That was beautiful! I love the temple so much. The thing I was surprised the most by when I went through the temple the first time was something Jasmin said, that so much of the temple is a reiteration of our baptismal covenants and a reiteration of commandments and lessons easily found in the scriptures. It’s such a special place, though, where it is quiet and we can learn so deeply about these foundational truths. They’re the basics, the beginning, but they’re also the deepest truths of God and we will learn more about them no matter how much we study for our whole lives.

Thank you for doing this podcast, and thank you for having Jasmin on. She's one of my favorites. She's beautiful, thoughtful, strong, non-apologetic, and courageous in bringing the truths to everyone. What a great episode!

My friends, thank you for sharing your experience in your search for God. I just heard the testimony of a former BYU professor Lynn Wilder. I was shocked to learn that in Doctrine and Covenants 132:34-35 it teaches that God commanded Abraham to take Hagar as his second wife. This is a plain contradiction to what it says in Genesis. There is nowhere in the Bible that God commands polygamy. Secondly I was shocked to learn that at the temple they were singing a hymn to praise Joseph Smith. This goes against God’s word. We should only be singing praise to God and his son Jesus, no person is worthy of our worship. My friends, out of love I must caution you. These two issues are major red flags that the mormon church is a man made religion. I am praying for you, that the Lord will give you strength to leave. We all have to stand before God one day, don’t worry about what people or family might say or do to you. There is no need for the temple anymore because Jesus was the final sacrifice, the lamb who takes away the sins of the world. There is no way we can be righteous enough to enter heaven. Only God can make us righteous. Jesus said in John 5:24 “I tell you the truth whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be condemned; he has crossed over from death to life.”
