0:00 Dedication of the Kirtland Temple. History of temple building in the Latter-days.
8:22 What is the pattern for using God’s name in the past and present? Cross reference Deuteronomy 12:5 and 1 Kings 8:17 with D&C 109: 1,2,4,5,9,17,18,19,22,26,31. The name of Jesus Christ is equated with power.
19:18 Sacrifice brings forth the blessings of heaven. The sacrifice of the early Saints invited significant blessings. Historical details are given about the dedication of the Kirtland Temple on March 27, 1836.
26:49 D&C 109 - The dedicatory prayer of the Kirtland Temple begins with “Thanks be to thy name, O Lord God of Israel”. What is a solemn assembly?
30:36 Verses 7-72. Patterns of discipleship are revealed in the dedicatory prayer. A pattern for what we should do with our own homes, our own lives, and our own souls, a pattern for how to seek learning, and a pattern for prayer.
36:45 When a word or phrase is repeated three times in ancient writings, it creates a superlative. See the repetition in verse 78, “O hear, O hear, O hear us, O Lord.” The Hosanna shout at the dedication of our temples is another example of a phrase repeated three times.
41:59 “The Spirit of God Like a Fire is Burning”, written by W.W. Phelps, premiered at the Kirtland Temple Dedication. Many pentecostal experiences have been recorded in connection with the Kirtland temple dedication.
49:05 D&C 109 - In the closing verses, Joseph prays for their petitions to be answered, for this house to be accepted, for this church to put upon it His name, and for the anointed ones to be clothed with salvation. One week later, April 3, 1836, on Easter Sunday (also the Passover) Elijah appeared in the Kirtland Temple.
57:25 D&C 110 - Jesus Christ appears in the Kirtland temple along with Moses, Elijah, and Elias who committed their keys and dispensations. What is an Elias? The same beings were present on the Mount of Transfiguration.
1:12:48 Conclusion. “Look to the temple of the Lord as the great symbol of your membership.” (President Howard W. Hunter). In the temple, we will find the blessings recorded in D&C 109, “And let these thine anointed ones, be clothed with salvation, and thy saints shout along for joy, Amen. And amen.”

Please never apologize for taking too long😊 I wish you brethren would take 2 hours! I have no one to talk (with or to) gospel with.... I hunger for your teachings and inspiration and the spiritual influence I feel from these discussions...please take 2 or 3 hours
I love Tyler and Taylor too! Listen to them every week along with all the other BOMC teachers since I don't have anyone to discuss gospel principles in my home anymore as well. One other great RUclips teacher is Jared Halverson on UNSHAKEN. I don't know if Taylor and Jared are related but they are both awesome teachers! You might enjoy his channel as well.
My family and I have been watching these programs every Sunday for two years now and have learned so much! We really appreciate all that you are giving us and hope you will continue through all of the scriptures if at all possible. Having these insights make a big difference in understanding what we really NEED to know.
Loved what he said about the temples !
You don’t have to be perfect in order to enter the temple ! You just have to be willing to become like the savior !
Heavenly Father loves you for the daughter/son of god you are !
Never forget your worth 😊
Back when I was a teenager, at least 30 years before I became a member of the Church, I somehow knew the first time I saw the SLC Tempe that it was somehow not just a big magnificent building.!
Your lesson was so wonderful for this section. You share the exact information that I wanted to hear. Thank you for your time in making these lessons available to all of us.
Another wonderful lesson and loved Ken's excitement for the gospel 🤗
My favorite part of the Boise Idaho Temple dedicatory prayer:
We thank Thee that Thou did reveal Thy priesthood, even the sacred sealing power, so that in this temple and all Thy other holy houses, Thy faithful Saints may be endowed with power from on high and may enter into everlasting covenants.
Father, we seek to be like Thee. We seek to pattern our lives after the life of Thy Son. We desire righteousness for ourselves and our children and our children's children. We plead with Thee to make us worthy to inherit the fulness of those blessings found only in Thy holy temples-even those blessings which grow out of a continuation of the family unit forever.
Sad part is .. that you stop !
How glorious to have these lessons ~ Taylor & Tyler ~ and your guest teachers.
Truly glorious !
Another wonderful, Spirit fuelled lesson, thank you all. I cry every time you say "Know that you are loved", because i feel His love in so many ways. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
What greater compliment could there be than, "You are growing up to look just like Jesus and to sound just like Jesus".
The Spirit of God like a fire is burning... Certainly was with you gentlemen today. Thankyou so much for sharing your knowledge insights and faith and testimony. I must admit l couldn't get from these verses what you have shared today if l just read it on my own. I have had some precious spiritual moments in the House of The Lord. Such a wonderful peace there that soothes heals and edifies the soul. So grateful for them. God bless you and all your loved ones and in your work 😃
I felt prompted to comment before falling asleep for the gratitude I have for this lesson. All 3 of you did excellent. thank you sirs
I felt the "timing" of this lesson...was PERFECT...prior to General Conference. I was seeking how I might prepare myself better and this lesson just opened up heaven's gate...to things I will be pondering over...THANK YOU SO MUCH! I absolutely LOVED what I learned!
Truly cam chance man 's Heart... Full of Hope and Families can be together Forever
This is brilliant, I love the different perspective on the Lords name and the welding/sealing. Awesome 💚
Thank you brother Griffin for the explanation @ 36:55 of "threepeats" in scripture & prayers like the Hosannah Shout. Very insightful!
Thanks to all of you!❤️🇨🇦
How grateful I am for being blessed to be taught by your wonderful men. I have learned so much with each lesson! I enjoyed the Book Of Mormon and now the Doctrine And Covenants. Thank you so much. I feel the Spirit so strong in my home during the time we spend together
Wow! Imagine indeed what they experienced & what we can become. Each week i learn so much and feel so blessed. Thank you again.
Totally blown away by this beautiful presentation. Wow, you think you know enough about something, until more study comes along. The next time I go to the temple, I am going to approach it in a reverent manner . I have always been respectful of the temple and the temple grounds, but after watching this, and completing the readings, I have a newfound appreciation for the Lord's holy house. The saints who experienced these heavenly interactions were very lucky ❤️
Enjoyed hearing Ken Alford's insights. Thanks for bringing him to us.
These amazing classes uplift me when I need it most. My family has seen a difference toward goodness in the last 6 months I have been listening to you weekly. Thank you so so much!
Thanks so much for the explanatory nature of this lesson. The enthusiasm of all concerned is a joy to watch.
I learned so much from this lesson today. Thank you imparting your wonderful knowledge and testimonies.
Wow!!! this is truly inspiring and motivating topic, I am feeling the spirit promptings as the teachers explain in detail about D&C 109-110. I am totally moved and inspire to be better so that one day I can be worthy to see Angels, promptings, in tune with the spirit.
That was such a fantastic lesson. Thank you so much
Remarkable lesson! Thank you so much! I learned so much about the temple!
So good. Love all the symbolism of Christ in the temple.
Thanks Bros for allowing to be part of your lesson today, Thanks for me to grow daily and understand the temple and what it means 😊🙏
Please do tell Ken thank you for his testimony when sharing his thoughts & experiences. I felt for him what he talked about his sixpennies cufflinks. So sweet. I was born in the 70's but I do remember a half penny which was worth less than a penny but I was able to buy sweets with several half pennies. Thank you to Tyler and Taylor for your wonderful lesson today.
Thank you very much for this lesson. I could feel the spirit very strong at the end. Love you also. Linda from Oregon
Thank you Brothers for this awesome lesson. I enjoyed all your lesson videos. I visited the Kirkland temple and had the opportunity to sing the spirit of God in the Kirkland Temple. Thank you for this lesson.
A Wonderul Enthusiastic Lesson ....Thank you !!!!
All I can say is, "Whew!" And then thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
It was a really great lesson. So fun to have all the extra stories and side information
This was an awesome presentation and an awesome gift of knowledge.
Thank you gentlemen for teaching and sharing your knowledge with us all. You all truly amazing and very helpful for me to learned and appreciates more of what they went through for us these later days. It's truly amazing and very grateful. You have enlighten my mind and my knowledge about the Doctrine and Covenant. I deeply appreciates you all for teaching.
A wonderful lesson on these two sections. This has really helped to teach my children more explicitly during our Come Follow Sessions at home. Great work brethren!
I learned so much, thank you. This is one of my favorites for sure!
I love to listen and learn from Taylor and Tyler. You brethren are outstanding and bless the lives of thousands and thousands of your brothers and sisters. Thank you sincerely and kindly!
Amazing lesson. Again.
Like in ancient times, the LORD is willing to come down from His glorious dwelling above, to be among us, imperfect mortals, in His Holy Temples.
One of the best! thank you!
Great lesson. I never get tired of watching and learning from these videos . Thank you all for thee spiritual experiences every week.
Thank you for such an inspiring video.
You are fantastic, thank you. I felt in heaven. Wonderful to recall the comparison with the Mount of Transfiguration where the same heavenly messengers gathered with our Savior. I like the temple and the fine spirit inside. During my difficult periods I found comfort there and during my strong years I found great light and love. Yes, He loves us. Greetings from Belgium
WOW! Thank you ALL for making these uplifting and edifying videos EVERY WEEK! So grateful for your incredible team and support system "behind the scenes" that make this magic happen.
Explaining plainly and with Specificity and in a pointed manner. Coupled with testimony of our Holy Prophets and with the Spirit brings, it all, alive. To me.
God is the way 🙏😇
Absolutely wonderful! We too, have stood there in the Kirkland Temple and felt that power from above…unforgettable!
You three are awesome. One of the best presentations I have heard. Very moving and inspiring. But... I say that about all of your discussions. You just get better each time!!! Thank the Lord and thank you!
Never apologize on the length! We’re all here drinking it up!
Thank you very much for this fantastic lesson! I loved it all. I liked Tyler's question about being part of the angels who attended the dedication of the Kirtland temple. I was thinking the same... Same thing with the angelic choir at the birth of Christ. I love to think that I might have been there. I hope it was the case.
I love the type of the plan of salvation. Abraham's family didn't just go down to Egypt, but he started in Ur, which I understand has the same root as urim...meaning light. Abraham came from light before his descendants live through the type of God's plan. So powerful!
This was extra special! Thank you all so very much! Ken, you are also an amazing teacher with a magnificent voice and testimony!
Thank you for the wonderful lesson from D&C 109 & 110. This is the best year of studying The D&C I have ever had. I love The D&C.
I have been an active member of The Church all of my 70 +years and I love Come Follow Me lessons and Book of Mormon Central Lessons. I feel so blessed to have learned what I have, it has answered so many questions. I wish it had been time for these lessons in my youth, my parents raised us before the time of President Benson and the know your religion classes and the emphasis on reading The Book of Mormon.
How blessed we are today understand better the tender mercies of The Lord - how I wish my parents could have known and in braced the knowledge and understanding of The Gospel being poured out to us at this time. Knowing of what they and we went through is really why this blessed time of learning means so very much to me. I suppose then I must instead of morning - rejoice and thank The Lord for His wonderful Blessings and I do.
In The Sacred Name of Jesus Christ Amen.
Yay for the Gospel of Jesus Christ! I love that this was said!
I am so glad the Temples are opening again.
I’m never disappointed in these lessons you bring! Thank you for uplifting us!!
Thank You!
Wonderful lesson. Thank you, Brother Alford, for sharing that beautiful story about your cuff links and the temple seatings! It deeply touched my heart!
Thank you!
Estoy aprendiendo inglés por medio de english connect. Todavía no entiendo mucho pero me siento muy bien al escucharlos
Brethren, today was powerful.
Thanks for Teaching with the Spirit of God like a FIRE IS BURNING, our Soul feel the Spirit of God right here everyone Teaching 🙏 Thanks so much n God bless you alllll forever ♥ 🙏 Eternally Amen 🙏. 🙏
💛This puts Psalm 20 into very beautiful and highly accurate context.
Wow! Thank you ❤ fully filled with the Spirit and understand ❤
❤Reminds me of how ancient princes were named for the castles in which they were born like Henry Bolingbrook.
They were known by the name of their stronghold.
Again Brethren this teaching of yours was a fest to my spirit. I can' be thankful enough to you. I fill more prepared to teach my Sunday School class after I listen to you. Blessings from NY
This lesson has been such an eye opener upon the willingness to sacrifice and the blessings that come from being willing to do so. I have a six year old who doesn’t like giving up anything but this perspective through this lesson has helped me discover a better way to teach our special son!
What a wonderful and insightful lesson. Thank-you all three so much!
Wonderful! Tyler, Taylor and KEN are Master teachers.
I am so grateful for you all! This lesson was one of the best!!
It is so interesting that Shem means name and that it was substituted at times for the name of the Lord. There are some who believe that Melchizedek was Shem. It is fascinating to consider that we use the name of Melchizedek, ( which means King of Righteousness--who was the King of Salem--which means peace so he was also the King of Peace) as a substitute for the name of Christ when we refer to the higher priesthood.
This episode also invites me to ponder on why some ordinances are done solely in the name of Jesus, but others are done on the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. There was much to feast on and digest today. Thank you!
How I loved this teachings! Awesome, I loved every minute of it! Thank you all so much for your time and effort, and sharing your knowledge of the gospel!🌞💖🌷
Thank you so much for that beautiful lesson! We are anxiously waiting for our Taylorsville Temple and now I will pay very close attention to the dedicatory prayer when it will be given. Thank you for opening our eyes. To the importance of it. We love you too.
Wow what a great discussion , you are so powerful in your words to shared these sections ! Yeah for the Restored gospel of Jesus Christ and for all people restored it under the direction of Him in the past snd today 🤩. I love you , you really help me to fortify my testimony
Wow- One of their best. But then I say that every week.
Wow, one of the best, thank you!
Thank you.
What an amazing lesson! Thank you Taylor, Tyler and your guest for everything you shared about the Kirtland Temple. This lesson had special meaning for me because we will soon have our own temple dedicated in Pocatello, Idaho.
Keep up the marvelous lessons! We are blessed to know you!
Greetings from Phoenix. I have just been released as an ordinance worker, having served for over nine years in two temples (Mesa and Gilbert). I learned great respect for ordinances while I served, but will have even more reverence for them as I go back as a patron. Thank you for pointing out some lesser known and even hidden meanings in the scriptures regarding temples.
My birth year is 1959 too! Love your sixpence cufflinks! 😂 👍💕
How to choose only one concept in this. Power comes by the name of Jesus. Sacrifice brings forth the blessings of heaven. I watched Elder Ballard’s talk on sacrifice. This year and study has reinforced my faith so much. Thank you for your lessons. I love it all! “A religion that does not require the sacrifice of all earthly things….., “. I have been looking for that reference.
Thank you wonderful teachers.thanks for reminding that we.need not be perfect but willing 😙
Interesting this comes out when they just announced a restructuring of the Provo temple.
It is a wonderful i loved

Thanks for this video,

Comment below on how Temples have blessed your life! :)
Many times when I share with a non-member friend that I'm going to the Temple, I so want to say something more than it's location. (The Portland Temple). After discussion about "the name," I would really like to say something like, the temple of the Most High God; or Holiness to the Lord. Or even The Temple of Jesus Christ Maybe some day. Just a thought.
Predicting 50 new temples announced in the upcoming General Conference!
That was a "superlative" presentation!
Thank you so much for sharing the original verse from "The Spirit of God" and the accounts of angelic singing. I noticed in section 109:79 that the same wording from the refrain of the hymn is used in the prayer. Which came first? I know the prayer was given by revelation to the prophet, I believe the night before the dedication. If the hymn was sung at the dedication it must have been written at least a few days before so the choir could practice. I know they were both given by revelation, but was curious to know which came first.
Such a powerful verse at 59:18 it gave me shivers! Also where can I find the link to the meaning of the letters on the pulpits?
Here is one source that explains the initials on the Kirtland Temple pulpits: rsc.byu.edu/kirtland-ohio-guide-family-history-historical-sources/appendix-kirtland-temple-pulpits
I love Book of Mormon Central and all it offers me as I strive to know and understand the gospel. I have one question about the statement in the heading of Section 109 where it says the prayer was received by revelation but it seemed like it was written by Joseph and a team of other church authorities? Can you give me a better understanding of how the dedicatory prayer came to be?
I did the math and I could be wrong but if I’m right the next time Easter and Passover coincide is April 2 2051 :) we are told we won’t know the day or the hour of the second coming so I’m assuming it won’t be that day because of that ;) but if history repeats itself … I expect something amazing to still occur that day
I have thought for a long time that there might be more to the commandment "thou shalt not take the Lord's name in vain". I feel that it means so much more after understanding more about the significance of his name.
Technically, Passover began April 2nd at sundown and continued until sundown April 3rd. Passover cannot start on sundown Easter-ever, because of how our calendar operates compared to Hebrew calendars. This is as close as they can come.
Thank you very much
I love love love your program. I have learned so much from you. Thank you for the time you give to me personally. We pray for you and thank heavenly father for your program.
at 30:28 you mention that the promise of seeing the savior in solemn assemblies is fulfilled hundreds of times. Can you please give some examples?
what is the link to know what the letters on the sections in the Kirkland temple mean?
