Time to get ready for one of our largest "books" of scripture.
Jumping into the Gathering. This is the first time we see the Kirtland Era referenced.
I am most excited to talk about the time that prophets have foretold: THE GATHERING.
The Saints are asked to do tough things. Like us we are asked to follow the Lord. I love how Jesus introduces himself here and we can rest assured, He is with us.
We often think of the last words of Christ on the Cross as sad, despairing, and signs of abandonment. I think there may be more here. Jesus quotes from Psalm 22. I think this is a response to the laments given by thousands over the years. The Lord responds that He is with us, we are never forsaken or alone. He suffers with us and for us. He has risen and we can, too.
I often forget how amazing it is that God speaks to us today! These sections remind us of them many, many ways God seeks to communicate to His prophet and to us!
The Spirit of Revelation is an amazing gift and one I love to learn more about - These sections give us a wonderful opportunity to do so. From seer stones to dreams, peace in our hearts, to using our intellect, God seeks to communicate.
This is a short but VERY powerful scripture retelling an amazing event. The prophecy of the Restoration of the Covenant, as Malachi, Isaiah, Joel, Amos, and Act (and Matt 17) in the visitation of Moroni in September 1823.
Join me as we jump into what happened and why Moroni repeats THESE verses to the Young Prophet Joseph.
We jump into D&C 1, the Lord speaking to us and all people.
This is bold, this is powerful.
It really reminded me of the Old Testament, Shema, (Deut 6:4–9, 11:13–21).
This is the Lord God speaking directly to us today.
Welcome back to a new year!
We're jumping into the background and intro to our new course: Doctrine and Covenants.
Let's learn about it -together.
1Mormon gives his final testimony.
We learn about the Atoning Messiah, the Covenant, and being a Remnant.
And those principles of the gospel are here?
Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ
Repentance of sins
Baptism by water
Baptism by the Spirit
I love Mormon's final testimony, to his people and to us.
We reach Mormon, the author, warrior, prophet's last writings. He speaks to his people, he speaks to us.
Let's find out what his main points are
oh, and THIS IS my very favorite LDS art by Walter Rane
I Even Remain Alone
We turn to the book we've been waiting for: 3 NEPHI where Christ visits the Americas.
In today's episode we look at the ALL ABOUT:
The What
The History
Pattern of Duality, Compare/Contrast, Light/Dark, God/Satan, Saints/Gaddianton Robbers
The Structure of the book, in 3 parts
including Temple theme and structure.
Join me as we jump into this exciting time when Christ comes!
Finishing up today on Samuel and Nephi, both prophets, paralleled in the Book of Helaman.
We will explore God's use of prophets, to warn and remind us of our covenants, but also ancient prophets, too.
1. Parallels
2. Tower/Wall
3. Repent and Remember. God is compassionate
4. Signs and wonders
Why does God allow for signs and wonders to be shown? Is this something we should pay attention to today?
Now things pick up in pace as we reach the appearance of Christ in the Americas.
Today, we learn of the prophet Samuel. He is a Lamanite, teaching in the capital city of Zarahemla.
Let's discuss:
Prophets
Names
Angels
Use of poetry
I really loved reading this OUT LOUD and hope you'll see some of the poetry and power of the Lord in Samuels prophecies. Ultimately, we can repent and return to Him, who loves and wants to welcome us back into His arms.
Join Scholar Jon Nelson as we jump into Helman 8-12, in Come, Follow Me.
Ever wondered why some scriptures seem familiar? How one prophet uses scripture to help us understand our present times? Jon explores some of the rich intertextual references in the Book of Helaman.
Today we reach a point where the wickedness of the people cause Nephi to lament. On his garden tower he mourns the wickedness of the people.
How are we like him?
What can we do to repent and turn to the Lord?
