I'm not a LDS-member, but i have decided to take part in the Come, Follow Me study this year because i feel the Church has some interesting ideas, despite some, i admit, strange doctrines from the perspective of someone who grew up in a catholic household The interesting part to me is that when i decided to take part in the study program, i thought "All right, i'm going to try this experiment. If by the end of the year i feel the Book of Mormon is true, then i will continue my research. Because if this book is true, then i will have to accept everything else as true, no matter how strange some ideas may sound" And after that i decided to read a random verse from the Book of Mormon before starting to study it for real, and the verse i found was Alma 32:33, which said the same thing i had just thought, but with another words, almost as if it was an answer to my thoughts "And now, behold, because ye have tried the experiment, and planted the seed, and it swelleth and sprouteth, and beginneth to grow, ye must needs know that the seed is good."
Underline every time you see the name of Christ. It will help you see that it is truly another witness of Christ. Always pray before you study and take a few moments to note what you have learned. I wish for you to feel the love and goodness of the Savior as you study. We want you to know the truth.
Welcome! Your life will be blessed because of your sincere desire to know if The Book of Mormon is true. With the sincere desire in your heart, the Lord, thru the Holy Ghost, will grant/reveal to you a testimony of the truthfulness of this book, of His gospel, and of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Days Saints.
I grew up Catholic, went to Catholic school, and my whole family is Catholic. You really need to find out for yourself if you can live the laws and accept the ordinances of the Gospel of Jesus Christ as taught by HIS CHURCH, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I converted over 20 years ago. My parents and most of my family were not happy about my choice at that time, basically, I think because they just did not understand. As you study more, hopefully, you will come to the understanding that this really IS the true church of Jesus Christ. I know the upbringing I had actually led me to where I chose to be now. I understand so much more as I attend the Temple. When you reach that point and beyond, you will see how simple the Gospel really is. No more mysteries to wait for when I die, as was mostly the answer I got from Catholics. But be warned: (I took this from The Chosen) Jesus does expect a lot from those who truly follow HIM. The rewards of the Celestial Kingdom far outweigh everything else. Your life will be changed and you will be blessed beyond your expectations, here on Earth, but more so, after you cross through the veil into Eternity. That is my goal. I am praying that you continue your search with an open mind and heart. The Church of Jesus Christ is the best place to be!
When I was a kid at 8 years old, I wasn’t interested in reading books. However, I praised my scripture teacher who taught the class each chapter vividly by telling stories with her emotions. As a kid, I did not remember everything I read but I could remember what my teacher told me. She was an excellent story teller. I became interested in Jesus and the Bible because of the stories she told each class. Even u this age now, I still love to listen to stories.
Thank you! You truly were the answer to my prayers to really understand the dream. I had a basketball game I wanted to watch but choose to listen to you and I was truly fed! Thank you for sharing your special insights and spirits! You do make a difference!
Welcome to the new listeners and watchers , you are in for a treat with these wonderful lessons. Old or not, you will learn a lot from these insightful broadcasts given to us to help us learn more about the Book of Mormon along with this years lessons. I Hope you enjoy the weekly (Repeated but great) Lessons.
18:01 I hate to say it, but it is why we are here. Faith in good times is sweet. Faith in troubling and even painful days is spiritually profound to the point of sublime. I have never seen Heavenly Father's face but I felt him looking at me during a particularly desperate moment when I begged him for a tender mercy. As sure as you are reading these words, He answered me with a peace I can never describe adequately, and that tender mercy was granted. It is a daily reminder to me how much He loves little ol' me.
Thank you for the reminder that life is hard but we can trust the Lord 🙏 I appreciate the insights you bring to the Gospel truths. It's amazing how stories I've read countless times can still bring insightful lessons 😊 Thank you for your videos and testimony.
Thank you for this lovely lesson reminding me that I’m going to use “nevertheless” this new year of 2024. I missed your usual “Know that God loves you” at the end of the podcast. It’s like receiving a hug from God.
Everytime I pray, I receive his hug. And Everytime I read the scriptures, I receive many hugs. And listening to these beautiful lessons, more hugs. He promises us that when we do these things, he will be with us, the holy ghost is with us. A tender mercy each and every day. That's why he's asked us to pray and read the scriptures. I hope you know you're loved. ❤️📖
Thank you for bringing these valuable lessons back. I am relearning and learning more this time. I've been with you since the beginning. Thank you. I am also following your new endeavors.
Welcome! You will not regret it. No matter how long you’ve been studying the Book of Mormon, you will still learn more about the teachings and doctrines in this book, from Tyler and Taylor, they’re great teachers!
God bless you for your Inspired and beautiful teaching of these beautiful principals. I witness that these things are true. Let us ve pacient in our affliction so that God can mold us Into his image.
I am so enjoying learning the meaning of the names and why they were given throughout the Book of Mormon. It adds so much to our understanding. Thank you.
Thank you for your most inspiring lesson the great faith Lehi and his family were obedient not knowing what they would have to go through in their journey in the wilderness being obedient and having faith and trusting in the Lord .tender mercies .
So grateful for both your testimonies.i always feel of your love for Heavenly Father & our Savior Jesus Christ & wanting to share us your insights as well.. But your time to study & uplight me so much & I have learnt & gained a lot more love for my Lord & Redeemer & thank HIM for HIS tender mercies on me.
I am going to miss your insight Tyler. Your insight helped me share yalls breakdown with others. I will be sure to watch you in your new series. Thank you both for your insights as i have grown so much in my understanding of things you helped me understand
T& T Brothers, INSPIRATIONAL and UPLIFTING are two words to describe 1 Nephi 1-5 this week. My favorite principle was the Faith and Faithfulness are ALWAYS rewarded!! This certainly applied to Lehi's family who made a great sacrifice to leave behind wealth, land and ALL that they held precious. In the Lord's economy, whenever we give up something or go without, we find ourselves in EVENTUAL possession of more or greater. Lehi and his family will eventually gain a greater weight of glory and a multiplicity of blessings. So is the case with us in our day as we are asked to make sacrifices be it monetary etc. Our greater weight of glory is a Celestial Home!!!! Love our two transitional words to separate ideas and thoughts (Cause n Effect) Therefore and Wherefore !!!!
This might be ...greedy...but I would love to see this series redone with Taylor and Tyler teaching together. It is very good in this format, but synergistically even better when they work in tandem. :)
I also grew up in a catholic household and I believe that you will find these teachings in lighting and interesting! Ask all the questions you have as we search the scriptures! Welcome.
It would be really great if these were re-added to the feed on Apple Podcasts so they were easier to find. I've always listened to the podcast version on my commute, but so far this year, none of the Book of Mormon CFM Insights episodes have shown up in the feed. I've tried to go back and find the original 2020 episodes, but it's kind of a hassle. Thanks.
My family lived in the middle east for years and because of that we have many Islamic friends. My parents wish they had written down a conversation they had with one particular Muslim friend from Saudi after they had given him a copy of the Book of Mormon. This man was really well read. He opened it and he was shocked. He said several of the names had meaning in a really obscure dialect. From what my parents remember Lehi meant something like White beard, and I think Nephi meant something about a leader??? I'm less certain about that one, I might have to talk to my parents again. He also talked about how amazing it was from a cultural standpoint to read many other things that aligned with arab culture.
Fantastic lesson brethren. I can just picture how upset Laman and Lemuel were when all of their precious stuff was stolen by Laban. They probably had very high hopes of returning to Jerusalem and having money. Interesting that the guy who coveted the costly goods and stole it never got to enjoy it
Nephi killing Laban is reason enough to dismiss the BoM. Don't take my word for your. Take the word of Pres Nelson. " How can we have freedom of religion if we are not free to compare honestly, to choose wisely, and to worship according to the dictates of our own conscience?12 While searching for the truth, we must be free to change our mind-even to change our religion-in response to new information and inspiration." Be brave and set aside group think and motivated reasoning. Read the story. Think about the story. Is it good. Is it rational. Maybe you are ok with it. Maybe you are not. I meet very few mormons that are comfortable enough in their own belief that they can acknowledge the difficulty of the story and recognize some reject it.
did the printer have authority to change the bom? why can’t people including in our times just leave original works original? men always messes things up.
Please can you make understand the correct date and lesson on that week as before it's confusing lesson 1_5 and again 1_6 and 1_8 in first Nephi it's little confusing.
The videos i saw last week said they were from three years ago. Thats what confused me. Glad we now have a new version. I learn more from these fine brothers than ever before.
You have an interesting turn on their names. We must remember that Emma Smith described Joseph's translating where he spelled the names. Nephi can be pronounced using all the letters or the way English has it but it's not really an English name. The "I" on the end of words is possessive meaning "My Beauty or best." A good name for a favored son. Sarai of course has a link to Sarah of Abraham. And of course Laman and Lemuel come from the words "AMAN" (Faith) and "EMUEL" (Hope) so it's as if Lehi (a name meaning "A Little Thing" as in the Old Testament) is giving his sons commandments "L" (go to or towards). Some have suggested to me that the "L" means no or not. Who would name their children "infidel" or "Hopeless"? That's rather silly. As for Sam, well, in ancient Arabic and Egyptian especially, it means Chap or Young one. Finally, for the place where Ishmael was buried, the Arabic word for it is used in other places such as Capernaum or Kafr Nahum meaning the village of Morning. One of my Arabic instructors' parents where Bedouins and are buried close to that same location in Saudi Arabia where Ishmael is buried. The big question would be...how did Lehi pass my Mecca seeing tradition has it that Abraham built it and it is "The Mother of All Settlements" in the area?
Great life lessons it's the lack of authority in the book of Mormon. Calling it scripture is a dis service to the destination of your very eternal soul
Please don’t make it so profound such as cause and effect relationship which was taught in high school. Please use simple approach. The simpler the better for people with busy life to remember.

I love the lesson, the discussion I learn many many spiritual things in life through the book of Mormons stories
When I was a kid at 8 years old, I wasn’t interested in reading books. However, I praised my scripture teacher who taught the class each chapter vividly by telling stories with her emotions. As a kid, I did not remember everything I read but I could remember what my teacher told me. She was an excellent story teller.

God bless you for your Inspired and beautiful teaching of these beautiful principals. I witness that these things are true. Let us ve pacient in our affliction so that God can mold us Into his image.
Thank you so much for the insights of the scriptures. Looking forward to your insights on the Book of Mormon.
I am so enjoying learning the meaning of the names and why they were given throughout the Book of Mormon. It adds so much to our understanding. Thank you.
Awesome lesson!! Love the word play!!❤❤
Thank you for all your work and for helping me understand many things I couldn't understand with my own reading.
Thank you for your most inspiring lesson the great faith Lehi and his family were obedient not knowing what they would have to go through in their journey in the wilderness being obedient and having faith and trusting in the Lord .tender mercies .
Thanks for all the time and effort you guys have put in to making these videos. They are very inspiring.
So grateful for both your testimonies.i always feel of your love for Heavenly Father & our Savior Jesus Christ & wanting to share us your insights as well..
But your time to study & uplight me so much & I have learnt & gained a lot more love for my Lord & Redeemer & thank HIM for HIS tender mercies on me.
Love these videos...Thank you so much! #FaithtoAct
I have a Book of Mormon like this , my grandfathers
I am going to miss your insight Tyler. Your insight helped me share yalls breakdown with others. I will be sure to watch you in your new series. Thank you both for your insights as i have grown so much in my understanding of things you helped me understand
Where is Tyler now? Not in this series anymore? Will Taylor have another cohost?
They have separate shorter videos this year. But we still can hear from both of them.
T& T Brothers, INSPIRATIONAL and UPLIFTING are two words to describe 1 Nephi 1-5 this week. My favorite principle was the Faith and Faithfulness are ALWAYS rewarded!!

So is the case with us in our day as we are asked to make sacrifices be it monetary etc. Our greater weight of glory is a Celestial Home!!!! Love our two transitional words to separate ideas and thoughts (Cause n Effect) Therefore and Wherefore !!!!
Thanks for the revamp. Four years ago COVID ruined everything.
Thank you for the beautiful program I start listen middle of last year and I'm excited to learn more this year watch from New Zealand
Their journey through the wilderness also teaches them the skills they will need to survive in the new world
Wow, the “nevertheless” part at 16 minutes in was so powerful and profound that I found my eyes getting misty.
18:00 i like it, i like what i felt
This might be ...greedy...but I would love to see this series redone with Taylor and Tyler teaching together. It is very good in this format, but synergistically even better when they work in tandem. :)
I’ve often wondered if Nephi and his brothers’ experiences of going back for the brass plates and for Ishmael’s family were a form of Zions camp.
I also grew up in a catholic household and I believe that you will find these teachings in lighting and interesting! Ask all the questions you have as we search the scriptures! Welcome.

punctuation can make a meaningful difference and regretfully the bom was already then from the beginning tainted by someone of no authority
did the printer have authority to change the bom? why can’t people including in our times just leave original works original? men always messes things up.
🙏😇
❤❤❤❤
20:40 Nephi means to search with a fine tooth comb in Hebrew
Please can you make understand the correct date and lesson on that week as before it's confusing lesson 1_5 and again 1_6 and 1_8 in first Nephi it's little confusing.
These are erodes from last year so they don’t line up perfectly. We hope you understand. :)
😊
Gee I think I also like the book with no breaks?
Is this an old episode?
hi I think is active now / brand new
Did you not catch the intro? Your question is addressed right at the start of the video.
The videos i saw last week said they were from three years ago. Thats what confused me. Glad we now have a new version. I learn more from these fine brothers than ever before.
now i have a whole different perspective on 1 Nephi. Thank you
@@stellaellstella2915so is this new or from three years ago? Because Taylor has his own you tube and a new partner now .

.I def😢itely think that the man in the white robe was an imposter.
From my understanding Israelit women did not have access to the scriptures except through there husbands?
Great life lessons it's the lack of authority in the book of Mormon. Calling it scripture is a dis service to the destination of your very eternal soul
Why are you two separated?
