  • Today we are facing an onslaught of criticism against Western culture, civilization, and morality. We are watching the foundations being distorted and torn out from under us. As we go through the seemingly insignificant books of Enos through Words of Mormon, we are going to find answers to this conflict and what we can do about it!

    I am so impressed by Hannas depth of knowledge. She and her father have made me more aware of so many ideas than I could have ever been aware of on my own.

    The man who does not read has no advantage over the man who cannot read.
    ― Mark Twain
    We have the scriptures, but if we do not read them then we will be no better then those who do not have the scriptures.

      Hannah: Exactly! If anything we'll be worse off because we'll be accountable for what we could have known, as well as those we could have helped.

    19:04 I've been trying to spread this so bad! There is an obvious degeneration curve that is happening to humans. The only thing that has expanded life spans is modern medicine. And this was a short blip. Life expectancy has gone down in Western civilization for 2 years.
    And we can't forget that we aren't increasing life expectancy by doubling the lifespan of third world countries. Science isn't making human life spans longer. We are just bringing up the average.

    "Demonize the white race" ... Wow, she said it! Thank you! 👏👏 So many Christians are afraid to mention this topic because of political correctness

    • @bobbyc.1111
      @bobbyc.1111 3 месяца назад

      This is what Indians and Hispanics , Blacks have went through the government demonizing them through the media and such and false news and what it can create is a self-fulfilling prophecy and an impression the world sees Caucaians or USA people. How much of that do you have towards other races. So we see it coming around is actually Caucasians creating it again. Its not Blacks or Polynesians...It is Caucasians they create this. People start treating a group that way and that group from treatments change like the brown eyed blue eyed experiment. So, Who owns the USA and claims they are in charge of the world Charles Schwab says they rule the world so now you know the puppet masters and all the people are following it. He is German.

    So nice to see the topic of racism finally put into a current day context from an LDS source. I hear many implied accusations of racism in the church, without acknowledging the current cultural narrative at the foundation of accusations of racism “today”.

    I was glad to hear you talk about Parthia & genetic engineering in the book of Jasher. I have told people for many years about these things but all I get is the deer in the headlights look from them so I gave up talking about that. Good work as always.

    19:19 I imagine that over time satan has improved his deceptions over time. This is the first time that I have heard of the prophecy that not even a grease spot would be left. 31:25 That paints quite a description. I guess that prophecy hasn't been fulfilled yet.

    Wow! Thank you. As an older generation, born in 1960 saint, I think of what I have witnessed in my years and I have many more to live, God willing. What will I see in the next 20, possible 30 years and what are your going to see as well? History has changed. It is painful to see how things are wrapping up such nice packages of systematic yet destructive changes. To have the younger generation, and especially your intelligent use of today's information availability, to put such a great presentation together. AMEN. I am anxiously awaiting part two! Keep it up! I am strengthened, encouraged and feel vindicated!

    This also goes along with "experts" saying that humans were originally polytheistic and then became monotheistic. It is actually the opposite. And so many things are credited to the Egyptians that were taught to them by Abraham.

    There are some Apocryphal records such as Joseph and Asenath, The Twelve Patriarchs & different gospels here on youtube. They are so interesting. I listen to them often & they frequently strengthen my testimony of the Restored Gospel. ❤❤

    One thing is correct: we DO have records of Enoch.

    I love this and I agree especially with the fall I am curious I've always interpreted the flood to be the crossover from the fall of Atlantis into Noah's ark so to speak, and the Nephi and lamanites to be the lumerians and Nephilim, which would actually match with this all that you speak on and I guess I'm wondering the timelines interpreted in the Book of Mormon today.
    Were they from Joseph Smith's record or translated later?

    Also they intermarried within the tribes...so much of tribal inheritance is passed patrilineally...on the mothers side would have mixed all of the tribes....inheritance of tribal traits would have varied by siblings rate of biological inheritance

    I’m a little confused by what you mean at 16:52 about blood. So Adam and Eve didn’t have blood in the Garden of Eden? Where do we find that? Is that something a Prophet has said or is it in the scriptures? From what you said, it sounds like blood is a symbol for sin and the Fall. I know we’re told not to eat or drink blood, is that why? Other than it being gross. What does that mean for blood transfusion? Sorry, this may be way outside the purview of this video, and I know I’ve gone a little sideways from the rest of the message. If you could just explain what you meant and point me to where you learned it from I would really appreciate it!

    • @JosephSmithFoundation
      @JosephSmithFoundation  2 месяца назад +1

      Hannah: That is such a great question! The teaching that Adam and Eve's bodies did not have blood comes from the Presidents of the Church, commenting on scripture. We have two articles on this in our "Science FAQ" resource which is one of, if not the, most comprehensive research compilations on everything the Presidents of the Church have taught on science, evolution, creation, the age of the earth, etc. I think you would really enjoy reading the following two:
      PRE-FALL CONDITIONS: Did the Fall introduce reproduction, blood, sin, pain and other mortal conditions? In addition to man, did the Fall affect plants, animals and the earth itself? josephsmithfoundation.org/faqs/science/06-pre-fall-conditions-did-the-fall-introduce-reproduction-blood-sin-pain-and-other-mortal-conditions-in-addition-to-man-did-the-fall-affect-plants-animals-and-the-earth-itself/
      DEATH BEFORE FALL: Was there death on earth prior to the Fall? Has the Church changed its position on this? josephsmithfoundation.org/faqs/science/05-death-before-fall-was-there-death-on-earth-prior-to-the-fall-has-the-church-changed-its-position-on-this/

    Judeo Christianity is an oxymoron. When hates the Christ the other loves the Christ it doesn’t make any sense.

    • @webwarrior1.038
      @webwarrior1.038 3 месяца назад +1

      Thank you, I'm glad someone pointed it out. Modern Judaism is NOT the same as Old Testament Hebrew/Israel religion. Judeo-Christian is a modern word made to bind modern Jews (often with political, but not religious as we understand it, Zionist interests) to American Evangelicals. Modern Judaism stems from the corrupted and apostate religion that was visible at the time of Lehi and even further at the time of Jesus.

    • @anonymouslife3777

      Exactly right. We should all point it out on every video until these people stop saying it.

      Isaiah 9: "8 The Lord sent a word into Jacob, and it hath lighted upon Israel. 9 And all the people shall know, even Ephraim and the inhabitant of Samaria, that say in the pride and stoutness of heart, 10 The bricks are fallen down, but we will build with hewn stones: the sycomores are cut down, but we will change them into cedars. 11 Therefore the Lord shall set up the adversaries of Rezin against him, and join his enemies together; 12 The Syrians before, and the Philistines behind; and they shall devour Israel with open mouth. *For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still*"
      While modern Judaism might not be the same as the faith of their (and our) fathers, they still rightfully believe in their divine heritage, as we should ours. It all stems from the same roots. I believe the Lord is in the process of strengthening the stock by grafting in the branches this day. Unlike the rest of Israel, the Jews are first gathered physically and then spiritually. The dedication of the Holy Land by Orson Hyde in 1841 and subsequent gathering of the Jews in that land must then be necessary steps for them to start believe in Christ. And there is plenty of evidence to suggest that's God's order for these things is working.
