Principles and Doctrines: Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ is essential to spiritual growth.

This principle is perhaps the most important when considering what it takes to gain and maintain a strong and truth personal testimony of Jesus Christ's atonement, and the restoration of the gospel. One of the most effective tools for missionary work is the teachings of genuine faith in Jesus Christ. If we can keep our faith in Jesus Christ, and endure to the end, we will be blessed.

Supporting Scriptures:

1 Nephi 7:12-The Lord can and will do all things for the benefit of His children, but the only requirement of us is that we have to possess faith in Him.

Alma 37:33-One gift from having faith is the ability to resist temptation of the adversary.

Inspirational Writings:

Faith in Jesus Christ is more than mere acknowledgement that He lives. It is the firm, burning belief that He lives, died for us, and wants the very best for us. He went through the same things we are going through so no matter what, we can always turn to Him when we are going through a rough spot in our life and through the faith we possess, we will always be ok and blessed.
