Dear
Gramps, Some of my friends have suggested that Christ not only appeared in
Israel and America, but also in other places upon this earth. It sounds
logical, but is there any kind of evidence or are there any statements made
by the authorities on this? Thanks! Mathea, from the Netherlands |
Dear
Mathea,
Indeed
the Savior visited other people following his resurrection than those in
Jerusalem and in the land Bountiful. We read the following in 3 Nephi 16:1-3
And
verily, verily, I say unto you that I have other sheep, which are not of this
land, neither of the land of Jerusalem, neither in any parts of that land round
about whither I have been to minister. For they of whom I speak are they who
have not as yet heard my voice; neither have I at any time manifested myself
unto them. But I have received a commandment of the Father that I shall go unto
them, and that they shall hear my voice, and shall be numbered among my sheep,
that there may be one fold and one shepherd; therefore I go to show myself unto
them.
