Part 2 of a 3-part verse-by-verse study of Alma 30-31, which recounts the story of Korihor and Alma's mission to the Zoramites. Part 2 covers Alma's (and others') response to Korihor in Alma 30 and examines casting out doubt, burdens of proof, arguments for God's existence, personal testimony, and self-deception. Join Jared Halverson for your weekly Come Follow Me study of the Book of Mormon!

I’m a month behind but these past few discussions have sunk so deeply. The delayed timing to watch these couldn’t have been better. Viva la Unshaken youtube channel that is giving me extra life in 2020!

Superb summery of the great "debate" between belief and skepticism. This is the best hour I have spent on the tension between these (eternal) world views. Very well done.

Whao, every video opens my mind to things that were right in front of me but just couldn't piece together. I'm thankful for your knowledge and the time you are taking making these videos, you're truly advancing the Lords work. I can't express how thankful I am to God for using you as an instrument in His hands to enlighten minds and to soften hearts. Thanks again.

Starry heavens above me.....moral law within. Wonderful concept. Alma knew all of this, Will you deny all this? Alma grieved because of the hardness of Korihors heart. Satan wants to destroy. Wonderful lesson.

So true! We end up creating little echo chambers instead of doing our own thinking. No wonder we end up going down paths we never would have chosen for ourselves!

Superb. Thank you for providing me with a broadened, deepened and more nuanced understanding of our own and others epistemology. I love the parable of the Prodigal Son. Thank your for the compare and contrast with Korihor's final state and the concluding "thus we sees". This is the best 1 hour I have spent in the summary of the (eternal) tension between belief and skepticism. A very satisfying balance of the major players in our western cultural engagement in this ancient debate. The Otto quotes are new to me and excellent. The dynamic between true believers and true skeptics (of which Korihor was not), their struggles, worldviews, and interaction, is very helpful. These are great tools as we seek learning by study and also by faith.

Our family has found great strength through these videos. Our family had a marvelous and powerful discussion in our "Come Follow Me" lesson this week. We watched this video prior to our home Sacrament meeting and we found the power of the spirit was strong as we were able to tie in insights from this video with our lesson and everyone was awake and involved in the conversation. Thank you....Keep up the amazing and wonderful work!

Awesome job as usual ! Whewwww gives me chills about someone joining satan and him never forgiving that thought of fighting him in the war in heaven... that alone can make you never want to go near there! Lol
@Unshaken

Scary thought, no doubt! Definitely no loyalty on that side of things.

What a poignant thought - Satan never forgiving those who fought against him in the Spirit World. Your comments enlighten and stimulate my mind in favor of the Gospel.

I agree, I loved what Brother Halverson said " What, am I supposed to thank you? Who fought against me, in the war in heaven? I will never forgive you !" Powerful words to ponder. Alma 30:53 "And thus we see that the devil will not support his children at the last day, but doth speedily drag them down to hell."

Sometime could you discuss the details of payment of ministry in the Church? I think I get the construction workers and temple architects. Also, the assistance given to some missionaries and stipends to general authorities. Institute directors and seminary teachers, I don’t understand. I presume they are not paid from tithes but that is just my guess.

Br Halverson, In the story of Korihor I see the same person per say as Alma was when he was destroying the church. I don't understand why Alma did not share his story about what happened to him and that an angel warned him of his own destruction if he continued. Maybe there is discretion in who to share your story with, but it seemed it might have helped Korihor. It sure couldn't have hurt. Alma must have felt it would not help because he did not. We all seem to wonder who to share our conversion story with in hope that it will help others.
@Unshaken
@Unshaken 4 года назад
What a beautiful thought! I love picturing Alma as a Korihor who was able to turn things around. No wonder Alma didn't hesitate to call out Korihor--he probably related to him and knew just what he was doing. And you're right, perhaps he didn't share his conversion story because he saw that it wouldn't touch such a hardened heart. Thanks for sharing!
@fredeisele1895

It seems that Korihor is doing that of which Abinadi was accused.

Fascinating parallels (and perpendiculars!) between these figures. So many important connections to draw!

I've been asked that in order to know god who is divine we have to be divine ourselves. How do I answer?
@red-ender42
@red-ender42 4 года назад
Aren't we divine in being a child of God? That is our "divine nature". We are coming to know God as we learn how to become more like him. I am no expert, I just saw your question and these thoughts come to mind.

I have a difficult time with this in these modern times when the brethren make more money on living allowance even after they take off expenses, than my family (husband and wife both working with children to support) will ever make in a year. How can I explain that to my non-member friends? They claim that -that is paid clergy.
