Stand Forever" Ep. 5 | God's Finest Gifts | Elder Lawrence E. Corbridge

Your Eternal Father loves you more than anyone has ever loved another. All He does is for you and His children. He offers you and all His children everywhere supernal gifts, but most of His children neither receive nor rejoice in His marvelous gifts, and as a result, they are weak and unhappy, and heaven weeps with them. Can you imagine the sadness and disappointment of Our Father if we do not accept His magnificent gifts, when His children ignore Him after all He has done? Enoch saw that not only Heavenly Father but the whole of the heavens weep when we refuse or neglect His gifts. What are the greatest gifts our Father offers all His children everywhere from the beginning of time? His Son, His Spirit, and His life. Those are God’s greatest gifts to His children. To accept and receive those gifts is the best of all human conditions. What is the inconceivably high price paid to make them available? The creation, the fall, the Atonement of Jesus Christ, and all the Gods have done and do “… to bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man.” Words cannot describe, nor can we conceive or measure the height, the breadth, the depth of the gift of God’s own Son. “No tongue can speak, neither can there be written by any man, neither can the hearts of men conceive (anything) so great and marvelous” as Jesus Christ, the Son of God by whom salvation and all good things are possible.

aflevering Everything 'Heretic' Got Right and Incorrect About Latter-day Saints artwork

Everything 'Heretic' Got Right and Incorrect About Latter-day Saints

Heretic is a fictional horror film featuring two sister missionaries of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, sometimes known as the Mormon Church or the LDS Church. They fight to survive a deadly game of cat and mouse as the villain Mr. Reed (played by Hugh Grant) traps them in his house and strings them along a horrific path of religious deconstruction. Today I’m going to fact-check nearly every religious thing in this film, since the movie spends considerable time treating the doctrine, practices, and history of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. We’re going to evaluate its discussion of polygamy, magic underwear, birth control, reincarnation, and a lot more. At the end, I’ll give my take and overall review on how well I think the film Heretic did representing my own faith. CONTENT NOTE: Scripture Central illuminates and defends divine truth. Our efforts to shine light on darkness necessitated our engagement with content which is not virtuous, lovely, nor of good report, so that our viewers may be informed and able to address concerns and criticisms which arise from friends, colleagues or other associates. We regret any distress this causes our loyal audience.
