    "Stand Forever" Ep. 28 | The Truth—Primary and Secondary Questions | Elder Lawrence E. Corbridge

    How can you know the truth? How do you close the gap between your beliefs and the truth? How do you avoid deception? There are primary questions, and there are secondary questions. The primary truths and questions are the most important. Everything else is subordinate. There are very few primary questions. Here are four of them:1. Is there a God who is our Father?2. Is Jesus Christ the Son of God, the Savior of the World?3. Was (Is) Joseph Smith a prophet? 4. Is the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints the kingdom of God on the earth? The secondary questions are unending. They include questions about Church history, plural marriage, people of African descent and the priesthood, women and the priesthood, and so forth. In a world of uncertainty, you can be certain about the answers to the primary questions not as a matter of faith but knowledge grounded in experience, study, reason and revelation, and if you are settled, you can chart your course without wavering like a “wave of the sea driven with the wind” or “tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine and the sleight of men.”

    Psalms: most Quoted Book in Scripture I Handmaidens, Harems, Heroines I Lynne Wilson

    In this episode of Handmaidens, Harems & Heroines, Dr. Lynne Hilton Wilson begins an inspiring journey through Psalms 1–48, exploring the beauty, poetry, and profound faith found in the Bible's greatest collection of sacred songs. The Book of Psalms contains 150 ancient Hebrew poems, prayers, and hymns that have comforted, strengthened, and inspired believers for thousands of years. More than a hymnbook, the Psalms give voice to the full range of human emotion—from sorrow and fear to gratitude, hope, and joyful praise—while continually pointing readers toward God's sovereignty, mercy, and unwavering faithfulness.Lynne examines the historical setting of these beloved psalms, the artistry of Hebrew poetry, and the voices behind many of these sacred compositions, including David and other inspired authors. She also highlights the women who appear within the Psalms and the feminine imagery used to teach profound truths about God's covenant relationship with His children. Through these poetic masterpieces, viewers will discover timeless lessons about prayer, worship, repentance, trust, and finding peace in every season of life.This episode also explores why the Psalms held such a central place in the ministry of Jesus Christ. Of all the books in the Old Testament, Jesus quoted or referred to the Psalms more than any other, drawing upon their powerful prophecies and testimony of the Messiah. As Lynne traces these connections, she reveals how the Psalms deepen our understanding of the Savior's mission and invite each of us to worship Him with greater faith and devotion.Join Dr. Lynne Hilton Wilson as she uncovers the rich spiritual treasures of Psalms 1–48, helping modern readers discover why these inspired songs have become one of the most cherished and enduring books of scripture.Please leave a comment below with your thoughts and insights regarding this video, and please consider subscribing to this channel and visiting our website for more content like this: https://scripturecentral.org/*Donate to Scripture Central:https://form-renderer-app.donorperfect.io/give/scripture-central/donations*Sign up for our email list:https://forms.aweber.com/form/87/2078810487.htm*Download our free scripture study tool, the ScripturePlus app: https://www.scriptureplus.org/

    "Stand Forever" Ep. 27 | The Truth—The Truth Shall Make You Free | Elder Lawrence E. Corbridge

    People at times criticize the Church, claiming it unreasonably restricts lifestyle and free choice. This point of view, while understandable, is truth turned upside-down. There is no freedom without choice and there is no choice without knowledge. Agency is expanded, not restricted by knowledge of truth. The greater the knowledge, the broader the agency and the greater the freedom. One cannot, for example, choose an eternal family, to be sealed to one’s spouse and children without the knowledge of sealing ordinances, priesthood, and the Restoration. One cannot choose to live the law of chastity without understanding the law and the consequences of obedience and disobedience. Many people do not understand and, therefore, they are not free to choose. The Lord reveals knowledge, line upon line, precept upon precept gently expanding agency commensurate with one’s capacity to understand and obey. Only by gaining knowledge are people “placed in a state to act according to their wills.” Otherwise, there is no decision to be made, no choice, no agency, no freedom—only the bondage of ignorance.

    Job: A Perfect Man is Made to Suffer I Handmaidens, Harems, Heroines I Lynne Wilson

    Lynne's Handouts: https://scripturecentral.org/archive/books/book-chapter/job-1?searchId=a8dd520af9cccb105ecead9705857c1e2d90a7fcec95388137b247b4cc8521c8-en-v=fadf3b9 In this episode of Handmaidens, Harems & Heroines, Dr. Lynne Hilton Wilson explores the often-overlooked women of the book of Job, revealing powerful lessons about family, faith, loss, and God's abundant blessings. While the book is best known for Job's unwavering faith through immense suffering, Lynne highlights the important role of Job's daughters and what their story teaches about women's value in the Old Testament. Before Job's trials, his three daughters regularly joined their seven brothers in joyful family feasts, demonstrating a close-knit family where the daughters were fully included in family life. Their happiness was tragically cut short when a great wind destroyed the eldest brother's house, claiming the lives of all ten children in one heartbreaking moment. Lynne discusses how this devastating loss deepens our understanding of Job's grief and steadfast trust in God despite unimaginable sorrow. The episode also focuses on Job's remarkable restoration. After the Lord blessed Job once again, he became the father of three daughters—Jemima, Kezia, and Keren-happuch—whose beauty was renowned throughout the land. More significantly, Job granted his daughters an inheritance alongside their brothers, a rare and extraordinary act in the ancient biblical world. Lynne examines how this unusual decision reflects Job's righteousness, integrity, and generosity, while illustrating the abundant blessings God poured out upon him in the latter part of his life. Join Dr. Lynne Hilton Wilson as she uncovers the rich historical, cultural, and spiritual insights surrounding the women of Job. Discover how these faithful daughters illuminate themes of covenant family, equality before God, hope after tragedy, and the Lord's power to heal, restore, and bless those who remain faithful through life's greatest trials.

    "Stand Forever" Ep. 26 | The Truth—Endure to the End Part II | Elder Lawrence E. Corbridge

    When someone leaves the Church, especially when many leave, people wonder, “What do they know that I don’t?”  A better question to ask is “What do I know that they don’t?”  Some claim Church culture is driving people away, that members feel unseen, disconnected, empty, unheard, unnourished, and unfulfilled by their involvement, and the solution they say is a transformation to a more open, inclusive, transparent, loving, and tolerant culture wherein more people can comfortably gather. The ultimate question is not: “Do I fit in, feel loved, accepted, and comfortable?” The ultimate question is: “Is the Church true?” None of this is to say we should stand idly by as people walk out the door with broken and lonely hearts thinking, “there is no place for me here.” But belief trumps doubt.   If you view the church from the institutional perspective, then the arguments for leaving make sense. If you view it from the kingdom of God perspective, they fall apart.   From the institutional point of view, reason would suggest leaving or stepping back if, as an institution, it does not meet your criteria, your expectations, and your judgment of what the Church should be.  But if you see the Church as the kingdom of God on earth with sole authority to administer the ordinances of salvation to God’s children on both sides of the veil, endow them with power to engage in His work and thereby bring them back to Him, then you will stay come what may.
