“He says in the ninth section of the Doctrine and Covenants simply: ‘But, behold, I say unto you, that you must study it out in your mind; then you must ask me if it be right, and if it is right I will cause that your bosom shall burn within you; therefore, you shall feel that it is right.’ (V. 8.)
“The words ‘you shall feel that it is right’ refer to a feeling of peace and warmth, a feeling that touches the soul. . . . It is a feeling that is unique in its peace and joy because it emanates from Jesus Christ. It is that feeling which brings a greater knowledge and a more sure witness than even flesh and bones” (Loren C. Dunn, in Conference Report, Apr. 1977, p. 43; or Ensign, May 1977, p. 31).
