"The First
Presidency cannot claim, individually or collectively, infallibility" (Gospel Truth: Discourses and Writings of
President George Q. Cannon, 2 vols. [Salt Lake City: Deseret, 1957], 1:206)
"I make no claim
of infallibility" (Spencer W. Kimball, Improvement
Era, Jun. 1970, 93).
"We make no
claim of infallibility or perfection in the prophets, seers, and
revelators" (James E. Faust, Ensign,
Nov. 1989), 11).
"So be kind regarding
human frailty--your own as well as that of those who serve with you in a Church
led by volunteer, mortal men and women. Except in the case of His only perfect
Begotten Son, imperfect people are all God has ever had to work with. That must
be terribly frustrating to Him, but He deals with it. So should we. And when
you see imperfection, remember that the limitation is not in the divinity of
the work" (Jeffrey R. Holland, "Lord,
I Believe," Ensign, Apr.
2013)
"There have been
times when members or leaders in the Church have simply made mistakes. There
may have been things said or done that were not in harmony with our values,
principles, or doctrine" (Dieter F. Uchtdorf, "Come
Join With Us," October 2013 General Conference)
