	Testimony - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Testimony may be oral or written, and it is usually made by oath or affirmation under penalty of perjury.
		Unless a witness is testifying as an expert witness, testimony in the form of opinions or inferences is generally limited to those opinions or inferences that are rationally based on the perceptions of the witness and are helpful to a clear understanding of the witness' testimony.
		In Mormonism, testifying is also referred to as "bearing one's testimony," and often involves the sharing of personal experience—ranging from a simple anecdote to an account of personal revelation—followed by a statement of belief that has been confirmed by this experience.

	Book of Mormon - MormonWiki
		The Book of Mormon (properly titled The Book of Mormon: Another Testament of Jesus Christ) is a sacred book of scripture that testifies of Jesus Christ and explains the Lord's dealings with His people in the ancient Americas.

	New Book Examines Controversy Over Childrens Testimony
		While the book focuses on children's testimony in sexual abuse cases, its message is relevant for the entire range of cases involving children as witnesses, including acrimonious custody decisions, neglect proceedings and witnesses to crimes.
		Whenever possible (and as soon as possible) interviews with children in cases where sexual abuse is suspected should be electronically preserved (audio- or videotaped), ideally from the first interview on -- not just transcripts or notes and not just from the point when a child begins to disclose.
		However, they also note that it would be ethically impermissible to interview children in the laboratory as intensively as they have been in real cases, much less to sexually abuse them in the name of science.

	LDS FAQ: Testimony
		The word "testimony," as typically used by LDS people, means one's personal knowledge of the truth of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, including core truths such as the divinity of Jesus Christ, our Savior and Son of God.
		I would be surprised to hear Protestants in general bear testimony based on prayer and spiritual experiences that Martin Luther's doctrine of justification by faith alone was in fact a true and correct interpretation of the Bible.
		I also have received a personal witness that the Book of Mormon is the word of God, as is the Bible, but that spiritual witness continues to be amplified by my intellectual explorations into the text and the evidences of its authenticity.

		After that first Pentecost, the early apostles took to the streets and gave testimony to “what they had seen and heard.” They were “witnesses.” As witnesses, they were arrested, put on trial, hauled before judges and forced to testify to the reason for their illegal actions.
		This book offers a powerful, shining testament of peace and nonviolence to a world of war and violence, a strong and soothing word of hope to a world of despair, a bright spotlight in a world of darkness.
		Dan’s testimony is as good as Gospel witness can be, ranking with the sermons of Martin Luther King, Jr., the Catholic Worker columns of Dorothy Day, the essays of Thomas Merton, the pastoral letters of Oscar Romero and the courtroom statements of his brother Philip Berrigan.

	Music under Soviet rule: The Shostakovich Debate: A Manual for Beginners
		The basis of the book is correct." MacDonald further argued that a contextual approach to Shostakovich (until then largely neglected in Western studies of the composer) emphatically supported the essential authenticity of Testimony.
		At its simplest, revisionism consists of the view that Shostakovich was, for much of his life, in conflict with the Soviet regime; and that, as such, his actions, creative and personal, betoken a man of considerable moral stature whose associated thoughts and feelings are tangible in his music, in ways both general and particular.
		Among such close associates, the view of Shostakovich is generally commensurate with that given in Testimony, although a distinction is often made between the essential veracity of the picture of Shostakovich given in Testimony and the literal authenticity of the book as presented by Solomon Volkov.
