Drawing Closer to the Savior | Neil L. Andersen | October 2022 General Conference

Elder Neil L. Andersen speaks at the 192nd Semiannual General Conference of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints on October 1-2, 2022.
Elder Andersen teaches that we can prepare for the Second Coming by making covenants and strengthening our commitment to the Savior.
Seeking to know and love the Savior, we separate ourselves from the world through covenants with God, being distinct, uncommon, and special, without isolating ourselves from others who believe differently.

Elder Andersens' analogy of the wheat growing up along with the tares ; needs also to concern us,that what is going on underground with the root system keeps our attention.

Elder Andersen's words Regarding keeping our Covenants and staying in tune with all that we know individually about the gospel the greatest gift we have is that of the Holy Ghost to guide us in help us make correct decisions that will lead us on the path to eternal life with our Father and his Son Then subsequently with our families bound together through our Temple ordinances.

[@patrickrose567]

Elder Anderson is having trouble. He can't keep a straight face. Does he know something we don't .😇

[@lorraineheggie4416]

I noted those little smiles as well.. I think it is the all encompassing JOY he feels when expressing the teachings and promptings he knows to be true and he has a hard time concealing it.

[@angelinavickers8584]

It’s a gift beyond price, demonstrating the mercy, kindness of our Father!

[@Laura_toggsgirls]

We must protect defend and Unite and love our brother and sisters ♥️ the end! Jesus said wars and evil will grow more it will increase

The Holy Spirit truly guides. I always thought I was proud of who am I but yesterday, I was thinking to myself that I'm not afraid to talk about my love for kpop, anime, or kdrama in fact I'm pretty loud with it but then I realize that I'm not so loud with the gospel. Everyone knows that I am a Christian but not a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I started to think why is that. I believe it's the negative reaction I normally get from people but is that a problem? Which also cause me to build this defensive wall. Whenever someone asks me about the church I immediately go into defensive mode because I believe they are coming with something negative. Which I am now working on changing. so why do I not stand proudly? I also get a negative reaction for like Asian entertainment and I never seem to care so why do I care regarding the church, a church that has blessed my life so much that words aren't able to express. I didn't get the opportunity to get to listen to Conference so I have been listening to each talk for my morning devotional, and when I log on today this was the talk recommended to me by KZbin hence why I say the spirit guides. The same topic I was pondering is the same question that I was asked in this talk "Do you dare to be different?" There is no doubt in my mind that this gospel is true and that I'm in the right place so yes I dare to be different and I will never falter away from that ever again. I am a proud child of God and a proud member of The Church of Jesus Christ. I say these things in Jesus Christ's name Amen.

Beware O tares! May I always honestly strive in discipleship to be among the wheat!

[@marykaquitts1238]

Hosanna praise God for our disciples of Christ and oh how sweet is the spirit divine from the moment Elder Neilson mentioned the wheat we are tender I felt like wow 😲 he's full of the Holy Ghost 👻 with fire 🔥 I surely felt the spirit I was hoping to be in the conference and in spirit I was in the name of Jesus Christ Amen Stoney Nakoda First nation ( White Sheep Woman) Kiska thuhweyuh

[@leswalker2639]

I can't imagine not having the leadership and the Church of Jesus Christ and these words of wisdom coming from the leadership of the church. Like no other Church can speak with great power and authority from on high, you know without a doubt these words come from our savior our God and Jesus Christ directing his people. It would be nice if the world could listen to these words and reminders coming from president Nelson and the 12 apostles. It feels like the Lord is in his ministry right now on Earth and we have His prophets Sears and revelators just like when our Lord was upon the Earth teaching them. Can you imagine the Lord walking upon the earth now with these Great Men teaching all of this, blessing to sick and afflicted as they move from City to City. We will always have the unbelievers hatred all around us, with despiteful words and criticism as we walk with the Lord and his disciples just like an old days. What more could you ask for to walk with Christ and his prophet and the 12 disciples😊

[@jojolly1154]

This Conference was so Uplifting..and So Filled With The Spirit and Gospel. I Listen to the Talks Especially Our Prophet and Some Others Over and Over. All of The Conferences are Special But This One was Just So filled with Words and Spirit I know Came from Heaven. So Thankful to be a member of this Glorious Gospel of JESUS CHRIST of Latter Day Saints. IN HIS HOLY NAME JESUS CHRIST AMEN

[@brentgarner3143]

Great word very encouraging!! Thank you

[@darlenepedersen4145]

Some are saying that our dear apostle seems to be struggling, take heart, following the promptings of the Spirit as one conveys our Lord’s will and messages is a truly humbling responsibility, and to be in such close communication with Him, out of gratitude does bring sacred emotions. This talk is an absolute direction by a humble servant of His Gospel of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Thanks to all who have given from the depths of their souls heartfelt talks as they bear witness of Him.
