If you are considering visiting the Smith home in Pa, DO NOT look for Harmony. If you do you will end up near Pittsburg. Look instead for Susquehanna depot Pa. Oakland township. There is also a Susquehanna city that is NOT where you want to go. There is a wonderful visitors center, the Hale home (reconstructed), Smith home (reconstructed) and the burial site of the Smith baby.
Really thoughtful and well done. You are both terrific. One constructive suggestion, Lynne, please let John finish his comment without talking over him.
THIS IS FANTASTIC. Two enthusiasts! I love the pictures too. Thank you. MERRY Christmas and a Happy NEW YEAR . I LOVE the Lord, our prophets and scriptures
I notice that happens in other videos/podcasts as well. Sometimes the host gets so excited they talk over the guest at times. Sister Hilton is passionate and excited to talk about the Book of Mormon. Which is awesome.
@@tinacarvalhoBodyandHealth for sure. I just noticed I had a spelling mistake in MY original post so when you said you had the same thought I was poking fun at myself for my own mistake. Your words were perfect. Hope you have a nice weekend and a Merry Christmas ❤️
Thanks so much for all your insights. It is always wonderful to start reading the Book of Mormon again, each time we learn more, it is an endless source of Knowledge and inspiration. Greetings from Santiago, CHILE.
This was absolutely amazing, these two people have a natural love for the scriptures and the Lord that just radiates as they converse about both of them. I really look forward to watching both of them this year. There was also a ton of information that illuminates these topics. I am hooked on listening to them!
Thank you. This is a great presentation! I have always enjoyed your videos but Brother Welch and your visuals adds more. Is he going to be joining you each week?
Thank you! I love the way you go back and forth sharing your insights, knowledge, witness, and enthusiasm! Brother Welch's legal and literary expertise gives so much depth of understanding. Again, Thank you!
bible says plainly, do NOT add to or take away, one jot or title, how in Gods name are you going to berlieve a man looked in his hat and come up with allthis?,,i pray, that God, opens your eyes and throw this false phrophecy out, and cleave ONLY to gods word
Thank you both for sharing your time and helping me to understand The Book of Mormon . I do so enjoy listening to both of you Thank you again and God Bless you both.
Very true. But the Lord has also provided evidences that support the reality of the book. I so very much admire the early saints who withstood the persecution and violence based on their spiritual testimony, as you say, with none of the scholarly support that we have today. I love the evidences but not because they teach me that it is true, but more in the vein of “See, I told you so”. Perhaps more importantly, the evidences can bolster the faith of those who believe but still are weak or uncertain. With time, the sure and certain conviction and conversion can come.
lynne here: you're of course absolutely right. the only real testimony comes from the spirit and the process outlined in Moroni. It is wonderful that God has given us such a gift as the Book of Mormon. There's nothing like it. It will bear up in matters of spirit, heart and mind! The ultimate evidence!
This was so inspiring for me. Yet, I have so many questions. Among other historical facts, it’s been shocking for me to learn about Joseph’s many other wives and left me not knowing how to feel about so many things I was taught growing up. They don’t make sense. I would so much appreciate help in gaining greater understanding.
At marker 24:57 in this video where Mosiah 28:9 is being referenced about an account of the Jaredites to be given, I believe Mosiah 28:19 is the reference to use. Hope this helps others. These videos are helpful and insightful. We will continue to watch and learn. Thank you!
“And this account shall be written hereafter; for behold, it is expedient that all people should know the things which are written in this account” (Mosiah 28:19).
Lynne was so disruptive with her interjections. Please just let John share and finish his thoughts. Her voice was distracting and alienating enough I wouldn't listen to an episode with her again.
PS: There is no such language as "reformed Egyptian". It's all a big lie. I'm so sorry, but that is the truth. Because of this, Christopher Nemelka is trying his best to start his own version of the "Sealed Portion" because they are all great and talented works of fiction. A marvellous work and a wonder indeed! Writing scripture for itching ears '
Wow! Everything was so amazing! I wish my mind could hold everything I have learned. I am with Mary Whitmer... if you can skip rocks you can chop some wood. Sometimes the people who prop up our bishops, stake presidents, general authorities have more work and even more responsibilities, so that the work can go on. it is alright to take a break or get visited by an angel to get yourself renewed. Giggle! Go Mary!
Jack & Lynne: what an incredible combination If you want to know ever more about how the Book of Mormon is translated, ancient record Lynne and Jack wil fill your mind and our heart.
My goodness! How wonderful! I love the insight between the two of you. And I’m thrilled that we have the Joseph Smith papers now with more insight than we have ever had in the past. How wonderful!
I am excited for this year to be the study of The Book Of Mormon. I need to read this book more frequently. It is a life changing text. God Bless us in our need.
I think you are ignoring s lot of historical facts here..he sat at home for years telling stories about these people before he translated the book according to his mother..isnt that interesting ??
Thank you for the glorious eye opening teachings that help us move to a new level of study of the Book of Mormon! I appreciate all the work and energy that you all put into these lessons so we can progress too!
Thank you for mentioning the book, "Opening The Heavens". I just bought it and I'm impressed with its contents and all the work done. I'm already enthralled reading it.

Wow! That is a huge help! Thank you! I was searching on the complete opposite end of the state!
It promises to be a great year of studying the scriptures!
Great intro! Wow! Can't wait for this whole year of study. Thank you for putting this all together!
Wow!! Just into it a few minutes and learned new information already! Thank you both.❤
This teaches us that God doesn't give people all the truth until they are ready to accept it because God wont be mocked
Please please let your guest speak.
Thank you so much for your comment! I totally agree!
I think the situation has improved greatly as the series progressed.
Outstanding presentation! I wished to have the opportunity to listen more from John Welch . Thank you!
John Welch is one of my all time favorite gospel scholars!!! Will he be joining every week???
yes. He and Lynne will be doing it all year
You know when you don’t want it to end that it has been inspiring. Thank you for this important introduction to the Book of Mormon.
Really thoughtful and well done. You are both terrific. One constructive suggestion, Lynne, please let John finish his comment without talking over him.
AMEN to this! She was so disruptive
THIS IS FANTASTIC. Two enthusiasts! I love the pictures too. Thank you. MERRY Christmas and a Happy NEW YEAR . I LOVE the Lord, our prophets and scriptures
Oh my word, I'm so excited for the book of mormon studies next year ❤
It would be wonderful if someone invited a guest to give them a real chance to speak.
I notice that happens in other videos/podcasts as well. Sometimes the host gets so excited they talk over the guest at times.
Sister Hilton is passionate and excited to talk about the Book of Mormon. Which is awesome.
We are so lucky to have two great scholars discuss this together; thank you for your wonderful insights into the miracle of the book of mormon.
This is amazing! I learned so much!
She adds color to his commentary. I know in my home my husband only gives the basic facts and I get to add the context.❤
You are so knowledgeable, and I love your enthusiasm sharing with us,, but Lynne, please stop interrupting and talking over your your guest.
Enjoyed this - excellent work!
One of my most favorite professors at BYU Law School. Love you Prof Welch.
Wonderful information but I wish only one person speaks at a time.
Hah! we'll figure it out. We'll do better! There's just so many exciting things to talk about...
The book of Mormon is main so much to me, it's has the right spirit protein to keep me healthy in the presence of our all Loving Heavenly Father.
Yay!!!!! I’m so excited that you both are going to be with us in 2024 to study the Book of Mormon! 🎉
I appreciate what Jack offers the lesson. It is a complimentary fit. Both of you are scholars worthy of this subject.
Lynn, you are interrupting him. 😏
Wiw two of ny favorite scripture scholars in one video! Looking forward to this next year from Scripture Central!
U said my words thank you
@@tinacarvalhoBodyandHealth hopefully you spelled them better lol 😆
@@102wingnut kindly and forgiving as one goes along please
@@tinacarvalhoBodyandHealth for sure. I just noticed I had a spelling mistake in MY original post so when you said you had the same thought I was poking fun at myself for my own mistake. Your words were perfect. Hope you have a nice weekend and a Merry Christmas ❤️

I've been a member all my life, 7 generations in all directions and this was almost all new information. WOW!! I'm sharing with everyone!!!
Thank you for consacrating your time to do these lectures. ❤
I am not the Tishbite except in my email address to honor the prophet I am named after. But still, I am Elijah.
☺
Love their enthusiasm! Such a great video 😇 thank you for putting this together 🙏🏾

GREAT JOB GUYS…..I’M SO EXCITED TO BE STUDYING THE BOOK OF MORMON AGAIN FOR THIS UP COMING YEAR.
I love this combination of presenters. I learned a lot.
Thank you. This is a great presentation! I have always enjoyed your videos but Brother Welch and your visuals adds more. Is he going to be joining you each week?
yes. we (lynne responding) will be doing it all year! some great stuff coming!
Thank you! I love the way you go back and forth sharing your insights, knowledge, witness, and enthusiasm! Brother Welch's legal and literary expertise gives so much depth of understanding. Again, Thank you!
I have been waiting for this! ♥️
So beautiful how Father has loving people to help many of us continue to delight in His Love. And its Joseph Smith Birthday celebration
Church of Jesus Christ, we talk of Christ.
Emma has been called the witness that didn't witness! She went with Joseph in the wagon to retrieve the plates!
Thank you so much for this wonderful video. The two of you are so easy to listen to and you open up the beauty and glorious purpose of these pages.

Thank you both for sharing your time and helping me to understand The Book of Mormon . I do so enjoy listening to both of you Thank you again and God Bless you both.
What a great way to begin our yearlong study of the Book of Mormon!!!
Joseph never said he used a hat, that’s all debunked
We are spoiled for choice with yt and podcasts. Excited about studying the BOM this year
I really hope Professor Welch talking about the pearl of great price!
I do not believe The Book of Mormon because of “evidence”. I believe it because of the power of the Holy Ghost which assurance is irrefutable.
Very true. But the Lord has also provided evidences that support the reality of the book. I so very much admire the early saints who withstood the persecution and violence based on their spiritual testimony, as you say, with none of the scholarly support that we have today.

Thank you for the presentation. Many great things. (But please cancel the music.)
Great, detailed information. Thank you
Three 3 Big Thumbs up!! Thank you.
Absolutely fascinating. Thank you.
Is this the new set up?
It is! 🎉📣🤗
😇🙏
❤❤❤
What is the source for all of the Mary Whitmore information? This is new information to me.
How did you find out that Joseph had to bring the right person to find the plates?
Great info!!! Thanks 🙏
This was so inspiring for me. Yet,
I have so many questions. Among other historical facts, it’s been shocking for me to learn about Joseph’s many other wives and left me not knowing how to feel about so many things I was taught growing up. They don’t make sense. I would so much appreciate help in gaining greater understanding.
Next year (2025) we will be studying Church History and the Doctrine and Covenants. That should at least provide resources.
The Book of Mormon is itself another witness or testament of Jesus Christ along with the Bible.
At marker 24:57 in this video where Mosiah 28:9 is being referenced about an account of the Jaredites to be given, I believe Mosiah 28:19 is the reference to use. Hope this helps others. These videos are helpful and insightful. We will continue to watch and learn. Thank you!

Please listen to a few more. It gets better.
So excited! 🎉

Thank you for your insights! And I LOVE Jack Welch’s contributions-he’s amazing!!
Thank you so much from Portugal ❤! A fantastic presentation. Lots of jewels here and much to ponder.
Jack & Lynne: what an incredible combination If you want to know ever more about how the Book of Mormon is translated, ancient record Lynne and Jack wil fill your mind and our heart.
My goodness! How wonderful! I love the insight between the two of you. And I’m thrilled that we have the Joseph Smith papers now with more insight than we have ever had in the past. How wonderful!
Where can I find more information about the 1830 lawsuit Brother Welch discusses?
How is the Entire Title Page being possibly misinterpreted these days… good things to ponder… Thank you!
I am excited for this year to be the study of The Book Of Mormon. I need to read this book more frequently. It is a life changing text. God Bless us in our need.
I thought the 116 pages were translated first, which is the known or thought of as the Book of Lehi. So, would that have happened before Mosiah?
Yes, Joseph translates 1 and 2 Nephi AFTER he has translated Ether and Moroni.
@JeannieWelch-wi7zs Seems that other things produced by Scripture Central doesn't indicate that. I will keep digging.
Me cuesta entender aún con subtítulos, pero es fascinante, inspirador.
Gracias hna hilton wilson y hno welch.
I hope that both of you continue this for our entire study of the Book of Mormon. Really good and natural interaction. Thank you.
I think you are ignoring s lot of historical facts here..he sat at home for years telling stories about these people before he translated the book according to his mother..isnt that interesting ??
I learned things i hadn't known! Excellent....thank you.
When was Joseph Smith testimony added and where did it come from?
Never has the introduction and Title page been more interesting!
Wonderful presentation. Thank you.
Thank you so much for this wonderful lesson!
Love it!
Fascinating conversation. Thank you.
Thank you so much for taking your time to do these
Thank you for the lovely video 📹 🖥 📱.

Thank you Sister Lynne Hilton Wilson as always!!!
Thanks to both of you. Wonderful missionaries.
Thank you for mentioning the book, "Opening The Heavens". I just bought it and I'm impressed with its contents and all the work done. I'm already enthralled reading it.
