Hunter, Howard W. Hunter
  • “As Joseph spoke, William wrote down as much of the sermon as he could in his diary. He was drawn to the profound truths Joseph shared and hungered to know more. William recorded Joseph’s teaching that the knowledge and intelligence people acquired in life rose with them in the Resurrection. If a person gains more knowledge in this life, through his diligence and obedience, than another. Joseph explained, he will have so much the advantage in the world to come.” History, Saints 1:40, United in an Everlasting Covenant
  • “The risen Lord spoke to Mary, and she replied. He was not an apparition. This was not imagination. He was real, as real as He had been in mortal life. He did not permit her to touch Him. He had not yet ascended to His Father in Heaven. That would happen shortly. What a reunion it must have been, to be embraced by the Father, who loved Him and who also must have wept for Him during His hours of agony. He would appear to two men on the road to Emmaus. He would converse with them and eat with them. He would meet with His Apostles behind closed doors and teach them. Thomas was not present on the first occasion. On the second occasion, the Lord invited him to feel of His hands and His side. In utter wonder he exclaimed: My Lord and my God (John 20:28). He spoke with 500 at [another] time. And there is another witness. This biblical companion, the Book of Mormon, testifies that He appeared not only to those of the Old World but also to those of the New. For had He not at one time declared, Other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd? (John 10:16).” Manual, Teachings of the President of the Church: Gordon B Hinkley, Chapter 8, We Look to Christ
