If you can`t see God everywhere, you cant see God anywhere. That`s beautifull! It makes every religious conversation, with any denomination, an edifying one. When we were studying the old testament with Come Follow Me I learned so much about the context of the OT watching rabis teaching about some of the OT passages here on KZfaq... Its beautifull how the Lord allows everyone of us to have different parts of His history so we can learn and grow from eachother. Its so great to have my faith built by brothers from other religions. That happens when we have such delightfull conversations like that, no one trying to talk eachother faith`s down, just build upon it.

And Joseph's words echo the Jewish Rabbi, Maimonides (from c. 1200). I'd love to see more of this kind of pluralist dialogue in the LDS church. The idea of one true church creates walls that only limit our ability to understand truth.

@Kimmer 3 ай бұрын

@@BryceMtn I agree to a point with you. I certainly believe that some truth can be found in all religions as well as science. For members of the LDS faith, there is no conflict between science and religion as often is the case with many religions who are closed to accepting new information or interpretation of scientific data. However, we also believe that God is not an author of confusion, and that the philosophies of men have crept into doctrines of many religions such that their contradictory teachings cannot all be true. So, we do believe that God has restored his true Church with his authority that is critical. That is the message from the Church of Jesus Christ of latter-day Saints. That doesn't mean that we don't recognize the good and common truths found in other's beliefs, and we certainly don't believe that all others not of our faith are going to burn in hell (like some other churches teach). We invite everyone to search our beliefs and decide for themselves if what we teach is true. God bless!

They don't just speak to the strength of the Book of Mormon itself but also illuminate the immense, boundless love that God has for His children.

I watch Mark Biltz from El Shaddai ministries and have learned SO MUCH from him about the things you have said! He has really good books explains these festivals and other rituals and ties them together with Christianity. He’s truly someone you should explore. He sounds “country” but because of his interest and research, rabbis are having him come teach to them as well as they come to his Christian congregation to teach the Torah portion. With a rabbi, he’s creating a correct Hebrew translation Bible to include the New Testament. It makes it fun to see that Joseph Smith is correct in his interpretation and what he could have accomplished had he not been murdered.

I've seen several Christian channels and they seem extremely focused on why they're right and everybody just needs to accept what they say. They come off very confrontational/adversarial and I never feel the Spirit. I come away from those videos being condemned. This video very much brought the Spirit and it brought peace and joy.

This is how we should all approach conversations of this type, regardless of differing viewpoints or methods of worship. I love how he tends to go straight for the depth and meaning. He's less concerned about evidences of this or that because the true test is what value does the text provide in leading us to God, and he knows how to look for and extract that.

Unfortunately, over the years we lost touch when I was in the military. I still think about him and all the conversations we had and how he taught me how to say and write “blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord “. I still have it written inside the front cover of my old book of Mormon, given to me as a gift by my mother, when I was a child.

I love this Rabbi and I'm very humbled to have found myself mesmerized by his speaking of the Book of Mormon. I could listen to him for hours! Thanks for a great video.

If he believed the BoM, he’d be a Mormon…

I've heard jewish religious songs online, and they are great, sounding like sung poems. Great that the Rabi visits us, we should also visit them at their sinagog.

He only shared his Biblical illiteracy, and his totally blind, lost, and deceived state.

@@Canut0 ,...I did not share opinion, I shared Biblical truth/fact. Both the jews and the mormons are completely Biblically illiterate, spiritually dead and blind, and 100% outside of the kingdom of God. They are both steeped in absolute darkness and deception and are both the accursed of God. Please read the Bible and learn what the truth of the Bible actually is.

What an amazing insight from the Rabbi. We certainly have a lot to learn from him in the way that we study and seek deeper understanding from the scriptures. I would love to hear his thoughts on the second half of 2 Nephi 29!

The Book of Mormon is written to the laminates and also the Jew and gentile as written in the title page of the Book of Mormon. I find it fascinating to listen to Jews that become converted to the church of Jesus of later-day saints.

I dont think we are meant to find "proof positive" God could give us the awnsers, but dont we find more from the indepth study, the journey. This is how god polishes us to be more perfect.

I always try to keep an open mind without being swayed by every wind of doctrine. (Not always successful) This Rabbi is doing exactly that. Cautiously seeking out truth.

As a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, I am far more interested in what Jews think of my religion and holy texts than I am in what other Christians think of them, because I believe that the LDS church is restored Judaism, with the key difference being our belief that Jesus is the Christ. Our faiths have a great deal in common, with most LDS being of the tribes of Ephraim and Manassah while most Jews being of the tribes of Judah and Levi. Latter-Day revelation has confirmed that one day the LDS and Jews will be reunited into one fold as part of the gathering of Israel and the restoration of all things under restored priesthood authority. There is so much both groups still have to learn from one another.

@forthosewithearstohear6219 3 ай бұрын

The cult of mormonism is a restored false manmade abomination. It is just as Godless and fake of a religion as is judaism. You are the blind looking to the blind. The dead looking to the dead. Yes your two false manmade Godless religions have a lot in common. They are both 100% false manmade frauds, and are the false religions of the accursed of God. Repent!.
