The Truth About You
January 14th, 2026

Have you ever felt that your life is meaningless, that you’re merely an accident of the universe with no purpose? Or that because you don’t meet the standards of having a high-paying job, having a nice car, or being good-looking, you’re not valuable? That’s exactly what our culture often tells us—but that isn’t the truth about you.

你是否曾經覺得自己的人生毫無意義，只是宇宙中的一場偶然，沒有任何目的？又或者因為自己沒有符合所謂「成功」的標準——像是高薪的工作、體面的車子，或是出眾的外表——就覺得自己沒有價值？這正是我們的文化常常傳達給我們的訊息，但那並不是關於你的真實事實。

The truth about you is that you are of infinite value, because of who you are, and not what you do or what you've achieved. And who are you? A masterpiece who has been "fearfully and wonderfully made" by the creator of the universe! Let's read King David's song to God and learn what God is telling us:

關於你的真實是：你的價值是無限的，因為你是誰，而不是因為你做了什麼，或你達成了什麼成就。那你是誰呢？你是宇宙的創造者所創造的傑作，是「奇妙可畏地被造」的人！讓我們來讀大衛王向神所唱的詩，並學習神要告訴我們的話：

For you formed my inward parts;

   you knitted me together in my mother's womb.

I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.

Wonderful are your works;

   my soul knows it very well.

My frame was not hidden from you,

when I was being made in secret,

   intricately woven in the depths of the earth.

Your eyes saw my unformed substance;

in your book were written, every one of them,

   the days that were formed for me,

   when as yet there was none of them.

我的肺腑是你所造的；

我在母腹中，你已覆庇我。

我要稱謝你，

因我受造奇妙可畏；

你的作為奇妙，

這是我心深知道的。

我在暗中受造，

在地的深處被聯絡；

那時，我的形體並不向你隱藏。

我未成形的體質，

你的眼早已看見了；

你所定的日子，

我尚未度一日，

你都寫在你的冊上了。

Psalm 139:13-16 / 詩篇 139:13–16

Let's cling to the truth and remember to speak it over ourselves, our spouse, our children, our family members, and everyone who needs to know how very, very special they are in God's eyes.

讓我們緊緊持守這個真理，並且常常提醒自己，也對我們的配偶、孩子、家人，以及所有需要知道自己在神眼中何等珍貴的人，把這真理說出來。

Verses about Jesus to share with Mormons

If Mormon/"Latter Day Saint" missionaries approach you, press them on whether they think Jesus is God, with the Father and the Holy Spirit. They don't. This is despite the fact that Jesus and the New Testament are both very clear on who and what Jesus is.

When he saw Jesus back from the dead, Doubting Thomas declared "My Lord and my God!” (John 20:28). Paul declares that Jesus is "God over all" (Romans 9:5), and both Peter and Titus write of "our God and Savior Jesus Christ" (2 Peter 1:1; Titus 2:13). Jesus himself says: “Have I been with you so long, and you still do not know me, Philip? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’?" (John 14:9).

All of this on top of Jesus claiming the same infinite reality and status as God in the Old Testament (Exodus 3:14; John 8:58), forgiving sins (Mark 2:5–7), declaring primacy over the Jewish Law (Matt. 5:17-45), and accepting worship of him (Matt. 14:33; John 9:38) - all of which can only be expected from God Himself.

So before Mormons ask you to "open your heart" and to pray and ask God to tell whether you the Book of Mormon is true, ask them why they feel the need to contradict Jesus himself and God's Word in the New Testament.

Ask them to read the New Testament themselves, and humbly ask Jesus to show them who He is.
