General Conference, October 1926, p. 97 “Columbus built better than he knew. Wycliff, Luther, the reformers, explorers and conquerors all, as well as the founders of this nation, did likewise. And even the Latter-day Saints, with all their knowledge of divine plans and purposes, revealed from Heaven to enable them to execute another phase of God’s ““marvelous work and wonder,”” have no adequate conception of its future greatness and glory.” — Orson F.

General Conference, ‘Scriptural Witnesses’, October 2007 “…Scriptures of the Restoration do not compete with the Bible; they complement the Bible. … To doubters of that second witness—the Book of Mormon—the Lord issued a warning: “Because you have treated lightly the things you have received … [you] shall remain under … condemnation until [you] repent and remember … the Book of Mormon and the former commandments which I have given …, [the Bible, and] … do according to that which I have written.”21 — Russell Nelson (more…)

Mormon Priesthood and Psychics

TheChurchNews.com Conference Talk Summaries PDF “Being even more effective in priesthood service comes by understanding why individuals are given the priesthood. The purpose for receiving the priesthood is to allow them to bless people for the Lord, doing so in His name. Priesthood service is given out of love, and the Lord blesses service given in His name.
The key to serving and blessing others in His name is praying that the people feel the Lord’s love through one’s loving service. When giving a priesthood blessing, pray to know what blessing the Lord has in store. Ask to know how He wants to bless that person, not what others want.
“My experience is that even when the blessing is not what the others desire for themselves or their loved one, the Spirit touches hearts to experience acceptance and comfort rather than disappointment.” Magnifying priesthood service depends on one’s diligence in seeking the Lord’s will and voice. That magnification may come slowly, but it will come.” — Henry Eyring (more…)

General Conference, ‘Hearts Knit Together’, April 2021 “The Lord expects us to teach that inclusion is a positive means toward unity and that exclusion leads to division.
As followers of Jesus Christ, we are dismayed when we hear of how children of God are mistreated based on their race. We have been heartbroken to hear of recent attacks on people who are Black, Asian, Latino, or of any other group. Prejudice, racial tension, or violence should never have any place in our neighborhoods, communities, or within the Church. Let each of us, no matter our age, strive to be our best.” — Gary E.

Conference Quote: Knowing v. Knowing About Jesus
Posted in General Conference April 2021, tagged April 2021 “, ‘Our Personal Savior’, General Conference, Michael John U Teh on 05/11/2021| 5 Comments »
James 2:19 “Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble.”
Today we’re looking at a few things from a talk given by one of the Church’s General Authorities, Michael John U Teh. The reason his talk caught our attention was because of the subject matter. Mr. Teh laid a heavy emphasis on knowing Jesus vs. knowing about Him, alas, his talk created more confusion than direction.
You can read his talk in full at General Conference, ‘Our Personal Savior’, April 2021.
We’ve listed his comment/s followed by our observations.
First, recognize “knowing the Savior is the most important pursuit of our lives. It should take priority over anything else.”

Exodus 20:13 “Thou shalt not kill.” — Sixth Commandment
Today we’re looking at another part of a talk given by Neil Andersen at the latest General Conference. One of the important things of his speech is actually what he left out…
General Conference, ‘The Personal Journey of a Child of God’, April 2021 “We Know about Life before Birth
Our eternal perspective not only enlarges our understanding of those who are continuing their journey beyond mortality but also opens our understanding of those who are earlier in their journey and just now entering mortality.
Each person who comes to earth is a unique son or daughter of God.
Our personal journey did not begin at birth. Before we were born, we were together in a world of preparation where we “received [our] first lessons in the world of spirits.” …
As covenant children of God, we love, honor, nurture, safeguard, and welcome those spirits who are coming from the premortal world. …
The Sacred Responsibility of Safeguarding Life
Years ago…Gordon B. Hinckley…said: “…Abortion is an evil, stark and real and repugnant, which is sweeping over the earth. I plead with the women of this Church to shun it, to stand above it, to stay away from those compromising situations which make it appear desirable. There may be some few circumstances under which it can occur, but they are extremely limited.10…” — Neil L. Andersen (more…)

Our personal journey did not begin at birth. … As covenant children of God, we love, honor, nurture, safeguard, and welcome those spirits who are coming from the premortal world. …
The Sacred Decision to Have a Child
It is concerning that even in some of the most prosperous countries of the world, fewer children are being born. “God’s commandment for His children to multiply and replenish the earth remains in force.”
…remember that each spirit child of God is coming to earth on his or her own personal journey…As you receive these precious children in the Savior’s name… I promise you that the Lord will bless you and shower His love and approval upon you.” — Neil L. Andersen (more…)
Conference Lie: Sincere Repentance Brings Freedom from Sin

General Conference, ‘Jesus Christ: The Caregiver of Our Soul’, April 2021 “Through Jesus Christ and His atoning sacrifice, we can experience a mighty change of mind and heart, bringing a fresh attitude, both toward God and toward life in general. When we sincerely repent of our sins and turn our hearts and will to God and His commandments, we can receive His forgiveness and feel the influence of His Holy Spirit in greater abundance. Mercifully, we avoid having to experience the depth of suffering the Savior endured. …
My dear friends, I testify to you that as we genuinely repent of our sins, we allow the atoning sacrifice of Christ to become wholly effective in our life. We will become free from the bondage of sin, find joy in our earthly journey, and become eligible to receive eternal salvation, which was prepared from the foundation of the world for all who believe in Jesus Christ and come unto Him.” — Ulisses Soares [emp. added] (more…)

General Conference, ‘Defending Our Divinely Inspired Constitution’, April 2021 “Because of the many threats that undermine the principles of the Constitution, Latter-day Saints have a unique responsibility to uphold and defend the U.S. Constitution by praying for the Lord to guide and bless all nations and their leaders.
Learn and advocate the principles of the Constitution by seeking out wise and good persons and be knowledgeable citizens.
“No party, platform or individual candidate can satisfy all personal preferences. Each citizen must therefore decide which issues are most important to him or her at any particular time.
Then, members should seek inspiration on how to exercise their influence according to their individual priorities. This process will not be easy.” — Dallin H. Oaks (more…)

It is a time when they are innocent and sin free. It is a sacred time for parent and child.

mirrors the choices and contributions of those who are on the path. You might say they reap the blessings of walking a “covenant-consistent” path. What, then, is the difference of the covenant path?
Actually, the difference is uniquely and eternally significant. It includes the nature of our obedience, the character of God’s commitment to us, the divine help we receive, the blessings tied to gathering as a covenant people, and most importantly, our eternal inheritance.” — D.
