Alma was a wicked man and when we recognize his wickedness the way he did we may begin to see the light that he felt.
Joseph’s Early Years
Do you remember those old animated videos of the Book of Mormon? The Video of Joseph depicts him as such a well minded child. A perfect angelic pick for a prophet… right? We may want to paint him that way but that is not the case. We may be upset by that but the honest truth is that no man is righteous and we should not paint anyone to be such. Joseph’s Early Years were full of temptations just as ours though his were different.
1 Corinthians 15: 1-11
I declare unto you the gospel… By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you… For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: And that he was seen… so we preach, and so ye believed.
The Dispensation of the Grace of God
To Paul was given the Dispensation of the Grace of God. The Dispensation of the Fulness of Times has been claimed to these Later-Days. Each has it’s meaning for the people of it’s time but that does not mean that the Grace of God has stopped for us in these days.
Laman and the Gospel
Laman and Nephi are the main characters to the start of the Book of Mormon. Much like how the old testament prepares the reader for the new testament. Understanding Laman and Nephi helps set up for the outcome of the book.
Paul’s Message
Have you ever noticed how much Paul sticks to the message of the gospel? He mentions it in every letter. Some he spends more time on than others but it is always there.
Jesus’ Message to Paul
Paul is told he will recieve more instruction in two of his accounts but the account to King Agrippa expounds on it. What is that Message?
Saul of Tarsus
Saul of Tarsus had a vision of Christ on the Road to Damascus. He retold his account more than once as Joseph and His accounts differed as Joseph’s did in what Christ said.
The Condition of Mankind
A reoccurring detail in each account is the wickedness of Mankind is shown. Lets take a closer look.
Why are they different?
In preparation for General Conference 2020 please join us in learning about the first vision.
