    346 Priesthood of the Holy Order of God: Mormonism priesthood p2

    Send us Fan Mail Video Podcast here Part 2 on Priesthood.  The Priesthood of the Holy Order of God.  The very word priesthood carries much baggage in mormon/restoration culture.  It is almost impossible to discuss the subject without carrying in our understandings of offices such as elder, high priest, bishop, 70, patriarch, lesser and higher priesthood, communicating with the church of the firstborn, keys to the ministry of angels, etc.   We have ideas of a hierarchical structure with different "offices" holding different keys, not available to the basic member, but given under "authority" with hands placed on the heads of men.  We even have a structure laid out telling who can "preside" over meetings based on priesthood office and structure in a peking order so to speak based on more knowledge and possession of "the spirit" in relation to what office is held.  "If an elder is present a priest can't preside over worship or a service, if a deacon is present he can preside but not if a teacher or priest is present, reserving the position to the "highest office".   As if the office gives more access to God, based on position ,and potential to possess a higher degree of the spirit.  This leads to a misunderstanding of who God is and what He has desired and called each true follower to.   It is very difficult but important to return to the Word of God to dismantle incorrect teachings given post 1830 by Joseph Smith that are not in harmony with the bible and the Book of Mormon .    It is difficult to see through the traditions and false teachings of men to understand the clear intention and desire of our creator in being co-laborers with him.   Stewards over this creation and adhere to the truth He has given.   We often settle for a lesser way, often the way that comes from the hearts of men or even the adversary but not from God.   In this series we return to what God has laid out in scripture prior to Joseph Smith  and 1830.    If man later contradicts this Word previously given, by taking away or adding to Christ's gospel,  we once again fall into a lesser way, rejecting the potential and perfect plan our Creator has laid out.  And we suffer for it.

    344 Salvation taught in the Book of Mormon and Doctrine and Covenants. They can't co-exist.

    Send us Fan Mail Video Podcast here: Part 2 in our series reclaiming the Book of Mormon  gospel, a series looking at conflicting doctrine within the restoration movement including RLDS, LDS, Community of christ and other off shoots of the church formed by Joseph Smith.   We stress the gospel contained in the Book of Mormon  as a great gift and when men add to this doctrine we need to reject it.  We continue the topic of salvation and how it was changed in the doctrine and covenants to conflict with Christ's message in the Book of Mormon .   No prison house, no glories, no levels of salvation but complete surrender and transformation by Christ required.   Restored Gospel  - Scripture Search and Study Resources  Contact us: restoredgospelpodcast@gmail.com Music by Michael Barrett

    341 To do or to become? Enduring with Christ p2

    Send us Fan Mail Video podcast here Special guest Dene presents what the Lord has placed on his heart about enduring with Christ as part of our covenant walk.   In part two we discuss the Holy order of God, and what the difference is in "doing" the gospel versus becoming a transformed creature.  Why Must We Endure? Because baptism does not remove the flesh. It begins a lifelong journey of learning to yield the flesh to the Holy Ghost until Christ is fully formed in us. The Holy Ghost is not the finish line. He is given to lead us as the walk begins. purchase RCE Book of Mormon https://bomf.org/shop/  Restored Gospel  - Scripture Search and Study Resources  Contact us: restoredgospelpodcast@gmail.com Music by Michael Barrett

    339 Hansen/Stucky p2 What Hansen could have said about who Jesus is, using the Book of Mormon

    Send us Fan Mail Video podcast here: In his recent interview, Jacob Hansen never once quotes from or references the Book of Mormon. It’s no wonder—doing so would have forced him to confront the clear differences between what the Book of Mormon actually teaches and what the modern LDS Church teaches today. Instead of relying on the Book of Mormon, he turns to later teachings from Joseph Smith and other church traditions that came after the book was published. This pattern is common among the LDS Church, the RLDS/Community of Christ, and many other Mormon offshoots: they often set aside their original book of scripture in favor of later developments. In this episode, we look at what the Book of Mormon actually says about who Jesus is. We believe the Book of Mormon is the word of God. Its message is centered on Jesus Christ. Far from contradicting the Bible, it beautifully complements and clarifies it. The Book of Mormon powerfully reinforces the core doctrines of mercy, justice, repentance, salvation, and eternal life so they cannot be misunderstood. Above all, it testifies of the atonement of Jesus Christ. It presents Jesus as God Himself who took on flesh, came to earth, and died for our sins. It is a sacred record of the descendants of Joseph—specifically the tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh—preserved for our day. The Bible was originally written in Hebrew and Greek before being translated into English. Because of this, many different English versions exist—each the result of careful work by scholars, linguists, and translators. In contrast, the Book of Mormon was translated only once, by the gift and power of God, using divinely prepared instruments. The Lord Himself guided the process, removing human interpretation and choosing words that precisely convey the meaning He wants us to understand. This is an extraordinary gift that helps us clearly know what we need for our salvation and for building a personal relationship with our Creator. purchase RCE Book of Mormon  https://bomf.org/shop/  Restored Gospel  - Scripture Search and Study Resources  Contact us: restoredgospelpodcast@gmail.com Music by Michael Barrett
