Nurtured through righteous living, [a] testimony of Jesus
becomes the governing force in all that a person does. Furthermore, it
is
available to everyone, for 'God is no respecter of persons' (Acts
10:34).
"Acquiring such a testimony does not, however, come
without personal effort. One must desire to know, study to learn, live
to
merit, and pray to receive. When so pursued in humility and faith, the
knowledge comes, and with this knowledge comes both the sweet assurance
that all will be well and the inner strength to make it so."

This doesn't help anyone gain a testimony of Joseph Smith, although it make indeed help them gain a testimony of Jesus Christ. The two not being synonymous, of course. And a testimony founded on the words of men is sand-based.

Who Knows.....you're really funny. Yes it is the first Sunday of the Month, good memories I see (kidding). This thread is one of the LDS Gems that was created by the church as a thought of the day, this was the thought for that particular day. So that's the point I guess.

This could work for anything, since the human mind is powerful enough to create any illusion and make it seem true. Here's an example:
Nurtured through righteous living, [a] testimony of Santa Claus
becomes the governing force in all that a person does. Furthermore, it
is
available to everyone, for 'Rudough is no respecter of persons' (Schmo
10:34).
"Acquiring such a testimony does not, however, come
without personal effort. One must desire to know, study to learn, live
to
merit, and send mail to the North Pole to receive. When so pursued in humility and faith, the
knowledge comes, and with this knowledge comes both the sweet assurance
that all will be well, your stocking will be filled, and the inner strength to make it so.
See? I had to barely change anything. I can "know" the reality of Santa. Does this prove Santa's real?
All you've done is post the recipe for deluding yourself.
