Overcoming the World

Elder Neil Anderson spoke in April 2016 General Conference on “Overcoming the World”. In his talk, he stated, “Those who overcome the world develop an all-encompassing love for our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. His divine birth, His perfect life, His infinite Atonement at Gethsemane and Golgotha assured the Resurrection of each of us. And with our sincere repentance, He alone is able to cleanse us from our sins, allowing us to return to the presence of God. We love Him, because He first loved us. Overcoming the world is not one defining moment in a lifetime, but a lifetime of moments that define an eternity."

 Enos 1:26 And I saw that I must soon go down to my grave, having been wrought upon by the power of God that I must preach and prophesy unto this people, and declare the word according to the truth which is in Christ. And I have declared it in all my days, and have rejoiced in it above that of the world.

LESSON LEARNED: Overcoming the world implies a lifetime of effort that can bring cleansing of our sins and allow us to return to God.

FEEDBACK: WHAT DOES OVERCOMING THE WORLD MEAN TO YOU?
