Relates the Book of Mormon to American Indians and the gathering of Israel. [A.C.W.] P.002 P. “Untitled.” TS 3 (1 September 1842): 906-8. A transcription of part of a conversation between a clergyman and a “saint” discussing the Book of Mormon as a revelation, why the gold plates are not on display, and the propriety of angelic visitations in this enlightened age. [D.M.] P.003 Pack, Frederick J. “The Book of Mormon.” DN Church Section (13 June 1936): 5. Pack defends the veracity of the Book of Mormon and defends the Book of Mormon claim that horses existed on the American continent. [B.D.] P.004 Pack, Frederick J. “The Book of Mormon—In the Test.” DN Church Section (2 July 1932): 4. Pack defends the veracity of the Book of Mormon, dismisses the Spaulding Theory, reminds his listeners that the Three Witnesses never denied their testimonies, and reiterates Moroni’s promise (Moroni 10:4) that all may know the truth of the Book of Mormon through prayer. [B.D.] P.005 Pack, Frederick J. “The Book of Mormon—Its Purport and Message.” DN Church Section (16 July 1932): 4, 8.

[J.W.M.] P.006 Pack, Frederick J. “A New Scripture.” MS 98 (9 July 1936): 434-36. Gives logical evidences that support the Book of Mormon, including the short amount of time it took Joseph Smith to translate the Book of Mormon, the Three Witnesses testied of it’s truth to their dying day, archaeological discoveries, and more.

Those who go to war should keep the commandments and not become “conscientious objectors.” The Book of Mormon justies war when defending lives, country, and religion.

[D.M.] P.020 Packer, Boyd K. “The Library of the Lord.” Ensign 20 (May 1990): 36-38.

Afrms the Book of Mormon’s importance in testifying of Christ and validating the Old and New Testaments. [E.G.] P.021 Packer, Boyd K. “Publication of LDS Edition of the Scriptures.” CR (October 1982): 73-77. With the publication of the new LDS edition of the scriptures, the complete fulllment of Ezekiel’s prophecy of two sticks (records) has come to pass. The Book of Mormon will now have the title, “Another Testament of Jesus Christ,” so the two sticks are now one. [R.C.D.] P.022 Packer, Boyd K. “Scriptures.” Ensign 12 (November 1982): 51-53. Also in CR (October 1982): 73-77. Ezekiel 37 tells of the sticks of Judah and Joseph that will become one in the hands of the user. This prophecy began to come true when the Book of Mormon was published. Gives the historical setting of the printing of the book and the progressive steps toward the new edition of the scriptures. This massive undertaking draws the Bible and the Book of Mormon into one. [J.W.M.] P.023 Packer, Boyd K. “The Things of My Soul.” Ensign 16 (May 1986): 59-61. Also in CR (5-6 April 1986): 73-78. Gives an introduction to the Book of Mormon for those who have never read it. The book is not ctional, biographical, or historical, nor is it merely a novel. It has profound value as a book and possesses a sacred message and a promise. [J.W.M.] P.024 Packer, James S. “John Lloyd Stephens and the Mayas.” Ensign 2 (September 1972): 50-53. John Lloyd Stephens’s discoveries of 1839 are a physical witness to the Book of Mormon.

  • Homily 4Th Sun Advent Mary Mother of God .Docx
    Homily 4th Sunday of Advent: Mary, Mother of Jesus Fr. Dwight P. Campbell, S.T.D. The Gospel for this fourth Sunday of Advent is from St. Luke, who tells us how the Blessed Virgin Mary visited Elizabeth, her cousin. This took place right after Mary conceived Jesus.But the theme of the first two readings this Sunday is the Incarnation and Birth of Our Lord. The first reading comes from the Old T. Prophet Micah – his great prophecy that the Messiah would be born in the little town of Bethlehem, the city of King David’s birth: “From you [Bethlehem] shall come forth for me one who is to be ruler in Israel.” Based upon Old Testament prophecies, the Jews were expecting their Messiah to be a king in the line of King David; he would also a beshepherd, just as King David was, and so Micah says: “He shall stand firm and shepherd his flock by the strength of the Lord.” In His humanity Jesus was a king in the line of King David. In his Gospel St. Luke tells us that St. Joseph, the legal father of Jesus and husband of Mary, was a descendent of King David. This is why when the Roman Emperor, Caesar Augustus, ordered a census be done and that everyone be registered in the birthplace of their ancestors, Joseph and Mary went to Bethlehem, and it was there that the Savior was born. Our second reading is from the Epistle to the Hebrews, words that are understood to be placed on the lips of Jesus: “Sacrifices and offerings you did not desire, but a body you prepared for me” – a body fashioned by the Holy Spirit in the womb of the Virgin Mary.

  • Latter-Day Saint Kinship: the Salvific Power of the Family
    Latter-Day Saint Kinship: The Salvific Power of the Family Louisa Fowler Honors Defense Date: May 6th, 2020 ​ ​ Thesis Advisor: Professor Christopher Vecsey Defense Committee: Professor Benjamin Stahlberg Professor Steven Kepnes Introduction Since its inception in 1830, the people of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Days have evoked reactions from the public, ranging from confusion to outrage. In turn, the Church community has struggled to fit into secular society. The Church has constantly worked to craft and improve its relationship with the world. Recently, in 2018, Latter-Day Saint President Russell M. Nelson explained that the “Lord has impressed upon [his] mind the importance of the name he has revealed for the Church.”1 Latter-Day Saints reject the title ‘Mormons,’ asking outsiders to refer to members of the Church as Latter-Day Saints. Non-members of the Church misunderstand the Latter-Day Saint community, right down to its name. For the last two centuries, the Church community has been mysterious and confusing to the ‘outside world.’ What exactly do the Latter-Day Saints believe? Why do they behave the way that they do? Why do they seem so ‘other’, in relation to the greater society in which they live? This thesis will utilize the lens of the Latter-Day social structure-- from family life to marital expectations, to dating guidelines-- in order to demonstrate that this religion is unique due to its view of the family as sacred. An understanding of Latter-Day Saints’ family life is the key to understanding their Church because Latter-Day Saint religion is deeply relational, embedded in gender, marriage, and the family.

  • C. a Chronological List of Pertinent Writings on Bible Quotations and Language Uses That Are Part of the Book of Mormon
    C. A Chronological List of Pertinent Writings on Bible Quotations and Language Uses That Are Part of the Book of Mormon In his well-researched book, Mormons and the Bible, Harvard-trained Philip L. Barlow, a noted scholar on American religious history, writes the following: The Bible’s broad influence in America from the time of the initial English settlements seems intuitively obvious . the scriptures were prominent from the first (see Hath and Noll, eds., The Bible in America). .l . In 1816, a national organization had formed in order to—as its constitution put it— “claim our place in the age of Bibles.” In less than four years the American Bible Society had distributed nearly one hundred thousand copies of the Holy Book. (see Whitney R. Cross, The Burned- Over District: The Social and Intellectual History of Enthusiastic Religion in Western New York, 1800-1850, p. 127) After some further discussion Barlow writes: All their lives the Smiths were a Bible-believing family in a Bible-believing culture. Into such a family, at the turn of the nineteenth century, Joseph Smith Jr., the future Mormon prophet, was born. He produced more scripture—scripture that at once challenged yet reinforced biblical authority, and that echoed biblical themes, interpreted biblical passages, shared biblical content, corrected biblical errors, filled biblical gaps, was built with biblical language, and restored biblical methods, namely the prophetic process itself. (Source: Philip L. Barlow, Mormons and the Bible: The Place of the Latter-day Saints in American Religion. Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1991, p. 3-5, 10-12.) In view of such conditions, it was not surprising that from the very beginning, questions arose as to the biblical content of the Book of Mormon.

  • Twelve Diatribes of Modern Israel
    Twelve Diatribes of Modern Israel Avraham Gileadi This essay serves as a testimony to modern Israel—the Latter-day Saints—that we are beginning to resemble God’s ancient covenant people in ways that conict with our high ideals. Some parallels between the two peoples provide a yardstick by which we can judge ourselves. Unfortunately, these parallels paint a dismal picture of where we are headed and what is in store. If the type or pattern we draw from the parallels holds true,1 then by following the parallels through to their conclusion we will know what to expect in our generation. Next to actual prophecy, scriptural types provide the most reliable guide to the future, particularly to the last days. Indeed, all true prophets prophesy, more or less, using types and shadows from Israel’s ancient past to predict the future. By familiarizing ourselves with the ancient types, we will know both a sickness and its cure; we will recognize our present condition and know what its outcome must be. Because biblical parallels do not directly threaten us, we could keep ourselves aloof from their message. Such aloofness, I would point out, is out of character with the man whom I salute in this essay: Hugh Nibley exemplies one who comes to terms with hidden errors, who searches out the truth, who speaks the unspeakable. He frankly criticizes the Saints, warning and admonishing as well as teaching and instructing them. He serves as a perfect example of the Lord sending “prophets, and wise men, and scribes” to his people (Matthew 23:34; emphasis added).

His documents not only fooled world­class collectors and authenticators, they fit neatly into Mormon history. Though much of the information presented in them was falsified, his convincing handwriting, inclusion of meticulously researched historical minutiae, and ability to capture the voice of early Church members ensured that no one could believe they were fakes. A handful of key forgeries raised suspicions about Mormon origins and the historical tradition in which they had been retold earlier in the twentieth century.

JOLLY JOSEPH DANIELSON, CT 2012 Introduction What does Mary mean to us today? The Blessed Virgin Mary has an important place in the life of every Christian. She accompanied Jesus from His conception in her womb until His death on the cross. In doing so she followed Jesus in a perfect manner. Since we as Christians are the followers of Jesus, Mary is able to show us how to follow Jesus. Therefore, I will endeavor to explain how the Blessed Virgin Mary’s life is a model of Christian discipleship. The first chapter of this thesis will recount how Mary is described in the New Testament. The New Testament begins its account of Mary’s life with the Annunciation. The Archangel appears to her and announces her selection to be the mother of Jesus.
