By Blood and Testimony
Revelation 12:11
11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.
Elder Richard G. Scott said:
“A strong testimony gives peace, comfort, and assurance. It generates the conviction that as the teachings of the Savior are consistently obeyed, life will be beautiful, the future secure, and there will be capacity to overcome the challenges that cross our path. A testimony grows from understanding truth, distilled from prayer and the pondering of scriptural doctrine. It is nurtured by living those truths in faith and the secure confidence that the promised results will be obtained. . . .
“. . . Your personal security and happiness depend upon the strength of your testimony, for it will guide your actions in times of trial and uncertainty.”
(“The Power of a Strong Testimony,” Ensign, Nov. 2001, 87.)
