Come Follow Scripture - Moroni 7-9
Moroni 7-9 - Moroni teaches us messages that are for our day. He speaks about Faith, Hope, and Charity and how to discern truth from error in chapter 7, and then shares two letters from his father, Mormon in chapters 8 and 9. In chapter 9 Mormon mentions the abominations that are among the Nephites, and some might wonder why he shares these things. All of the information in these chapters are shared because these things are going on in our day; don't kid yourself.

    Jim…really enjoyed this one. We are a little behind. I have a question about the temple part. So, is the initiatory the ”first anointing?”

    • @ComeFollowScripture
      @ComeFollowScripture 2 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Yes, we are anointed "preparatory" to becoming a "king and a queen unto the most high God, to rule and reign in the house of Israel forever." We are told that we are "anointed only symbolically". Those are the words in the anointing and this is something we can ACTUALLY receive in the future, that is the SECOND anointing, when we actually receive this great blessing. Then we have the fullness of the Melchizedek priesthood, as mentioned in D&C 124:28. In the endowment, this is what we prepare for by putting on our temple robes BEFORE we enter the Terrestrial world.

    The last three books of the Book of Mormon were especially written for our time. As I've read and studied them it dawned on me that one of the most important messages in these last three books is that even though we are surrounded by evil, we can still live righteously. Ether, Mormon, and Moroni were all examples of living as we should while Satan prevails and people apostatize left and right. It gives us hope.

    • @ComeFollowScripture
      @ComeFollowScripture 10 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Yes, Syd, you are right. The whole Book of Mormon is directed to us, but especially the last three books, since the Nephites are now destroyed, and Moroni has no other reason to put this stuff in there than to speak to people "in some future day" (Moroni 1:4). If we can't find themes that relate to us in the last 3 books, I don't know what to say.

    On a serious note, I was leaving a grocery store one night as a large group of people walked in. They brought an unclean spirit in with them and the feeling was so strong that I almost ran out of the store. Later, as I pondered this, the Holy Ghost brought to my mind that I needed to remember what this felt like because I would need to identify this feeling at a later date and maybe need to act upon it. It was such a strange feeling that the very powerful evil spirit was just moving along with them.

      Yes, there is a lot here, and unfortunately, we don't really teach what Alma was teaching in the Come Follow Me lesson, in my opinion. Instead of teaching that breaking the law of chastity is an abomination, like Alma and Paul taught, we teach about looking at pornography. I do believe that pornography can lead to the breaking of the law of chastity, that is not what Alma was teaching. If we have an honest discussion about the law of chastity and added in the proclamation on the family, I think we could learn a lot.

    Lisa - thanks for your comment. I made a comment in my SS class today about the mighty change, and our Sunday school teacher shut me right down. The way the lesson was organized in Come Follow Me was not following the scriptures at all, in my opinion.

  • @lisaream1092
    @lisaream1092 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Hey Jim… thanks for the commentary. I wanted to just add that I think that what we’re hearing from some of the other leaders and podcasts is just what you mentioned. That it is by little changes that we can become prepared for that mighty change. Just as we can be changed from grace to grace… line upon line. So, I don’t think what they are teaching is false doctrine, they are just not coming to the final event of having that mighty change. Just as you said that not everyone will have an angel appear to them… that would be rare but that the experience can come in many ways and we must prepare ourselves spiritually each day for that event. 😊

    • @ComeFollowScripture
      @ComeFollowScripture 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Keep in mind that "line upon line", as used in the scriptures, always refers to gaining knowledge/revelation and not a change of our heart. That scripture is often misused to try and prove it is a very slow process. Going from grace TO grace as outlined in section 93 is exactly the point! You receive grace FOR grace from the things that you do, and the subsequent blessings, and then you go from grace TO grace which is done by God. That is how we get to a fullness, not by doing it ourselves, but depending on God for the grace that leads to the fullness.

    When I was young, I always remember hearing people say, "Get off your Rameumptom!" This goes to the pride of the Zoramites and how it led them astray. Maybe in the coming chapters it will go more into the pride of the people and how it takes them away from Christ. Good lesson

    • @ComeFollowScripture
      @ComeFollowScripture 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      We all have great need of repentance! Note in our reading for next week, Alma 23-29, that the Lamanites have many sins, but once they receive the gospel from Ammon and seek God's forgiveness, it says: "taken away the guilt from our hearts through the merits of his Son." Make sure you read about all their sins and see how even the most wicked can be cleansed and purified through the atonement of Christ. Read Alma 24:7-10. Through the baptism of fire and the holy ghost we can receive the remission of our sins and be cleansed.

    We know what the ordinance of baptism by water is. But you talk about an ordinance that happens when you are baptized by fire and the Holy Ghost. What is that ordinance? I thought ordinances were performed by man through the power of the priesthood.

    • @ComeFollowScripture
      @ComeFollowScripture 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Baptism by water has an ordinance, and a covenant. Baptism by fire has an ordinance and a covenant. Even having your calling election made sure has an ordinance and a covenant. Read Mosiah 26:20, in our reading this week to see where Alma the elder has his calling and election made sure, and a covenant is mentioned. The terms of a covenant are always set by God, then we are allowed to decide if we want to enter into the covenant. We enter into the covenant by an ordinance; that is the only way. In the case of the people of King Benjamin, he says, "...now, because of the covenant you have made...", then in verse 8 he says, "...all you that have entered into the covenant..." (Mosiah 5:6-8). We know that these people are already baptized, so that is NOT the covenant. The ONLY way to enter into a covenant is through an ordinance. Ordinances can be performed between God and man as needed and when men are ready to make the covenants and willing.
