Preparation for the Second Coming

I left the church when I was 14. I am 32 now, and so much has happened. I lost my faith, got it back again, looked for signs, prayed, and I am unable to go back to church because I don't have a vehicle to get there, but I have been watching these videos and conferences and testimonies. Very inspiring and my faith is back now more than ever. I feel good.

[@cumorahwatson1967]

Aww We don't have a car either. But l know, the Lord sees the secrets of our heart! So that gives me comfort l hope, it gives you comfort too.The Lord love's your small efforts, believe me. Glad to have you back!😊👏❤ Stay strong, my friend.

Ooh I know I'm 8 months late but I told someone once before. If ye have a desire the Lord will help find a way.keep praying and contact members to find some help.

Coming to church every Sunday is my favorite.I feel so much peace when I'm there and I hope you do too because your heavenly Father really does love you

[@blhbsit1251]

You can watch meetings from internet, phone or computer. Contact your ward and they will send you links. Hang in there. You will receive what you need when you need it. Not before, not after. My testimonies came randomly and not when I asked. Test of faith, prevail, receive blessing.

I grew up LDS. My fifth greatest grandfather was 3rd president, John Taylor. So it's ingrained not only in my maternal line but through Freemason teaching in my paternal line. Although Dad was raised Baptist from 1933 through growing up, he also was raised Freemason by my grandparents. He was a DeMolay in his teen years. He met my LDS raised Mom in 1969, a year before my birth. Since 1974, I was raised up for this day. The LDS website has further information on John Taylor also.

[@scootermom1791]

Exactly! It's incredible how quickly things have taken a turn for the worse and how it seems to get worse each and every day! The Lord isn't just quietly inviting people to come to Him before it's too late anymore. He's PLEADING with people very loudly and very obviously to open up their eyes and ears regarding everything that is going on around them He's shouting, "PLEASE humble yourselves enough to turn to Him and repent; to help others in need (no matter what their needs are); and to treat each other with kindness and love regardless of personal differences." He's not only pleading with others who are without religion, but also, and maybe even especially, with people who DO have religion in their lives. People who disregard the things they have learned and continually excuse their behavior as if they are the exception who don't have to do what they have been taught and commanded to do.

[@mariaboehme133]

I was baptize when I was 22 years old. That was in the year 1983. The year before that, I met the Missionaries. I know our Heavenly Father has called me to join in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints cause he heard my Prayer. I told Him I want to serve Him but I wasn't sure if the Catholic Church is the right place forcme to serve. So instead of being a Nun, I became GOD's Ambassador as a Proselyting Missionary and Self Reliance Sister Missionary. Then during my Mission I was privileged to meet and shooke hands with Elder Russel M. Nelson, Elder Dallin H. Oaks and other Apostles. I was really happy that President Russel M. Nelson and President Dallin H. Oakes became our Living Prophets including President Henry B Eyring. I know our Great Leaders are fore-ordained to become our Leaders in our Generation.And I am so thankful we receive all these Revelations for our Preparation in returning home to our Heavenly parents. And for our Family to be reunited. What a great day to look forward to. In Jesus Christ name, Amen.

[@Kevin-nr9hp]

Regarding Matthew 25 and the foolish virgins.. that is NOT doctrine for the Christian and losing their salvation. Christians CANNOT lose their salvation, but Jews during the Tribulation can because they’re saved by faith AND WORKS. The Church is considered to be the BRIDE throughout the whole Bible, not as virgins waiting to “meet” the Bridegroom Matt 25:1 “Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to MEET the bridegroom.” KJV There’s not a single member of the Body of Christ in this entire chapter. These “virgins” do not go to marry “the bridegroom” , they go to “meet” Him, because He is ALREADY married! Read Luke 12:36 “And ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their lord, when he will return from the wedding; that when he cometh and knocketh, they may open unto him immediately.” KJV The Bride of Christ is NEVER referred to as “virgins” in the plural; she is ONE Ephesians 4:4 “There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;” And we are ESPOUSED to CHRIST, and we are like a chaste virgin (singular) 1 Corinthians 11:2 “For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.” These “virgins” are mentioned in Psalm 45:14 and Song of Solomon 1:3 and 6:8 as SEPARATE from the Bride. Just the chapter before this one, Matthew 24:45 these “servants” are JEWS, not Christians. These Jewish, male “virgins” show up in the Tribulation in REVELATION 14:1-4 Their salvation is connected with WORKS (Revelation 12:17), which is why some of them can lose it This book is tricky, but you must rightly divide or you can live your whole life knowing wrong doctrine.

Love that Elder Oaks doesn't beat around the bush, and says it like it is. The better we understand where we stand with regards to truth, the faster we can change for the better.

[@dcarts5616]

We’ve all been treated to the directness of this crop of prophets and apostles. People used to yearn for it. McKay, Kimball, Benson, Hinckley, Monson, Nelson, Maxwell, Eyring, Oaks, Holland, *Packer*, Perry, Bednar, maybe Christofferson and many before are the last of their kind. Moving forward, after them, I feel we will be taught a watered down gospel for the weak, a lesser law if you will. Sad. So sad. I will miss this man!

[@williamsydnor3159]

For me it’s May 2024 and the first time I’ve heard this talk. It’s fascinating to listen to President Oaks talk 9 years ago and how much worse things are worldwide.

Magnify your church calling. Be willing to serve.

[@nathanbanks2935]

Hi Kevin, I respectfully disagree with what you say. You said that Christians cannot loose their salvation. Everyone especially Christians, need to keep the commandments of God to be saved. Christ taught, if you love me keep my commandments, if you love me feed my sheep. We also need to repent daily, in order to be saved. Since God knows everything, it would be much more logical that this parable would be applicable to the whole human family, rather than the very few Hebrew population, compared to everyone that would come across this parable and read it. Concerning the gracious sacrifice of Devine substitution that Jesus performed for each of us, it is only through him that we are saved, however we have to choose to access his grace through our faith. We have our own free will so he's not going to just force us to be saved by his grace. We have to fill our cup of faith with the water that comes from his fountain of Grace, to be saved in his kingdom. If we accept him with our lips only, but don't really love him, and love our neighbor as ourselves, our "faith," is fake. I hope this helps clarify some misunderstanding. God bless you!

One of best of President Oaks great talks! He tells it like it is, with great power and authority.

[@Logan-ji3xl]

I’m so grateful to have the gospel in my life, I love the Lord with all my heart and I love our dear Profeta Presidente Nelson and all those that labour with him I this great work here on earth in teaching and helping as to prepare for the second coming of the Lord , all I can say to those who are way from the church, came back believe in the words of the scriptures and voice of our living Profeta and you will find peace and happiness ❤️

[@normavery1845]

It is so inspiring to listen to people's experience who have drifted away from the gospel and left the covenant path and then returned. It is one thing to be courageous and stay on the path but it's even more courageous and inspiring as you hear people with the courage to come back and do what's right rather than refusing to admit they made a mistake. I have made my share of mistakes and found that it's much better to quickly admit and get back on the path so that we can have the comforting guidance of the Holy Ghost. I am so proud of those that share their experience, it builds my testimony. I Share my witness that I to know that this is the gospel of Jesus Christ. We are blessed with our Savior Jesus Christ who loves us and he speaks to his church through prophets and has blessed us with the second witness of him in the Book of Mormon.

I just love Elder Oaks and his sweet spirit :D

I met him in Thailand on my mission. And his sweet wife.

[@MrDJS444]

I don’t remember this talk when it was given. Regardless, it is only truer today than when Elder Oaks gave it, and nobody needed to hear it more today than me. Thank you, KZbin “genie”, for putting it in my feed today.

[@olgawhorton9658]

We the people who are faithfully to the Lord, will stand tall and firm in our beliefs.

[@JoeyFTaylor]

MrDJS444 I feel the exact same way! I really needed to hear this today! I was surprised to see it was 5 years ago as it so describes the state of our Earth today. I feel very blessed it popped up in my feed today. I needed to be fed 😊

Every word in this talk is true! I pray that I will get my act together before the second coming. I know our heavenly father and his teachings are true and the right way to follow..

[@guardianangel9517]

I had to re-watch this video. President Oaks reminds me of a spiritual LION! Strong and beautiful❤🧡💛 I had to pause it and do some repenting because I want to be READY for the Bridegroom 🙏🏼👍🏻💜🤍🕊

[@katiegardner9645]

So much truth spoken in this talk. Truly inspiring!

[@nancyarchibald9095]

The 10:00 minute mark going forward is profound. I pray that my temporal and spiritual preparations will suffice. I pray I'll be ready to lift and nurture others around me. God loves His elect. His remnant. Work to be counted in the ranks of His righteous believers. We have faith in the great Jehovah for He shall come as He has promised.

[@isaacabu4143]

I am really graceful for the powerful leaders that our heavenly Father has given to us To direct us in order live good life that can lead us back to the Lord

[@lilask2667]

These revelatory's words pronounced by President Oaks are so fresh and applicable today amid COVID-19. Thank you, God, for the living prophets talking on behalf of You.

[@vanessadelacruz3753]

All that are happening now are what God wants us to ponder and give heed that we have to start preparing ourselves for His coming. Thank you for all the revelations that we receive continually from our living prophet. ❤

[@kevincantrell8109]

Let's be prepared. Spiritual things await. Blessings and hugs brothers and sisters 🕊🙏

[@parkerplace2910]

I grew up on a farm. That taught me more than the church has ever taught me about being prepared and how to do it.

[@KennethRothey]

I feel that I am somewhat headed down the correct path yet I rejoice in this timely warning and know that I must continue on this path. Endure to the end!

[@ferris_wheel9868]

Need for preparation for the coming of Christ - spoken like the true witness of Christ that he is.

[@jensensharp]

I've had the oppurtunity to study finance and some of the intricacies within that profession. Many things are currently unfolding and it's been humbling for me to gain a cecculor point of view as well as a spiritual point of view for things that will come to pass. Times are upon us and though we may not know the day and time, something that has helped me to remain diligent and obediant in my covenants is the reassurance all will be made right through the atonement of our Savior. We are fortunate to have access to such divine truths and the proper steps to ensure our foundation is eternally solid. Remember one of the last things our big brother, our Savior, our Lord taught on Earth. "Love one another, even as I have loved you" stated three times to his diciples. Keep shining bright! Love and care from Arizona.

With all that is happening in 2020, this talk is ever so relevant! I know the gospel is true and the prophets of God are inspired! "Whether by my own voice or by the voice of my servants it is the same". Grateful for this! #SelfEvaluationNeeded

The single and most important thing we need to have at this time, the end of days is FAITH! Ask it in faith and it shall be answered for you!

KZbin wouldn’t stop recommending me this video. Guess it’s time to watch it lol

[@alexread7253]

May the Lord bless and guide the leaders of the only true church on this planet. Thank you Jesus thank you.

[@tdubs5128]

The Church is comprised of all people belonging to Christianity. It's not a single organization like the lds church. Any organization that says they are the only true church should be a red flag.

[@johnharvey4448]

Steven C The true and living church is the church Christ organised during His earthly ministry. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the restoration of that church in the latter days.

[@caseykaelin2352]

@@tdubs5128 if Christianity represents the church then God is the author of confusion.

[@samsmom400]

Jesus Christ is the TRUE church. He's not a religion, He's a relationship.

[@EarlGrey-YT]

@@tdubs5128 While I agree that eternal truth can absolutely be found anywhere, even outside of Christianity, the fullness of His gospel cannot be found just anywhere. And while I have attended many Christian organizations to gather truth and information, in the coming days I'll be glad to have the opportunity to follow the Lords apostles and a living prophet, called of God to be a mouthpiece for Him, who receives modern revelation from Him for our benefit. I, like many, would not have these opportunities had I closed my heart to the possibility, dismissing it's entirety due to my perceived red flags.
