Agreed. I'm autistic, so I am used to standing alone. I recognize your name from Christian Homestead. My ward just changed leaders and missionaries, at just the right time to shed light on our current times. Is there a place where like-minded people meet like in a Facebook group?
President Nelson gave a similar talk a few years ago called “The Love and Laws of God”. It’s excellent. An excerpt: “In [teaching truth], sometimes we are accused of being uncaring as we teach the Father’s requirements for exaltation in the celestial kingdom. But wouldn’t it be far more uncaring for us not to tell the truth-not to teach what God has revealed? It is precisely because we do care deeply about all of God’s children that we proclaim His truth. We may not always tell people what they want to hear. Prophets are rarely popular. But we will always teach the truth!”
I’m not an emotional person but this message put tears in my eyes. So amazing! The balance of love and truth is under attack like never before. Permissiveness is being cloaked under the false guise of compassion. The Overton window of what is allowed to be spoken publicly is shrinking. Some eternal truths are deemed hateful by clever deceptions calculated to subvert our spiritual eyes. This mass-manipulation feels awfully familiar. I believe satan and his angels used the false “compassion” tactic (that rejects truth) against us in the war in heaven. But like Moroni taught in Moroni 7:45, true charity “rejoiceth not in iniquity but rejoiceth in the truth”. We can and ought to love the sinner but not the sin.
Absolutely! Satan has a fake for every gospel principle. For godly patience, Satan’s fake substitute is “compassion” and so-called “tolerance.” These are just code words for embracing sin.
jesus not only makes me stronger but easy my burden to carrie ...i donot denied jesus but i depend on him because all he is is my pride ...make it easy because no longer need my ego but him only meak and lonely of heart honor in glory to the father for ever and ever amen.
A SIGN! Thought I’d share an interesting happening this week. Two nights ago I had a clear, quick but vivid dream of an elevator. Instantly felt impacted that it meant something. I actually woke up thinking what did that mean? Can I use the elevator as an analogy in my life or for my kids somehow? I thought about it for a bit and everyone once in a while during the day. Then I didn’t think about it anymore until this morning when I was on TH-cam and saw this talk! Wow. VERY impactful and a sign for the need to stand facing the right direction!
"To be very specific, the United States could be defined as a “federal constitutional representative democracy.” You might also call it a “federal constitutional republic.” Let’s break those terms down. Constitutional: Our system of government is considered constitutional, because the power exercised by the people and their representatives is bound by the constitution and the broader rule of law. Federal: Our government is also a federal system, since power is shared between a national government, representing the entire populace, and regional and local governments." Basically our government is both a Democracy and A Republic. It can be referenced either way.
The most accurate description would be we are a combination of both. We have democratic elements and republic elements in our government. We are not a pure Republic.
Jesus stood up in the face of evil and spoke truth, he never avoided contention, he was contention. If righteous people do not take a stand to protect America we will all lose the ability to freedom of religion and therefore the word of God may be lost to the masses, we are the keepers of the faith and we have the responsibility to preserve it. Pacifism is not the doctrine of Jesus, all you need do to understand is look at his actions. God bless all of you who've read this and may he awaken your courage and strength to confront the evil we all face.
We have to follow the promptings of the spirit to know the answer to that question. Sometimes Jesus confounded the pharisees, sometimes he remained quiet. Same thing with nephi, he tried to teach his brothers the truth and eventually they just needed to be separated. Good question.
in the paridice of of god ...the people will never get back their covenant wife or husband because of the weaked of this generation. in jesus name amen.
@@RogerKartchner God is Eternal Spirit, HOLY, PURE, was NEVER a sinful man. There is only Him, no other gods exist despite the UNBIBLICAL LDS view of multiple gods. Mormons are polythieists like Hindu, not Christian, not Biblical.
@@RogerKartchner Question for you. God is Omnipresent. He is EVERYWHERE. There is noplace you can go where He is not. Therefore, if "God" is a "glorified man of flesh" living on "planet Koleb" with his harem of wives who make spirit babies, then how can this god of the Mormons be omnipresent and with me and supposedly with you, at the same time? He is SPIRIT.
For a reason, the church leaders are playing into the pressures of the social politics of our day, unlike our leaders of the past, they are not taking a firm stand and this is causing many of our young people, and adults, to be confused, with guard lowered under the misrepresentation of "compassion", under these teachings. I have personally witnessed the fall of many of our youth over these past few years, steming from these kind of talks from our leaders. I have lived in and with the natives and latinos of both Central & South America for 21 years pf my life. My closest friends are amongst these people, but the racism is strong in their culture, against Americans in general, but edpecially with white caucasion Americans. My wife was born and raised in Nicaragua and can attest to these same unclear teachings, that this was the very root that caused her country to now live under a dictator. Christ always stood strong in truth and principal, this is why they killed him. I encourage all to not be blindly lead, but to follow Brigham Youngs admonition, to seek the council of our leaders, walk always with the Holy Ghost, and seek truth in all things, as declared in D&C 88:77-80, for Section 130:18-21. Is clear of this need to gain understanding and live it under the law and glory, it sustains and the advantage one will have in the life to come. Eve was not content with just following dictates, she knew that in order to fulfill her measure and Fathers plan, she must partake of the fruit and be able to make choices for herself. I say this with all do respect to our leaders, they have their purpose, and we have ours. Salvation is individual, not collective, without a clear cut road, freedom and agency, there is only tyranny, and in one generation, the teachings of Christ can, and have been, lost. I pray that all will one day be able to walk side by side with the Spirit and not need to be lead by the hand by any form of the arm of the flesh. "Be", so that you may "become". No leaer has a crystal ball, and have errored in efforts to try to do good, "not all that is spoken by our General Authorities is doctrine", quote by Elder Oaks a few years ago, With that in mind, the Lord reveals revelation for the Church, only through His Prophet. Pray aaboutthis, please.
Ahhh, so you support legislation compelling the apartment owner not to discriminate despite his religion, while preserving your own right to discriminate based on your religion?
Very interesting how you castigate an Apostle of the Lord Jesus Christ while using the name of Jesus Christ to do so!! You have no authority to use His Name!!
Allah is the True God. There is no other god than Him. He is not a man nor was He ever a man. He is greater than all that exists. Nothing is comparable to Him. He is the All-Seeing and All-Hearing. He does not have children or parents. He is the FIrst whom none came before Him. We need Him but He does not need anything. He is high above all creation. And He is the Creator of all that exists. Only He deserves worship without any intercessors. Jesus is His prophet and slave as was Muhammad peace be upon him. Muhammad is the final prophet after whom there will never be another prophet. I invite you all to accept the truth. Ask Allah to guide you and if you are sincere He will. May Allah send peace on those who follow His guidance in the Quran and authentic Sunnah amin.
Out of respect for you and your belief, I feel this one described by you is the same God described by our New Age Humanists. Is there a difference? Their God stands as the creator of the universe without a body and is above all things, and yet is distant. We believe in a God that is personal. He is above all things, but will personally answer your prayers because he is your literal spiritual father. This God is one with a perfect body and spirit. He is a God of order and commandment. He loves his children very much and not only gave us agency to choose Heaven, but also gave us the gift of consequence. His adversary, Satan/the Devil, wanted all creatures to return to heaven without choice or consequence, wanting to take the glory for himself. He works against all things good and eternal, and obviously against God. Our God is all seeing, all knowing, and all powerful. Yet he is merciful to those who repent and will choose to follow him. There is hell and there is heaven, and to varying degrees according to the amount of light/truth we can handle and desire. He is a God of judgement and will bring it upon those who outright disobey him, or the wicked ones. Yet he is so good and brings blessings to the righteous ones -the ones who obey him.
He also has a beloved son in his own image who came to answer for the eternal consequences of those who have sinned, yet want to repent. He will make all things right and cleanses the soul every time we come to him with a broken heart and a contrite (repentant) spirit.
I will follow the God of Abraham, Issac and Jacob. The God that has made it his work to bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man. The same God that has laid out a plan from the beginning and does not change it or where we are heading. The God that gives us our agency and the possibility to become like him. You claim Jesus as a prophet of Allah and there you deceive for Jesus Christ has claimed of himself to be son of the father and the Lord of the Old Testament. The only begotten of the father. Can a man claim that Jesus Chris is a Prophet of God and spoke lies in calling himself begotten of the father? I will answer you and say NO, for God is not a liar. God does not want slaves. The ideology of slaves to God sounds a lot like that espoused by the Luciferians. I would not want to get to know their God for his promised path is misery forever and there is no purpose in anything under that ideology since all would be slaves and forever would be slaves. I will take the God that has promised us freedom and his love. I will continue to follow the True God and his only begotten. The God that cares enough to lets us make mistakes so we can learn and grow. So we can be shaped into something more.
I have been saying it for years. One of the most important things a parent can teach their children is to be OK standing alone.
Agreed. I'm autistic, so I am used to standing alone.

Well said!
What a wonderful blessing it is to have living prophets and apostles!
Pairs beautifully with and reinforces President Nelson's devotional address. Let's hope BYU's radical elements have ears to hear.
It also reinforces President Nelson’s talk “The Love and Laws of God”. Highly recommended!
I haven’t listened to it. I’ll have to look for it.

Excellent message
We are a Republic, not a democracy. This is a very important point that our youth need to understand.
"To be very specific, the United States could be defined as a “federal constitutional representative democracy.” You might also call it a “federal constitutional republic.” Let’s break those terms down.
Constitutional: Our system of government is considered constitutional, because the power exercised by the people and their representatives is bound by the constitution and the broader rule of law.

Most Excellent!

I have listened to talks like this for 50 years. All they have done for me is cause me to be too scared to live.
Remain quiet? Elder Holland just said that our PROBLEM is that we are remaining quiet when we need to defend the truth! Which is right?
We have to follow the promptings of the spirit to know the answer to that question. Sometimes Jesus confounded the pharisees, sometimes he remained quiet. Same thing with nephi, he tried to teach his brothers the truth and eventually they just needed to be separated. Good question.

Proclaim TRUTH: God is NOT a glorified man.
What is HE?? A glorified essence?? A glorified nothing without body, parts, or passions?? Don't you worship Jesus as God? Doesn't He have a body??
