The revelatory belief in a “living prophet on the earth changes everything” for Latter-day Saints, said general authority Seventy Allen D. Haynie. GeneralConference
Other top male and female church authorities will also take to the podium, addressing thousands at the Conference Center in downtown Salt Lake City and millions more via the internet around the world.
The revelatory belief in a “living prophet on the earth changes everything” for Latter-day Saints, said general authority Seventy Allen D. Haynie. “It causes one to be uninterested in the debate about when is a prophet speaking as a prophet or whether one is ever justified in selective rejection of prophetic counsel.”
To help meet that duty, Cook quoted former church President Spencer W. Kimball’s definition of the gathering: Church leaders see “holier ministering” as “the pure love of Christ,” Gong said. “We do not want checklist concern. But often we need more than a sincere hello in the hall or a casual ‘Can I help you?’ in the parking lot.”
Keep the faith and press on in times of discouragement and difficulty, Carl B. Cook, a member of the Presidency of the Seventy, urged conferencegoers.“Joseph repeatedly experienced severe difficulties in his life. However, as he exercised faith in Jesus Christ and his atonement, and just kept going, he overcame seemingly insurmountable obstacles,” Cook said.
Just as the Savior has given us work to do, Cook added, he has endowed members with the ability to complete the work they have been given. “As the Prophet Joseph Smith said, ‘Stand fast, ye Saints of God, hold on a little while longer, and the storm of life will be past, and you will be rewarded by that God whose servants you are.’” President Bonnie H. Cordon, who leads the global Young Women organization, speaks at General Conference on Saturday, April 1, 2023.
The faith’s worldwide Young Women leader urged her listeners to develop “holy habits,” serving and giving in ways that are “less of a checklist and more of a witness.”
