Testimony is a declaration of the things you have come to know through he who testifies of all truth, the Holy Ghost.
Doctrines studied and practiced with the hope that they are indeed God’s word allows us the gift of the Spirit, who testifies to us, strengthening our testimony. This process is known as faith: Hope that some thing’s real, act upon what you know, receive a witness that the thing you hoped for is true.
I know this to be true. By simply following the doctrine, we’ll know it through the spiritual, deep rooted proof that only the Holy Ghost can provide.

This is nice
Short and exact. Hope, then act, and only then do you get a witness; that’s so simple and useful.
Exactly. I loved the talk a while back at conference that said testimony meeting is a time to testify. its not story time or a thank-omy…
I’ll never forget fast and testimony meeting that was held after that talk was said. its amazing what can happen when people follow that councle and just testify of what they know, rather than thanking and telling stories. very cool. havent experienced one like that since then.
