Centered on the living Jesus Christ
The Church of Jesus Christ of the Kingdom of Zion is centered on the living Jesus Christ. It was established to worship God the Father in His name, preserve and teach revealed truth and divine law, administer authorized ordinances, and prepare a covenant people for Zion.
The Church teaches those who already know and love Jesus Christ and desire to give their lives fully to Him. Membership in Zion begins through a personal calling from the Savior, preparation, covenant, and authorized ordinances.
The Living Christ
Jesus Christ is not merely a figure of the past. He lives, reigns, calls, teaches, judges, saves, and prepares His people for His return.
Before the world was, He offered Himself to accomplish the Father’s work of redemption. All authority He possesses was given to Him by the Father, whose will He obeys in perfect love and unity.

Those who are still learning who Jesus Christ is, or who have not yet developed a personal witness and relationship with Him, are encouraged to meet with missionaries from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and begin with the restored gospel of faith, repentance, baptism for the remission of sins, and the gift of the Holy Ghost.
Meet with MissionariesThose who already have a personal witness and relationship with Jesus Christ, desire to follow Him fully, and are willing to give their lives over to Him may read and study the public teachings of this Church. The first required reading for anyone seeking membership is the Doctrine of the Law. Studying does not make a person a member or establish a divine calling. Jesus Christ must personally call the person, after which the Church follows the required process of teaching, preparation, interviews, and confirmation through the prophet.
