LDS Church: Key Beliefs Explained
There’s a lot of misinformation about The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church), so let’s clear up a few things! You might wonder, What does the name even mean?
The LDS Church believes that after the death of Jesus Christ’s apostles, His original priesthood authority was lost. We believe that this authority was restored by God through Joseph Smith, which is why the church is called ‘The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints‘—Christ’s original church in modern times
At the heart of our beliefs are five key principles:
-
Faith in Jesus Christ
-
Repentance
-
Baptism by immersion for the remission of sins
-
The Gift of the Holy Ghost
-
Enduring to the end
These simple truths guide the beliefs and practices of the Church, connecting us to the original teachings of Jesus Christ.
