Stand Up for Truth | Gordon B. Hinckley | 1996

[@atyehatyeh6257]

He was one of my favorite Prophets, great sense of humor, approachable, humble. I can still hear his voice in my head don't be so hard on yourself don't look so gloomy everything is going to be okay

[@delmariecrandall9229]

His wife was also a real gem.

It’s like hearing from an old friend. The friend you know will love you no matter what.😊

[@SadieRTrego]

The would have to be one of the best talks have listened to from a Prophet ever. Thank you for these talks they really help me want to draw near to God his Gospel and Church. 💗👍☺️

[@delmariecrandall9229]

I'm a convert from the Protestant church and have always remembered a sister's statement that President Hinkley was her favourite. She told me that a few years before the death of President Monson. Well, I have listened to SO many talks and I get so much vision of what is good and needed when I listen to President Hinkley. He was truly God's very special servant. I am grateful that technology allows me to view and listen to him as if he were here today!

[@leswalker2639]

I feel the same, what a great speaker even funny a lot of humor. He has always been my favorite prophet even when he was a apostle in the Quorum of the twelve. I have listened to many speakers that speak to the BYU students. That must be a privilege to be able to listen to motivating speakers. I don't know how many times they get to listen to great speakers if it is every week or month. I probably listened to several thousand speakers for BYU. And feeling inspired to be a better person after listening to all those who speak, the men and women! I love them all.

What a great talk! Its amazing how relevant the Prophet's teachings are almost a 1/4 century later! Thanks for posting this today. I hope all members of the church can join together in standing up for the principles of the Gospel and the values of the Church of Jesus Christ.

[@germainrandrianasoloniaina5929]

I was not a member at the time but now I feel that what he said is true. Thank you president, we are now members. you are no more but we always love your word. You are my great one.

[@JessicaOrban3606]

I love him, he was the prophet of my childhood

[@ofelia829]

This is just wonderful. Such an inspiring talk. The best: all that youth listening in such active way. What is right is just right regardless people agreeing or not with the doctrine. Wonderful. I am so grateful and thankful for my conversion. Thank you for uploading. 🍃

[@dlsdelessemusic]

This talk could have been given two weeks ago. Heed his words! Love President Hinckley!!

[@ninalynn9a]

Even though given years ago, this theme remains critical to our Nation’s strength and success today: Leadership, as described by this man, is Key to happiness and survival. I’m sending this on to three of my favorite leaders.💗

[@suzishealthyhome8678]

I miss him and Elder packer. straight down the line and so inspiring.

[@delmariecrandall9229]

I hearkened back to when I graduated from UVIC in BC, Canada. I was not a member of the church then, though Christian. I am still ever so grateful I got to attend and to go on with a wonderful career in teaching special needs. Wish I'd known of BYU then. The students and faculty were sooo blessed to hear this challenging and most direct speech from President Kimble.

Muy inspirador,so amazing❤

[@leswalker2639]

Excellent speaker and motivator, president Hinckley is one of my favorites. He's Old enough to know what he's talking about. I believe every word he speaks no doubt in my mind.

[@Natalie-lovesGod]

To those who read this. You are Worth whatever effort it takes! You were worth dying for, and still are! Worth doesn't equal worthiness. You've worth doesn't change even if worthiness does. Worth is given because you are a son or daughter of a loving, living God. Worthines has to do with our free agency. He will not take our will; will is the only thing we can truly give Him, for he has everything else. See-"Value Beyond Measure" by Joy D Jones

[@mattbrazil18]

I never remembered him from my life since I was really young but I have listened to talks from him and he's amazing! His sense of humor is great and he is a true disciple of Jesus Christ! It's amazing that we have prophets and apostles such as Elder Hinckley that share the message of Jesus Christ with all! I bear my testimony that Jesus Christ is our savior, he gave his life and willingly underwent every pain just so he could know how to succor us! Is it not just magnificent that we have a savior and heavenly father who love us perfectly! I know these things are true and I testify of these things in the name of Jesus Christ Amen!

[@mattbrazil18]

Thank you for this comment it's a great reminder 👍😄

[@RamseyDewey]

I listened to this talk live back in 1996. I have remembered it ever since.

[@JazzyUnderscoreTrumpeter]

That's awesome

[@CalledtoShare]

Such a phenomenal talk - and exactly what the world needs today!

[@chocolate271208]

If I have a son someday, I would name him Hinckley. He is my very first prophet and his teachings about Jesus Christ have carried me through very challenging times of my life. Thank you so much, dear Prophet Gordon B. Hinckley. 💌💌💌

[@joshuasmith2689]

He talks a lot about fighting against our changing culture. "It is a battle for right and wrong," he says. "Stand up for truth in a world of sophistry." "Our moral compass cannot come from some abstract liberal concept of the village" Gosh, and these warnings were from 28 years ago.

[@joshuasmith2689]

"Be loyal to the Church. Stand tall for it. Defend it. Speak no evil against it. It is the work of God. He that ridicules it or defames it offends Him whose church it is. It carries the sacred name of the Lord Jesus Christ. It is as a wonderful mother to each of you in whose arms you find shelter, comfort, warmth and security. Who's on the Lord's side who? Now is the time to show. We ask you fearlessly. Who's on the Lord's side who?"

[@pa-alayonko.center4444]

Thank you for touching the Doctrine of Moralogy in the Government System of Moralogy that were Presented to us in the pre-mortal existence President. Hope we could used it in our life here on earth. Thank you for everything you do for our Life growth here on mortality.May God be with you tell we meet again in the feet of our Father in Heaven.

[@nancyhaynes249]

He was an awesome prophet of God

[@josephshumway]

I love him, the prophet of my childhood. This talk was given just after my parents were married. I was born two years later. I am the oldest

[@mattbrazil18]

That's really cool!

[@pa-alayonko.center4444]

Thank you for talking about the doctrine of Fatherology Government system President Gordon B. Hinckley.

[@Lion_McLionhead]

Was in the audience. Sadly not on camera.

[@ildenete3235]

Esta é uma época de coisas maravilhosas da lealdade e amor de Deus e Seu povo o poder da verdade na Terra alcançar com a luz que irradia na escuridão o Evangelho Restaurado, a época em que todos os profetas da nossa dispensação, anseiam a vinda do Senhor e estão sorrindo, e vemos os profetas que estão mortos, e estão vendo através do véu

[@johnnyharrison3953]

U really enjoy listening to history and the enduring messages

[@JT-du3fx]

Was truly a seer and prophet of God. This talk is timeless

[@davidrichardson9952]

Man truly open to truth and the voice for the same

[@scottvance74]

I attended this one in person. Truth matters, and people need to stand for something as Hinckley noted. I find it more than a little ironic that those who stand up for truth find themselves excommunicated (september 6, etc). This speech was given when the church was actively hiding so much of its history. We need to all stand up for integrity. When there is a conflict between integrity and the church, how many members are willing to stand up and tell the truth - or for that matter take the time to find out what is true? I am truly disappointed with both the church and its members. Gone are the days when either could make a compelling claim that they cared about integrity and morality.

[@pauladawson5779]

Dear Brother Vance, I pray that you might find peace and the answers you seek! Your Heavenly Father loves you and will answer "all" your prayers in His perfect timing!💞

[@williamturner6192]

Dude, we have all been told to study for ourselves, we are responsible for our own study, they didn't hide it but there are many who didn't study as soon as they should have. I was late to it myself but it was on me.

[@FromAgonyToLight]

Those days aren't gone, but the current leaders have taken a more gentle stance.
