2 ottob 1976 anni - "To Young Men Only" [Part 38]

Descrizione:

“There is a falsehood that some are born with an attraction to their own kind, with nothing they can do about it. They are just ‘that way’ and can only yield to those desires. That is a malicious and destructive lie. While it is a convincing idea to some, it is of the devil.

“No one is locked into that kind of life.

“From our premortal life we were directed into a physical body. There is no mismatching of bodies and spirits. Boys are to become men—masculine, manly men—ultimately to become husbands and fathers.

“No one is predestined to a perverted use of these powers.”

To Young Men Only (also known as "Message to Young Men") is a Conference talk delivered by apostle, Boyd K. Packer on October 2, 1976, at the priesthood session of the 146th Semiannual General Conference of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

The message is addressed to young men of the Aaronic priesthood and discusses issues of human sexuality, puberty, and morality.
Unlike most general conference talks, "Message to Young Men" was not published in the Church's official magazine, The Ensign, instead, the talk was published in 1980 as a 14-page pamphlet, entitled "To Young Men Only.”
