Prof Harris is such an amazing speaker. I could listen to his stories on the untold history of the church for as long as he wants to talk about it. Love it.
You are attempting to spread false disinfo to try to be an apologist for the Church (by saying it came from Freemason Brigham Young). You omit that the Black "curse" is in the BoM that Joseph Smith"translated from Gold Plates. Also, all, and I mean everything (organization, priesthood, ancient history, ordinances & covenants) came from Freemasonry. Freemasonry bylaws, in the Indiana Monitor, states that Blacks cannot be a Freemason. But, the Globalists' British Monarchy (who delegated for the last 400 years plus) gave some Charters for Blacks in order to use Blacks in their Communist & NWO schemes. :.
Really interesting stuff, thank you! Since polygamy has been decriminalized, is there any chance the LDS Church will release ancestor records? On FamilySearch, there's just a bunch of lies and altered dates for my ancestors, although most of my family knows there was polygamy. We deserve the truth about our family.
People need to read the definition of a prophet there have been many prophets on this planet besides Joseph Smith. Emanuel swedenborg was a prophet . I'm very sure Joseph Smith knew him or studied his books.
5 minutes in and I am already hearing something that I have thought but haven't put enough context to myself. People DO NOT like hearing that there are other prophets. When they are out there wherever in the world, they obviously are not THE prophet. You can take a person from every religion or belief system and they can "testify" how the "spirit" led them to that particular group and how they "know" that is the correct way to live. LDS just cannot accept this idea. I remember 40 years ago saying that there needs to be a Pope on the earth bc not everyone is going to be Mormons and you would have thought I just admitted I danced with the devil.
How many days can a church with the name of the last days church? Meaning, at what point does the old age end, and the new age begin? This is the real dilemma of the church, that it has fulfilled it's purpose, and is not waiting for the next thing. Find out what that next thing is about: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-HKAotkil6Gs.htmlsi=CamtizOue7hSaN2o
I really like the video format. Thanks for being willing to do it. It's satisfying to see Brian's kick A haircut and (respectfully) LHP is a stone cold fox.
D&C 63 29 Wherefore, the land of Zion shall not be obtained but by purchase or by blood, otherwise there is none inheritance for you. 30 And if by purchase, behold you are blessed; 31 And if by blood, as you are forbidden to shed blood, lo, your enemies are upon you, and ye shall be scourged from city to city, and from synagogue to synagogue, and but few shall stand to receive an inheritance. My husband's great great grandfather Levi Jackman was with David Whitmer when they heard a mob had surrounded the Whitmer home. David led a group of armed men up to the home, it sounds like they snuck up on them. Someone yelled Mormons fall back and the shooting began. One of ours died and three members of the mob lay dead. Blood was shed and Zion was lost. It wasn't over some dumb name for the church.
Joseph's first rough draft of his first vision, 1832 A History of the life of Joseph Smith Jr. an account of his marvilous experience ... also an account of the rise of the church of Christ in the eve of time according as the Lord brough<t> forth and established by his hand ..... thirdly the reception of the holy Priesthood by the ministring of Aangels to adminster the letter of the Gospel-<-the Law and Commandments as they were given unto him-> and the ordinencs, This would be John the Baptist giving him the Arronic Priesthood ...forthly a confirmation and reception of the high Priesthood after the holy order of the son of the living God power and ordinence from on high to preach the Gospel in the administration and demonstration of the spirit the Kees of the Kingdom of God confered upon him" This would be the Melchizedek Priesthood. No we don't have a date but we know it happened.
@@boysrus61 Last week, 15 new temples. Prophets were given; 12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: Eph 4 Revelation does not have to be some big production. Each talk is a revelation, the different speakers prayerfully ask Heavenly Father what he wants them to say for the perfecting of the saints and it is revealed to them. You just have to have the ears to hear.
Thanks for having the courage to do more videos. Tremendously appreciated as one that hasn’t been able to make it out to Sunstone Symposium live…at least not yet anyway. I listen to a lot of podcasts and yours is in my top 3. Adding YT and hopefully some your own “truncated version of what we do in our podcast on tiktok”. ;) will come next full of intriguing clips and be like the best ever sample day at Costco for us to share samples of your amazing work with others. I think y’all are about to be way more popular and impactful. True thanks for putting in so much diligence and loving this all-mo space.
She is only in the left ear and he is only in the right ear??? How does that happen. I am going to try and keep listening or come back when I don’t have to wear headphones
I prefer RU-vid videos over podcasts. Imho. Just more familiar with navigating it, I get to see you 👀 and it allows me to surf other things while listening.
When young, I lived in mostly rural areas. It was tough to get to a good library to research stuff, so I had to take the word of books, news, teachers and religious Mormon and non-Mormon leaders. If not for the Internet, I probably would still be a Mormon. Today, there is still much the same problem with false information, but I can check sources much more easily to counteract the misinformation.
Fun to see the podcast playing with other formats! Absolutely interested in seeing video content from Sunstone. Just a general thought, whenever I see podcasts go to video format, I kinda hope to see the format utilized to its fullest, with still images and clips of content being discussed. Walk and talks can be interesting. This could be a fun way to combine you two's conversations with a bit of good old-fashioned photo album sharing, etc. Keep up the great work!
Great video. Audio request: Please balance future speakers when recording? He is talking in my right ear, she pops up in my left ear much louder and brighter, unexpectedly which feels like someone sneaking up and smacking me on the shoulder!
