldn’t and when I thought of these names I would only feel more anger and paralysis. I had these experiences severely almost every day one summer as I was seeking God. It was so draining and terrifying. I felt that God had abandoned me.
In September 2016 missionaries approached me in the parking lot of my student apartment complex. With much hesitation but trust in God I prayed with a sincere heart and real intent to know if the Book of Mormon was true. As I read the lines of Moroni 10 I felt this strong intense feeling of love and peace which brought me to tears. It felt like a drop of heaven. As I continued to read, it was exposed in my mind that it was true. I couldn’t deny this revelation I had. I knew nothing about this church but knew that it was all true. I was baptized October 2016 and Endowed November 2017. Every few months I’ll experience “sleep paralysis” (like last night) but I don’t fear anymore and know this means better things are in store. This encourages me to be a better disciple and not let Satan win my soul.
Darlene S:
I can totally relate to you! (unfortunately!) I've had this 'paralysis' too before, at least four times, with it happening twice while I was serving a mission in Montana in 1990. In my experience, three situations can cause it: success in the mission field (which thwarts satan's plans and makes him angry), intense and sincere personal study of the truth and scriptures that is continually enlightening to you (he's losing you!), and also evil spirits brought on by someone else's inappropriate activities or addictions when the evil spirits are angry that you're not joining in! (Or they're happy that you're losing in some way in the struggle and want to mock you!) I was "attacked" when my ex-husband had an affair when our second child was 5 months old and her brother was 3 years old and their father had just abandoned us. He was heavily addicted to pornography (to my horrific discovery that I found out a year after we were married in the TEMPLE!!) I was sleeping on the couch one night in the bonus room that my children and I were renting in someone's house. My baby was sleeping in her crib across the other side of the room and my 3 year old was sleeping in his bed near the same area. I had caught a pretty bad cold a few days before and so I felt weak with all that was going on. At about 12:30 am, I suddenly awoke for no reason, I thought for a few seconds. Then, I tried to move to get comfortable in a different position, but simultaneously discovered that I could not move, even after trying three times!! :( I knew from my missionary experience that if I could just say 'Jesus Christ' out loud, that I'd be able to move again. But...I kept trying to move my mouth, and I couldn't move that, either! I knew something (some evil being! :( was on top of me, and that it wouldn't let me move until I could say our Savior's name out loud! So I kept trying, but to no avail. I became determined to YELL his name!!! Finally, after the fourth desperate effort, I heard my voice yell, "Jesus Christ!!!" ...and I could move in that very instant! What a relief!!! After an instant of relief, I felt angry: How DARE one of my ex-husband's filthy unseen friends who LOVED that we LOST OUR HUSBAND AND FATHER try to get at me! AND mock me because we lost our family unit after I'd tried so hard over 4 desperate years to hold it together!! (To be sure, I wanted out of the marriage the moment I found out about his addiction, but kept hoping for another 3 years, somehow. When I accidentally found out about his affair, that was the last straw for me!! Two years before, our Bishop had warned him that if he didn't give up his pornography, he WOULD, FOR SURE, have an affair! ...Well, that was nearly 25 years ago, and I've felt so blessed not to live with a hopeless addict ever since, but I know that if I continue to follow the Savior, I'll be blessed and He will protect me, and He will protect you, as well! Keep your faith strong and know that prayer can also protect you, as well as daily scripture reading. Forgot to add that after the attack, I prayed, and felt the comfort of the Holy Ghost! We will win this mortal fight as long as we remain on the side of our Eternal Father and his Son, Jesus Christ! :)
"My soul was filled with love." One of my favorite quotes from all of the accounts of the First Vision.
Agreed ❤
I love that too. It jumped to me when Joseph said it and made so much sense. The lingering effect of Deity.
I truly believe in the church of Jesus Christ of latter day saints I, I am part of the church and I have received many blessings in my life,in trials of times I kneel down and pray 🙏 it was answered God loves us and hears our prayers when we pray sincerely.
Thanks for sharing your testimony, Premalatha!
Thank you for all of you.
Keep going. You got this!
Premalatha,,,... What a cool name to
go with such a sweet spirit!!!!!
My experience also!
All we have to do is keep christ at the center. Have faith he can perfect you, heal you, comfort you. All we need to do is Hear him
And Him Alone. Jesus is Enough
Rylee Rigby I agree with you Rhylee Rigby. 🙏💛😇
This show how God knows all of his children by name.😊😊
I bear you my testimony, that the church of Jesus Christ is the Lords, kingdom once again established on the earth,preparatory to be the second coming of Jesus Christ.
I will always love how much God loves us individually and equally. And if we just but do our part and pray and ask we will receive blessings beyond measure! I'm so grateful that because of his Plan of Salvation I can be with my family for eternity🙏💞🙏💞
I look forward to be with Jesus for eternity. Everything for His Glory. Thankfull for His Grace that He could save a sinner like me. Praise God
With the turmoil in the world these days - global tensions, economic uncertainty, societal breakdown, and now the covid 19 virus spreading across the globe - now more than ever we need a prophet's voice to guide us. I am thankful for Joseph Smith's faith. And for Russell M Nelson as he guides us through these trying times. God loves us and would not forsake us!
I just met with two elders and I will attend church my first time here in Pottsville Pennsylvania on Sunday morning.
What a powerful experience!
For I had seen a vision; I knew it, and I knew that God knew it, and I could not deny it, neither dared I do it; at least I knew that by so doing I would offend God, and come under condemnation.
This quote always gets me. A boy named Joseph smith had a question about his soul. No church could answer it so he read James 1:5 in the bible and decided to act. The young men went into the woods and the greatest event to happen on the earth after the atonement took place. God loves us and if we have a question, we can ask of god.
I love it! :)
@@scottvance74 Even if you don't consider Joseph a credible witness, there were two others there, the Father and the Son. Ask them.
My goodness ! You guys are some easy marks !
@@scottvance74 there is a podcast about the first vision from the Joseph smith papers that explains that the reason he didn't write it down for a couple years is because he didn't have a journal at the time and later started his journal
you belongs to the BSA?
No matter how many times that I have watched this video, I still feel the spirit come into my soul as much as the first time that I watched it.
What a beautiful and powerful representation of what Joseph Smith experienced. Let the world rage against the truth, it will not change what happened, and we will not deny it. The Gospel of Jesus Christ has been restored.
Restored? What was wrong with it?
Hi @processofelimination9700, thanks for your question. We believe that when Jesus was on the earth, He established His Church. After the Savior's death and resurrection, Peter and other Church leaders were rejected and killed, and key teachings and priesthood authority were lost from the earth. Then, in 1820, God and Jesus called a new prophet named Joseph Smith to restore the Church and its true teachings. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is Jesus Christ's restored Church. To learn more, check out this short video about the restoration: ua-cam.com/video/lJnN2FkgD-g/v-deo.html
If you'd like talk to missionaries, who can explain more in depth and answer more questions, submit a request here: www.comeuntochrist.org/contact-us?cid=42001274
@churchofjesuschrist so God couldn't preserve his word like he said he would? ( psalm 12:5-7) And needed someone nearly 2000 years later to correct it when it contradicts the bible? If God allowed his word to go years corrupted sounds to me he failed to preserve his word like he said he would.
There is no words to describe my feelings after watching this video. The Holy Spirit has testified again of the First Vision's truth as other times before since I received in Madrid, Spain, my first testimony back on January 1971. I was then 22 years old.
Thanks for sharing your experience and testimony, Arturo!
I love my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ
♥️ And I love the gospel that has been restored for all of us to learn more about God! I am grateful for this knowledge the Lord has given to me. Pray to hear him! He will fill your soul with love light and knowledge. ♥️
I love the voice of Joseph Smith in this video.
People need to pray every day to keep themselves in the right direction
I was overwhelmed by the spirit while watching this. ❤️
Lord Jesus, have mercy on me, amen🙏
Thank you Lord for a prophet. Since I was a little boy I have watched and waited for thy second coming, I hope to see you coming in the clouds in all your glory, and I pray I will not shrink before you, but lift my head and cry unto thee, and fall in thy arms. Amen
Amen
I’ve loved watching this on Temple Square. The Spirit testifies of truth as I watch this. So beautiful and peaceful. Thank you for sharing.
Wey are in the only church of Jesus cristh i send greetings from Guadalajara Jalisco México
I have often imagined that we, in the pre-existence, were anxiously waiting for this event. I wonder what our view might have been like.
Wonderful to see !
Never thought of that. That's amazing to think of.
Front row seats with a bucket of popcorn
Yes indeed, and on a greater scale, we all witnessed the ministry of Jesus Christ and ultimately His crucifixion and resurrection. Perhaps this is why our testimonies are reinforced by our spirits remembering these divine events. 🙇🌹
I have wondered the same. It has always been thought of mine that we were part of the Heavenly host that was singing of goodwill to men when the Shepherds were told by the angel to go and find the newborn Savior.
At first I didn't know that this story is true but now I do! ❤🎉😮
Truly a great time
Heavenly Father wants to answer our prayers in such a personal way!! Imagine having your name uttered by Heavenly Father!! Physically!! What a feeling!! Indescribable
Im belong to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints😉😉😉
Truly God our Father is a mysterious God...he called upon a youngman to restore the gospel and establish his kingdom on earth. Praise God and thank you for your love and mercy.
Glory be to the Almighty
For this is his work and his glory
To bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man
What is it like to see the God Almighty and His Beloved Son? What is it like, after the vision, to go home and do normal stuff like; have lunch, sleep, cut wood logs? How Lovely Was the Morning! I believe in Joseph Smith's first vision!
Well you spread your word on what you saw
Thank you Joseph Smith for restoring the gospel of Jesus Christ. We love you.
I have a testimony of this Church and I love the prophet Joseph Smith. He was and he is the prophet of this dispensation. We have a great cause, the cause of Christ.
Jesus is the Christ. Prayers are answered. Families are forever.
Boy, if I had a nickel for every time Jesus appeared to me.
My Great grandfather was with Joseph Smith and wrote that when he would prophesy his face would literally shine from the inside out with the light of the Holy Ghost, a visible glow. Thank you God for leading me to the Church of Jesus Christ of latter day saints. The fruits of the Church are good and pure.
I'm the Maughan “But,” he said, “you cannot see my face, for no one may see me and live.” Exodus 33:20 who is lying God or Joseph Smith
@@lukasbeier8338 Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.-- Matthew 5:8
Looks like your reasoning has just been contradicted by scripture.
@@lukasbeier8338why didn’t Moses die after he spoke to God face to face?
God lives. Jesus Christ lives.
I NEED THIS SO MUCH RIGHT NOW THaNKYOU Lord Jesus for giving us your special prophet Joseph Smith. IN JESUS NAME AMEN.
I needed this today
Reasonably new to the Church Of Latter Day Saints and The Book of Mormon. Watching this and a couple of other video's, I feel like I am in the right place to learn at this time in my life. Beautiful video and well produced. Thankyou. ❤️🙏😇
Welcome 🤗❤
As a child, I never had reason to doubt the truth of this event. As an adult, I couldn't be more sure that Joseph Smith saw the Father and the Son standing next to Him.
Amen!
The first time I knew Joseph was a prophet was when I heard that old Janice Kapp Perry song, "In Quiet Grove". That song pierced my soul and I couldn't forget it until I joined the Gospel years later in 1993.
Trevor Martin I’ve never heard that song! I’m now off to find it. Thank you so much for sharing!
I loved Janice Kapp Perry's music!
this is still one of the best videos the Church has ever produced.
I love Joseph Smith, and I love the Lord! I’m so happy and comforted to know the truths that were restored following this marvelous event. Let the light, glory, and love of God lift us all at this, our time of challenge.
I am so happy for THE true church!!!! I have never felt more love for it than now. I know that at this weird time, if I trust in Christ, all will be well. I know that Joseph Smith was a true prophet, and I am so glad I’m able to say that so truthfully. Recently I’ve felt distant from the gospel, I had been seeing so much anti stuff online and it really shook my testimony. But, over the course of me realizing that my testimony was basically gone, I saw that I needed to regain my faith. I know that I am much happier when I am faithful. Over this quarantine, I’ve been able to find my testimony again and I’m so thankful!! I am so much happier when I am closer to Heavenly Father. I am so glad for a prophet who can lead and guide us through this uncertain time! 🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍
Thanks for sharing your experience and faith, Tacie. We're glad you're here.
Read Revelation 22
Tacie Stewart
Great testimony! When your deeply rooted in the Gospel of Jesus Christ, we will be able to tell truth from lies. The internet will have lots of false information about our beliefs. But when we put our trust heavenly Parents we will know the true source of our beliefs. So stand strong in opposition! Many people will try to tell you otherwise. So like the prophet Thomas S. Monson said dare to stand alone! God bless you sister! #hearhim
P.S. The Holy Ghost will tell you all things!
I always ask my associates if they're spending as much time searching for the truth in the scriptures as they are looking for falsehoods when they are searching the internet's anti LDS comment's. Why is it only the LDS Church that seems constantly targeted? Who is behind that? I have my answer!
Joseph, this is my Beloved Son...HEAR HIM. #HearHim
I love that part so much. It always makes me cry tears of joy 😊
God knows the name of everyone of his human children...just like he knows the name of every star in the heavens.😊😊
God wants to speak to us... isn't it great that he gives us the opportunity exercise faith to Hear Him. (James 1:5) "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son..." (John 3:16)
David Niccum
Jesus Christ lived a perfect, sinless life. He established His Church, taught His gospel, and performed many miracles. He chose twelve men to be His apostles, including Peter, James, and John. He taught them and gave them priesthood authority to teach in His name and to perform sacred ordinances, such as baptism.

I am grateful to have watched this today, didn't know how much I needed it. So much uncertainty with current events. The world is truly in commotion. The Holy Spirit witnessed to me, again, that Joseph Smith did see God the Father and Jesus Christ. The Restoration is real. Prophets are again on the earth. I very much look forward to their messages in general conference this coming weekend. Christ told his followers to fear not, he'd overcame the world. I will strive to HearHim in my thoughts and deeds.

God please help us to stop the spread of virus. In Jesus name. Amen
I love this. When I feel Satan’s influence, I don’t feel worthy to call on the Lord. But I should be like Joseph, and seek His grace more earnestly.
Abby C : Satan’s sinister influence on us as his victims is Satan’s own doing, and the unworthiness for doing so is on his own shoulders. Our cry to Heavenly Father for the Spirit and for rescue is important, especially the quick timing, not delaying, because Satan strikes like a flame; if we put it out quickly, no burn can happen. If we delay, a burn can happen. Timing is critical to safety.
I have cried out to the God many times when I felt overcome with Darkness, and each time, Darkness cleared and I was left with light. Those times are strong testimony builders of the Lords power and love, and the role of faith in my own spiritual success. But every time I felt unworthy. The Darkness was fear and concern about my own sins and mistakes. But He always rescued me.
I'm forever grateful to know this historical and spiritual event. I'm forever grateful and blessed to be a member of the true Church. Let's #HearHim always specially in this crisis times that we're facing.
The true and everlasting gospel have been restored.
What is the gospel?
This video overwhelmed my soul with peace! How ironic.
We must pray everyday, the outbreak will leave in the name of christ Jesus we can get over it, with our prays we'll take out this desease the church won't shut down in the name of God we might come back, I have been holing up for three week God is in charge.
I must testify that the holy spirit filled my soul with peace, love, knowledge, and understanding that Joseph Smith saw our Heavenly Father and His BelovedY
This is probably my favorite version of the First Vision reenacted by the church. Beautiful.
Why is there more than one version of the first vision?
I know this to be true. I am greatful that the Lord answered Joseph Smith fervent prayer. He wanted to know the truth so he did what inspired him to do so.This day was the day that the Lord appeared to Joseph Smith and gave instructions what to do. The heaven and earth was opened again for the last dispensation to restored the gospel back on the earth again. I am thankful and greatful that this took place so many years ago and still stands it’s truth to now and the future. I know it to be true we can still receive revelation then and to now also. All we need to do is to pray about it only our Lord and Saviour will answered it for you. I humbled myself and read ii, watched it again and again and to hear the Heavenly Father and Jesus voice. Hear Him. I love this church with all my heart.
I wouldn't be surprised to discover that everyone who's ever lived on earth at some time in their life has had an experience where they Heard a Voice from heaven or had an experience with the the divine. God is speaking to his children, we need to learn to #hearhim.
I am great ful for our prophet and our Lord he is leading us down the right. I fear not for he with me
I love this. And I know it is true. How grateful I am for a God who wants to answer His children when they turn to Him.
I _really_ appreciate the attention to detail here that incorporates all the different written accounts of this vision. The axe in the stump where his father has been clearing trees. Joseph hearing noises behind him causing him to "spring to his feet" but seeing nobody there. Christ's first words being "Thy sins are forgiven thee". This is now my favorite depiction of the First Vision.
Why is there more than one account? We were always taught there was only one.
I feel Joy to know that I am a member of the Lord's Church.
You have been deceived. Please read the Bible yourself.
No angel came to Joseph. It was a demon! Disguising himself as an angel of light. A demon. The Bible spoke of this yet people are still led astray.
But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. - GALATIANS :8
@@GodDOESNTCHANGE It is wonderful to know that the Lord God and his only begotten son visited the boy Joseph in that grove. It is true and living and real. I love you brother. May the truth soften your heart and enlighten your mind.
I always feel the Strong influence of the Spirit whenever I watch this video. I know this to be true.
This is true and I know it for myself that Joseph Smith jr. saw what he said he saw. My mind is at peace with this knowledge I have received by the Spirit of God. Even as I share my brief feelings in this message, the peace of the Lord is upon my mind. We truly are a blessed generation to be apart of this great work of the Lord. I know that The Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter Day Saints is truly the Lord's kingdom once again upon the earth to bless the lives of all God's children and prepare them for the second coming of the Lord Jesus Christ our Savior.
Today is March 26th. It’s early spring and a beautiful clear day. Thanks for sharing this
We thank thee, O God, for a prophet to guide us in these latter days.
God bless you
I truly believe this happened. A light a peace fills my soul as I ponder our Father’s great love for us in Calling the Prophet Joseph. I know the Savior lives and that this is His work.
Read the Bible and you’ll realize it didnt
Jesus is king, I also love to pray to our lady, peace to the world in this difficult time
How essential it is to have a living prophet in our time like ancient times. Joseph Smith was chosen to be a prophet.
He’s a heretic not a prophet.
I stand all amazed that Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ came to visit a simple 14 year old boy, an event that has changed my life and countless others. I absolutely believe Joseph Smith's story and have a testimony of him as the Prophet of the Restoration. I thank my Heavenly Father for sending Joseph to restore the Gospel. I am so grateful for this video, and it's something I needed to see.
best video ever send missionaries

What a testimony builder❤️.
Thank you, Thank you so much. Pray with all your heart. Believe in God. For he does miraculous things!
Reminds me of the times I have been able to watch this video at the Church History Museum and when I watch it there with an 180 degree screen, it's like I'm actually in the forest and watching Joseph Smith seeing Jesus Christ and Heavenly Father in the mists of light and seeing the vision myself.

This is true. I’m so thankful that I know this without any shadow of doubt!
Which version? Only one can be true.
@@scottbrandon6244 Hi Scott, just something to think about; I had a close call with death many years ago and was able to see who was watching over me. There's more to this story which I rarely share, unless someone needs to know more about what I experienced. I never relate my account the same way or provide a full story depending on a person's current situation is or what I know will be of help to them. It's a sacred thing to me also not wanting to offend my Father in Heaven by treating this gift lightly as the veil was opened for a period of time. I cannot deny what I know to be true. Why am I telling you this? Because I completely understand why Joseph didn't relate his experience the same or in it's fulness in different situation's. God bless.
THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST OF LATTER DAY SAINTS IS THE LORDS TRUE CHURCH HERE UPON THE EARTH 🌎 PLEASE PRAY AND ASK GOD IF THIS IS TRUE AND RECEIVE YOUR OWN SPIRITUAL WITNESS OF IT'S TRUTH
This one always has a message each time I listen to it.
A bit like the book of Mormon! 😊
So profound! God answers prayers.
This church is true. Anyone who says otherwise is wrong.
This video gave me a new understanding of Joseph Smith's first vision. I used to think it was just to find out which religion, which church he wanted to join. What I now understand was that Joseph wanted to find grace with God, to be forgiven, to know Him.
I love this video ❤ So glad we have multiple accounts of the First Vision.
Ian joining the religion of the Church of Jesus Christ of the latter days and I believe what the book of Mormon says I truly agree with Joseph Smith our prophet
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Love the fact that the righteous are rising up. Amazing! 😀 Very nice.
I have a personal testimony of the FATHER and the Son and Joseph Smith.
