Cwic Show- Recent LDS Temple Changes Mar 20, 2021

Show notes

The LDS Church just announced that the Salt Lake Temple and the Manti Temple would no longer continue live sessions after their remodeling. In addition, the murals from the Salt Lake Temple are being removed. LDS Temples house core doctrines, widsom, ordinances, and rituals for members of the church. This episode, while supporting the changes, talks about what we are losing and missing in our temple experiences. Primarily, participation and drama!

Show notes

"Knights at a Roundtable" In the context of the Sacrament, a covenant, communal meal, the Lord invites those with "keys" to sit at the table with him and share in the meal. Ultimately, we find out that we all have a seat at the table.

We discuss the differences between Elias and Elijah, as well as the dispensations and priesthood order as a mirror form of the creation, building towards being "one".

Jordan Peterson, Jonathan Pageau- Their Conversation on Christianity & Secularism Mar 11, 2021

Show notes

Jordan Peterson is Stuck on Faith

My thoughts on their conversation and Jordan Peterson's position between Secularism and Christianity. Peterson wants to believe, but there are obstacles. Pageau offers good advice, but it's not enough. Peterson needs to learn what faith really is. Peterson adopts Carl Jung's mythological approach of truths in the story of Christ but has difficulty bringing them together with the actual event of Christ's sacrifice.

"Emma Hale Smith" Some members of the church have been harsh with Emma Smith. We cover just a few of the trials that this good woman went through. We also go over the coupling of "pride" and "temptation" as well as the principle of Common Consent.

"The Melchizedek Priesthood"

The Melchizedek Priesthood following the Aaronic Priesthood. It is likely that Joseph Smith and Oliver Cowdery were visited by Peter, James, and John within two weeks of the visit of John the Baptist.

Martin Harris is commanded to underwrite the printing of the Book of Mormon by mortgaging his farm. Though a believer, he is constantly looking for assurance where his faith deadends.

'Witnesses & Circles'

Not all of us witness God, plates, visions, or miracles, but that is the plan. Like concentric circles, we sit out from the center, receiving the Word and witnesses in order to grow, exercise faith, develop hope and give charity. The three witnesses did not see God the Father and Jesus Christ. The Eight Witnesses did not see Moroni or the other Nephite objects. But we can pull from their witness.

Cwic Show- Bradley Kramer, "How The Book of Mormon Counters Anti-Semitism" Feb 10, 2021

Show notes

"The Book of Mormon Counters Any Anti-Semitism In The NewTestament"

Is the New Testament anti-Semitic? If so, was it written that way or just interpreted that way? Bradley Kramer, Author of Gathered In One: How The Book of Mormon Counters Anti-Semitism In The New Testament, explains how the New Testament may have been written with a specific bias against the Jews in favor of the Gentiles. We talk about the role of Christianity in the Holocaust, why the LDS Church is not a part of the tradition of Jewish persecution under Christian rule, and how he thinks a traditional interpretation of the New Testament has played a role in that persecution.

'The Aaronic Priesthood in the Latter Days'

John the Baptist, the icon of the Aaronic Priesthood, visits Joseph Smith and Oliver Cowdery and confers upon them the keys of the lower, preparatory priesthood. The priesthood of baptism. Baptism is a representation of the Doctrine of Christ, choosing to enter mortality, take on adversity and the burdens of others, then on to victory through Christ and the resurrection. It is part of the Lower Law that precedes the Higher Law.
