We must stand up for truth, even while we practice tolerance and respect for beliefs and ideas different from our own. Because followers of Jesus Christ are to be in the world but not of the world, we must seek tolerance from those who hate us for not being of the world.

Sep 12, 2011 · In an address to young adults on 11 September titled “Truth and Tolerance,” Elder Dallin H. Oaks of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints spoke of four key principles that should govern religious participation in the public square.
Jesus Christ demonstrated the proper attitude towards tolerance for others when he rescued the woman who was about to be stoned for adultery. He told her he did not condemn her—because final judgment comes after death, not during life—but he also told her not to sin further.
Although not an ancient term, the principle of tolerance is readily expressed and exemplified throughout the Savior’s earthly ministry. Tolerance is found in His commands to be meek and merciful, to be peacemakers, and to rejoice when “persecuted for righteousness’ sake” (Matthew 5:5–12).
