Why is it important
for us to know that we have a prophet on the earth?
Well, if we didn't think that we
had a prophet it would be hard. If we didn't really
listen to our prophet, then we wouldn't be able to live
the gospel as well as we can when we listen to him. That's great counsel, Pearl. Beautiful. Anyone else? Do you have any other thoughts? Why is it important? It's important that
we have a prophet because if we didn't
have a prophet, then we wouldn't know what
to do, what not to do, and what we could
do to do honor. That is true. That is so true. So are you telling us that
it's important to follow the prophet? Yes. Why? It's important to
follow the prophet because if we didn't
follow the prophet, we could start to stray
away from the Church and not do as many things like
read the scriptures every day. And if we stopped
reading the scriptures, we would stop really
thinking about the Church and any other time
about the Church. And it would just become kind
of annoying to go to the Church, and you might even
eventually stop. Hmm. That wouldn't be good, would it? Any other thoughts? Why do you follow the prophet? Why is that important? Yes, Nathan. So, it's important because
you can follow him. And if you follow him, you can
live in the celestial kingdom. And you will be happy
with your families. And you'll be super happy,
and you can live forever. President Nelson, would you
ever lead anyone astray? Oh, no. That's not what
prophets do, is it? Some of them have said, if
the President of the Church should ever lead people astray,
God would take him away. So I'd like to stay here. And I won't lead you astray. Do you know what the
word prophet means? He speaks for God. And so, God won't
lead you astray. And the prophet will
not lead you astray because God loves you. And I can tell you that
the prophet loves you and the children like
you all over the world. You're just beautiful. Thank you so much
for your goodness.
