April 2013 General Conference – M. Russell Ballard

The source of the priesthood power is God Almighty and His son, Jesus Christ.

The power by which the heavens and earth were and are created is the priesthood.

Men and women have equally and valid roles.

The power of the priesthood is a sacred and essential gift of God.

The power of the priesthood should be used to succor the weak, lift those who hang down and strengthening feeble knees.

Men and women have different but equally valued roles.

In the eternal perspective, both the procreative power & the priesthood power are shared by a husband and a wife.

Just as woman cannot conceive a child without a man, so a man cannot fully exercise the power of the priesthood to establish an eternal family without a woman.

The Christian virtues of love, humility, and patience should be their focus as they seek the blessings of the priesthood in their lives and for their family

The work of Jesus Chris is accomplished through the priesthood.

The same priesthood power that created worlds & galaxies should be part of our lives to bless and strengthen friends, family & neighbors.
