I am a man, dealing with severe depression and I hear and feel the power of Elder Hollands words and my heart swells with love and tears of joy fall from my eyes, he brings a spirit of hope, love and charity every time he speaks. I love and appreciate the powerful testimony and strength this man brings into my life. Thanks Elder Holland!
A better explanation of the beliefs of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints I have never heard. The truth from the mouth of a true Apostle of Jesus Christ. Thank you Elder Holland.
i would like to bear my testimony that i know the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is the true church on the earth today. I have a knowledge of the truthfulness of the gospel. I have started filling out my mission papers and am volunteering to serve a two year mission to help spread the true gospel of Jesus Christ. I love this church and it has blessed my life. I know the Book of Mormon is true.
Elder Holland lifts my spirits and I feel the Spirit in my presence as I listen. What a true Apostle of God he is. You just know he has our Heavenly Father beside him guiding his holy words. Amen
Wow, a bold speech for the venue- but also very humble and heartfelt. Elder Holland is such a good example of being respectful but bold in sharing the gospel :)
Wonderful testimony of Christ. If nothing else, these words encourage me to pray, study, and ponder to know more about the nature of God and his son, Jesus Christ and come closer to them.
Elder Holland is my favorite speaker !
Wonderful !
I feel the Holy Ghost bear witness of the truth of the Gospel. I'm thankful for my testimony!
He does a nice job explaining his religion.
I know that Élder Jeffrey R. Holland is an Apostle of Jesus Christ!!! I know that, and I'm happy about that testimony!
Thank you for posting this. It is great to know about the work the brethren do.
I think this is a wonderful, concise overview of what Mormonism is and what it believes. It effectively explains in what way The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is a Christian faith, even though it differs in many ways from your typical creedal Christian faiths.
More ! I need More !!!
I love this man...
I love being a Mormon I was a Missionary for 18 months and two weeks and also I do go for 2 years also I love it
The best missionary discussion, or lesson, I have ever heard. Jeffrey R.
Thank you for that GOD Live and HE is the some yesterday today and forever I love His Gospel is life and blessing
Now I know how to explain if somebody comes to me and tells me that Mormons are not Christians. Thank you E. Holland.
i'd love it very much,please update thanks
A well presented review of the Book of Mormon. A very good read for everyone.
I want Q&A so bad, or a followup video with responses to his words
Beautiful.
This is so awesome! loved it. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much for posting this! I love to hear Elder Holland speak.
Elder Holland speaks the truth. I add my witness to his. In Jesus' name.
Love it
I love listening to Elder Holland! I would give almost anything to be able to sit and talk with him face to face.
It is really hard to listen to an authorized apostle and not feel the divinity of their calling, one may deny it initially but down inside they know something is different about this person.
thx
This is my witness also!
Just as powerful and logically sound as are all of Elder Holland's addresses. Whatever this man has to say he will have a rapt listener in me. Could any of his audience at Harvard or across the world come away from such expositions still questioning the Christian authenticity of his religion?

Right on! Love this video. Educational and true.

Awesome-isimo.
awesome
I can tell at least one person left because they have a religion of their own. Jeffrey R. Holland is my most favorite Apostle.
I think your nick shouldn't be halfhumanhalfzombie, but Fullzombie from head to toes.
+Homo Capensi Your obvious total hatred for the Church undermines your credibility.
Susan Cluff I agree
Susan Cluff If I were you, I wouldn't use that type of rationale. Human emotions and senses tend to deceive even those who think of themselves as intellectuals. I`d rather investigate thoroughly the faith I claim to believe. Remember, it's only about the salvation of your soul what's on the line.
Susan Cluff I can tell you haven't read the scriptures where the Lord Himself was very angry at those who called themselves the representatives of God. People like the scribes and pharassees who pretended to know all the law and nobody could tell them otherwise. It kinds of reminds me of your apostle Holland. Christ came to the temple and when He saw what they have done to it; He got a wrath that couldn't help to avoid in even hitting tables and stands and even I would imagine He would have well push and swing a whip to them. What do you call that?
He's so brave. I love him and the gospel.
I'd love to watch the whole video, please can you update it, thanks
Amen.

I really believe that God has given the Twelve Apostles, and specifically Elder Holland, communication talent that allows them to effectively bear witness of the Savior to intellectual groups such as would be found at Harvard as well as to crowds that are not as sophisticated. It strengthens my testimony of the truth of their words.
Perfect explanation of the First Vision to non believers.
Here is the audio of the Q&A:

❤❤❤❤
So powerful and clear, by one who knows.
The Q&A can be found in the link provided by the uploader under "Additional Resources."
I love that man :-D
The question and answer can be found on the lds.org website it won't let me post a link to it
Brilliant.
Audio is at the following link:
Christ invites and teaches each of us to read the scriptures, pray fervently and attend church. There in we can understand our purpose on Earth and how to "focus on Jesus." Might I say that focusing on Christ would indefinitely require attending church and reading the scriptures which teach the words of Christ. Through doing so I believe and know that one will come to more fully understand why and how to have faith in our Savior, Jesus Christ.
I wonder what the students thought of his talk.

So, where is the rest of the talk and the questions that were asked? I thought Elder Holland did a fine job, but I'd like to hear the rest of it. Thanks.

I must wonder if Elder Holland, or any other religious representative, would be allowed to.speak more in 2022? I'd like to hope so, but...

Utah Lighthouse ministry.
what does this say?
ace
That's why i don't go to church or read my bible cause all i have to to is focus on Jesus.
is this really what you believe?
Jeffrey appears to be a genuine man and I agree this is a very persuasive exegesis of faith. I'm reminded that Jesus was put to death by religious leaders, potitcal leaders, and even His closest friends who chose money and security over peace. If God's kingdom was as one body on this earth then it seems there would be more unity and unconditional love. It seems that history demonstrates that our weaknesses render us exploitable. Watch " Jesus Knew How To Ride A Bike" here on UA-cam. -Peace
compassion4truth Ether 12:27
This is a sick attempt at proselytizing an highly intellectual group of individuals simply for the sake of validating the church's doctrine which is clearly and undeniably false according to the facts of record.
I can also create false facts :P, how..? technology and/or convincing my friend...
+Heath James Sick? Sounds like you have some deep seeded bias.

― Abraham Maslow
+Heath James
The Harvard board Invited Elder Holland to Harvard University. The meeting is called Annual Mormonism 101 in the paragraph below. Do you think Annual Mormonism 101 shouldn't talk and be based around the basic beliefs of mormonism?
Also show us facts of it's falsity? Their are none Because like all religions it is a spiritual matter.
If you want basic fact's go to www.mormon.org or www.lds.org. Instead of the antimormon/youtube/wikipedia that I'm possitive most people use to learn about mormon's.
Or Call the Missionaries!
Yes, he was invited by the Harvard LDS Institute Latter-day Saint Student Association (LDSSA) for their Mormonism101 lecture series. But no one who attended and heard Elder Holland was forced to be there; they came of their own choice. Proselytizing? That's laughable. Brother Heath, all you have done with your comment is showcase your own ignorance.
