As a convert of the LDS church for over 30 years, I always had something in the back of my mind. What did Joseph Smith know that he wasn’t revealing? I was intrigued because he told the members that if he revealed all that he knew (about the mysteries of God), they would rise and kill him. What did he know?
Another thing on my mind was hoping we would receive The Sealed Portion and the meaning of John’s book Revelation as we were promised in the Book of Mormon. I also wondered what was in the 116-page manuscript of Lehi’s words. I also prayed for more truth to lift any layers of darkness off my mind.
Around 2012 or 13, when we lived in Colorado, a member told a group in our ward that there was an elderly woman in Utah who was being conned. The Sealed Portion was mentioned, but I tuned it out because it was all said in a derogatory way. I felt this woman was being gossiped about and being treated unfairly. I was curious to know the truth about her, so I kept the thought of this woman in the back of my mind.
In 2016, after reading in the Book of Mormon, I again started wondering about the sealed part of the Book of Mormon, and the writings of John that we were supposed to receive in these latter-days. I searched for the sealed part of the Book of Mormon, but all I found were books claiming the title but making no sense. I remembered the elderly Utah woman and felt if I could find her, I would find this book. I did not know her name but searched for things like “elderly woman finds sealed portion of Book of Mormon.” I found out her name was Ida Smith!
The information on her was so exciting. There were many videos where she explained how she found The Sealed Portion, Christopher, and these many wonderful books. I was delighted to see that she was nothing like the gossip that was being said about her. She possessed remarkable mental clarity remembering names, dates, and intricate stories from her past. Ida was a respected leader who held high positions in the LDS church and at Brigham Young University. After standing behind The Sealed Portion and Christopher, she had lifelong friends turn on her, men who held high positions in the LDS church and in the government of Utah. I could not understand why they would not give her the benefit of the doubt and try to see things from her perspective. Instead, the LDS church excommunicated her and turned against her. I loved how brave she was when faced with all this criticism. She became my hero as I watched all the interviews and other videos with Ida and read about her. She boldly stood up for The Sealed Portion, Christopher as a True Messenger, The Humanity Party, and all Real Truth being revealed.
After reading The Sealed Portion and Real Truth books and learning from Christopher online, I finally found common-sense answers to many questions about life and what our purpose is in being here on this earth. After reading The Sealed Portion, I grasped that I was following a religion rather than the simple gospel of Christ. I realized that the Book of Mormon was teaching this all along, but I overlooked it! I missed it because of the religious teachings that were overpowering this simple message, and I needed a True Messenger to show me. I found John’s Revelation revealed as we were promised, and I’m finally understanding Isaiah, the entire Book of Mormon, Matthew 5-7, and why Joseph Smith created the temple endowment. I finally know what true peace means. My life started to take on new meaning.
I realized I had been trying to find value in religion instead of simply treating others the way I wanted to be treated. For instance, we have poor among us because there was never a solution until now. That’s why I call myself a supporter of “The Humanity Party” and Christopher, because he has presented the only plan that will eliminate poverty. I’m still learning many ways about how my life can affect others. I’m trying to be a kinder person like Christopher constantly teaches. Everything he teaches makes perfect sense. I’ve never found a better explanation of who we are, what we are, why we are here, and what this Universe is for. Nothing makes me happier than learning the Real Truth from Christopher.
