That quote from Ezra Taft Benson first came from Glenn Lawrence Pearson: That a man does not understand why they need Christ until they understand the fall. He went as far as to say that one can not understand the atonement without understanding the fall.
I think the correct interpretation of what is meant by "a skin of Blackness came upon them" is the literal..."it CAME UPON THEM," Not "they put it upon themselves." While perhaps they didn't have a word for tattoo, they did have an explanation for the idea. You remember the amalicits placed a mark upon their skin or themselves this was most likely a tattoo. Occams Razor. The simplest interpretation is most likely the correct one. Nephi was smart and wrote plainly enough to say what he meant.
my grandfather Glenn L. Pearson was the first who taught that 2 Nephi 25:23, "after all we can do," had the meaning of "in spite all we can do." I have a research paper that he wrote under the direction of President Ezra Taft Benson in 1981/6 where he taught about justification and the grace of Jesus. He taught Book of Mormon at Brigham Young University for 26 years. and was on the missionary Committee of The Church.
I TRUELY love and learn from your scripture discussions. I feel a (hopefully obvious) need to clarify the discussion on tattoos for today's day. The idea of tattoo's being a way for one to separate themselves from followers of Christ (or Nephi) MAY have been the case back then, but should NEVER be assumed to be the case today. Lead with love, and if there is other intent from the person (with tattoos), let them define it. Never assume you know someone's personal relationship with Christ. ❤️

I talked with my husband about this years ago. He pointed out the difference between kill, and murder. in times of war people are killing and killed. But murder, the plotting of taking a life to show or gain power, control est. Nephi killed Laban not murder

this says Aug 18, it's actually Sept 18
I love the explanation about praying to recognize and nurture spiritual gifts. I returned to this party of the video several times.
Thanks for sharing this with us i really like it also check : https://topfollowapks.net/
Oh man, what a great episode. My favorite part was this thought: -Love was always the law. Love is the work we are invited into, it was never meant to be a reward. We are often so focused on making ourselves lovable to God (earning His love) that we fail to join Him in loving others. We work so hard to keep the commandment He did not give that we fail miserably in keeping the commandment that He did give.
Everyone is a disciple of someone. Everyone has apostles that they follow and people that they trust. How grateful we are that the Apostles in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints are witnesses of and teach the resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Christ has faith in us just like we have faith in him. We support him in times of need (like in the garden) and he supports us. When he was going through the hardest time of his life, it is likely that he relied on our faith in him to sustain him and remind him why he was doing something so difficult. Also, mistakes do not equal failure and do not disqualify us from discipleship. They are learning experiences and should be viewed as such as we work to do better and follow our Savior.
sacrifice isn't giving up anything, it's choosing to use something time, money, resources in a different way. a way that will transform us and make us whole, which makes us holy.
"let not your hearts be troubled" is a commandment that we frequently break. it means that we don't trust the Lord. - this was such a powerful insight that I'd never considered!
Loved this episode! Favorite parts: -How do I gain a testimony -Who/What are you converted to?

Thank you for this. Josh, you spoke to my soul. I've been retired with some mental health struggles since 2018 and the toll they take... the struggle is real. Thank you for giving hope. It's hard to hear, to see, in the depths of darkness that fill my days; but this, was a light. Thank you.
I appreciated this perspective from one of the hosts about repentance: "more about seeing your value - your infinite worth - and making choices to match that value."
Love your podcasts. I assume someone has told you that your file is corrupted. It repeats from the beginning 3 or 4 times at about 7 minute intervals. Then it finally finishes out.
