General Conference

Elder Rasband

The restoration of the gospel was well prophesyed of in the scriptures.

Bonnie

Let you light shine that others may see the way to Christ. we shine the light but it is Christ’s light.

Elder Jeffery R Holland

200 years ago we would have hoped to find a more complete gospel. We would have looked for the parental care of God. There would have been doubts of whether Christ had come. We would have looked for another testament of his life. We would have look for the House of the Lord return and scriptures had testified would occur. We would have looked to for the ability to have eternal marriage.

We still have things we hope for. We still have modern plagues. May we hope to cure world hunger.

We have the mandate and hope that all may love God and love their neighbor.

Why should we not hope that righteous desire and sincere desires cannot still be miraculously gained. We should hope for this.

If we lose hope we, when all hope is gone there is nothing.

You must press forward with a perfect brightness of hope!—Nephi

David A Bednar

Our hearts—the sum to total of our desires and what we will become. The purpose of Gods work is to change hearts. The Lord works from the inside out.Ordinance remember and kept open the Heavens into us. We dod not hide in the temples, but rather go there to prepare, be taught, and strengthened to overcome the world.

Temples work is hastening. Brigham Young prophesied we would need 1,000’s of temples.

With the Lord’s counsel and direction we will fulfill these prophesy’s. This later-day work will destroy the darkness.

President Russell M Nelson

We are witnessing live what has been prophecied of for milennia. The Lord Jesus Christ is your Savior. The Prophet Joseph Smith is your prophet.

What does it mean for me that the gospel has been restored?

Most people do not embrace the truths offered up by the Lords prophets.

Elder Gong

Christ is our everything. Among small and simple things great things shall come to pass.

Jean B Bingham

Are we prepared to become united in the inspired ways we can to help the message go forth.

President Eyring

Doctrine Covenants 110 — Read and understand. In relation to our time and work that is to be completed at this time. Temples are critical to the gathering of Israel. The temple work came 7 years prior to Moses opening up the work to gather Israel.

There is much need to be. involved in Family Search. For when ever we solve one problem we open the door for inspiration and improvement.

The desire to serve our ancestors are surely growing.

Sacrifice brings forth blessing we did not see. Every hour and every prayer in preparation brings forth a blessing.

President Oaks

The Priesthood of God, it is the power of God men who hold it are not “the Priesthood.” The church exists the … perpetuate the family organization into the eternities.

If father’s would magnify their priesthood in the their family it would go further than any work they could do elsewhere.

We can fill our lives with light. We should focus on messages of light and truth. We should have an eye single to the glory of God. We should follow the counsel of the Lord and seek to understand the truths of the eternity, if we seek with an eye single to God we shall be blessed with the light and knowledge we seek.

We are called to assist… We are lead by a prophet.

President Nelson

This is Christ’s church, he is at the center of his church.

Elder Soares

The Book of Mormon and the Bible grow together to confound the false doctrines.

John A McUne

Nephi knew he could trust God, with the impossible tasks presented to him. We can trust Christ as Nephi did. As we remain focused on Christ we will be at peace and see God’s miracles whatever their outcome.

We have made covenants with our Heavenly Father. We have made promises to help others come unto Christ. This obligation starts in out homes. Our ability to help other come unto Christ will largely be influenced by our example.

In Lehi’s vision he beconned to his son’s who had gone astray, he called unto them. He did not leave the tree to go after them.

Bishop Causse

The entire good news of the gospel is contained in the image of the Savior at his coming, with arms spread wide inviting all to come unto him. Plain and precious truths

• The atonement of Jesus Christ is a free gift to all
• In addition to our sins he suffered for our sorrows
• Because of Christ we can all overcome the physical death
• Receiving the full benefits of the atonement requires our efforts of having faith in Christ, repenting of our sins, and partake of the saving ordinances.
• We must progress improving continually as we draw closer to being like Him.

When have we last felt the loving influence of the Savior in our lives. Study Him, learn of Him, and become like Him.

Elder Renlund

The atonement is a gift we cannot have provided for ourselves. Every time we partake of the atonement we should reflect upon the sacrifice offered to give us this gift. We should reflect gratefully upon what is offered.

Christ can draw all men unto him, because of his submission to Heavenly Fathers will. We can come unto him and receive of the new heart he offers us. Our testimony of Christ including our testimony of the book of Mormon will allow us to truly reflect upon the gifts he has offered us.

President Nelson

Need to prepare our own personal storehouses with faith, truth, and testimony.

The admonition given to Joseph Smith from Heavenly Father, “This is my beloved Son, hear him.” Is for us as much as as it was for Joseph. 

President Ballard

Shared the combined versions of Joseph Smith’s First Vision records.

Joseph and Hyrum Smith offered up their lives in testimony to the truths of this gospel. How dedicated am I to the gospel of Jesus Christ? What will I give up in order to keep the message moving forward.

James R Rasband

The Savior offers healing through faith and repentance to both those who sin in ignorance and those who sin against what they know to be true (King Benjamin).

Joy D Jones

“The Lord loves effort, and effort brings rewards.” — President Nelson

Niel L Anderson

Remember spiritual defining memories during times of struggles.

Douglas D Holmes

The Lord is trying to help us get the Gospel of Jesus Christ deep into our hearts.

Relationships

We must see others as God does in our relationships.

We must engage in the gospel. Give our heart might mind and strength.

President Eyring

Enos 9 as a model of prayer.
