Jeffrey R. Holland: A General Conference of the Church is a declaration to all the world that Jesus is the Christ, that He and His Father, the God and Father of us all, appeared to the boy prophet Joseph Smith in fulfillment of that ancient promise that the resurrected Jesus of Nazareth would again restore His Church on earth and again come in like manner as those Judean Saints had seen him ascend into heaven. This conference and every other conference like it is a declaration that He condescended to come to earth in poverty and humility, to face sorrow and rejection, disappointment and death in order that we might be saved from those very fates as our eternity unfolds, that with his stripes we are healed. This conference proclaims to every nation, kindred, tongue, and people the loving Messianic promise that his mercy endureth for ever.
