The Scriptures in General Conference

When people quoted the scriptures in general conference, did any verses stand out to you? Here are the scriptures that were referred to most often.

Doctrine and Covenants 84:20

“Therefore, in the ordinances [of the priesthood], the power of godliness is manifest.”
Helaman 5:12*

“And now, my sons, remember, remember that it is upon the rock of our Redeemer, who is Christ, the Son of God, that ye must build your foundation; that when the devil shall send forth his mighty winds, yea, his shafts in the whirlwind, yea, when all his hail and his mighty storm shall beat upon you, it shall have no power over you to drag you down to the gulf of misery and endless wo, because of the rock upon which ye are built, which is a sure foundation, a foundation whereon if men build they cannot fall.”
Moses 1:39 *

“For behold, this is my work and my glory—to bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man.”
Moroni 10:32

“Yea, come unto Christ, and be perfected in him, and deny yourselves of all ungodliness; and if ye shall deny yourselves of all ungodliness, and love God with all your might, mind and strength, then is his grace sufficient for you, that by his grace ye may be perfect in Christ; and if by the grace of God ye are perfect in Christ, ye can in nowise deny the power of God.”
Mosiah 18:9

“Mourn with those that mourn; yea, and comfort those that stand in need of comfort, and … stand as witnesses of God at all times and in all things, and in all places that ye may be in, even until death, … that ye may have eternal life.”
