It is inspiring to note that I have read 3 Nephi 12:44 so many times in the Bible and it was when I read it in the Book of Mormon this week I realized that to pray for your oppressors/bad bosses, is a command. To keep a commandment versus to do a command. Now I realize how important it is not something to take lightly. I use to say I refuse to waste my prayers on them because they don't deserve it. 🇯🇲 🇯🇲
I loved watching your video. 100% examples of how to be a good teacher. Your voice, your tools, your real items or symbols to make the class understand the true meaning of the lesson. Please do more videos. You are the Best.
Wow!!! I was blown away as always with what you taught me in these chapters and cant wait to share them with others and most importantly live them better. You are HELPING ME TO EVOLVE to be what I WAS MEANT TO BE. I cant thank you enough for helping me understand the teachings of Jesus Christ and his gospel and his LOVE for all of us found in the book of Mormon. Thanks for sharing your gift and talents. This truly has blessed my life more than you will ever know. I was taught the German meaning of Love (LIEBE) by Elder Peterson more than 3 years ago as he visited our stake conference. I was at that time diagnosed with cancer and had stared treatment. You like many others exemplify LIEBE -- Lift, Inspire, Encourage, Bless, and above all else be an EXAMPLE. Sorry for the lengthy comment but felt impressed to share a little.
I really appreciate your message. Comments like yours keep me pushing forward in making these. I'm so grateful I get to teach so many each week what I love about the scriptures!
Great lesson I love the lifting up higher chart!! what a marvelous way Of Jesus to raise the bar, I love the way He raises us from the Telestial to the Celestial it's not always easy but if we keep trying we can with Him. Thank you for picture this up in a very clear way. And yes I laughed on the burglars 😂
I loved the comparison of the higher laws to the three degrees of glory. It really made them meaningful and more organized so that I could reach for them as in the rock climbing analogy. The Powerful Prayer Principles from the Lord’s Prayer were insightful and easy to understand. The whole lesson gave me food for thought! Thank you for this and all the previous lessons! They make a big difference in my scripture study.
Brother Ben, GREAT insights to this specific Scripture Block. I loved hearing about your experience here in Arizona teaching Seminary. I also taught here in Gilbert and like you, it was truly many cherished memories. The Beatitudes (Beautiful Attitudes) in 3 Nephi 12 compared to Matt 5 was a great experience comparing the two. I really enjoyed your slides on "Lifting me Higher" and what that looked like to the Nephites at Bountiful and to us. The Salt, Light & City comparison sure hits home given TODAY's current environment. Thank you my friend !!!!
This has been so enlightening! You have helped me understand some principles of the Gospel of Jesus Christ that has weighed heavy on my heart. I hope you don't mind, but I shared this episode on my fb page, inviting friends and family to listen if they are not subscribed to your wonderful podcast. I don't teach in a classroom setting, but I feel though a widow alone, I have opportunities, most days, to teach! You teach me and I share that teaching with others! Thank you, again.
Thanks Ben. You help make things clearer to me. A part of our testimony is through our experiences and we can share those when we give a talk or when prompted by the Spirit and also in our journals for our prosperity to read .
We sooo enjoy what you teach. We were neighbors, in Nauvoo, with your Aunt Sandy and Uncle Mike. Ther are wonderful people. They are very proud of you. We learn soo much. I "share " your lessons with others. Please keep Teacing With Power
Hi Brother Wilcox. Where in Arizona did you and your family get to live? We live your inspiration of teaching these scriptures. My family enjoys watching these....my 40 year old son just told me his favorite scripture was “Let your light so shine...”
Obrigada!! Como vc fez missão no Brasil , vamos praticar seu português! Adoro seus ensinamentos e visão das escrituras ! Já pensou em disponibilizar seus videos com legendas em português para o povo do Brasil ? Seria uma benção para o povo brasileiro !
In my scouting days we were taught that salt is important to allow the water we drink to absorb into our bodies. As disciples of Christ and the salt of the earth is it possible we help others absorb the “Living water of Jesus Christ “ ?
Near the end of the video I do a quick summary of 3 Nephi 15. I'm covering chapter 16 in my video that will be released next week because its message is very similar to that of 3 Nephi 20-21. Look for more info on my next video.
I love your beautiful teachings
To finally understand the B attitudes is such a huge thing for me....thank you.

Thank you for an amazing lesson!
Ben, you do such a great job. I can't wait to share some of your insights with my students here in Rexburg. I wish you the best.
Thanks so much! So glad you are finding them helpful in the classroom.

Wonderful! I appreciate you spreading the word. The scriptures are absolutely amazing, aren't they!
Thank you so much!
Thanks Ben. You help make things clearer to me. A part of our testimony is through our experiences and we can share those when we give a talk or when prompted by the Spirit and also in our journals for our prosperity to read .
AMAZING insights--thank you for sharing and bringing more light into our homes (without temples available--they are the next most sacred place to be)
Very true. I hope everyone is taking advantage of this extra time with their families.
Wonderful lesson ❤️
Just brilliant, thank you for the light you have shone on the scriptures this week. So very instructive. Thank you so much.
You are so welcome!
We sooo enjoy what you teach. We were neighbors, in Nauvoo, with your Aunt Sandy and Uncle Mike. Ther are wonderful people. They are very proud of you. We learn soo much. I "share " your lessons with others. Please keep Teacing With Power
Cool! Aunt Sandy and Uncle Mike are the SALT OF THE EARTH for sure. Thank you for the encouragement!
Thank you 💞
Thank you😍👏
I kept laughing about the anxiety on buglars😅😛
That was good..!!
@38:00 Asking relates to prayer. Seek relates to pondering and studying. Knock, as an action, relates to the ordinances.
Great point!
I love how you talked about being perfect is really about being complete. You brought out so many profound insights throughout this video.
Hi Brother Wilcox. Where in Arizona did you and your family get to live?
We live your inspiration of teaching these scriptures. My family enjoys watching these....my 40 year old son just told me his favorite scripture was “Let your light so shine...”
Love your inspirations...I meant
We lived in Queen Creek for about 10 years. Loved it down there! Such amazing people in Arizona
Salt also helps us digest, warms us in winter and causes change in foods so they can give us what we need.
Great application ideas. Thank you!
Salt doesn't eat salt and light doesn't need light. Each of these is made to bless the lives of others.
True!
Obrigada!! Como vc fez missão no Brasil , vamos praticar seu português! Adoro seus ensinamentos e visão das escrituras ! Já pensou em disponibilizar seus videos com legendas em português para o povo do Brasil ? Seria uma benção para o povo brasileiro !
De nada! Eu gostaria de produzir os videos em portugues mas nao tenho o tempo para fazer isso sozinho. Obrigada por seu fortaleza!
thank you
Where can I find your Power Point lessons please?
In my scouting days we were taught that salt is important to allow the water we drink to absorb into our bodies. As disciples of Christ and the salt of the earth is it possible we help others absorb the “Living water of Jesus Christ “ ?
Good insight. I'll have to remember that application. Thanks!
Where is 3 Nephi 15 and 16??
Near the end of the video I do a quick summary of 3 Nephi 15. I'm covering chapter 16 in my video that will be released next week because its message is very similar to that of 3 Nephi 20-21. Look for more info on my next video.
