It's better to die for your faith then change it out of fear. People claiming the LDS church isn't Christian just makes us strong so keep bashing and hating us it makes us stronger.

Thank you for that wonderful review. Church history really does matter! We always need to understand better.

Because he was a criminal

My ancestor, Amy Porter is buried at Winter Quarters cemetery. It's her headstone at the base of the grieving couple statue. We live mere miles from their former homes.

He was killed because he was lower than a snake

He was a conman and blackmailed and coerced 50 women to have sex with him w some bs marriage crap

You two are amazing. Thanks for all your scholarly work. I'm looking forward to listening to the rest of the content on your channel.

Thanks for producing another informative episode. I enjoyed hearing the story at the end. As a teen, I thought the practice of fasting once a month and donating the money that would have been spent on food to help the poor could be the way to solve many problems in the world. From a financial perspective, funds are raised on a regular basis. From a psychological perspective, fasting helps an individual have empathy for those who go without. As a young person, I wondered what kind of problems could be solved if everyone in the world did this?

You mean reformed church. There is only one insoluble, indivisible Church that Christ found 2000 years ago. He made the promise that the gates of hell would not prevail against it. He never spoke of a restored Mormon church that would be needed in the future. You are no different in that respect from the tens of thousands of reformed church’s that have spun off from Martin Luther’s Reformation

Thank you

As usual, a church apologist is lying to you, he says we don't know if Joseph Smith hit anybody or killed anybody when he fired his weapon at the people coming up the stairs. John Taylor was there and he said Joseph Smith hit three of the people, two of which later died and one of the other was wounded. So when they're telling a story and lie to you, what do you think about that? And John Taylor statements to this effect are in the history of the church and at the journal of discourses. And don't forget Joseph Smith was arrested for committing a crime when William Law One of his counselors published the nauvoo expositor that exposed his polygamist practices. Joseph Smith ordered the printing, press destroyed and thrown in the street. I'm Law was mad about his polygamy because Joseph Smith tried to put the moves on his wife, Smith had already married 11 women who already had husbands. So it's always a whitewashed history

My great, great grandfather was sent to jail for living polygamy. I wouldn’t be here without that practice.

Another great presentation and am looking forward to Episode 5. Thx for all of your research and bringing the Spirit with you in these presentations.

upon his death the ritual was complete. blood of the martyr sprouts the seeds. sacrificed upon an altar of the largest ambition

Excited for this. Thank you for uploading it. Love this podcast.

🤘🙂🤘

You knew in detail how many people consist of the mob. You knew every words the say, how many bullets hit them, and the specific area where the bullet hit them. You knew in detail how everything else went, except whether or not he killed anyone, as he fired back at the mob, that was very close to him. Truth is not difficult to know.

Why not ask why the mob was angry? It makes it sound like people just woke up and decided to hate Mormons all of a sudden. The Mormons had been in Navoo for years and their neighbors tolerated their religion and even sympathized with them after being run out of Missouri. The mob only wanted Joseph Smith because of how he was currently acting, and marrying multiple women and dismissing state law and installing himself as the highest authority.

You two are so knowledgeable; strong testimony; have an amazing way to teach! Wish I could take your classes and ask questions! Even the background music is invigorating and pleasant! Getting the good thinking book from the library. For sure!!!!!! Keep it up guys! 👏👏👏👏 We’re so blessed by the 2 of you!

I pray god will heal all mormons and they will understand how they have been deceived

This has been on my heart lately. I wasn’t able to finish this video, but in my reading tonight I turned to Acts Ch 4 and found this Acts 4:31-35 31 And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spake the word of God with boldness. 32 And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul: neither said any of them that ought of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common. 33 And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all. 34 Neither was there any among them that lacked: for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold, 35 And laid them down at the apostles' feet: and distribution was made unto every man according as he had need. What a testament to the mighty change the Holy Ghost can have on our hearts.

the prophet was doing some unholy things, but who can blame him? Who is free from sin throw the first stone. I love this church but I don't believe he died a martyr, he died for breaking the law and trying to escape the law. He was human. Polygamy was illegal. He ruffled too many tai fathers. The world desperately needed the restoration,

The thing I’d add to the question about current prophets and social issues (ends around 55:00) I agree that we have to have a relationship with God but we still need to practice religion within the bounds of the current leadership. Before the ban was removed even if well meaning, members couldn’t ordain someone to the priesthood of the church taught that they couldn’t receive the priesthood. We can’t extend our moral compass to official religious practices while we can be kind in our personal interactions with others where we disagree or have different beliefs.

I m so thankful for Joseph Smith and his brother Hyrum that I am bless with a strong testimony of the Book of Mormon and the true Gospel of Jesus Christ .

Can you see the disciples sneaking a gun into Jesus? What did He say about Peter's sword? Certainly Jesus would never fire a gun (or swing a sword) at His enemies. Joseph was no follower of Jesus. It is said of Joseph in Matthew 7:23.

How can I be a Mormon? 😮

Covenant path

Please stop deceiving people. The ONLY instrument of translation was the Urim and Thummim. The seer stone in a hat is a satanic lie. There were no sentences in the translation. The printer had to add punctuation. This is more proof that whole sentences did NOT appear on some silly seer stone.

I’m so grateful for the example of the prophet Joseph and his older brother Hyrum. Praise to the man who communed with Jehovah. Many criticize and mock these Martyrs but they lived great and died great. Fools mock, but they shall mourn.

I think his crazy multiple wives practice caused an upset.

It’s awful. Do you think having all those wives made other mad with such a practice?

City Creek Mall Is a “Moat” utilized by church authorities to push out & distance anyone who who makes the mormon church look bad. It’s a Nasty Combination of church & state using public money for private enterprise. SHAME ON YOU!

The D&C is not the word of The Lord. A group of mortal men, Blasphemed & folks like you, with all your learning- cannot discern fraud.

$32Billon consecrated tithe dollars invested secretly into “SHELL CORPORATIONS”. The church has agreed to pay $1 million and Ensign Peak will pay $4 million in penalties based on the violation. “Thinking has been done” so, keep paying tithing & don’t worry about it.

Why is the mask of hyrum covered over on the chin area.. is that a bullet entry point that is trying to be hidden from the public eye.. and is it true that the church no longer endorses the 2 eye witness accounts as true.. because they conflicting testimony

Is the Law of Consecration Active? Connor Boyack ruclips.net/video/I2ikqE7exdw/видео.htmlsi=eBoxR6v3iyhl1SFv

This group is involved in the most heinous crimes against humanity. So bad that it will get removed if i say it. YT is protecting the criminals taking advantage of the innocent parishioners. Wolves in Sheppard's clothing.

I love this series. You two are very compatible teachers and friends that make it successful. I wish I had such a friend.

Dallin Oaks said destroying the press was not legal and that Joseph was wrong in thinking he had judiciary power as the mayor of Nauvoo. However, Elder Oaks did say that the destruction of the publication (not the press) was justified since it incited violence in an inflammatory climate.

Love your humour but of course the info, well balanced and thank you from the Gold Coast Australia

Thank you!

Thank you!

👍 😊👍

He aprendido mucho con estos podcast, el evangelio es verdadero y tenemos que aprender de nuestra historia

It is hard to be convincing when leaders tell members we are in the 11th hour and you are buying Amazon warehouses rather than homeless shelters. The LDS church is Small and yet the are hiding how vast their stock, real estate, land, and business holdings really are. They are a real estate, business, and investment company masquerading as a church.

This video is so awesome. The clarity of the teaching and the various examples are super helpful. Thank you!

I am so grateful to you both (and your team). Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experiences ❤ you make scripture study more personal and practical way. Thank you.

Why is the background music so much louder than the guides' testimony? Which is more important?

First of all the Church still does the auditing report in General Conference. But second of all I cannot adequately tell you both how much I appreciate this program. Church History Matters. You make it so interesting. You must do hours of research on many if not all of your subjects. I watch a lot of podcasts as far as scripture study but I always add this one every week or even some of your older recording on different subjects. Please keep up this wonderful work about explaining the Lord's Church policies, histories, fallacies , etc to members and wonderful explanations to non-members. But no matter which category your explanations are clear and easily understood. I look forward to your podcast every week. Thank you for all your hard work and love of the Lord Jesus Christ that comes across so perfectly.

How did someone break the “new and everlasting covenant” that is referred to around 3:30 ish. How is something of God called “everlasting”covenant be broken or thwarted by mere mortals?
