GET BAPTIZED MAYBE
An original song by Isaac Parkinson
To the tune of "Call Me Maybe" by Carly Rae Jepsen
Video Produced and Directed by Jace Cox
I turned 19 you can tell
Distanced myself from dark hell
I Did not try to Rebel
And now its time to pray
I'll give two years for a mish
Facebook password to my sis
Filled my canteen with a kiss (said goodbye to my miss)
And now today's the day
The mail was slow n postage it was low n
Big night friends no show n
Where you think I'm going? (Boise?)
Hey I just met you,
And this is crazy
But here's some scriptures
Get baptized maybe
Its hard to work right
When your comp's lazy
But here's some scriptures
Get baptized maybe?
Hey I just met you,
And this is crazy
But here's some scriptures
Get baptized maybe?
And all the local dogs
Try to chase me
But here's some scriptures
Get baptized maybe
New comp is from senegal
I missed parents phone call
Already made it through fall
And now its time to pray
Another green jello meal
Joseph Smith he was for real
No I do not drug deal
And now its time to pray
Time it was rolling, attacked while we're strolling
P-Day we went bowling
Just taught another lesson baby
Hey I just met you,
And this is crazy
But here's some scriptures
Get baptized maybe?
It's hard to work right
When my girl dumped me
But here's some scriptures
Get baptized maybe?
Hey I'm a Mormon
And this is crazy
But here's a ballot
Vote Romney maybe?
If you are left wing
Take this CTR ring
But here's the scriptures
Get baptized maybe?
When I get home I'll find a wife
That I want so bad
That I want so bad
That I want so, so bad
When I get home I'll find a wife
That I want so bad
And you should know that
That I want so, so bad
Your down for 6 oclock
We're kinda busy
But here's some scriptures
Get baptized maybe?
Hey I just met you
And this is crazy
But here's my number
So text me maybe?
And all I do is teach
You can't replace me
But here's some scriptures
Get baptized maybe?
Best two years of my life
And I am so glad
And I am so glad
And I am so, so glad
Best two years of my life
And I am so glad
And you should know that
And I am so, so glad
Get Baptized Maybe? - บันเทิง
I'm not Mormon but I thought this was cute. Very creative. I have been singing "here's some scripture; get baptized maybe" all week. Good work guys.
Super cute! I am not Mormon, but I love their message of modesty and purity. :)
I'm proud to be a Mormon☺
The tiny dogs chasing him are hilarious!
Agreed!!!!
I honestly don't know why people hate mormons... they're the nicest people ever!!!
+Magali Vazquez Because they preach a soul damning message
+SonsofThunder What message is it? I'm sure I can clear your vision on the matter, I know Mormons to be very reliable and righteous.
Emma Grader Mormons don't preach the true gospel of Jesus Christ, and believe in an entirely different Jesus than the Holy Bible.
Well then, would you mind to tell me what you believe to be the true Gospel is?
***** Pro_30:6 Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.
Love this parody and many others I have watched. The missionaries were a blessing in my life. A more loving family I never had until I joined the Church in 2014. God Bless the missionaries, every one.
I am not a member of this church, but the take on the song is unique. Interesting.
I'm Baptist! I just want to say, the work you guys do is amazing! I have shown your "Virtue" video on my Facebook wall 2 or 3 times. I don't care who is doing the work to instill values in our young society today as long as someone is. You guys should get awards for the message you put out. Unfortunately, there are always a few lost souls who have to be so negative. Hopefully, one day, before they die they will repent. I will take this opportunity now to apologize to you for their nasty posts. It takes a lot of "no's" to get a few "yes's". I AM PROUD OF YOU.
Patsy Williamson You rock, my mum was raised Baptist but has been a mormon for the past 20 years and I am too
I agree, V-8CarFreak!!! Patsy, you are awesome! And you are also, V8 Car Freak!!! I wasn’t Baptist at all, but raised Episcopalian!
Sorry, I didn’t finish that! I join the church in Alaska at the age of 45! I am proud to say that I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints! It is an awesome church, and I love Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ, and try to love all my fellow brothers and sisters! Take care, and my love to you both! Love, Sister Gay Crozer Michaelis ❤️🤗👍👋💕🤟👏🙏😀
Ignoring that it's a racist religion...
The lyrics were written several weeks before the missionary entered the MTC... He didn't have any part in the production of the video, that was done by his cousins and their friends!! He just got to his mission 2 days ago after spending 8 weeks in the MTC. Don't worry, he will be an AWESOME MISSIONARY!!!
Jace, I just want to say that I absolutely LOVED your video!!
I am a convert to the Church, this year marks my 10th year as a member. I'm the first person in my family to join the Church, however, my husband (2nd) has been a member all his life. My son from my previous marriage was 6 years old when I joined the Church and he was baptized at age 8. He is now 15 and I'm hoping he will choose to serve a mission. I'm going to show him your video as I know it will have an impact on him.
I also want to thank you for serving a mission. It was due to the missionaries that I joined the Church. I was raised Catholic and when my husband and I first married I refused to let him talk to me about the Church. We lived in a very small town and it was common for him to have the missionaries over for dinner. At first, I would let them come for dinner, but only on the condition that they did NOT discuss the Church. Well, long story short, after several (and I do mean several) sets of missionaries, and about a year and a half, I finally got baptized. If it wasn't for their patience, and for them being led by inspiration, I may not have ever been baptized. I wish I could go into more detail, but this is not the place.
I know I made the right decision and I've never been happier. I have a special place in my heart for all missionaries and the work that they do. My dream is to one day go on a couples mission with my husband. Thank you again for your missionary work!
P.S. My husband and I were sealed in the temple in September 2010, one of the happiest days of my life! I'm looking forward to the day my son turns 18 and no longer needs permission from his biological father to be sealed to us as well. Then I will be completely at peace...
Don't remain sealed to Satan! Remember your baptism into Christ. And through Christ's wounds on the cross you are healed, your sin forgiven, no debt to pay, no worrying if you've done enough. There is only one way which is Jesus Christ, true God and true man who bore the cross as a perfect sacrifice for all. Lead your son to salvation in the true God; Father, Son and Holy Spirit, three in one, Holy Trinity; no God before or after but he that created all things.
***** Yeah...well the Bible says that we [Christians] are supposed to warn others that believe in lies, mormons, so that they don't suffer forever after they die an earthly death.
Mormons worship a false god that has nothing to do with the Jesus of the Bible; or anything to do with the Holy Trinity.
Essentially all who worship any one or thing that is not the LORD that is Father,Son = Christ Jesus and Holy Spirit coequal and co-eternal is to worship Satan.
Sounds like a mean thing to say but would you really consider knowing that people are in danger and not telling them to be love?
causeimbatmaaan You must have heard from third parties of the beliefs of members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Read the Book of Mormon and the Bible and you will see that they complement one another. You can find a copy of the Book of Mormon on-line at lds.org or from any missionary. You will not find any false god worshiping.
***** Thank you for your testimony. It is so great to hear from those who find the truth. As a missionary, there is nothing better than being able to bring that truth to people.
schris413 The book of mormon adds law to the gospel and confiscates the glory that is owed to Christ.
Here is a good example: 2 Nephi 25:23: “…for we know that it is by grace that we are saved, after all we can do.”
The words "after all we can do" are added to the words in the Bible at Ephesians 2:8 which says: "For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God". And even worse it hides the grace of God from the sinner.
Adding to or taking away from scripture is forbidden in scripture and it warns of what will happen to one who does such a heinous thing.
The book of mormon contradicts true scripture and is in outright dissagreement with it, that is God's Word the Bible.
It has been shown above. Everything in the Bible testifies that belief in Christ is the only way. Everything in the book of mormon says that you must first do the law and that their christ came only to forgive the sin of Adam in the beginning.
Mormonism hijacks the name "Christian" but they are two very different things and mormons have a very different god.
I am a Mormon, and I believe when you judge others you are assuming the role of God, Mathew 1:7 says: "Judge not that ye be not judged." The lord said "I the Lord will forgive whome I will Forgive, but of you it is required to forgive all men."
people who think our religion believes in polygamy, and that we are against blacks and women are wrong take for example Alex Boye, Lindsey Stirling, and Jenny Oaks baker for example.
Also one of my favorite poems titled gossip says:
Gossip like leaves blows in the wind.
Once it is whispered, it scatters and then,
Like leaves is impossible to gather back in.
Words once they are spoken can not be unsaid.
Leaving shattered reputations and lives full of dread.
Crushing repentant and innocent lives,
Making change for the better task of great size.
Which of us is perfect? Who would cast the first stone?
Let's show Christ-like love, or leave them alone.
Gossip and whispers are never a cure,
But make problems larger and innocent victems for sure.
So when you speak of others, don't scatter in the wind,
Leaves of poison you can never gather back in.\~Sharon Hunt
U just ruined the video waffling on!
Nerd
love it love it love it love it love it!!!!!!!!!
"Vote Romney maybe" 😂😂😂 LOVE IT!!!
My girlfriend is Mormon and I'm a Buddhist (Ex Roman Catholic).... She tried the "get baptized maybe" line on me. It was so cute and funny I didn't know someone actually made a whole parody
MotorJunky4Life how did you go from Roman Catholic to Buddhist?
Okay, I have to say it. I have been a Mormon all my life and I wouldn't have any other way. This video may seem stupid to those of you who aren't Mormon, but all I have to say is one thing:
I understand that we Mormons maybe different, but we are humans and we have feelings, so don't think that even though we're a different religion and we have separate views from the world, rude comments about us hurt any less.
So I would appreciate it if everyone would PLEASE stop talking or texting crap about us, and making us feel like we're a nuisance. You think that nobody cares what your comments say, but we do.
That's all I had to say, thank you.
Amen! I got your back!
You go girl!!😊
Very well written! It is not always easy to go against the trends of the world. But like Lehi's Dream,we must hold to the Ironrod, which is the word of God to lead to the tree of life, which is the love of God, which Will give us peace and joy that surpasses understanding!I love the gospel!
Leina Lister What parade is that with all the Elders? That looks like a nice event!

Oh my good gosh!! MY LIFE IS COMPLETE FINALLY SEEING THJS VIDEO!!!
I’ve been raised Christian, and have never even heard of LDS / Mormons, and I don’t know anyone who is, but I’m finding it so interesting learning about it
Thank you so very much, Elder, for this great movie or TH-cam video! Thank you to all the people that help make this! Very cool and fun and uplifting! We need that today! Love, Sister Gay Crozer Michaelis. Keep it up, young men and young women! I didn’t join the church until I was 45 and I’m about to turn 72! And I have two sons who went on missions, one to Japan and the other to California! I love the missionaries! They found me in Alaska!
I'm from the Church of Jesus Christ of latter day saints ( Or Known as a "Mormon" ) I think I'm pretty cool and I'm proud of my religion
This is insane. You guys are killing me. I sincerely hope the Mormons got it right and the billions of Muslims and Hindus got it wrong simply because this video exists. I hope and pray this shit wasn't made for no reason. God help you all.
I'm a Mormon, to be honest I don't know wether to call you off; or thank you. So let's just leave it at that.
POPUIAR M MM O
My gosh, you guys are absolutely awesome. Please keep up your fantastic mission. ❤️
I am mormon and have freinds from all walks of life. My message to all the negative people commenting on this video is that its your personal opinion to not like us. Don't go writing hateful comments on videos that are meant as jokes. Thats not going to change anything. You live your lives and we'll live ours.
LLLLOOOOOVVVVEEEEE IT
i love this!! where can i get the song at? its soo catchy! thanks jace!!
I am a Baptist and I love this song tho I mean that is really funny keep up the good work people!! and I feel ya when I go out to pass out some flyers for the church or some tracks the do exactly what happened to you in that video lol!!
Rachel Zraik God bless you sister.
I love being a member of the LDS church and I can't wait to go on a mission myself! I will be sure to sing it when i get called!
This is excellent! and I laughed my head off, so true!
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is Jesus Christ Church! It does not matter how many people hate us, we have peace of mind through Jesus Christ. If You want that kind of happiness please chat with the missionaries online LDS.org
Happiness only if you fit into an extremely narrow culture set and are not: gay, black, transgendered, female, educated in archaeology/zoology/metallurgy/linguistics/history, a critical thinker, or ask questions. The Mormon church made me suicidal because of its doctrine and continues to cause the deaths of many more that succeed in their suicide attempts because they are unable to meet the impossible requirements put on them. Before you just dismiss anyone critical of your religion as the thought stopping word "anti-mormon", it may be more honest for you to listen to the objections and then look for yourself to see if it is credible. To do otherwise would just be dishonest.
I live in Utah and I don't hate the mormons I hate what they're taught. It's a cult of hate and prejudice against any that don't follow their ways. I know mormon family's who have disowned a child for falling away or being gay and a few other reasons, That to me is disgusting and despicable human behavior. Religion is the dumbest thing mankind has ever come up with.
hawkerdoo
... But what about Nicki Minaj? Isn't her fame the dumbest thing mankind has ever come up with? Religion comes right after that ofcourse.
you lot are still christian like roman catholics and the rest
Mephitus Tompouce
word.
IS ALL ABOUT THE MONEY, $$$$$$$$$$$IS ALL WHAT THEY WANT FROM PEOPLE $$$$$$$ THAT IS WHY THEY WANT YOU TO BAPTISED.
Love &proud of mormon...;)
I do think this is cute. Bless their fresh scrubbed eager faces! 😆 No sooner do I start this video, and there is a knock on the door. *sigh* time to get the pants on. Yep...i have to tracts in my hand.
Sure, most of the museums in New Zealand have some lovely examples of the type of weapons their ancestors used. There's plenty in Tonga and Samoa too. The weapons are made out of wood, sometimes with jade or other stones used as an edge. If you kill someone with one the blood stains the wood permanently. This is why the Nephites talk about their weapons being stained with the blood of their enemies. Must have been one hell of a lucky guess that a guy in upstate New York understood that.
So did I when I was 14. When I was 14 I lived in Salt Lake City, and that was the first time I remember someone trying to explain to me what Joseph Smith really did. I had a good friend who left the Church with his mom. When he told me about Joseph smith, I defended Joseph, and stayed in the Church. I wish I had been responsible enough at the time to learn the truth then, instead of many years later, after a mission, BYU, married in the temple, children, etc.
This is awesome :) I'm a Mormon and proud of it.
I'm sorry that there was some confusion in my writing in this limited space. By "Restoration of the Priesthood", I meant the stories of angelic/resurrected beings conferring the priesthood. Joseph claimed he had authority, but made up the specific story about the laying on of hands by John the Baptist and Peter, James, & John years later, when it was expedient.
I know that the church of Jesus Christ is true. I'm 17 and I got my testimony. Nothing will make me doubt of that. I love this church, I love our prophet, I love our Heavenly father, he is always here for me. I bear my testimony in the name of Jesus Christ.
Yo recibia el dear john siempre xD
Ohmahgosh!!!! This was one of the most awesome "Call Me Maybe" parodies I have seen! Right on :) I can't wait to be a missionary! I got my call on Halloween.....headed to Perth, Australia!
Loser
I love the video! Its nice to see you guys having fun! That's what real peace in you heart can do for people. So many do down grade many different beliefs and its sad they feel the way they do. For myself, I don't knock anyone for what they believe in because we all understand things differently. We also accept things differently. That is what makes us all unique. In truth all in all we all come from one great God and God is an awesome God! Keep doing this guys! Enjoy the fruits of life
Haha this is cute ^_^
My girlfriend dumped me but hey heres some scriptures get baptized maybe lol wicked awesome
I'm a Mormon nd I don't care wat u say about me or other Mormons cuz u think it's funny and it's not wat happens if ur religion dose somthing like dat do u think u would like it no nd don't u even think of say dat u will never do it but still be nice nd dint be mean care about people around the youtube world dat are different so think b4 u write 📝 something down ⬇ 😀😀😀😀😀😀
I'm a Mormon, and I agree with sister Banabo.
+Lando Fairbourne i agree as well
I'm glad to see this, this video is not a place for Mormon hate comments!☺
I mean I couldn’t read that, it didn’t make sense with all the misspelled words and no punctuation
My husband converted to Mormonism… and then later resigned. He enjoys Sundays now.
this confirms for me what Trey Parker and Matt Stone say about Mormons being the perfect subject matter for musicals, because "they always look like they're about to break out in song anyway!"
Holy shit this is weird
Harry Reid is a Democrat and Mormon.. I thought this was pretty cool, though.
This should be a part of the Book of Mormon Musical. Andrew Rannels should do this.
Don't worry.. if you choose to not get baptized they'll get ya after you're dead.
where do you think i'm going?
Boise?
I love it!!! Anybody else????!!!!????!!???
Kaylee Winn I love it, too!
Love it
Meeeeee
are you really Mormons or are you making fun of Mormons?
TyeDye Studios they are really Mormons
they are really mormons!!!
Cause I'm a Mormon!
I'm glad I left this "church".
Since you asked politely. I'll answer. But please my mind has been made up years ago on this matter. The church is false.
I'm happy that you love the church and that it brings you peace.
This has got to be the most polite youtube conversation ever.
Just to show everyone that ex mormons can leave the church gracefully and co-exist. Besides a silver medal (the lower kingdoms), and Bronze are still medals. lol.
i understand and appreciate the way they struggle in their faith, but the stupid idea "they are the only correct church" , destroys their believing to the most of us.
XD
ME:am i ready
OTHER PPL:MISSIONS ARE THE BEST
ME:ok ill go on one
OTHER PPL: NO YOUR NOT READY U AREN'T A MORNING PERSON YOU DONT EVEN LIKE READING!
ME: thx for the boost of confidence now im not sure if i should go on a mission when im older
OTHER PPL : YAY YOUR GOING?
ME: after 2 years of college probably
Hope this helps all anti-Mormons
A brief look at polygamy in the Old Testament:
Let us look at some of the verses from the Old Testament that allow polygamy:
In Exodus 21:10, a man can marry an infinite amount of women without any limits to how many he can marry.
In 2 Samuel 5:13; 1 Chronicles 3:1-9, 14:3, King David had six wives and numerous concubines.
In 1 Kings 11:3, King Solomon had 700 wives and 300 concubines.
In 2 Chronicles 11:21, King Solomon's son Rehoboam had 18 wives and 60 concubines.
In Deuteronomy 21:15 "If a man has two wives, and he loves one but not the other, and both bear him sons...."
There are a lot more verses from the Old Testament that allow polygamy, but I think that the above are sufficient enough to prove my point.
My seminary class made a video called Seminary Ball, its super awesome and I'd love for you to watch it! Thank you for your time
MORMONS WILL TRY TO BUY THEIR WAY INTO HEAVEN!
2 Nephi 25:23 "Grace comes only after all you can do."
Mormons cant even figure out the Grace of Jesus let
alone the Trinity or anything else for that matter!
7 May, 1838. James G. Marsh, 14-year-old son of the president of the Quorum of Twelve, dies. The Elder's Journal issue of July notes that at age nine this boy 'had a remarkable vision, in which he talked with the Father and many of the ancient prophets face to face, and beheld the Son of God coming in his glory.' No publication at this time had yet referred to Smith's vision of the Father and the Son.

I love The church Of Jesus Christ Of later day saints I am apperently A golden investigator Acording to The missonaries I follow The Word Of wisdom and all other rules I find I Know this is The true church but I cant Get babtized my parents wont allow it
Tone and energy of the voice was not matching of the instrumental. There were funny scenes like the dogs chasing y’ all, but the camera work could have been a lot better as well. Too many still shots of stuff. 4/10.
i am a mormon too and from my hard situations i learnt rather becoming a spiritual missionary serve lord practically deeds is everything if been serving as missionary and learning corrupt modern sc medical treatment skills for your own financial growth thats not worthy rather becoming a missionary i would love to serve the special needs from all sectors as a music facilitator thats serving lord jesus practically i can give them music therapy just skills im music im required to learn rather than certification
HAHA I was sposed to be in this but showed up late
my USMC Drill Insuctors are more friendly and nice on day 1 and whe they talk they made far very much a lot highly much more sense too.and they always spoke the truth not a mish mash version of the Holy Gospel.
I love the parody of "Royals"

"Vote ROMNEY maybe?" Wow. Permanently archived in youTube. Mormon Moment, indeed.
Cool gays

hahahaha so dumb i love it damn laughing hard
Love the original song and this parody😁 As for the gospel, I love the original one, Christ coming to earth to die for our sins. I'll leave it at that.
To all the triggered mormons in the comments people don't hate you they're just saying this is really cringe and I'm sorry but I have to agree
Giong cua ac nay nghe hay hay ...lam ca sy di ac ;)

What an easy question to answer! I would probably laugh - for it is a funny question - and reply, "Yours, of course! A baptismal service is hard to throw together over night. We have to work with the congregation to schedule it, and more importantly, we have will continue to work with you so that you are prepared to make this kind of promise with God. You just told us you want to be baptized. The whole time we have been teaching you we have been thinking and praying about you, asking God to help us know what we should do to help you follow Jesus Christ. We feel that you can be ready to make that covenant by [whatever day]. If you want to do it on that day then this plan will work perfectly. But we don't want to do it before you are ready. How do you feel about the [whatever day]?"
Maybe they would like that day; maybe they would not. It doesn't matter really. What matters is that they know why a missionary is asking them to be baptized.
It may sound kind of hollow online, but I would be glad to say these things in real life - because they would be true! We would be thinking and praying and pondering over the people we would teach. People can tell when you are manipulating them. They know when you are not sincere. But they also know when you truly love them and they can tell when you are asking things of them because you want them to be happy. They might not *know* that you cried on your bedside for their sakes the night before, but they can *feel* it. And it is this feeling that matters.
So go ahead and as that question Mr. Pratt. I am not a fan of those who try to diffuse the Spirit by carefully crafted logical traps - this is not how God works.* But I suppose the missionary's answer will show well enough if they are worthy of their calling or if they are still learning why the gospel is preached.
*Paul states beautifully what we should look for in any who claim to preach God's word: "My message and my preaching were not with wise and persuasive words, but with a demonstration of the Spirit’s power"
***** Wrong! Endowment sessions are available to single adults as well, my sister is taking her session soon and my best friend took hers, along with 6 others I am friends with none of which are married. Women learn they are subservient? Hahaha wow so that is what they are typing up in anti-mormon literature now-a-days. Please do tell how many Initiatories and Endowment Sessions you have gone through?
where can i get this song on mp3???
And then we want our 10% of your gross income. 💰💰💰
I'm jewish so I need help understanding why Mormon missionaries knock on people's doors, this is a ligit question not an insult
The fact I know god isn’t real but, I still watch this. Lmao
DALLIN H OAKS. [Mormon ]
Quote. It is wrong to criticise leader's, Even if the criticism is true.?
.......................................................................................................................
If you want to join up with the Mormons, I have a suggestion-
When the missionaries invite you to be baptized, they will say, "We are holding a baptismal service on (date). Will you prepare yourself to follow the example of Jesus Christ by being baptized on that date?" Before you say yes, don't pass up asking,"Elders would you ever lie to me?" Then ask who is being baptized at the service they said they were having on that specific date. Tell them that misleading sales tactics are still lies.
--> is their official church upon the earth led currently by the 15 men they want/put there. There's lots of other things I know and countless things I just believe, and much of it was learned in the temple which is at least 99% about more than the mechanics you described -- which I suspect IMO is what many LDS people get from attending (the 1% repetitive, symbolic mechanics). Bored and distracted versus, as advised, alert and attentive. The temple is an incredible, wonderful place.
Washed clean and renewed every Sunday. The thing about getting personal revelation is that you then know certain things while you believe and hope to learn other things. Among the things I know is that God the Father exists, He sent His Son Jesus Christ (a very real historical person) who worked out the Atonement for us (which I don't completely understand), they both care about us (you, me, everyone else), they did indeed appear to Joseph Smith as he said they did and this, the LDS Church -->
So you did go through the temple and make promises you've obviously not kept. Hope you're not a lawyer or a doctor being expected to maintain client/patient confidentiality; nor would I want to go into business with you. You can't keep your word. And no, it doesn't matter what you think of the temple now or of being LDS -- false or true. You took an oath. You broke it. Serious character defect.
Rather flippant synopsis. Like you said, info available on a website. Had you actually taken that oath (you didn't did you, with the whole slit your body thing?), regardless of whether you have changed your mind or no longer consider these things sacred, that would indicate you can't keep your word. That is what an oath is. My theory is regarding those who have only this cursory information to reveal, is that they never really discover what the temple is really about. God is wise that way.
Zik689 and anyone else who is confused by our religion is welcome in our church at any time and can check out LDS.org if they have further questions. I'm only 13, but I have a strong testimony that this church is true. I know that we are all brothers and sisters in heaven, and that Jesus is our Heavenly Father's son. I also know that all the prophets are true prophets of god and that the Book of Mormon is true. I say these things in the name of Jesus Christ, amen.
