It is not possible for me to hear this glorious talk too many times. It never fails to point me toward a higher, holier plane of thought, understanding, duty, and action. How marvelous these principals are! Thank You President Hinckley and President Benson.
It’s hard to be humble when you’re as great as I am. I was like 16 when my sister gave me that plaque. It has been a constant reminder of of how she felt about me. That is and has been very humbling to me all these years later. I am now 57
It is not possible to listen to these words and not recognize Ezra Taft Benson as a prophet of God. This timeless message is among the greatest sermons in Church history.
I didnt even realize how bad pride was or even the many difrent faces of pride this video is life changing i dont wanna be that person anymore. I give thanks to our Lord heavenly Father for revealing this to me and many other things i am doing wrong and for the mighty changes of heart still the start of a new journey and many challendges ahead as for me amd my house we will serve the lord.Amen
I must agree. I thought of myself as a Loser most of my life. The principles in this talk if followed can lift you up or humble you depending on the corrections you need in your life.
Listening to this talk and thinking of the phrase that the world uses, "Pride month". It is very enlightening and makes so much more sense. Truth is truth.
In the last few days I have studied this and listened to this talk multiple times. Powerful and true. At first I was convicted by this in every sentence. I was so convinced that I felt a need to speak to my Bishop for council. I must say that I am resolved to repent of this sin as it has been the root to my unhappiness for years. I ponder all of the sadness that this sin has caused and how much sadness I have caused, but true to the Gospel of Jesus Christ, there is a way to correct this great evil. Thank You President Benson for having the inspiration for this talk. A true voice from the dust that resonates throughout eternity. God bless us all that we might repent of this and may the Saviors love replace this sin of pride.
After much searching, my aunt offered this talk to my counsel. God has called with this talk and I will be baptized and join the LDS church. I feel so fortunate and loved. All things through Christ.
I absolutely love Pres Benson and Pres Hinckley! Humility to God has led me to understand how life is full of joy and hope even in troubled times! Pride leads to misery ALWAYS!
I must agree with the heart-felt comments. I thought of myself as a Loser most of my life. The principles in this talk if followed can lift you up or humble you depending on the corrections you need in your life. I've found this prophetic warning useful whether I need a boost out of lies that I have no value, or if I need my "wings clipped" when I start taking for granted the huge (I mean HUGE) blessings in my life instead of giving daily thanks. Here's a HUGE thanks to all who heed the prophet's voice and elevate The Team so we are successful in the playoffs as we approach The Second Coming...
"Pride says: if you succeed - I will fail" - pure true. This talk is one of the greatest, so helpful, mind-opening knowledge. I wish to remember this talk and never forget it. I love President Hinckley!
When I feel I’m out of step. I listen to this talk and feel the need to humble myself and be more child like. President Benson delivered so many wonderful talks on several subjects that are very relevant in 2021.
I don’t know why President Benson chose to have President Hinckley read the talk, but the vicarious reading has a profound effect for me, as if to say that this talk was written for no man’s glory, but instead for us to learn the will of God.
I think president Benson might have been in his latter years were his helth was taught for him to speak and later he was not always going to be attending General conference
Further proof that Gordon B. Hinckley was and still is a prophet. I am going to listen to this talk until it is embedded in my heart, mind and soul. Lots of work to align my will to Heavenly Father's will. Grateful beyond words for this amazing man, and God's love in allowing us to hear this inspired message.
Ernest Hemple He truly was a wonderful man and prophet. A reminder, however, that this talk was not Gordon B. Hinckley's, but President Ezra Taft Benson's. Because of President Benson's health, he asked that President Hinckley read it for him. This is mentioned at the very beginning at :05 and restated at :29 by President Hinckley. Regardless, both are remarkable men, and truly prophets of the Lord. A talk to take to heart and remember as much today as ever. :)
Remember our beloved prophet Ezra Taft Benson wrote it he was ill but there and he asked our beloved prophet hinckley to speak for him. I loved them both and still do
This is so rich and wise and true. I believe and witness this discourse to be of God and very revealing! May we examine ourselves carefully with the standards here given!
One of the best talks ever given by a Prophet of God. Pride is the root cause of all other sins. I need to always be reminded of this sin as it is the cause of most of my problems.
I listen to and read this talk written by Ezra Taft Benson often. The antithesis of pride is humility. Humility to me is the key to exaltation. Personally I don't believe a greater discourse has ever been given in a conference address.
Whoa, I've read this talk a million times (I was 5 when it was delivered), but didn't realize that Gordon B Hinckley actually delivered it on President Benson's behalf.
This is from the April 1989 Conference - 31 Years ago. When you see the tone and tenor of the political conversation in this country it does not speak well of progress in this area.
Elements vs. the central feature - emnity towards God We pit our will against God. Wow, when understood in this context, my sin is great. Im such a prideful person I need to be reminded frequently, and I come back to this talk.
This is an amazing talk. It brings awareness of the various forms of pride. None of us are immune, and we would do well to find where we are prideful in our lives and coose to humble ourselves.
Written more than 30 yrs ago & he described what happened in the "summer of love 2020". Gentle reader, God bless you, Jesus and an invisible network of angelic & celestial beings surround you, guide you & protect you. In Jesus Holy Name, Amen!
I have been praying to know how I can be more truthful with my repentance. I love this precious message and I’m thankful for these timeless holy truths which have the power to search many corners of my heart for understanding even the smallest enmity I’ve been harbouring towards others. I can continue in repentance it is a joyful relief Johanna
I love the late President Gordon B. Hinkley. Thank for the reminder of pride. As we all know, as of late the church has mildly excepted the “pride “ community. I feel this is in reference to the leadership of the church. My interpretation. Rest in Peace. Your words are always appreciated. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I so much appreciate this talk. I need to be reminded of this constantly, and this talk hits everything right where it needs to be for me. So thankful for our prophets!
Love this talk. It has definitely helped me take a more introspective view of myself. I think I first read this talk when introduced to it by Elder Goodman.
Studying my Book of Mormon. I was wondering about Zenif and how he was described on many occassions as being overzealous. So did a search to understand what they meant by this and this is the first talk that pops up. Now, I realize I too could have been or still be a Zenif.
"They withhold forgiveness to keep another in their debt" ugly sin of pride. I have brother who will not speak to me for something I said but will not tell me what it is that I said. I miss him😟 I heard this from another brother.
There are 2 churches only, the Church of the Lamb and the Church of the Devil, or the humble vs the proud. I see how pride has affected many areas of my life and I am truly working to repent of it. This is more than a talk. It is the mind and will of the Lord, as spoken through His Prophet. It is scripture and we will do well to hearken to it's counsels.
Sometimes we resent others for putting us down…sometimes we blame the Lord for not stopping someone from doing us harm…what is the key to getting away from this? And even more….when will it stop? A person can only take so much.
Four future presidents of the church were present in this meeting, President Hunter, President Hinckley, President Monson, and President Nelson...and maybe one more, President Oaks.

Amen!! Agreed!
I now recognize the root of all my problems - I'm prideful. Such a great talk. I recognize what I need to do to change.
me too, and I thought I was humble.
@@EMonzon me too, but knew I wasn't. Its been a struggle for me before God. It keeps me off my knees.
It is the universal sin. We all have it and it is a constant battle to keep it at bay. And how do we combat it? We develop and nurture Charity.
We all are
It’s hard to be humble when you’re as great as I am. I was like 16 when my sister gave me that plaque. It has been a constant reminder of of how she felt about me. That is and has been very humbling to me all these years later. I am now 57

Your change of heart here is inspiring.
So brave. 😮
"we must cleanse the inner vessel by conquering pride"
❤️🤍🖤💛
Amen
This is a timeless talk in Church history that every member should be familiar with and study.
I miss President Hinckley! What a great example of humility. A great reminder that pride can exist everywhere. Even from the "bottom looking up".
It’s so sad that Pride can destroyed everything even beautiful families. I hope people can reconsider to be more humble to each other.
This may just be the greatest sermon of this dispensation.
I must agree. I thought of myself as a Loser most of my life. The principles in this talk if followed can lift you up or humble you depending on the corrections you need in your life.
@@eileenwhite4800I’m still in the same boat.. where/how did you find success in overcoming?
Perfect lesson for mankind. but most importantly for me.
Listening to this talk and thinking of the phrase that the world uses, "Pride month". It is very enlightening and makes so much more sense. Truth is truth.

How is the process going Justin? What helped you to realize this Sin? What are some antidotes you have used for this 🤔 adjustment?
When I was 8 years old I asked to shake the hand of president. Mom replied with a letter to me after his death. So…. Yeah it’s on me as I write.
Amen!
After much searching, my aunt offered this talk to my counsel. God has called with this talk and I will be baptized and join the LDS church. I feel so fortunate and loved. All things through Christ.
Welcome! It warms my heart to hear another has been touched by God's loving arm.
What a great reminder, thank you President Hinckley...

AMEN 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🫂
President Benson was a dedicated farmer, patriot, and statesman who became God’s prophet. What an amazing message on pride.
"Pride says: if you succeed - I will fail" - pure true. This talk is one of the greatest, so helpful, mind-opening knowledge. I wish to remember this talk and never forget it. I love President Hinckley!
I love this talk too, it was President Bensons talk, however, GBH was just reading it for him.
When I feel I’m out of step. I listen to this talk and feel the need to humble myself and be more child like. President Benson delivered so many wonderful talks on several subjects that are very relevant in 2021.
timeless message the world needs now perhaps more than ever
Cheryl Compton Hey Cheryl! I know you! 😄 This is so true!
I don’t know why President Benson chose to have President Hinckley read the talk, but the vicarious reading has a profound effect for me, as if to say that this talk was written for no man’s glory, but instead for us to learn the will of God.
I think president Benson might have been in his latter years were his helth was taught for him to speak and later he was not always going to be attending General conference
@@jeppajeppson2900he said that at the beginning
He had several strokes that prevented him from speaking.
Well that was a wake up call. May I be humble and meek to avoid the pitfalls of pride. President Benson was truly a Prophet of God.
When there is no competition, there is no pride.... wow. Truly life changing.
Thankyou Peter Boyden. I took special note of that comment too.
This is a masterful speech.
I love it. This talk gave me a clearer understanding of how pride is used in the scriptures. brilliant.
So true. God bless those who listen and take heed of this wonderful admonition!
I have always loved this talk... I want to return to it often.
Friendly reminder to return : ) just so you can accomplish your goal. Have a good one!
I love this talk. I gets me every time.
I feel conviction this is so BEAUTIFUL just tear dropping BEAUTIFUL!!

This is a talk by Ezra Taft Benson, read by Gordon B. Hinckley. How are you doing with embedding this into your heart?
Ernest Hemple He truly was a wonderful man and prophet. A reminder, however, that this talk was not Gordon B. Hinckley's, but President Ezra Taft Benson's. Because of President Benson's health, he asked that President Hinckley read it for him. This is mentioned at the very beginning at :05 and restated at :29 by President Hinckley.

This is actually President Benson's talk, but yes, he is a prophet! :)
Remember our beloved prophet Ezra Taft Benson wrote it he was ill but there and he asked our beloved prophet hinckley to speak for him. I loved them both and still do
I feel the same. The power of this talk stands as an eternal standard of God's will...and His pure love for us.
What I love about that talk though is that you can see Ezra Taft benson in the back sitting and you can see him saying Word for Word.
A monumental message, comparable to the speech of King Benjamin
I am thankful to be able to listen to this talk today. Exactly what I needed to hear this day. God is amazing
This revelation has i my.soul nurished my soul and every day I am dismantling it in my life.
That He is👍😊
This is a wonderful talk that teaches me what the many facets of pride truly are and how to overcome.
Wow
Wowwowow what a powerful talk. Right to the pride of ones prideful soul
President Benson is mouthing the whole speech... wow....
Great message!
This is so rich and wise and true. I believe and witness this discourse to be of God and very revealing!
May we examine ourselves carefully with the standards here given!
Truth Eternal. Let us be humble and be one with Christ.
Every time I meet someone who I think, "really needs President Benson's talk," I realize that it's probably time for me to listen to it again too!
A lot of bad moments in my life is result of my own pride! I have a long way to go in learning to be more humble instead of prideful.
Aww bless ya!
Don't be too hard, on yourself. The Lord love's someone who trys!❤😊
One of the best talks ever given by a Prophet of God. Pride is the root cause of all other sins. I need to always be reminded of this sin as it is the cause of most of my problems.
i love him,his talks is applicable in our daily life. Love listening in all his talks.
I love these reminders. 🤗
ZING! Great talk -

President Benson had the humility to have another read this great talk.
This is from the April 1989 Conference - 31 Years ago. When you see the tone and tenor of the political conversation in this country it does not speak well of progress in this area.
I really appreciate Hinckley 🙏
Elements vs. the central feature - emnity towards God
We pit our will against God.
Wow, when understood in this context, my sin is great. Im such a prideful person I need to be reminded frequently, and I come back to this talk.
good leasons to share with our loved ones
Unreal how our message is brought to us by our prophet's
This is an amazing talk. It brings awareness of the various forms of pride. None of us are immune, and we would do well to find where we are prideful in our lives and coose to humble ourselves.
A very powerful talk inspired by God and elegantly spoken.
Oh, how I love our Prophets, ancient and modern. What would we do without them?
Love this talk.
Written more than 30 yrs ago & he described what happened in the "summer of love 2020". Gentle reader, God bless you, Jesus and an invisible network of angelic & celestial beings surround you, guide you & protect you. In Jesus Holy Name, Amen!

For the lord hath redeemed his servant Jacob amen. Love brother skinner.
If only all people can hear and give heed to the Lords counsels by the Prophet.
The thumbs down folk....are prideful...and taketh the truth to be hard....the best talk ever!
Amazing....
President Hinckley really acted as a prophet of God by TELLING US HOW IT IS. He put down the hammer in the most loving way.
I love the late President Gordon B. Hinkley.
Thank for the reminder of pride.
As we all know, as of late the church has mildly excepted the “pride “ community.
I feel this is in reference to the leadership of the church.
My interpretation.
Rest in Peace.
Your words are always appreciated. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Everything is true. Amen
I so much appreciate this talk. I need to be reminded of this constantly, and this talk hits everything right where it needs to be for me. So thankful for our prophets!
That was Awesome. Good stuff. 😃😃😃😃😃😃
Ineeded this💜 and I saw pure love in Gordon B. Hinckley's eyes for President Benson as he read his talk
👍🏻🫂🙏🏼
What a great talk.
Amen
Thank you for this reminder. 🙏
Amen!
I copied this talk into my Scriptures as the book of Ezra...
Prophet Ezra was a wise man.
Lol
Powerful ❤
While my favorite Prophet is always the NOW one...this Navy man happens to make me happy alot, like alot.
Amen to Jesus!
Love this talk. It has definitely helped me take a more introspective view of myself. I think I first read this talk when introduced to it by Elder Goodman.
Such a great talk!
"If we love God, do his will, and fear his judgments more than men's, we'll have self esteem"
Timeless
I find in my self is that if I self others with " an eye single to the Glory of Jesus Christ" I can overcome PRIDE.
Studying my Book of Mormon. I was wondering about Zenif and how he was described on many occassions as being overzealous. So did a search to understand what they meant by this and this is the first talk that pops up. Now, I realize I too could have been or still be a Zenif.
Line upon line, precept on precept.🙏
"They withhold forgiveness to keep another in their debt" ugly sin of pride. I have brother who will not speak to me for something I said but will not tell me what it is that I said. I miss him😟 I heard this from another brother.
I pray that your family's wounds have healed.
There are 2 churches only, the Church of the Lamb and the Church of the Devil, or the humble vs the proud. I see how pride has affected many areas of my life and I am truly working to repent of it.

Interesting how it’s now a slogan for a certain movement of people
I have an audio of this talk by Benson but not a video: An amazing penetrating talk:
Are you saying that he gave the same talk on a different occasion?
Please, pray for me, my best friends, Mahayleigh, Elli, Sarah and my girlfriend, Amberly.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
A Prophet reading the words of another Prophet.
Cool.
Serve other not oneself.
Sometimes we resent others for putting us down…sometimes we blame the Lord for not stopping someone from doing us harm…what is the key to getting away from this? And even more….when will it stop? A person can only take so much.
🙏❣️
Please edit the title and description to say that the talk is by Ezra Taft Benson! :-)
Four future presidents of the church were present in this meeting, President Hunter, President Hinckley, President Monson, and President Nelson...and maybe one more, President Oaks.
👍💯
does anybody knows when this talk was giving? Thanks.
