#matriarch #patriarchalorder #womanhood #motherofallliving #mothereve #sacraments #ordinances #priesthoodThe Matriarchal Order--which sits alongside the Patriarchal Order--can be viewed (in part) as pertaining to the ordinances of the flesh. There are keys, signs, tokens, covenants, and ordinances that are under the eternal priesthood of the woman. We are not used to referring to ourselves as Priestesses outside of the temple, nor to the Priestesshood as it pertains to our mission as women. In this first part of a two part episode I will be sharing and reviewing a fascinating essay by Gwendolyn Stevens Wyne from the SquareTwo Journal,  published in the Spring of 2022. What are your thoughts? Do you agree that we are engaged in essential elements of a Matriarchal Order?❤️  ❤️  ❤️My Current work in Progress: Emerging from the Wilderness: Rediscovering our Mother in Heaven✨ ✨ ✨ ✨❤️ Join our Facebook community - Exploring the Divine Femininehttps://www.facebook.com/groups/937748690065723❤️ Follow this channel on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/exploringthedivinefeminine/❤️Follow my author channel https://www.instagram.com/ramonasiddoway/❤️ Follow me on Facebook author-- https://www.facebook.com/ramonasiddowayauthor/regular nutty day-to-day me--https://www.facebook.com/ramona.siddoway✨ ✨ ✨ ✨Exploring the Divine Feminine YouTube ChannelSUBSCRIBE NOW -- ExploringTheDivineFeminineChannel💌 Want to send me some happy mail?Ramona Siddoway27708 Tomball Pkwy #1049 Tomball, TX 77375✨ ✨ ✨ ✨About Me: ⬇️I am a nonfiction and fiction writer who absolutely loves research!

#priesthood #Mary #Abish #anointing #temple #womanhood #lifegiverJesus recognized Mary's act as an anointing connecting with his impending death. This is also when he said, “Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached throughout the whole world, this also that she hath done shall be spoken of for a memorial of her” (Mark 14:9).Join me as I continue my discussion of Mary's anointing of Jesus, the possible priesthood applications, the tie-in with a Book of Mormon event, and the sacredness of this intimate act.Articles I reference in this episode:https://www.byunewtestamentcommentary.com/jesus-is-anointed-mark-141-11/https://rsc.byu.edu/vol-13-no-1-2012/endowed-powerWhat about this story empowers you as a woman?❤️  ❤️  ❤️My Current work in Progress: Emerging from the Wilderness: Rediscovering our Mother in Heaven*️⃣ *️⃣ *️⃣ *️⃣❤️ Join our Facebook community - Exploring the Divine Femininehttps://www.facebook.com/groups/937748690065723❤️ Follow this channel on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/exploringthedivinefeminine/❤️Follow my author channel https://www.instagram.com/ramonasiddoway/❤️ Follow me on Facebook author-- https://www.facebook.com/ramonasiddowayauthor/regular nutty day-to-day me--https://www.facebook.com/ramona.siddoway*️⃣ *️⃣ *️⃣ *️⃣Exploring the Divine Feminine YouTube ChannelSUBSCRIBE NOW -- ExploringTheDivineFeminineChannel💌 Want to send me some happy mail?Ramona Siddoway27708 Tomball Pkwy #1049 Tomball, TX 77375*️⃣ *️⃣ *️⃣ *️⃣About Me: ⬇️I am a nonfiction and fiction writer who absolutely loves research!

This is also when he said, “Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached throughout the whole world, this also that she hath done shall be spoken of for a memorial of her” (Mark 14:9).Jesus must have known that it would not have been recorded without his explicit instruction to do so.Join me as I discuss Mary's anointing of Jesus, the possible priesthood applications, and the sacredness of this intimate act.

#Exploringthedivinefeminine #marymagdalene #churchofjesuschristoflatterdaysaints #ramonasiddowayI love learning about Mary and Jesus! In the Nag Hammadi library we have a curious statement by Jesus stating that he shall make Mary "male." While there are some unique commentaries on this, may I offer another suggestion that ties in with the "mysteries" of the kingdom and the temple?Here is the article I referred to in this podcast:https://latterdaysaintmag.com/article-1-10654/My Current work in Progress: Emerging from the Wilderness: Rediscovering our Mother in Heaven*️⃣ *️⃣ *️⃣ *️⃣❤️ Join our Facebook community - Exploring the Divine Femininehttps://www.facebook.com/groups/937748690065723❤️ Follow this channel on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/exploringthedivinefeminine/❤️Follow my author channel https://www.instagram.com/ramonasiddoway/❤️ Follow me on Facebook author-- https://www.facebook.com/ramonasiddowayauthor/regular nutty day-to-day me--https://www.facebook.com/ramona.siddoway*️⃣ *️⃣ *️⃣ *️⃣Exploring the Divine Feminine YouTube ChannelSUBSCRIBE NOW -- ExploringTheDivineFeminineChannel💌 Want to send me some happy mail?Ramona Siddoway27708 Tomball Pkwy #1049 Tomball, TX 77375*️⃣ *️⃣ *️⃣ *️⃣About Me: ⬇️I am a nonfiction and fiction writer who absolutely loves research!

Welcome to Part two as we discuss women, priesthood keys, witnesses, and resurrection. I go over the recorded instances of women as Special Witnesses of Christ and the interesting archetypes in the scriptures of women, goddesses, and their ties to resurrection. The resources that I used are as follows:* Alma 18-19* Kevin and Shauna Christensen, “Nephite Feminism Revisited: Thoughts on Carol Lynn Pearson’s View of Women in the Book of Mormon,” FARMS Review of Books 10, no. 2 (1998): 18.* https://knowhy.bookofmormoncentral.org/knowhy/what-does-the-abish-story-signal-about-the-resurrection#footnote4_emkedh9*     *     *   Email me at ramonasiddoway@gmail.com*     *     *You can buy my book We are Adam at Amazon or CedarFort.You can also listen to my book on Audible.Visit my website: ramonasiddoway.comSign up for my newsletter and get a free workbook here.Connect with me on Facebook @ Ramona Siddoway-AuthorHave a Divine Day!!

In this episode I discuss how we do not have all the priesthood keys as of yet. Some of those we are not given in this earth life and must wait until we are on the other side, and some cannot be used except by a Divine Pair.Links to information about future priesthood keys:https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/general-conference/1977/04/our-great-potential?lang=enghttps://www.ldsliving.com/elder-and-sister-renlund-tackle-the-myth-that-we-have-all-the-ordinances-for-exaltation/s/87989*     *     *   Email me at ramonasiddoway@gmail.com*     *     *You can buy my book We are Adam at Amazon or CedarFort.You can also listen to my book on Audible.Visit my website: ramonasiddoway.comSign up for my newsletter and get a free workbook here.Connect with me on Facebook @ Ramona Siddoway-AuthorHave a Divine Day!!

In this episode I discuss three important identities we possess as women in the gospel of Jesus Christ, married or not, children or no children. It's important to search for and understand our true identities and not let the disempowering philosophies of the world suffocate or render us powerless.The scripture I refer to is 3 Nephi 9:20 when I discussed how we may not always feel the spirit or our Heavenly Parents love the same way as other people, or it is blocked because of mental illness or because of the way we are wired. That scripture says: the Lamanites "were baptized with fire and with the Holy Ghost and they knew it not."*     *     *   Email me at ramonasiddoway@gmail.com*     *     *You can buy my book We are Adam at Amazon or CedarFort.You can also listen to my book on Audible.Visit my website: ramonasiddoway.comSign up for my newsletter and get a free workbook here.Connect with me on Facebook @ Ramona Siddoway-AuthorHave a Divine Day!!

Join me as I discuss Wisdom as a real person in Proverbs 8. Women have in their DNA a part of Heavenly Mother, Heavenly Father, and Jesus Christ. A big part of that DNA is keeping our family and anything we create in harmony, in tune: binding relationships together in a way men cannot.*     *     *What are your thoughts on Elder Rendlunds talk?Email me at ramonasiddoway@gmail.com*     *     *You can buy my book We are Adam at Amazon or CedarFort.You can also listen to my book on Audible.Visit my website: ramonasiddoway.comSign up for my newsletter and get a free workbook here.Have a Divine Day!!

I continue discussing what King Josiah and his religious elite removed from the Bible and the temple. I touch on what trees symbolize in groves and the temple, including the anointing oil for taking on us the name of Christ--the anointed one--as sons and daughters of Heavenly Parents and of Jesus.Let me know where you are listening from.

I continue to share my research on the Mother in Heaven. Adding on from the last episode about what King Josiah removed from the temple and the national religion. There is a big difference between the first temple period and the second temple period. We see in Lehi's vision what the religious elite tried to silence and delete. Two main points to look out for in this episode and in your own scriptural study of Lehi's vision:1)  the very first two images that Nephi is shown in response to trying to understand the vision is Mary--a single woman--and then a woman holding a baby, the son of God.2) One of Nephi's first acts in his new civilization was to build a temple AFTER THE MANNER OF SOLOMON, this first temple period, before the changes were made.I love this stuff.

In this episode I finally start sharing my research! We have to go back to the two temple periods in Israelite/Biblical history. This episode has a lot of dates so don't get tripped up on those! This is just to give the listener a better historical timeline as to when the intense purge of temple rituals, ordinances, and the Queen of Heaven took place. There is strong evidence this is one reason Lehi's life was in danger and why he was commanded to flee Jerusalem.Don't hesitate to contact me with any questions or comments!*    *    *You can buy my book We are Adam at Amazon or CedarFort.You can also listen to my book on Audible.Visit my website: ramonasiddoway.comSign up for my newsletter and get a free workbook here.Have a Divine Day!!

In this episode I discuss how the Israelite high priest wearing his ephod ties in with Adam as high priest ties in within our own marriages, especially those in the temple and the Melchizedek priesthood.Presiding is SO MUCH MORE than calling on someone for the prayer!

In this episode -- longer than what we are used to -- I discuss the creation narrative from Genesis and Moses; the creation of the earth and Adam and Eve. I also discuss how we are made in the image of our Heavenly Mother AND that there is evidence in the Bible of a Divine Mother, a Queen of Heaven, a Heavenly Mother who works side by side with Heavenly Father. She was very much involved in the creation of the world and of Adam and Eve.Please subscribe on your favorite podcast platform and leave a review!You can leave a comment or request for a future podcast discussion at ramonasiddoway@gmail.com or visit my website at RamonaSiddoway.comPurchase We are Adam at Amazon or CedarFort.

Everyone, at some point in their life, feels like they are in a holding pattern, waiting for that specific, personal promised blessing. Listen as I discuss a remedy to that feeling, as we are meant to live with joy now, rather than living with a "placeholder" mentality.*   *   *Please subscribe on your favorite podcast platform and leave a review!You can leave a comment or request for a future podcast discussion at ramonasiddoway@gmail.com or visit my website at RamonaSiddoway.comPurchase We are Adam at Amazon or CedarFort.
