An Apostle's Easter Thoughts on Christ

One of the great consolations of this Easter season is that because Jesus walked such a long, lonely path utterly alone, we do not have to do so.

I'm so thankful for this video because it has helped me, and now one of my non-member friends watched it & she understands a little more of what General Conference/The LDS Church is like:)

Our world is so in need of the savior's love and light. It is so simple to follow him and to love one another, yet, we complicate the way. He so reaches in love no matter what our weaknesses, yet, we reject him and then blame him or God for the mess in our world or the mess we made. Then it finally suits us to say, there is no God! That is unfortunately how- a big part of- the world has become. God lives and Jesus Christ atoned for our sins. Merci elder Holland!

Cotronixco what faith are you?

Resurrection Sunday? I think not. This is a good video but the Son's third day occurred on the Father's seventh day. This is no coincidence. The Son will rise to power over His millennial kingdom while the Father rests. Holy week (history also - we are in our 6th day) was 7 days long. The Lamb was chosen on Sunday, killed on Thursday, and resurrected on Saturday. This is something tradition missed completely, but it is very important for us to know.

brings you to tears to know that our savior had to suffer for us. Any time you think you are not good enough or broken, remember that you were important and precious enough for our savior to die for you. Truly lets you know that you matter.

In school, I dont have LDS friends around. This is my junior year. I know there are others out there just like me, and to them I say to remember, as Christ walked alone for us, we must walk alone for Him.

I remember when i watch this conference it really struck me hard!i always hear about the atonement but what got me was how he said he stood utterly alone!Even when he bleed from every pore&cried from the pain how God was in agony that even he could not protect his only begotten son from all the Pain & sin he took upon himself so WE could return to him by the power of repentance!how great his pain i know when i feel alone& sinned im not alone! jesus know how i feel cus he suffered my sins as well

It's true. I testify it's true. I know it.

Thanks, Elder Holland, for sharing your testimony. :) I join mine with it.

I am proud to be LDS. I am not old enough to serve a mission yet, but I am preparing. Christ lives. He loves us all and we must stand by him because he stood by us even until death.

Elder Holland's talk has brought me closer to the Savior. I know that he lives! And I know that he came to the boy Joseph Smith on that clear morning in New York. I also know that the Savior came to my people in Hawaii. We are decendents of the house of Isreal. We were scattered unto the isles of the sea. All of Isreal was scattered. Not just to the North, but the the South, East, and West. My people knew of Jesus Christ and was waiting for his return. We still are! For He will be here soon!

Elder Holland is inspired and so eloquent. I love this gospel, and I am so grateful that Christ died for me.

All that we know would be lost without the atonement. Not a day goes by that I don't think of its significance in some way. I hope my (valiant) life and gratitude is sufficient, because I know no one will measure up 1:1, if Gods' grace and mercy were removed from the picture.
