Be Ye Therefore Perfect-Eventually

[@guardianangel9517]

I'm thankful for president Holland. He is a faithful servant of Jesus Christ and helps bring peace to my soul. He is a definite scriptorian and a Defender Of Truth 🫂🙏🏼🤺💜

[@jilldowding-walker8066]

"nobody can shop that much"! Oh how I love this man and the gifts he has with words and abilities to interpret and expound the scriptures to be relatable to each of us. Dotted with humour and liberally sprinkled with encouragement! We must not listen to our inner critic, we just must try our best.

[@tmadsam]

This man is close to perfect! He is so close to being like Jesus, and I feel that his words make me believe that I can improve every day. I love Elder Jeffrey R. Holland. I love his talks. Every one of them seems to be directed to me. And now that he has lost he beloved wife, and he's in the hospital, I'm aware that Heavenly Father could very well feel it is time for Elder Holland to come home. While I understand he has earned that privilege to join his wife, I selfishly don't want to lose him. I keep all of his talks because every word he says is important to me and to others. There are some talks that make me cry every time I hear them. Elder Holland makes me feel that I can be better. His telling me to never quit, to keep going, keeps me motivated. I love Elder Jeffrey R. Holland!

[@lindaphillips1157]

Thank you, Elder Holland! I know that you are a living example of the song, “I’m Trying to Be Like Jesus”. You are a good and godly man. Thank you!

[@PSW-bz4vj]

This mesaage helped me so much this morning. I literally bully myself everytime I sin or even when I don't sin. That causes doubt, fear, anxiety, and eventually depression. This message soothed my mind and heart, and all those things left my mind. I finally feel relaxed. I wish i waired before sinning because i know God had me run across this message. He helps us even when we feel like we arent worthy.

[@mes3331]

I love this man who is always bold in his testimony of Jesus Christ.

[@rickfarr8491]

This talk by President Holland and elder Uctdorfs you matter to him are talks that I’ll never forget as long as I live.

Thank you Elder Holland, with all my heart, thank you.

[@christiangibbs8534]

Christ bore the burden of perfection, because He knew that there's no way that we can.

[@amandastakeonit7402]

This is so tough! Although, I love Jeffrey R Holland, and will back EVERYTHING he says and believe it too. Yet, putting this all into practice seems so daunting. I need to listen over and over! What I do know is to try to do better each day and if I fall get back up and do better the next day and always be on the path of improvement. I want to do better than that, to be perfect.

[@jamesanthony897]

I’m a new convert. Just a one year old toddler Latter Day Saint. I have understood many mysteries of God and now better understand this conundrum of our faith much better. Like Paul who said, those things I should do I do not and those things I shouldn’t do I do. We are human but we have an Atonement that is very powerful. I am progressing. I am thankful!

[@Tytan-Enactor]

I know you’re comments a bit old. But it touched my heart. We’re all on this spiritual journey together 👍🏻

[@pererau]

The judges on American Idol always loved saying that their favorites could "sing the phone book" and they'd love it. Well, Elder Holland could probably go up on stage and read the phone book and I'd love it, but not only does he deliver his message so well, but it always seems to be what I needed to hear. He loves to give the message of comfort to the weak, and that is certainly me.

[@kats5035]

Ohhhh I absolutely love to listen to Jeffrey R Holland . when I hear him speak you know that he definitely is an apostle of our Lord ,what a wonderful human being he is ...sometimes I feel like he is just speaking directly to me. And he is so humble and you just can feel the love that he has for all of us . I am so grateful that heavenly father loves us enough to give us his servants to help guide us home.

[@jenfira]

I needed this talk tonight. Elder Holland always gives such a great talk. I am a very imperfect convert going on 20 years. I am the only member in my family. It's tough. I feel I must prepare for battle everyday just to hold on. This talk was so helpful and inspiring and what I needed to hear and reflect upon. Thank you so much Elder Holland. The church is true. We have a living prophet and apostles on the earth in our day just like the days of Noah, Adam, and Abraham. The heavens are open and God lives. Jesus Christ is my Savior. He invites to come unto Him.

[@sevinoq]

just stay strong and have faith! you got this i believe in you!

[@influentialwomen1]

Hold on! I was the only member in my family too! And then my mother joined. Just hold on. Look unto me in every thought. Doubt not, fear not. Doctrine and Covenants 6:36 I believe in you and I believe in Jesus Christ and he is with you every step of the way. Involve him in all that you do and you will be all right. I promise❤️

[@toottootimmadolphin4936]

WOW!!! Are we NOT led by men called of God to teach His words!!! The entire world including myself will only gain peace, joy, understanding, revelation by the holy ghost to live our very best, I never use the word perfection because to me it is not humanely obtainable and we are not asked to be perfect in this life...... we are to seek & love and act as the Saviour did and with His help( repentance and the atonement) and in the next life become perfected as He is! Beautifully said thank you brother Holland for praying and listening to what the Lord wanted to tell all his children!!!! So amazing!!!!!!!!

[@bobbyc.1111]

Thank you just what the Dr. ordered. amen

[@johnpatteson8271]

From a person who is trying to repent, fail, and tries again. I feel like a failure and far from the goal of my repentance jerny. My hope is that God will understand and love me and judge me according to that love. I have faith all this work and failure is worth something in some small level.

[@theneet]

He's awesome how he gets all up in your face! Kinda reminds me of Brigham Young when he said, "Shall I tell you the law of God in regards to the African race? If the white man who belongs to the chosen seed mixes his seed with the blood of Cain, the penalty, under the law of God, is death on the spot. This will always be so."

Kari Taylor first off, cursing is not the worst thing a person can do. Second, lecturing somebody on a minor display of vulgarity is certainly NOT the way to help them come unto Christ. “Be ye therefore perfect EVENTUALLY” Get over yourself.

Not almost. It is.

[@iiphil74]

The meaning is this. When we die in order to be in the presence of God you must be perfect with no sin no blemishes. That's it, The only way u can be perfect is through the blood of his son Jesus. Once you accept his son as Lord and savior u become perfect. Jesus said the will of God is that you believe in the one he sent. The bible is a spiritual book, the living bible. The Holy spirit will reveal all the scriptures meaning. God bless

[@troyterry6919]

That is no true. Otherwise Stephen's stoning makes no sense.

[@scottbrandon6244]

Try reading the book of Mormon, it will make you realize you are wrong.

[@guardianangel9517]

They aren't wrong because the Bible is true and so is the Book of Mormon

[@guardianangel9517]

God bless you too

[@milliesal5684]

"Be Ye therefore Perfect, even as your H. Father in Heaven is." A verse the IDS take to mean they need to earn their way. I know he says you won't earn it but the 3 degrees of glory plan is an earned system. But what does it really mean? "That we may present every man PERFECT IN JESUS CHRIST." Colossians 1:28 How does one become Perfect? Through Christ. It is his redeeming blood that gives us a remission of sins so that we are not condemned. . "There is no condemnation for those who are in Christ." Romans 8:1 Surrender your life to Christ and let him transform you and he will make you HIS righteousness. God is the Potter and you are the Pot. Let him make you what he wants you to be and stop trying to earn your way. "For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him." 2 Corinthians 5

[@guardianangel9517]

Elder Holland specifically talked about the grace of Jesus Christ. don't put false words in his mouth

Anyway from what I am seeing they,be defaulted. Ok so stop fear. Is dead up stairs with us big boys or as he once portrayed himself peace

[@malarkydeeznuts3391]

it's just interesting how the world still believes it could be my son come on but to top it i am still not gay

[@Moore-s5p]

Did he say eventually? Why is that in the title?

[@mycrazyfamilyid]

Tia Moore Because that is the totle he chose for his talk. It's that way in the Ensign and on the Church website too.

[@troyterry6919]

Because becoming perfect slowly but surely means that it will be a permanent change of heart.

[@malarkydeeznuts3391]

So in code he said I Mr c am in prisioned by the Thompson family for eternity this church just cannot accept the fact that I dropped the faith I hold no debt to them not then not ever

[@theneet]

I love how he dishes out tough love! Oh, and speaking of love, I LOVE this quote from Brigham Young: "Some classes of the human family... are black, uncouth, uncomely, disagreeable and low in their habits, wild, and seemingly deprived of all the blessings of the intelligence that is generally bestowed upon mankind. The first man who committed the odious crime of killing one of his brethren will be cursed... the Lord put a mark upon Cain, which is the flat nose and black skin." THE CHURCH IS TRUE!

[@isabelladowney6411]

Christopher Bradley I'm sorry but does that not seem a little racist to you? The curse of black skin? What? When was it ever a curse to have black skin? Does that mean African American people today are cursed?

[@dadjohnson2331]

jesus said to go your way and sin no more, this guy's voice will lull you to sleep, but he is not correct. Because by the grace of God when can do all things thru christ who strengthens me. do not settle for the lie, live in perfection, that means live in God's Spirit.

[@troyterry6919]

You are a fool. I guarantee you can't read the book of Mormon all the way through and deny it. I have watched hard core atheists think they will prove the book of Mormon wrong and then fail.

[@scottbrandon6244]

Watch the talk again. What he spoke of is the gospel of Jesus Christ, found right in the scriptures.

[@lunchlady0636]

First

[@robpaulson7992]

He's not saying these things to make church members feel better about their own (relatively minor) personal weaknesses and imperfections. He's saying it to help the members feel better about the (much more significant) words and actions of church leaders who have led the church astray and caused members to question their testimony. Over 50,000 people resign from the church every year over major concerns, such as the church's policies on race, gender equality, treatment of LGBT people and their children, lack of financial transparency, problems with church history that the church has suppressed, problems with the book of mormon, the book of abraham, etc. These are major problems that cannot be simply overlooked as minor human foibles, because they go to the heart of the church's truth claims.
