General Conference thoughts: Truth and the Plan and The Father
by President Dallin H. Oaks
and Brian K. Ashton
I have thought a lot about truth and specifically how two opposing forces can both lay claim to it. Shouldn’t there only be one victor? How can two opposite sides claim truth? Is there even such a thing as truth? How can I make sure I’m leaning on truth and not popular opinion?
