I worship, love and adore the Savior [SD]

Saundra, you may love Jesus, but are you IN LOVE with Him?

IS Jesus your all in all, truly the Lord of your entire life?

Is He more important to you than your friends?

your family?

the LDS church?

Joseph Smith?

the Book of Mormon?

Temple oaths and rituals you have taken?

The idea of modern "prophets and apostles?

If He is, then do away with all of those things. They do not draw people closer to Jesus, they keep people from a true, personal relationship with Him.

No "church" can save or bring you closer to Jesus. Making Him the Lord of your life means having a relationship directly with Him, not relying on a church or ordinances or 'good works' to bring you closer to Him.

John 6:29-29 - Then they asked him, "What must we do to do the works God requires?" Jesus answered, "The work of God is this: to believe in the one he has sent."
