I LOVE the leaders of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints! I left the church 20 years ago because I was offended by things that had been said. My life after leaving was terribly dark. I had become an alcoholic and drug addict. In the space of “not many years” I was homeless and hopeless. God NEVER gave up trying to rescue me. I’ve recently been rebaptized and feel so much joy that only the gospel and God can provide. These men are in many senses just like us- they are not perfect…. However they are trying their best to follow the the only perfect person to walk the earth. So I feel most comfortable trying to follow their admonitions and my Savior, Jesus Christ.
That’s an amazing story. Thank you for leaving that with us. I left too for a time. Dark, hopelessness is what I found as well. I don’t ever want to go without the Holy Spirit, or the Savior again. Like you God was there waiting for me to choose Him. As soon as I did, I was enveloped in His love & charity.
If you're positively impressed by Elder Bednar's conference address, you might also be interested in finding out more about The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. That could be done in many different ways, but a few most common are listening to other conference talks (they're easily Googled) and speaking with the Missionaries, or even one of the leaders of a Ward or Stake near you. Conference talks are an effective way to get to the so-called 'meat and potatoes' of the Gospel, but you may not fully get what they're saying without having some things explained to You by the Missionaries, and I'd be happy to help you also. Just reply if you're interested, and take care.
I would like to invite you to read the Book of Mormon and to find out for yourself if this church is true and to pray and asks God the Father in the name of Jesus Christ to know these things. I promise that if you pray and asks him in faith you will find more peace and knowledge just the same like you did from this video I know that this church is true and I know that Elder David. A. Bednar is inspired by the spirit and is a true apostle of God and I say this in the name of Jesus Christ amen.
I had to re-watch Elder Bednar's talk because the spirit of warning was VERY distinct. I've really noticed the African saints OVERFLOWING with the Holy Spirit as the wards and branches grow. Their eyes show so much LOVE for Jesus Christ! 💜🙏🏼🫂 Yet I've seen so many members in America dropping like flies...😲 People here think that God's word is outdated, not applicable to them, and/or just plain offensive. I'm far from perfect, but I know that I returned to church after almost 2 decades of inactivity. THAT mistake was definitely learned from, and I believe my testimony is stronger now than EVER! It's not easy, but being away from the true gospel is way harder, and I'm grateful to have the truth in my life and Jesus Christ as my strength. I fully sustain our first presidency and our 12 Apostles, and I say this in the name of Jesus Christ amen 🙏🏼🥰
Praise be to Our Savior for His words to guide us to Heaven. I'm so grateful for your warning. MANY of my family and friends have left or are lukewarm.
Thank You, so much, Elder David A. Bedner . . . for so sincerely sharing this refreshing and very divine message. Please know that as a recent new member of the LDS Church, your words of inspiration and perspective are helping me make the better decisions and resulting choices that I know that I truly want to make. Thank You !
This was so powerful!!! Third time listening. A warning to us all. What i heard in my heart was: Read the words of Helamen and see a description of OUR day in black and white. Come to a knowledge of our awful situation and be grateful for this warning before it is too late. I pray for the strength to heed that profound and timely warning. Thank you, Elder Bednar, for reminding me that I must be on guard continually. Thank you for quoting President Benson for whom I have great admiration. ❤
16:16 I truly believe the old adage "pride goeth before a fall". I have a problem with pride at times. Always fall on my face. Thank goodness the Lord keeps me humble.😊
How can you not love a revival of that great President Benson talk on pride? I am thankful for living prophets, seers, and revelators. Sincere thanks to Elder Bednar.
He addresses us as "we" rather than "you," incuding himself as those susceptible to pride (though I am confident he would not fall, I appreciate his humility).
Start to finish, this GC was focused on perfecting the Saints. I've said for a long time there would be a shift to that someday. We need to become a people worthy to receive the Lord when he comes again, and it is time to get in shape. There are wolves in sheep's clothing among us, and those that need to be strengthened as well as looking inward to our own discipleship.
I really felt the messages of "it's time Now! Time to stop waffling around, time to finally and wholly commit to Christ, to level up your game and try harder, time to seriously start choosing to put Christ first" as a reoccurring theme. These Conference talks hit HARD this year. Especially President Nelson's talk - I could feel his palpable sense of yearning to impress these truths on our hearts, pleading for us to change our very nature so that when Christ comes, we won't be left outside the wedding venue like in the Parable of the 10 Virgins. 😟🩷 Our leaders truly wear themselves out in their service to the Lord.
-Thinks of a handful of people who need to hear this message…. “A few moments later” Wait a minute…I NEED THIS MESSAGE Elder Bednar 🔥 What a Saturday!!

As a prideful person, I believe pride is actions as much as it is attitude, and that spending our extra money on luxury for ourselves rather than giving to those in need is prideful no matter where we think our hearts are. As Jesus said, where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
Agreed! The Book of Mormon repeats the message that one of the first signs of a waxing pride cycle is the wearing of costly apparel and neglecting the poor.
The Book of Mormon changed my life forever and I am grateful for apostles and prophets who sacrifice there time to remind us of this marvelous restoration of truth. God bless everyone ❤
What a wonderful talk from Elder Bednar. The scriptures he expounds on truly speak to us about how we can stop ourselves of pride and keep us on the covenant path no matter what our circumstances may be. Thank you for this reminder.😊
This was a great talk. Loved it. President Benson had a huge influence on my life too as a new convert. Loved that Elder Bednar answers the very important question on where WE are in the Book of Mormon timeline.
Amen! In one of the footnotes, he is saying some are past the day of repentance. I believe this too, because their pride turns to bloodshed if the loose their lands from the Lamanite's that will come among us, and hearts set on the riches and vain things of this world is too hard for them. The early Saints had this, but they didn't harden their hearts. They picked up and moved on...
Thank you Elder D A Bednar, for enlighten us the truthfulness of the Book of Mormon. PRIDE is really the number one tool of satan to misunderstood God purpose why we are here in mortality. Our Heavenly Father want us all to return to his Glory , but we need to prove our worthiness by overcoming all the trials no matter how hard it is to make us humble against our own hidden PRIDE . With the help of Jesus Christ Gospel we will win the adversary deception. Again thank you Elder Bednar for your strong reminder.
I’ve been working on eliminating pride since I re-studied it in the LDS 12 steps. I believe it will be necessary to continue to improve in the sober world. I also recently heard a talk you gave on addiction, & in particular you mentioned addiction to adrenaline which is also something I’m overcoming. Thank you for the wisdom you impart to the world! Your brother in Christ, James M.
I do also love the leaders of the Church. I stayed to myself. I been bully by the white members of the church in my area. I been around the world. I grew up in a Jewish family i was a nanny. I was part of their family. They millionaires and mingle with famous for artist . Then I live with a German millionaire businessman. I entered a life of privilege indeed. But the members bullying me. I believe in the leadership of the churd. This people born in the churd. The church opens opportunities for members to have a practical education. I work hard to bring people to the gospel. I am really overwhelmed I have always been dealing with bullies through many years. My personality is German. I observed and keep to myself. They are mundane. They take the church for granted.I tell the truth. This is a reason why the leaders are unique. Now members are blessed because the Savior created his church on earth. Member trusting this corrupt political season. Thank you Elder Bernard ❤
I’m sorry you have been bullied! We are to be a Zion people, loving each other, our hearts knit together, taking care of one another! I will be praying for you that you will find some true friends in the gospel who treat you as you should be treated-as a Child of God!🙏🏼🙏🏼💕💕
I’m so grateful for Elder Bednar and his amazing teachings, love, kindness and dedication to guiding us all through these Ladder Days. I’m so grateful that we were able to study his talk for our inklings this week as well ❤❤. We love you and we sustain you Elder Bednar
As an apostle of the Lord, Elder Bednar, just reiterated a warning that is very real to our day, and the specific time line of our day, relative to what is happening in Helaman Very timely and leaves one pondering his message in a deep and personal way.
I love this talk....pride has never moved any person to the next level. Pride keeps you stuck in a deep dark hole. Pride makes you forget there is a God 😢 a prideful person knows nothing about humility.
As usual Elder Bednar cuts through the static and aims straight for the jugular. Though kind, he is fearless in directing our attention to the root causes of our current conditions. He highlights how pride and it’s evidential affects, as is so graphically demonstrated in the Book of Mormon could be our fate should we choose not to alter our (collectively) path.
It is such a blessing to have the ability to almost immediately be able to relisten to these talks ❤, technology used to help us Think Celestial! Thank you Elder Bednar for this amazing talk ❤
AMEN - For me personally, I have learned that when I am getting angry, frustrated, irritated, judgemental or any miriad of other negative feelings, that pride is at the core and I need a course correction. I need to immerse myself in the teachings and word of the Lord and find opportunity to serve until that spirit leaves me.
I also committed recently and refused to comment on social media unless I am saying something positive and wholesome. I don't comment on many things anymore.
I met Elder Bednar back in Nov. 2008, back in Panama, he is a Great Apostle, Great Man and a Man of God, Never Froget what he said, "Never Say Great Talk, Just set the Example, DO IT", stood in me since then.
Best talk so far. Not only a warning about pride but telling us the BofM is NOT a history book written FOR our fay. It is ABOUT our day. Helama. Is what happened before the Lord came rhe first time, and describes what is happening now before He comes again.
There is so much to think about and ponder that I will be listening to these talks over and over so as to get the full understanding of the messages. I am so thankful for Elder Bednar. His messages are so powerful.
One of the purest men that has devoted many years of service as a sitting apostle of the 12! I absolutely love this man. There is something to be said about a grown man tearing up, simply by talking about another man becoming a part of the mouthpiece leading us toward Jesus Christ. All these devoted individuals want, is for us to receive all of the blessings that come from Christ’s Atonement.❤❤
This was an incredible talk. I can’t wait to study this more. Definitely just became one of my favorite talks from General conference of all time. Thank you Elder Bednar. You are a treasure and I love you too.
This is so relevant! So inspiring! And so full of inspiration! It motivates me to love, share & invite & to see, hear, and feel how I need to repent & beware of pride! Love you Elder Bednar!❤
It makes me wonder where are we as a society in the Pride cycle? It always helps me in my personal pride battle to listen or read president Bensons talk “Beware of Pride” from April 1989 that Elder Bednar referred to. ❤ so grateful for these prophetic leaders.
If you look at the Book of Mormon as a roadmap/time line, Bednar has pretty much put this conference concurrent with Samuel the Lamanite. Which was about 35-38 years out, if I remember correctly. Of course, the Lord did say our times would be shortened, so it could well be less this time. I'm guessing less than 20 but more than 10.
We just got through studying and teaching this book of Helaman to our Sunday School class! We were amazed of these great tragedies of sorrow they experienced! During these chapters it seemed as though God brought wars to them to humble them! This book strengthened our testimonies of God and his great plan for our lives! It seemed to show very clearly what we need to do as we put Jesus and his teachings the center of our lives! Thank you for this great talk! May we learn from the magnificent Book of Mormon!
God can heal our wounds….I do not know my future, but I have faith in the Savior, and the hope of the gospel. How can we be lowly and meek like Him? I am very aware of my unworthiness, and hope that I can do so. I pray that our families will each within cling to each other.
This concept of Pride has been among us since Cain slew Able. The talk is new but the concept is ancient. Satan has known since Adam was placed on the earth that this pride tendency was among us humans and useable by him. I like the humorous twist to your comment👏👏👏 😀😀😀
@@bryanpons6585 The concept of pride has been among us since the pre-existence. Satan rebelled and 1/3 of the host followed him out of pride. There was a war and we all had to determine who to follow.
Read the warnings for the gentiles in 3 Nephi 16 and 21 and the promises to the Lamanites and lost tribes there and notice what Elder Bednar says about losing our birth right. Bednar is truly an inspired man
To be humble means to obey what God says and keep His commandments as written in His Holy book, the Bible including the fourth commandment. Thank you pastor for the beautiful message.
Elder Bednar always touches my heart and gives me the lesson I need. I love listening to him. He reminds me of my great great grandfather the Prophet Wilford Woodruff.
Pride enters when we allow our human minds to control our spiritual eyes 😢 when logic trumps the undeniable whisperings of the Spirit and when we let human mistakes take us away from the plan heavenly Father has for us.
The Book of Heleman is actually quite frightening. Thank you for the clear warning! I will do my best to be on constant guard against Satans influence. The Book of Mormon is a Urim and Thummim of sorts. Through it we can gaze into the future! The Book of Mormon allows us to see through the eyes of a seer if we have eyes to see and ears to hear!
Interestingly, the Book of Helaman is where we see the two witnesses that ensure that the gospel goes to "all the people." Pure conjecture on my part but it is interesting to me that Nelson and Oaks were childhood friends and set apart as apostles on the same day.
I love this talk about the importance of The Book of Mormon for our day. We truly need to put more time into reading from this powerful book of scripture. It truly testifies of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Thank you Eld Bednar for sharing your testimony of The Book of Mormon.
What a great message. If I had to pick a favorite messages from Saturday Conference this was it. It came by way of Prophets from out of the dust of the earth, and was delivered by one. If all would just listen to that still small voice testifying that this message is true and then follow the counsel, This whole World 🌍 🌎 could Be Made Great Again.
Wow such an amazing message! My wife and I just had our 5th child, we love all our kids so much. It makes me sad that hardly anyone my ages has kids or wants children.
Pride a spiritual poison! What is pride? “Disbelieve in the spirit of prophecy and revelation, trample under our feet the commandments of God, deny the word of God, cast out mock and revile against the prophets, and forget the Lord our God, and desire not that the Lord our God who hath created us, should rule and reign over us”.
I LOVE the leaders of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints! I left the church 20 years ago because I was offended by things that had been said. My life after leaving was terribly dark.

I had to re-watch Elder Bednar's talk because the spirit of warning was VERY distinct.
I've really noticed the African saints OVERFLOWING with the Holy Spirit as the wards and branches grow. Their eyes show so much LOVE for Jesus Christ!
💜🙏🏼🫂
Yet I've seen so many members in America dropping like flies...😲
People here think that God's word is outdated, not applicable to them, and/or just plain offensive.

“Allowing pride to enter into our hearts can cause us to mock that which is sacred”
This man is a power house and speaks what Christ wants us to know!
He addresses us as "we" rather than "you," incuding himself as those susceptible to pride (though I am confident he would not fall, I appreciate his humility).
Apostles have fallen away before, it's just been awhile since it last happened.
The antidote to the pride of prosperity is the Law of Consecration.
Start to finish, this GC was focused on perfecting the Saints. I've said for a long time there would be a shift to that someday. We need to become a people worthy to receive the Lord when he comes again, and it is time to get in shape. There are wolves in sheep's clothing among us, and those that need to be strengthened as well as looking inward to our own discipleship.

-Thinks of a handful of people who need to hear this message….
“A few moments later”
Wait a minute…I NEED THIS MESSAGE

What a Saturday!!
Amen.
So do I.
“a few moments later” 🙂 We must always imagine exactly ourselves being called out. I’ve been trying to divorce myself from pride for sometime now.

We just got through studying and teaching this book of Helaman to our Sunday School class! We were amazed of these great tragedies of sorrow they experienced! During these chapters it seemed as though God brought wars to them to humble them! This book strengthened our testimonies of God and his great plan for our lives! It seemed to show very clearly what we need to do as we put Jesus and his teachings the center of our lives! Thank you for this great talk! May we learn from the magnificent Book of Mormon!
Powerful & Prophetic!
❤each of us must beware of ,,, the arrogance of pride… in the space of not many days..we may forfeit our spiritual birthright…❤
Thank you, Elder Bednar for such a great talk on Pride... ❤
Best conference talk so far!
He couldn't say it better. Always gives great talks!!!
I absolutely loved his talk. I’m so grateful for apostles and prophets
God can heal our wounds….I do not know my future, but I have faith in the Savior, and the hope of the gospel. How can we be lowly and meek like Him? I am very aware of my unworthiness, and hope that I can do so. I pray that our families will each within cling to each other.
Amen and Amen
We all needed this talk. Who is listening in 2024?

Of course! It just came out last night🥰👍🏻🙏🏼
This concept of Pride has been among us since Cain slew Able. The talk is new but the concept is ancient. Satan has known since Adam was placed on the earth that this pride tendency was among us humans and useable by him. I like the humorous twist to your comment👏👏👏 😀😀😀
@@bryanpons6585 The concept of pride has been among us since the pre-existence. Satan rebelled and 1/3 of the host followed him out of pride. There was a war and we all had to determine who to follow.

I am so grateful for Elder Bednar's counsel.
Thank you 😊 love this talk 💜 UK
Thank you so much Elder Bednar for this inspired message. I wish to be like you ❣️❣️🤍
“Beware of pride”
Thank you for this truth and reminder
Read the warnings for the gentiles in 3 Nephi 16 and 21 and the promises to the Lamanites and lost tribes there and notice what Elder Bednar says about losing our birth right. Bednar is truly an inspired man
@@LatterDayChad ABSOLUTELY🙏🏼👍🏻
To be humble means to obey what God says and keep His commandments as written in His Holy book, the Bible including the fourth commandment. Thank you pastor for the beautiful message.
Elder Bednar always touches my heart and gives me the lesson I need. I love listening to him. He reminds me of my great great grandfather the Prophet Wilford Woodruff.
Such a beautifully written talk and a powerful apostolic warning!
Thank you for this wonderful message. We all need to beware of pride even by leaning from the Nephites' experiences.
Pride enters when we allow our human minds to control our spiritual eyes 😢 when logic trumps the undeniable whisperings of the Spirit and when we let human mistakes take us away from the plan heavenly Father has for us.
Wow, wow those words or warning ⚠️ . I am thinking what can i do to avoid pride. I need to serve more, i need to read the scriptures more.
The Book of Heleman is actually quite frightening. Thank you for the clear warning! I will do my best to be on constant guard against Satans influence. The Book of Mormon is a Urim and Thummim of sorts. Through it we can gaze into the future! The Book of Mormon allows us to see through the eyes of a seer if we have eyes to see and ears to hear!
@@ARKOFOURSAFETY exactly! I tell people if you want to know what's going on in the news, read the book of Mormon
Interestingly, the Book of Helaman is where we see the two witnesses that ensure that the gospel goes to "all the people."
Pure conjecture on my part but it is interesting to me that Nelson and Oaks were childhood friends and set apart as apostles on the same day.
Thank you so much dear president bednar for this powerful talk I’ve learned a lot ❤
Thank you for the guidance on our actions this coming months for our future.
Thanks Elder,
It is good for each of us to be reminded this.
I love this talk about the importance of The Book of Mormon for our day. We truly need to put more time into reading from this powerful book of scripture. It truly testifies of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Thank you Eld Bednar for sharing your testimony of The Book of Mormon.
I loved this beautiful talk.
What a great message. If I had to pick a favorite messages from Saturday Conference this was it. It came by way of Prophets from out of the dust of the earth, and was delivered by one. If all would just listen to that still small voice testifying that this message is true and then follow the counsel, This whole World 🌍 🌎 could Be Made Great Again.
Love this Apostolic Apostle!
Military historians say, ”The past does not repeat itself but it does rhyme.” This message reminds us of this lesson.
Amazing talk 😭😭😭😳😇
Thank you Elder Bednar so much ...😊🎉❤
Your strong faith, discernment is so true...
I am comforted with your message...
I love you too Elder Bednar🙏
I love you Elder Bednar
Thank you, Elder Bednar 💝❤️💝
I love elder bednar and his amazing teachings ❤❤❤❤
I can listen over and over to these great words.
Wow such an amazing message! My wife and I just had our 5th child, we love all our kids so much. It makes me sad that hardly anyone my ages has kids or wants children.
Thank you president for that wonderful message that refreshes my soul
Pride a spiritual poison! What is pride? “Disbelieve in the spirit of prophecy and revelation, trample under our feet the commandments of God, deny the word of God, cast out mock and revile against the prophets, and forget the Lord our God, and desire not that the Lord our God who hath created us, should rule and reign over us”.
Let’s not forget hoarding our wealth and prosperity and refusing to help the poor. Elder Bednar talked about that a LOT.
I look forward to seeing how things will be once he becomes "President Bednar".
Great Talk ! Yes Pride comes before a fall we need to be careful it can happen to anyone !
So grateful for these words! ❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you for good message ❤
Thank you Elder Bednar for blessing me with this message🎉

I’m so glad I heard this I needed this thank you.
