May I be wise, and humble enough to be as obedient as possible! I need to read the scriptures more consistently. Been spending too much time on the phone, and I like the tangible paper scriptures, but the gospel library is awesome! I am so thankful for access to these old messages!
Normally I would be terrified by listen to this powerful words, but I have learned to love the truth. There are the words of Our Lord and Father, and I love them.
When I was baptized At the church of Jesus christ of latter-day Saints He is my prophet I was part of his leadership And the lord bless my life, as i seek the lords kingdom.
Jesus is who I follow! Jesus is the way the truth and the life no man cometh unto the Father but by Him. Jesus saved me and forgave me of all my sins. And He has promised me Eternal Life. I have a personal relationship with JESUS. The HolySpirit lives and indwells within me. He leads and guides me. JESUS IS WORTHY TO BE PRAISED!
Listening and going over what Prophets say is more important than I ever realized. Truly hearing what a Prophet is telling you is more than General Conference. It’s studying their words. I’ve come to realize how very lax I have been in doing this. Everything he said is true. And it’s come to pass.
I love the direct messages from President Kimball. There seems to be so much pandering and making excuses for sin/evil these days. We should all know when and what we are doing wrong.. forsake those bad things, instead of making excuses. Three years before i was born and this is still relevant 46 years later. The word of God is always right on time.
I have always loved this prophet of my youth. From him was my mission call and release. To this day I recall vividly being in the Marriot Center when he came to speak at a devotional. Was high in upper seats, but everyone was immediately quiet and reverant when he entered. One felt the spirit of this prophet and the witness of the holy spirit that he was indeed the Lord's servants. A priceless experience I will forever be grateful for.
I love him... my mother grew up with him is safford, my land lady McBride in thatcher lived next to him, he sent me on a glorious mission, .... im single 20 yrs, and he tells it like it is!,,, God bless
An anti-Mormon once laughed at the Word of Wisdom reference to tobacco being for the use of bruised cattle. He didn't know that the tobacco leaf was once used by farmers to wrap around the legs of cows to protect them from bruises. Because they don't know about something doesn't mean they know it. President Kimball was one of our great prophets.
Yes. As everybody knows, cattle farmers all over the world these days, wrap their cattle's legs with tobacco leaves. Of course half the calves born are deformed, but how could Joseph have known that? BUT...their crippled legs don't seem to have any bruises!
@@daveyjones9930 If you talk to the old farmers who had cattle and horses it was not an uncommon practice to give them tobacco when they were sick. It did not deform the newborn.
Started a quick playlist with Heber C. Kimball, then on to a quick talk by Heber J Grant. Rounding it off with this gentleman's discourse. God is good.
I was on my mission in the Japan Fukuoka Mission when President Kimball became president. I loved him like my father. He was stern, but fair, and in his own way, very sweet. I wish our current leaders were as direct as President Kimball was. I love them too, but I think we need a good stern voice of warning sometimes too.
I feel like it's been a while since prophets have spoken like this. Am I wrong? Perhaps they've gotten tired of people not listening cause all it would do is just make so many people take to social media so idk but it was refreshing to hear.
Wow. So this is where the face card thing is said in such clear command. I have heard people talk back and forth about the face card thing. I will make a change.
"Gayness" is not a sin (the state of being attracted to those of the same gender), but we still hold homosexuality to be a sin or transgression. As for playing cards, I believe there is no problem with playing them in the right state of mind and heart. There is a risk, though, that playing certain card games will lead to gambling or overcompetitiveness. We therefore differentiate between Blackjack and Crazy Eights.
I miss him and his voice. He was the mouthpiece of the Lord.
God will not be mocked. He won't stand for it.
I fear we do not hear messages that are so direct today.
Great Man of God
2021........ even more applicable.
This is actually really scary considering how much more it applies to today, right now, 2020. This was given 46 years ago.
I did listen to it today and I could feel the authority he spoke with, touched by the spirit. I have some things to change in my life
Think Celestial!
No need to be afraid!
I Love This Man of God!!!!! One Of My Heroes!!!
Likewise Jon Rogers
Spencer W Kimble was the prophet who lead the church when I first joined a long time ago now. It's lovely to watch these videos
Watching in 2022 🙌💯💞

When I was baptized
At the church of Jesus
christ of latter-day
Saints He is my prophet
I was part of his leadership
And the lord bless my life,
as i seek the lords kingdom.
Jesus is who I follow! Jesus is the way the truth and the life no man cometh unto the Father but by Him. Jesus saved me and forgave me of all my sins. And He has promised me Eternal Life.

He called me on my Mission. Loved him then; and even now.
He called me to the San Juan, P.R. and then ended up being the 1st missionary to the Santo Domingo, D.R. mission.

He is being so straight up and I love it
No interest in making beautiful words to not offend, a true prophet of G-d, straight to the point
I love the direct messages from President Kimball. There seems to be so much pandering and making excuses for sin/evil these days. We should all know when and what we are doing wrong.. forsake those bad things, instead of making excuses. Three years before i was born and this is still relevant 46 years later.

So obviously the truth!!!
Amen.
Follow the Prophet he knows the way.

Spencer W. Kimball, words still are valid, now. He is a prophet.
Amazing words!!! Hold fast the iron rod and obey obey obey!! Joy comes after obedience!!! The Lord knows and understands all things!!!!!
yeah, He knows you cant be obedient, and that only Christs sacrifice works to make us holy
"obey, obey, obey".
That's the same mantra Lil Kim of North Korea has Korean children chanting. I seems to work!!
His words are just as relevant and timely now, as they were then.
I love him... my mother grew up with him is safford, my land lady McBride in thatcher lived next to him, he sent me on a glorious mission, .... im single 20 yrs, and he tells it like it is!,,, God bless

Everything has its proper use
This talk was given in October 1974. Interesting to compare to today.
We would not hear this talk today from our leaders, I fear.
The closer we get to Joseph Smith the tougher the Prophets were
Started a quick playlist with Heber C. Kimball, then on to a quick talk by Heber J Grant. Rounding it off with this gentleman's discourse. God is good.
I really love this talk ❤

I think President Nelson is very sturn as well president oaks
I think they seem afraid to offend the world anymore .
@@chrisparrish6229 not afraid. Constrained. We have lost our freedoms due to wickedness.
@@natandjoeccould not agree more. We as a church are under condemnation. We don’t listen and the Lord has shut up the mouths of His prophets!
sooo true! loved it!
He spoke as a true prophet of God. I know he had the power of the Living God upon him.
Thank you Prophet Ezra. These are modern day prophecies in our world today.
when I was born this world 1976 he is the prophets of the world I am grateful for born his days I love him..
Amen
Bravo, bravo, bravo prophet Kimball, woh am I, for I am undone.
We must do what is right. We need to keep the Commandments.
Wow! We don't hear such sermons these days.
Sadly
So true in 2020
I feel like it's been a while since prophets have spoken like this. Am I wrong? Perhaps they've gotten tired of people not listening cause all it would do is just make so many people take to social media so idk but it was refreshing to hear.
This is like he’s talking of todays time. 7-19-2022
Prophets give us foresight but many times we can see their truths in hindsight.
This is definitely a message that Papa Ostler needs to hear again.
son profetas del padre celestial sin duda
I will for ever rever President Kimble . He was our profit when I became a member of The Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter Day Saints.
President Kimball LAID it _OUT_ !!
Oct. 1974
Wow. So this is where the face card thing is said in such clear command. I have heard people talk back and forth about the face card thing.
I will make a change.
When was this talk given? The date should be included in the description, so the talk can be looked up in the Ensign.
Try to look it up by title. Just knowing who gave thetalk helps, and if it was given in General Conference .
Oct 1974 according to the comm3nts
Love one another, as l have loved you! Says the Lord. ❤️🙏
11/11/22 Friday 7:39am

When was this conference address given?
October 1974
what about to eat meat sparingly
Fines
Tell me then who is he talking about I would say someone a lot smaller yet in numbers much bigger then you can understand
Is playing with playing cards really a sin. Is homosexuality in every form a sin? I thought the church's position was different than this
The Church's view on homosexuality has not changed. They may be more "tolerant" in some ways today, but, ultimately, the doctrine is the same.
"Gayness" is not a sin (the state of being attracted to those of the same gender), but we still hold homosexuality to be a sin or transgression. As for playing cards, I believe there is no problem with playing them in the right state of mind and heart. There is a risk, though, that playing certain card games will lead to gambling or overcompetitiveness. We therefore differentiate between Blackjack and Crazy Eights.
No,God is very firm on these things.
