Yes, the atonement's power to change is staggering, muffrow,...er,..meneer.

I knew there was something familiar about that smile 😊

The skepticism that God is not a scientist is the incorrect belief that God created natural laws, instead of natural laws have always existed, and God understands them, and how to work with them perfectly.

My father was a paleobotanist and he taught me that He knows all truth from all senses and situations and that science as we know it is very far below Him.

Maybe more of an engineer than scientist "Science is the body of knowledge that explores the physical and natural world. Engineering is the application of knowledge in order to design, build and maintain a product or a process that solves a problem and fulfills a need (i.e. a technology)."

@@beefmaster4 I would say that He is ALL things, which would also include an engineer 😀

Actually he is a mathematician.

We are so glad. We hope you enjoyed the episode!

Thank you for sharing. Dr. Allred is great!

You can observe particulate matter.

⁠​⁠@@hahabarkim doing that right now staring at the food on my plate. Now i know the secrets of the universe🤦‍♂️ Like he said, it takes just as much faith to believe everything came from nothing, as it does to believe in a creator. Neither propositions can be observed. Just be honest with yourself and admit you live by as much faith as the rest of us and don’t be so arrogant to think anyone has the answer. We both dont know and put our faith in different things. But we both live by faith.

Hmm...Maybe it's because Christ's Resurrection gives us the hope & assurance that life goes on, even in that place of mortal endings. "Oh death, where is they sting?" Thanks for giving me more pause for thought. But what do you think?

I started the episode and ended the episode in a cemetery because it's an Easter-themed episode celebrating the victory of Christ over death. :)

Each gospel author names different people. Matthew mentions "Mary Magdalene and the other Mary." Mark mentions "Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome." Luke mentions "Mary Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary the mother of James, and other women that were with them." John only mentions Mary Magdalene.

I hope you don't mind my questioning your ue of the word "bragged'. I don't think Jesus bragged. I believe He was "🎉😢warning" people who were the most righteoue❤

@paraleeeckman1728 I used brag because in 3rd Nephi 9, Jesus speaks from the heavens about his great accomplishments and then asks those who remain to believe in him and be healed after he maimed them. I understand why Joseph had to destroy these cities into mounds of earth (see moundbuilder myth), but this Jesus is inconsistent with the New Testament Jesus. I feel for the other sheep he visited. He probably destroyed even more cities.

I think you may have overlooked two very important facts (which I will split into 2 separate replies for you to consider.) First, never once in any of the scriptures did God destroy the wicked without first warning them to stop their wicked ways and return to him. He didn't warn them just once, he warned them over and over again, personally, through the light of Christ within each of them, also through promptings from the Holy Ghost, and collectively through prophets. He didn't just give them days or weeks of warning. He gave them centuries of warning. Remember that after the flood, Ham, Japeth and Shem, who would become the fathers of the future human race, all had the true gospel and taught it to their children. Over time, the faith of many dwindled as they forgot "whose" they were. They adulterated the true gospel of Jesus Christ to fit their whims to the point of apostasy. Even so, we can see from very ancient writings that they still had remnants of the gospel in their cultures. The wholesale rejection of gospel truth almost always leads to tyranny. When tyranny prevails, those who still believe are persecuted. Even the more righteous can become lackadaisical in their worship, so the Lord will allow it for a time to help them remember him and their covenants. Keep in mind that the people in ancient America had become very wicked before Christ's death and resurrection, apparently so wicked that they were fully ripe in iniquity--ripe enough for destruction. Also, we know that there was an earthquake in Jerusalem at the time of Christ's crucifixion large enough to tear the veil of the temple. It would be naive to assume there was no other destruction just because the disciples didn't write about the details. When he asked God to "forgive them', he was talking about the Roman soldiers, not the wicked pharisees. Mass destruction did come to Jerusalem in 70AD, just 36 years later. Time to repent?

Second, the other important fact to remember is that the entire purpose of God's work is to bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of all of God's children. Because He loves us and wants us to be capable of coming back into his presence forever, he is willing to meet us where we are and work with us. He never leaves us where he finds us, but encourages to repent and keep moving forward. However, he will never force us. He can only inspire, motivate, teach and warn. If we choose to reject his help and instead move further away from his teachings to the point of being truly wicked and endangering the life and well being of the more righteous, then he intervenes. If the wicked will not repent and return, then for the sake of the righteous he must destroy the wicked. He almost always uses one group of the wicked to destroy another group of the the wicked. These patterns can be seen throughout the scriptures. They are repeating again in our day and will culminate shortly before the Savior returns in glory. Our God is a merciful and just God. Those whom he "destroyed" from the earth are removed from this mortal existence and returned to the spirit world where they can learn gospel truths and are given the opportunity to repent before the final judgement.

Christians as a whole have cared about Easter since the day Jesus Christ fulfilled the prophesy of resurrection.

The church has always cared about Easter!🌷🙏🏻✨️
