- Elder Wirthlin's talk on the Great Commandment from October 2007 with Elder Nelson supporting him during the talk.
Elder Wirthlin’s family later attributed his noticeable shakiness to locked knees. After then-Elder Russell Nelson helped support his friend through the talk, you can hear Elder Wirthlin’s “Thank You.”

ALL THOSE THAT HIT THE THUMBS DOWN. MAY JESUS BLESS AND PROTECT YOU
When I look at how Elder Wirthlin endured so he could give us this message, it makes me want to take it deeply to heart. It is truly inspired.
A man of God !
My thoughts exactly.
Yes!
Inspired.
Yes! Great observation thank you
I remember this talk so vividly. It was so beautiful and inspiring.
I remember praying for Elder Worthlin during this. This we the last conference on my mission. And I remember the mic capturing Elder Worthlin saying Thank you to then Elder Nelson. Thank you for leaving it in the cut!
If memory serves me, I was in the MTC watching this. We all felt the love of God and His son Jesus Christ rush into that room as we watched this great act of love! What a feeling it was to be there with 14 thousand missionaries as this apostle of the Lord bore his testimony and another apostle of the Lord stood to show his love and support for his fellow apostle.
Thats my great grandad!!!!
Elisabeth J How wonderful! You must’ve had a wonderful great granddad!!! I remember this talk! Was it his last before he passed on? This brought tears to me, because of his age and the struggle he was having giving the talk and having Elder or President Nelson come up and stand and hold him... so very moving. And that was the pure love of Christ!
How wonderful:)
You are Blessed
Lovely for you
Incredible words of love from christ spoken through an incredible man who carries the holy spirit for ever. So powerful, and I felt that wonderful peace that the spirit carries through his so well spoken words. You are blessed to have this man as your great grandfather. 🕊❤🙏
I was at that session and it's my most powerful memory from any general conference. Everyone there was praying for him and then we saw one of the Apostles get up and support him and it made the spirit there even more powerful; though I didn't remember who the other apostle was until seeing this video. So cool to see it was President Nelson. I'll never forget it and now I'll never forget that it was the current prophet of the Lord Jesus Christ.
I wasn't there in person, but I remember watching it on TV and just praying that someone would hold him up. Heavenly Father answered many prayers that day when he Pres. Nelson stood up to help him.
@@MSBowen-pk6ww This is from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The structure of this church is the same as Christ's church when He was alive, with a prophet and 12 apostles.
That is so cool that you were there! Wouldn’t that be something!
@@MSBowen-pk6ww Apostles live today. Christ has once again called apostles to lead His church, as well as a prophet of God. Together they give us commandments and offer blessings from God for the great changes and challenges that are taking place in the world. I know this is true by the Spirit of the Holy Ghost, and you can as well by reading The Book of Mormon, Another Testiment of Jesus Christ, and praying to know of it's truth.
❤❤❤… The grace and gift and blessing of final, ultimate, eternal perseverance be with us all. Forever and forever.
In 1985 Elder Wirthlin ordained me a Bishop. I remember this talk well, and by the end of it many of us who loved him were bearing him up with Elder Nelson. Come what may, and love it!
I hope that in that moment, as well as when President Monson was struggling during one of his October talks, they felt our prayers and support. I’m sure there were millions of us praying for them.
It made me tear up he is bearing testimony of prophets and here is a prophet literally holding him up the way prophets do. 🥰
Heather K. A prophet holding a prophet
Actually actually he was talkin about the pure love of God
@@MSBowen-pk6ww Great Question. It is Because he is the only one to hold all the ordained keys that are the same as the Prophets of old. He is what is known as a Prophet, Seer and Revelator, which means the Lord works directly with him through Revaluation so the Prophet see’s, reveals, teaches and testifies of all the truths of the Jesus Christ for all mankind to know. He is called to serve the Lord as the Prophet for all the Lord’s children in this day. This is not his professional aspersions, he is a world renowned heart surgeon, this calling as the Prophet is a heavy responsibility and seriously demanding service, because he loves the Lord and loves his fellow man (and woman;), and wants us all to truly know the Lord.
@@MSBowen-pk6ww We have a hierarchy of leaders with bishops the first leaders (besides our parents) and are similar to pastors. Bishops are led by Stake Presidents, whose leaders are members of the Quorum of the Seventy, then the Twelve Apostles, then the Prophet, then The Lord Jesus Christ.

I am in tears. Beautiful example and testimonies from both men.
Thanks for listening
I remember feeling bored during this talk. I didn’t pay attention until he started shaking. I felt so guilty that I didn’t listen sooner. But God got His message across, whether I listened or not. He just had to make us pay attention with this display. It taught more than many words, just as Elder Wirthlin said. No poet or orator can describe love the way action does.
Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
I'm an inactive member of the church for about 14 years I happen to be on u tube this morning 06/04/2023 and this was incredible to watch. I still love the church and it's members very much.
:)
I’m not mormon but this was beautiful.
Thanks for the comment Jeremy! Glad you enjoyed the video.
Such a beautiful tender moment 💗🙏💗
I remember when this happened, I’ll never forget it. Such a simple act of pure love, and what a strong testimony; I want to be more like these great men! ❤️
I thank thee Lord that thou preserved this Apostle so he could give thy message to us. Though his body was shaking and trembling his spirit soared like an eagle!
"There is no pain it cannot soften, no bitterness it cannot remove, no hatred it cannot alter." Writing this out at 1 AM, another late night because of chronic pain. I know there is no pain His love cannot soften. Through His love and the love of my wonderful family, I can find peace despite pain.
Amen and Amen!!! Love you brothers and sisters,. Blessings wished for you,🤗
Thank you for sharing this beautiful talk. I always feel a peace when I listen to Elder Wirthlin. 💙
I love and miss him so much. His talks were always gold. 🧡
I was at conference during this
Yes I do too.
Hope he is fine
I was 3 months old when this happen, and I do not remember Elder Worthlin at all, but now I love him, and this was a beautiful moment. President Nelson is a great man and a prophet of God. The talk was great too. So basically everything about this was beautiful.
I was a teenager and have remembered this moment very clearly ever since. I remember crying at the love Elder Wirthlin was portraying as he was so determined to stay there to deliver his special message to us out of his love for us and the Lord. His love expressed here as he spoke about love has stayed with me.
I’m crying at the love that President Nelson has and how he shows the true love of Christ.
So touching! You know President Nelson said a prayer for him to help finish his talk and give him strength. He almost completely stopped shaking by the end. Got something in my eye 😭.
I have tremors like this. I understand how he felt. My son said," God chooses his Prophets and this was one reason God chose President Russell M. Nelson as our Prophet" God bless him.
I remember that talk. It is more powerful to me today than back then. A talk filled with, delivered with Love from a wonderful Apostle of the Lord.
Seriously the greatest conference talk ever currently on my mission and so glad I was able to watch this
I was deeply touched when I saw then- Elder Russell M. Nelson walk over there to support Elder Wirthlin. I feel the love he has for his brethren in Christ Jesus ❣️
That was such an amazing testimony/talk, it made me tear up. Just remember God is with us.😊❤❤
"By their works ye shall know them". President Nelson was not called to be the Lord's earthly executor because he was A physician who repaired the physical hearts of his fellow sojourners through morality, he was called to be the Lord's prophet because he is acquainted with THE Great Physician who heals what we cannot!
Amen!!🙏 well said!!
Very true. I loved that simple act of kindness. It lit my heart 🥰
Brian, I am going to share this video on my facebook page, and would like permission to share your comment. I would be happy to give you the credit for your powerful words. Thank you so much for sharing your words of wisdom.
President Nelson was a fantastic and admired physician. He did two of my fathers open heart surgeries. Unfortunately his third was done by somebody else and he passed away two weeks later. 😍❤ I miss my dad so much!!!
@@Mommabear2u2 yes, it is so hard to lose one to death. It hurts because of the temporary separation. But we are so blessed to have the plan of Salvation. For or oldest brother Jesus Christ and for the Gift of the Holy Ghost, and knowledge we have. We must continue to share it all our days. Families,, friends are forever!!
😭 I love President Nelson so much!
Yes we even love and forgive those that give this video a thumbs down.
That person was probably just having a bad day. :)
Many who dislike don’t dislike the video but simply want to tell the RUclips algorithm they want to see different videos on there home feed
The Prophet literally had his back 😇😭
He sure did!
@@CalledtoShare thanks so much for this content!
:)
I watched this in real time and many times in video since. Elder Wirthlin's amazing talk of love is truly manifested in his life and then to have his dear friend President Nelson support and love him, well, it always brings tears. Love CAN change the world. It's beautiful to watch true love before our eyes.
The most beautiful talk for most beautiful moment💙🙏🏽💙
I remember watching that talk and thinking that was the kindest gesture I've ever seen.
Wow! I'm a so speechless! What a wonderful example!
You are so kind
I wept and got humbled by the powerful words and above all when President Nelson stood by him as a pillar of strength 😢... God leaves and bear witnesses of his pure love for me, you and everyone in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen
I remember when this happened at conference and how weak he was just before this and I had the opportunity to help him at the Nauvoo Temple when he was visiting his brother. He spoke with the spirit and love and hope for all.
Ok you got me. The tears wouldn't be held back on that one.
President Nelson showed us how to take care of our brothers and sisters. Please take care of your elderly family members because of them you are here.
Elder Wirthlin's message is humbling - indeed love is eternal.
"Often the greatest manifestation of love are the simple acts of kindness and caring we extend to those we meet along the path of life."
No greater words were spoken and manifested by both these men of God.
Their words+ their actions say it All..
Amen.
That is so my favorite....... talk about serving with all your might, mind, and strength and enduring to the very end!!
To his last breath he always testified of the love for his Savior and redeemer and i remember this but i forgot that it was President Nelson that assist him by example we should know them. Such a tender moment. Thank you for reminding us of this both great man.
Touched by His testimony...Thanks for sharing😊
This is a man of God, that truly knows his Savior, and has charity for all. I felt the Spirit so strong. I hope and pray to be like this Apostol/mentor.
President Nelson's whole professional life has focused on changing hearts for the better. That day two identical sermons were taught.
I miss him so much ❤️...this makes my heart ache to watch...yet burst with love for them both. I'm so grateful for this gospel.
I am so touched by his love.
That was beautiful, Touching, and inspiring! I Iove both of these men!!
Me too!
I could listen and watch this video over and over again.
That’s my bishops grandpa!! Such an amazing and spiritual man❤️
this is the best video in the world!
Gosh..! He spoke with a heart plenty of wisdom...The day I get to heaven I do wish to sit on a bench and have a conversation with him.I'm sure my soul will rejoice listening to him.
Beautiful. Thank you.
Amen 🙏 that was an especially sweet moment ❤️
The world needs more , so much more of this love. Two amazing men who understand love.
Thank you for posting this! This is so beautiful, the words that Elder Wirthlin said back then! And so beautiful that he was willing to get up in his advanced and older age to give this talk in conference! So selfless and Christlike…
That was touching, just imagining all the years these prophets served together ❤️❤️❤️
TWO WONDERFUL MEN OF GOD ..........SO TOUCHING TO SEE THIS LOVE BETWEEN THEM.
when you are old most likely you want to rest and be at peace, but this man choose to instead bear his testimony of the love of good with the lasts ounces of energy he had, with all the weight of a lifetime over his shoulders he did not stop until he said his simple message.
Well done they good and faithful servant.
@@roseslipper8305 they are the men of Faith, We all are to served Our Loving Heavenly Father nomatter what in sickness n health.we are all Brothers and Sisters children of our Loving Heavenly Father. Who help ,lift each other forever Eternally Amen 🙏,
This is the best!
This talk is from the October 2007 general conference, the talk is titled, “the great commandment”
How great is his glory... that God gives his love so freely.. God bless Elder Wirthlin
I love that you could see Elder Wirthlin physically shaking, by the end of the talk the shaking had all but subsided. i look forward to meeting all the Apostles and Prophets in the hereafter.
I’ve always looked forward to meeting the apostles and prophets in the hereafter, and how wonderful that will be! And especially Jesus Christ!!! ...I hope I can wet his feet with my tears.
Truly inspired.
so beautiful ❤️
please pray for me and my friend Nizhoni
I remember that. It was so sweet, special, and you could feel Father's love for his 2 sons, and all of us.
I have no excuses not to speak in church now.
Man, I thought the same thing.
Well, it was his job so 🤷♂️
I know, right? We've started going back in groups of 30 and my biggest fear has been being noticed and asked to speak. I have a history of fainting and gastrointestinal distress when asked to do so.
And sharing it over Zoom to those not in the chapel makes it worse. Camera....
Lol
aw it terrifies me. No, we dont have excuses. We have reasons that are most likely unsound. Our hardness on ourselves & fear. Fear of what is the question. When we allow jyst this kind of sweet spirit to guide us, we simply cannot NOT Speak. ❤
Love your enemies and have the pure love of Christ might have a whole new understanding for us in the coming weeks.
Absolutely!!
That was so beautiful. ♥️ I feel that love and hope I can always reach out to others around me and help them feel loved to, just like Elder Russel M. Nelson.
We are called to love Christ with all of our hearts and minds. We are also called to love our neighbor. We all have difference of beliefs or morals but at the end of the day we are bleed red.
Inspiring talk😊
I was watching that tender moment and I will never forget it. It was a teaching lesson for all of us and I know that both men were greatful and it was so wonderful to see.
Beautiful!
I love the beautiful message he gave us I so love him
I remember at the time thinking that it made sense that President Nelson reacted as quickly as he did. As far as I know he’s the only one with any medical training.
❤️❤️❤️ I love Elder Wirthlin so wise. I do love our Prophet too 💛💜💛
The greater the measure of our Love, the greater is our Joy 💓
Love that!
Ah yes. I love this video. I did the subtitles and uploaded this to Gathering Zion a couple years ago.
Brad, thank you. We added that attribution in the video description. Do you have any other videos like this? They are seen by so many and we love to share them with the world. Thank you for doing such a great job.
This really shows that both of those men are indeed testators of Christ and that Russel M. Nelson is the prophet and president of this church at this time. May we all Come unto Christ and be perfected in Him. This is my testimony and I say these things in the name of Jesus Christ. the Master Healer, amen.
Amen and amen
Powerful
This man is smart
And in despair I bowed my head
There is no peace on earth I said
For hate is strong and mocks the song
Of peace on earth good will to men
Then rang the bells more loud and deep
God is not dead, nor does he sleep
The wrong shall fail, the right prevail
With peace on earth, good will to men
tears
I am my Brother's Keeper❤.
wow❤️🙏Amen😇🙏
Very emotioal

This is so beautiful! Thank you so much for sharing. We are doing a virtual Primary meeting this Sunday where I have recorded our Primary children singing I Feel my Savior's Love. Would there be any chance that you would allow me to have a copy of your video and add it to our presentation to end our meeting?
