What It Means To Know Christ

A man passed away and was resurrected and waiting in a room to be 
interviewed. Another man was ahead of him. The door opened, the man entered,

the door closed. The man on the outside could hear the conversation on the 
other side of the door. The interviewer began: "I want you to tell me what 
you know about Jesus Christ."

"Well, He was born of a virgin in Bethlehem; He lived 33 years, spending the

last 3 in His ministry organizing His church, choosing His apostles to 
direct it, giving the gospel to direct our lives."

The interviewer stopped him and said: "Yes, yes, that's all true, but I want
you to tell me what you know about Jesus Christ."

"Well, He was tortured and crucified that we might have eternal life. Three
days later He was resurrected that we might return to Heavenly Father."

"Yes, yes, that is true, but I want you to tell me what you know about Jesus
Christ." The man, a little perplexed, again began: "Well, He restored the
Gospel in its fulness to the earth through Joseph Smith, reorganized His
Church, gave us temples wherein we might do work to save our dead. He gave
us family prayer and family home evening where we might unite with our
families. He gave us the Priesthood to heal the sick and personal ordinances
for our salvation and exaltation."

The interviewer again stopped him and said: "All of what you have said to me
is true." The man was then invited to leave the room. After he left the door
opened and the second man entered. As he approached the interviewer he fell
upon his knees and cried, "My Lord, My God."
