Jesus Christ-Gifts and Expectations | Ezra Taft Benson | December 1974

[@suzannestanton9477]

I love how he asked, "Do our hands show the signs of our being in His service?" For surely, Jesus Christ's hands show the signs of having been in ours. He loves us, but do we love Him?

[@guardianangel9517]

Pres. Benson is one of my MOST admired prophets from the past. His love for Jesus Christ & His Truth is WONDERFUL, and so is his love for America & the Constitution of the United States of America. I love listening to Pres. Benson's talks. ALL are INSPIRING ❤🤍💙

[@joscelynpease6656]

My thoughts and feelings as well and excellently expressed!

[@peggybogar3059]

We are about to vote in Australia. It would be nice if Ezra Taft Benson was a candidate, it would make it very easy to know who to vote for.

[@Jan-wd1is]

Wow, this is for our time! Its so refreshing to hear straight truth spoken without fear. The Book of Mormon is a sifter. I found this out myself when I joined the church.Thank you President Benson!

[@Tao_Peace]

I’ve heard many many talks in my life, but, this talk right here, right now is majestic! Thank you President Benson. You truly were and are beautiful!

[@rawiniaclarke5168]

Love Listening to the encouragement of the Prophets. The love you gain , from these talks is like a encyclopédia of religious wealth.

I love this great man. This ☝ talk sets the tone for how to live the gospel of Jesus Christ.

[@zissler1]

People keep asking why don't we hear talks like this, he answers that very question at 14:04, it's called the samuel principle. If we tell the seers what to do they aren't telling the seers, but God, and he allows it to happen so we live with the coincedences and have to deal with it. It's called the Samuel principle. Isaiah 30:10 - "Which say to the seers, See not; and to the prophets, Prophesy not unto us right things, speak unto us smooth things, prophesy deceits"

[@liznino7911]

The words of the prophets are the words of God.

[@marysallymokuau6000]

Yes and aman

[@duanedorman6134]

[@cumorahwatson1967]

Jesus Christ gave you, and me, the ultimate gift of life eternal. Because of His Son's sacrifice, we are not only saved from death, and hell. But also, from our own weaknesses! My heart is full of gratitude! for l know, lam truly saved because of them. ❤🙏

[@GAILandROD]

...I am really enjoying listening to this Prophet again. He really is a wonderful man and leader and prophet....and really knows first hand how government works....and our country. I will always honor him for putting the Book of Mormon more in the forefront of our lives....

[@robertthompson3447]

I listened to one of his messages last Monday and it was just as on point today as it was when he gave it 50 years ago.

[@iknovate]

As I grew up margarine was on our table because butter was too expensive. That was because the government pushed the price up by buying lots of it (and then gave it away). This was to artificially prop up the failing dairy farmers. Even though Secretary of Agriculture, President Benson was against this policy, but had to carry it out. He was a brilliant economist. I love reading about his life

Thanks for the spirit of GOD bestowed to all the chosen members of THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST OF LATTER DAY SAINTS specially the LEADERS who are now speaking in the pulpit from the past up to the present.

[@trishb1081]

This is a treasure to hear Pres Benson talk about our constitution and our fathers of freedom.

There is no god but God, Muhammad is the Messenger of God, Jesus is not God and is not the son of God, rather he is the Messenger of God O Christians, read the Noble Qur’an, for it is the word of God. , was not distorted. Jesus was born of the Virgin Mary, and we Muslims believe that Jesus is the Messenger of God.

[@craigpayne3881]

Like all great Prophets President Ezra Taft Benson was a great spokesman of God and powerful witness of Jesus Christ and the good news of His teachings. I love President Bensen for the great patriot he was and and the great love of America that defined his life.

[@patriciaconklin7654]

I am so happy that I got the chance to hear President Benson speak.. today Because when I joined the Church in 1993. He was ill and I never saw him in person, or talk it was wonderful I believe all he said.

[@phililemkhwanazi7504]

Give God your best touches my soul. Thinking of the boy his dad died but with the help of the Savior,was able to give God his best. I am reminded to press on the seeking divine guidance against emotional disturbance.I am grateful to Heavenly Father for receiving teaching of the word of the doctrine of Christ in both sides of the veil.God wants us to succeed in making a difference in lighting the world , with the help of the Savior Jesus Christ.

[@spencerharmon681]

Amen. That was awesome

[@ladyjade6446]

So blessed to be able to hear these talks. Thank you.

[@hollyrowley923]

I love president Benson and how his words motivate me to be better.

[@natm.7073]

Wow!!

[@rh3307]

Just awesome. He gave a talk for our day 45 plus years ago.

[@ohbutillspittle]

Somehow, I am drawn to his talks...I feel like the Prophecy of the "Elders of Israel...bearing-up the Constitution from the brink of ruin"...is near. I feel an urgency within my own being to stand forth and bring others to this standard: We must also fight for the life of this nation...and express ourselves boldly against those who would destroy the Constitution. I pray we all will have that kind of courage.

[@Jan-wd1is]

Just think, this was given in 1974!

[@novanicolasadriano]

We thank thee for a prophet really abig gift from god for they guide and teach people how to know him and obey his commandments with faith and trust and work for the knowledge of Christ through eternal life

The link to our website is always in the description of each video. Here is this one: speeches.byu.edu/talks/ezra-taft-benson/jesus-christ-gifts-expectations/ Also, what is your native language? We are currently working on translating speeches into Spanish and Japanese. If you speak one of those, I can put a request in for this speech. -Ryan

What an amazing, wonderful, spiritual and motivational, inspirational talk that I've heard in a long time. Love President Benson!

[@guyeros]

Un discours formidable d'un homme de Dieu, nourrit de l'Esprit Saint et de la lumière du Christ, oui j'aime la beauté de l'évangile du Christ car ce n'est pas une philosophie d'homme mais une prédication palpable pour les nations et pour ma personne. C'est exactement cet amour des paroles qui deviennent chair et te prennent aux tripes pour changer ta personne et sacrifier ton entendement pour une vie meilleure celle du service à l'éternel des armées. Merci Président Benson pour ces paroles inspirées et cette invitation de connaître notre Père Céleste à travers son fils Jesus-Christ et à travers son livre sacré "le livre de mormon". Une vérité qui résonne encore plus fortement dans notre esprit à cette époque de tribulations ou les philosophies des hommes et la politique nous tirent vers le bas. Oui cette Evangile du Christ et les fils de sion, seront relevés leur nation pendant que la constitution des pères fondateurs est prêtée à confusion par des hommes insensés.

[@brooksdsnstudio]

This is my first time listening to this talk, and I'm listening to it a 2nd time today! This is a testament to the everlasting truths of the gospel of Christ!!!

[@virginia6158]

Amen! Perfect timing for me to hear this talk again. I alwats love to listen to Pres. Benson!
