Scripture Blog

This weblog is my personal online scripture journal. I try to read the scriptures each morning as I exercise on my cross-trainer. It has a great impact on my life and my testimony of the Savior and his restored church. The journal is really for my own benefit but I have set it up as a web log in hopes to benefit anyone else that may be interested. "For he that diligently seeketh shall find; and the mysteries of God shall be unfolded unto them, by the power of the Holy Ghost..." 1 Nephi 10:19

John 1

 The KJV of the Bible is written that- 

"John bare record, saying, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it abode upon him.

33 And I knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize with water, the same said unto me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, the same is he which baptizeth with the Holy Ghost."  (John 1:32–33)

The Prophet Joseph Smith corrected - 

"JST John 1:32 And I knew him; for he who sent me …"  (John 1:33 note a)

Obviously, John knew Jesus because they were related.  It is hard to believe that they never met.

the Prophet also corrected verse 51 with "Son of Man" meaning Son of Man of Holiness.
