More quotes by Dallin H. Oaks
The ultimate defining fact for all of us is that we are children of Heavenly Parents, born on this earth for a purpose, and born with a divine destiny.
Dallin H. Oaks
We should recognize that the Lord will speak to us through the Spirit in His own time and in His own way.
Dallin H. Oaks
A good marriage does not require a perfect man or a perfect woman. It only requires a man and a woman committed to strive together toward perfection.
Dallin H. Oaks
We urge persons with same-gender attractions to control those and to refrain from acting upon them, which is a sin, just as we urge persons with heterosexual attractions to refrain from acting upon them until they have the opportunity for a marriage recognized by God as well as by the law of the land. That is the way to happiness and eternal life.
Dallin H. Oaks
Those who enjoy the blessings of liberty under a divinely inspired constitution should promote morality, and they should practice what the Founding Fathers called civic virtue.
Dallin H. Oaks

Dallin H. Oaks
It is Christ's atonement that makes it possible for us to be forgiven of our sins and His resurrection that gives us the assurance of immortality and the life to come. It is that life to come that orients our views in mortality and reinforces our determination to live the laws of God so that we can qualify for His blessings in immortality.
Dallin H. Oaks
Healing blessings come in many ways, each suited to our individual needs, as known to Him who loves us best. Sometimes a ‘healing’ cures our illness or lifts our burden. But sometimes we are ‘healed’ by being given strength or understanding or patience to bear the burdens placed upon us.
Dallin H. Oaks
And so we understand that the atonement of Jesus Christ gives us the opportunity to overcome spiritual death that results from sin, and, through making and keeping sacred covenants, to have the blessings of eternal life.
Dallin H. Oaks
You can never get enough of what you don't need, because what you don't need won't satisfy you.
Dallin H. Oaks
Service that is given with little or no thought of personal advantage is an ideal to pursue for a lifetime.
Dallin H. Oaks
Man's laws cannot make moral what God has declared immoral
Dallin H. Oaks
I expect celibacy of any person that is not married.
Dallin H. Oaks
All of us should banish hateful communications and practice civility for differences of opinion.
Dallin H. Oaks
The principles stated in the proclamation on the family are a beautiful expression of this gospel culture.
Dallin H. Oaks
The most powerful teaching of children is by the example of their parents.
Dallin H. Oaks
Spirituality is not a function of occupation or calling. A scientist may be more spiritual than a theologian a teacher may be more spiritual than an officer. Spirituality is determined by personal outlook and priorities. It is evident in our words and actions.
Dallin H. Oaks
When we have a vision of what we can become, our desire and our power to act increase enormously.
Dallin H. Oaks
When all other hope is gone, our Father in Heaven provides the Lamb of God, and we are saved by his sacrifice.
Dallin H. Oaks
The ultimate treasures on earth and in heaven are our children and our posterity.
