I am a former member of the RLDS Church, and a current member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. President Hinkley was Prophet when I joined. God Bless that good man, love him.
I have always enjoyed the sermons of President Hinckley. He speaks with conviction faith and testimony and such a good church historian. He has given me knowledge and wisdom to guide my life. A true servant of the Saviour. So grateful for his good influence in my life. Has a great sense of humour too.
I love how point blank he is. Sometimes we just need to hear truth in it’s simplest form. When Christ did this during his earthly ministry, not many understood what he was saying. We truly need the spirit to open our minds to allow truth to enter into our hearts not just our heads. Just as those who followed the Savior on earth needed to have the Holy Ghost to enlighten their minds on what the Savior was saying we too need the spirit that we may know and understand what is truth and what isn’t.
I bear witness that President Gordon B. Hinckley was a Prophet of God. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is the Lord's restored church as it existed in ancient times. We stand by others rights when they seek to worship God according to their beliefs. I feel more than any time in history, that we need to stand together and draw divine strength from the sharing.
This talk is so needed and I hope somebody gives it this conference because seriously… There are some really stupid narratives going on around the Internet about polygamy and the authority of the keys.
I love the gosple and I know that Joseph Smith was a real prophet. The melquizedoke priesthood is very important. Our prophets are wonderful and have tried so much to help us to go back to our Heavenly Father.
The way I always understood the ordinances and sacraments baptism occurs once by water and once by spirit, so why was the entire church baptized again after moving to Utah. They left the church restored through Joseph Smith jr. and were baptized into Brigham Young’s apostate organization.
Joseph's descendants should have all records pertaining to their ancestors, if the church wants historical records they should be given copies not the originals those should stay with the family.
