I love General Conference!! As this weekend approaches, I have been thinking about the great messages from April. I like to re-listen to conference during the months after the broadcast. I feel like I receive many answers to prayer and comfort. Join me today as I share some quotes that I loved from April 2021's General Conference.
“A general conference of the Church is a declaration to all the world that Jesus is the Christ, that He and His Father, the God and Father of us all, appeared to the boy prophet Joseph Smith in fulfillment of that ancient promise that the resurrected Jesus of Nazareth would again restore His Church on earth and again come in like manner as [those Judean Saints had] seen him [ascend] into heaven’ (Acts 1:11). … Conference … is a declaration that He condescended to come to earth in poverty and humility, to face sorrow and rejection, disappointment and death in order that we might be saved from those very fates as our eternity unfolds, that ‘with his stripes we are healed’ (Isaiah 53:5). … Conference proclaims to every nation, kindred, tongue, and people the loving Messianic promise that ‘his mercy endureth for ever’ (see Psalm 136:1).”
