The Godhead- January 2013

The Godhead

The Godhead is January 2013 's curriculumn in Youth. 


I learnt about Godhead these previous weeks! If you are the member of the church or you attend our church, that's really good! :3 You might have learnt it a lot~

Do you know the articles of faith, verse 1?

“We believe in God, the Eternal Father, and in His Son, Jesus Christ, and in the Holy Ghost” (Articles of Faith 1:1).      

*( I put all the links in the text. Click the one that looks blue :3) *

Well, you think this is really simple verse, and you know it well right? 
Right. If you don' t know about this verse too much, this doesn't look that important but it actually really is. :3

That explains the Godhead. 
Godhead----

God, the Eternal Father
Jesus Christ, his son and our brother 
And the Holy Ghost.


Well~ I'll explain about each one of them! (Seperate infos will be uploaded too if anyone needs seperately. ^*^ )


Outlines to choose from this month:


The one at the top is for teachers. We get these asked to us :3


<For Young Womens and who do personal progress>


This is a pretty big opportunity for every month!


Personal Progress

The following activities from Personal Progress relate to the lessons in this unit:
Faith value experience 5
Divine Nature value experiences 12, and 6
Individual Worth value experience 1

So for this month, THIS will be really helpful.


BUT let's start talking about the Godhead.


Well, as it was written at the top, there is Heavenly Father, Jesus Christ and Holy Ghost in the Godhead.

Usually, lots of other churches believes that they are just one being. (Sorry but I'm not blaming you :) I respect other religions. )

No. They're not one being. They are seperate. Well, can they combine together as one being? No.



The true doctrine of the Godhead was lost in the apostasy that followed the Savior's mortal ministry and the deaths of His Apostles. 
This doctrine began to be restored when 14-year-old Joseph Smith received his First Vision (see Joseph Smith—History 1:17). From the Prophet's account of the First Vision and from his other teachings, we know that the members of the Godhead are three separate beings. The Father and the Son have tangible bodies of flesh and bones, and the Holy Ghost is a personage of spirit (see D&C 130:22).
Although the members of the Godhead are distinct beings with distinct roles, they are one in purpose and doctrine. They are perfectly united in bringing to pass Heavenly Father's divine plan of salvation.
—See True to the Faith (2004), 73–74

<About the members of the Godhead>

Heavenly Father:

We, latter day saints, believe that God, the Father, is literally that—the Father of all of us. 
We are His children, and as such we can learn of Him and from Him. 
We can strive to know Him and to be like Him. 
He loves us and knew us before we came to earth, desires our happiness in this life, and wants us to return to live with Him in the next life. 
(Latter-day Saints believe that our earth life is only a small portion of our eternal existence. 
They believe that we lived with God before we were born and we can return to live with God after we die. This concept is often referred to as the Plan of Salvation.)
And I also learnt that even if you don't believe in his religion, he still loves you and still you're his child. That's the most important thing which people wrongly understands that he hates other religions.

I hope this is quiet clear :D

Jesus Christ:

This is official website which you can get lots more informations (Than little kid like me :3) 
http://jesuschrist.lds.org/SonOfGod/eng/

Well, who is Jesus Christ? 

When Heavenly Father planned the plan of salvation and happiness, (seeAlma 34:9)—was presented (see Alma 42:5, 8), one was required toatone to provide redemption and mercy to all those who accepted the plan (see Alma 34:1639:1842:15). 
The Father asked, “Whom shall I send?” He who was to be known as Jesus freely and willingly chose to answer, “Here am I, send me” (Abraham 3:27). “Father, thy will be done, and the glory be thine forever” (Moses 4:2). Also, Satan (known as devil, usually) volunteered that he will go but he said he wants all the glory to be to him. So Heavenly Father choose Jesus.
In preparation, the earth was created: “By the Son I created [the earth], which is mine Only Begotten,” declared the Father (Moses 1:33; see also Ephesians 3:9Helaman 14:12Moses 2:1).




Well, I hope this is quiet clear too :3 Any questions or wrong things I wrote, you can tell me by comment.

The Holy Ghost is the third member of the Godhead. He is a personage of spirit, without a body of flesh and bones. He is often referred to as the Spirit, the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of God, the Spirit of the Lord, or the Comforter.

Roles of the Holy Ghost
The Holy Ghost works in perfect unity with Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ, fulfilling several roles to help us live righteously and receive the blessings of the gospel.
He "witnesses of the Father and the Son" (2 Nephi 31:18) and reveals and teaches "the truth of all things" (Moroni 10:5). We can receive a sure testimony of Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ only by the power of the Holy Ghost. His communication to our spirit carries far more certainty than any communication we can receive through our natural senses.
As we strive to stay on the path that leads to eternal life, the Holy Ghost can guide us in our decisions and protect us from physical and spiritual danger.
Through Him, we can receive gifts of the Spirit for our benefit and for the benefit of those we love and serve (see D&C 46:9–11).
He is the Comforter (John 14:26). As the soothing voice of a loving parent can quiet a crying child, the whisperings of the Spirit can calm our fears, hush the nagging worries of our life, and comfort us when we grieve. The Holy Ghost can fill us "with hope and perfect love" and "teach [us] the peaceable things of the kingdom" (Moroni 8:26D&C 36:2).
Through His power, we are sanctified as we repent, receive the ordinances of baptism and confirmation, and remain true to our covenants (see Mosiah 5:1–63 Nephi 27:20Moses 6:64–68).
He is the Holy Spirit of Promise (see Ephesians 1:13D&C 132:7, 18–19, 26). In this capacity, He confirms that the priesthood ordinances we have received and the covenants we have made are acceptable to God. This approval depends on our continued faithfulness.
The Gift of the Holy Ghost
All honest seekers of the truth can feel the influence of the Holy Ghost, leading them to Jesus Christ and His gospel. However, the fulness of the blessings given through the Holy Ghost are available only to those who receive the gift of the Holy Ghost and remain worthy.
After a person is baptized into The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, one or more Melchizedek Priesthood holders lay their hands on the person's head and, in a sacred priesthood ordinance, confirm him or her a member of the Church. As part of this ordinance, called confirmation, the person is given the gift of the Holy Ghost.
The gift of the Holy Ghost is different from the influence of the Holy Ghost. Before baptism, a person can feel the influence of the Holy Ghost from time to time and through that influence can receive a testimony of the truth. After receiving the gift of the Holy Ghost, a person has the right to the constant companionship of that member of the Godhead if he or she keeps the commandments.

Well to be honest, I copied this from this link: http://www.lds.org/ldsorg/v/index.jsp?locale=0&sourceId=e2462f2324d98010VgnVCM1000004d82620a____&vgnextoid=bbd508f54922d010VgnVCM1000004d82620aRCRD

But some knowledge and summary about Holy Ghost from my brain is:

Holy Ghost is the third member of Godhead. Usually, Holy Ghost is called the Comforter, Spirit and etc.
He guides us to right way but it's our choice to choose to follow or unfollow what he says.
He's our guider and also our teacher. Even little thing that you choose to do right might be the Holy Ghost telling you to do it. Lots of people say that they can't feel it including me, but the warmness from your heart will be the Holy Ghost. Sometimes, people hear Holy Ghost like they get answers from Heavenly Father or Jesus Christ.

I think it's clear enough.


So. .Any more infos you want me to add, ask me.
