This verse, in many ways, is the key to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. It describes the moment that God, the Father, and His son, Jesus Christ, appeared to the boy Joseph Smith in the woods near his home in Palmyra, New York, in a place we now call, “The Sacred Grove”.
This one moment expresses so many of our core doctrines and beliefs.
- That God wants to communicate with his children, and does so through prophets, in all times and ages.
- That God and Jesus are separate individuals that work together as one.
- That God and Jesus are both physical beings with omnipotent reach.
Such a defining event expressed on a game card should be huge, right? it should be a game changer. So, to be able to drop a bunch of histories icons on single chapter in one turn can really change it up. That’s plenty powerful, to be sure. Then, to be able to quote it and play it for free, well, that just takes it over the top. That’s why it’s also Unique. It only happens once in a game.
Just like the event itself.
