    Stand Forever" Ep. 2 | Reason Out, and Believe | Elder Lawrence E. Corbridge

    Some are hard-pressed to believe in the extraordinary or miraculous. While it is understandable that we may be challenged by the extraordinary, we shouldn’t be, because ordinary things are actually far more phenomenal. With this and the next episode, we begin at the end, with the conclusion of the entire series: to make clear our destination, believe and follow Christ to the end, and help others do the same. Today, the focus is simply “believe.” We’ll walk through the pattern of syllogisms, piecing together an important syllogism threaded throughout scripture, which I call “Reason Down.” If you understand Reason Down, not only will your faith be fortified, but you will know that with God, all things are possible, and nothing should be hard to believe. Please join me on this journey and stand forever.

    Intro to the Old Testament I Handmaidens, Harems and Heroines I Lynne Hilton Wilson

    https://scripturecentral.org/en/archive/books/book/handmaidens-harems-and-heroines-finding-their-messiah-in-the-old-testament 0:00 Title - Handmaidens, Harems and Heroines 2:15 OT broad overview 3:56 OT references to women 5:45 Joseph Smith Bible Translation 7:20 History of the Pearl of Great Price 10:48 Challenging King James Translation 12:18 Restored truth in the OT Join Lynne Hilton Wilson for an inspiring journey through the Old Testament, centered on Jesus Christ as the promised Messiah. For many, approaching the Old Testament can bring mixed emotions—eagerness, uncertainty, even apprehension. As one of the oldest collections of sacred writings in the world, its ancient cultures and stories can feel distant or unfamiliar. Yet within these pages are deeply recognizable human experiences and powerful gospel truths. In this video, Lynne Hilton Wilson helps viewers see how the lives of men and women from the Old Testament point us to Christ. Though their circumstances were different from ours, they knew family joy and conflict, faith and doubt, success and failure. Most importantly, they exercised faith, repented, made covenants, and held fast to the promise of a Savior. As we learn how God moved in their lives, we begin to see how He moves in ours. This episode invites you to rediscover the Old Testament not as a distant or intimidating book, but as a living witness of Jesus Christ, echoing the psalmist’s testimony: “Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.” *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/ ____________________________________________ *The opinions expressed may represent the views of the individual creators or guests alone, and do not necessarily represent official positions of Scripture Central or of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. *This channel may make use of copyrighted material, the use of which has not always been specifically authorized by the copyright owner.
