This talk is a religious, doctrinal, spiritual, common-sense, masterpiece. Thank you Elder Holland! And condolences to you on the passing of your eternal companion. God speed Sister Holland!❤❤
Can you imagine the heartache and loss that could be avoided if more people today understood, and lived, what he is explaining here. Our world would not be the same. Our children would not be the same.
Thank you for you powerful words. You are right. It hurts the soul and it’s hard, so very hard, to learn and accept what you have done to your soul after you have done it. Even after you have repented and realize what’s Christ’s Atonement has done for me, it brought me tears that Christ had to go their for me. If I could ever warn anyone the effects it has on your soul. I would beg you, not to do it. I am happier now. I’m so very Thankful to say that I have come back to Church after many years. I am still working on going to the Temple but, I’m much happier because, I have the Guidance and support of my Bishop, Missionaries, my husband, my family, the beautiful Ward Members, Prayer, The Book of Mormon, and our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Your words are truth. 💛🙏😇
Sometimes the world confuses me, but I’m so thankful to have people who have such experience and gifts to speak in a way that really hits you in your heart, and makes you not just logic your way into doing what’s right, but FEEL like doing what’s right.
that understand part is very important. Most anti-Mormon (who still use that name because they don't want to admit that we Christian) will read the Book of Mormon hoping to find a "gotcha" moment. But they won't read it in faith that it can teach them about Jesus Christ, so they un-knowingly chase away the Spirit of God, so all they have is their own reasoning. I and you cannot truly come to a knowledge *and understanding* of who our Savior, God, and Redeemer Jesus Christ is without listening to the Holy Spirit. We cannot choose what the Holy Ghost is saying to us if it's inconvenient, or deny it if we are *actually* living a life that is worthy of the Spirit of God. I know Jesus is the Christ. The same one that is told of in the Holy Bible (as far as it is translated correctly) and the same one in the Book of Mormon and the same Jesus Christ, Heavenly Father, and the Holy Ghost that has been with me all my life. To know them is to truly live. To know Christ and return to God is the fullness of Joy, I testify of the validity of our Savior Jesus Christ to all of you.
Thank you Elder Holland, an open eye to every person to realise the blessing of been a man and woman and following the commandments of God we can create human life for His glory, 🙏🙏❤️
This is needed now more than ive ever seen. Hope everyone can take from this instead of acting like they havent lost anything which is far from whats gone on. And this was 10 years before i was born.
Elder Holland speech on January 1988 was a powerful back than even today September 2021 because it still happen . I think it is the best reminder to the young generations today.
A message like no other and unfortunately without putting our love of God first and foremost we can’t begin to appreciate souls symbols or sacraments. Thankfully my more complete love of God started at BYU. Oh that we could grasp it even sooner. Thanks be to God for His love and Atonement.
This should be the most watched video on RUclips! What an incredible sermon on the subject of chastity. This has the power, peace, and majesty of the subject itself. I love that he called out the false doctrine that chastity falls on the young woman and not on the young man. This applies to all ages, of course. Thank you Elder Holland and the Spirit for this beautiful gift.
One of our leaders even had spoken on the subject of some of those in the world who are promoting sexual sin and immorality. But does justifying their little sins lead towards salvation? No. I testify Elder Holland's message is true and powerful. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is true.
You might think it's not enough, or those closest to you seem to revolt against the advice, but to actually state it as fact, you just can't know enough people that well. You might guess but that's not fact, then. I do see why you would think the world is lacking so much morality and sexual purity but there are still those that wait and remain faithful.
This is so true! In a time where so many wake up to discover in their 30's they are alone and lonely, they have given away their ability to commit wholeheartedly to another. They have damaged themselves for years through poor sexual choices, and find they no longer have the ability to weld together, to become one flesh and one mind. They have built the walls around their heart. Only Jesus Christ can heal them, but it will take years to heal the damage of years of sin.
Jeffrey R Holland, I met and shook his hand on my mission, in September 1996, in the Nebraska Omaha mission, in the Omaha stake when they ordained the new stake presidency of the Omaha stake

This is one of the most powerful speeches I have ever heard.

Amen !
I was there in the Marriott Center when he gave this talk. Just as powerful and even more needed today. Thank you Elder Holland!
Not a single negative comment. I just read through every one. And that’s for good reason. Elder Holland is a truly incredible disciple.
One of the greatest BYU speeches ever given.
I really needed this today!
I wished I had a cellphone 😢 years ago before I turned 16
This is the GREATEST talk on Chastity I've EVER witnessed.😮
u should hear “Personal Purity”, an old conference talk of his. He pulls many of the same phrases from this speech for that talk.

Much love sister! 💕
Beautiful words. Thank you for sharing and God bless you on your ongoing journey.

I wish the whole world could hear this talk and understand it.

We can’t hear this often enough and has no age limit.
If only this message would be instilled in the hearts of every person of the world, righteousness would abound.
Thank you Elder Holland, an open eye to every person to realise the blessing of been a man and woman and following the commandments of God we can create human life for His glory, 🙏🙏❤️
I can’t express the breadth of feeling I felt when listening to this in any way other than saying I know it’s true. Thank you!
That is a powerful truth ..one of the great speech by elder holland
This is needed now more than ive ever seen. Hope everyone can take from this instead of acting like they havent lost anything which is far from whats gone on. And this was 10 years before i was born.

One of the best talks if all time. I love Elder Holland!

Extremely powerful!! Thank you Elder Holland!
Say it louder for the people in the back!! Holland went ham on this one. I needed to hear this foreal 🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️
Thanks for your comment!
This talk is one of his classics!

No. I testify Elder Holland's message is true and powerful. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is true.
There is no safety like the safety of the Gospel.
A revealing talk about celestial couples/celestial intimacy
Very powerful !!!Thank you❤️
Amazing talk. It enlightens my understanding about this topic.
Wow a timely speech
What a wonderful talk. I am going to hear it again and agian and send it to my friends.
Please do!
Reliving this speech in 2020, I can testify that no heed has been given to Jeffrey's words.
No heed? I testify that much heed has been given by many people in varying degrees, just not nearly enough.
I agree Steph. I agree.
You might think it's not enough, or those closest to you seem to revolt against the advice, but to actually state it as fact, you just can't know enough people that well. You might guess but that's not fact, then. I do see why you would think the world is lacking so much morality and sexual purity but there are still those that wait and remain faithful.
So relavent at all times and so powerful

W O W !!!

Thank you so much for uploading!!!!
So well done!!! Love it
When the devil hears Elder Holland's voice he runs for the hills 💚💐
Little wonder that brother Holland is an apostle of Jesus Christ.
Seriously, I kept wondering how someone gains the understanding that he has.
Amazing and powerful !
