Beliefs & Doctrine

Personal Revelation

  1. Guidance and answers received directly from God by an individual for their own life, through the Holy Ghost.

Latter-day Saints believe everyone can receive personal revelation — for decisions, comfort, and testimony. It is bounded by stewardship: it comes for oneself and one's own responsibilities, not to direct the whole Church.
