These aren’t just “student protests.” This is an Islamo-Marxist revolution.

That's what it says 😂😂 #CollegeGameDay

The difference between America and Europe 🤣

One year ago on Joe Rogan, Elon Musk teased Tesla’s next-generation Roadster, hinting that it could fly using SpaceX-tech, promising an unforgettable demonstration . . . today, his Roadster lifted off, flipped in midair & landed using built-in thrusters.

JUST IN: Elon Musk unveils the Tesla Roadster by launching it off a ramp before the car flipped in midair and safely landed on the ground. The car is a collaboration between Tesla and SpaceX. One of the most insane things I've ever seen.

So many people have a false view of Mormon missionaries. I have known Mormon missionaries for longer than most people on this platform have been alive, and in all that time what I have seen them do is spread the love of Jesus Christ. I remember a widow who lived on my street. She was not a member of the Church. After her husband died the lawn stopped getting mowed, because he was the one who mowed it. The grass grew up past her ankles. Everyone on the street could see it. Everyone drove past it. Two kids in white shirts stopped. They were maybe nineteen. They did not knock and ask if she wanted to hear a message. They mowed the lawn. Then they came back with groceries. Nobody took a picture. Nobody posted about it. She never joined their church, and they kept coming anyway. A sales pitch ends when the customer says no. These boys heard no and showed up the next Saturday with a lawn mower. Those are the missionaries I have known for 40 years. Kids who left home, left school, left their girlfriends, and paid their own way to spend two years cutting a stranger's grass. It's not a sales pitch.

Evangelical Christians have a more positive view of American Jews than almost any other group in America, second only to LDS. Evangelicals are +39 in favorability of Jews. Ironically, it doesn't go the other way. American Jews have a -40 favorability rating toward Evangelicals. Pew Research Strong support for Israel in rural red America too

Look, this guy @LeaderJohnThune is obviously a democrat infiltrator. What I don’t understand is why no Republican Senators are calling for him to be removed or to resign. @JDVance has the authority to take over the Senate but that’s not happening either. They’re all compromised.

Charlie Kirk was the best of us, and he was kiIIed by the worst of us

NHM refers to inscriptions on three altars from the Bar'an temple near Marib, Yemen, naming a Nihmite (NHM) of the Nihm tribe/region, dated to the 7th-8th century BC. This matches Nahom in 1 Nephi 16:34 as a burial site on a south-southeast route that turns east toward Bountiful candidates, with nearby ancient graves. LDS researchers view the name, timing, and location as converging archaeological support. Chiasmus is inverted parallelism (A-B-B-A), a classic Hebrew literary device. It appears extensively in the Book of Mormon, such as the elaborate structure in Alma 36, first noted by John Welch in 1967. Other Hebraisms like synonymous parallelisms and cognate forms further align with ancient Israelite writing styles.

Apologise for you ignorance if you must because the old and New Testiment fit perfectly together with the restored gospel, we don't have anything that is contrary. Every other faith is far more contrary to the gospel that was given in the Bible. The bible all speaks of Great Apostasy (falling away), temples, modern prophets, the Book of Mormon, and related doctrines. (I did draw on grok for this) - **Isaiah 2:2–3** (also found in **Micah 4:1–2**): “And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the Lord’s house shall be established in the top of the mountains (Utah is the Ute Native word for tops of the mountains), and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it. And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.” This is fulfilled in the Salt Lake Temple (and other temples), the gathering to Zion in the mountains of Utah, and the worldwide temple-building program. Church leaders (including Orson Pratt, LeGrand Richards, and others) have repeatedly applied it this way. The same idea appears in the Book of Mormon as 2 Nephi 12:2–3. ### Falling Away / Great Apostasy These verses are used to show that a widespread falling away from the original Church and priesthood authority was prophesied and began in the early Christian era: **Old Testament** - **Amos 8:11–12**: A famine “not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord.” People would seek the word and not find it. - **Isaiah 24:5**: “They have transgressed the laws, changed the ordinance, broken the everlasting covenant.” - **Isaiah 29:13–14**: People draw near with their lips but their hearts are far; the Lord will do “a marvellous work and a wonder” (interpreted as the Restoration). - **Isaiah 60:2**: Darkness covering the earth, followed by the Lord’s rising and glory being seen. **New Testament** - **2 Thessalonians 2:1–3**: “That day shall not come, except there come a falling away first” (Greek: *apostasia*). - **Acts 20:29–30**: After Paul’s departure, “grievous wolves” will enter and men from within will “draw away disciples.” - **1 Timothy 4:1–3**: In the latter times some will “depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils.” - **2 Timothy 4:3–4**: People will not endure sound doctrine but will “heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears” and turn to fables. - **Galatians 1:6–8**: Paul marvels that they are “so soon removed… unto another gospel.” - **Matthew 24:4–5, 10–12, 24**: False Christs, false prophets, many falling away, love waxing cold. - **2 Peter 2:1–3**: False teachers bringing in damnable heresies. - **Jude 3–4, 17–19**: Ungodly men creeping in and turning grace into lasciviousness. - **Revelation 13** (and related chapters): The beast making war with the saints and overcoming them. Additional related passages often mentioned include Acts 20:28–30 context, 1 Corinthians divisions, and the pattern of apostasy seen in Israel’s history. ### Restoration of the Gospel, Church, and Priesthood These are paired with the apostasy verses to show a prophesied restoration was needed and would occur: - **Acts 3:19–21**: “Times of refreshing… until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets.” - **Revelation 14:6–7**: An angel flying “having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people.” - **Daniel 2:34–35, 44–45**: A stone cut without hands that becomes a great mountain filling the earth—a kingdom set up by God that shall never be destroyed. - **Malachi 3:1** and **4:5–6**: Messenger of the covenant and Elijah the prophet turning the hearts of the fathers to the children (linked to the Kirtland Temple visit and sealing keys). - **Joel 2:28–32**: Pouring out of the Spirit upon all flesh in the last days. - **Amos 3:7**: “Surely the Lord God will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.” - **Ephesians 4:11–14**: Apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers given “till we all come in the unity of the faith… that we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro.” - **Ephesians 1:10**: Dispensation of the fulness of times, gathering together all things in Christ. - **Isaiah 11**: Rod out of the stem of Jesse, ensign for the nations, gathering (Moroni quoted this to Joseph Smith). - **James 1:5**: “If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God…” (the verse that prompted Joseph Smith’s First Vision). ### Additional Commonly Used Scriptures **Book of Mormon / Additional Witness** - **Ezekiel 37:15–19**: The stick of Judah and the stick of Joseph becoming one (interpreted as the Bible and the Book of Mormon). - **John 10:16**: “Other sheep I have, which are not of this fold.” - **Isaiah 29**: Sealed book, learned man, “marvellous work and a wonder” (linked to the coming forth of the Book of Mormon). - **Genesis 49:22–26**: Joseph as a fruitful bough whose branches run over the wall. **Ordinances, Degrees of Glory, and Authority** - **1 Corinthians 15:29**: Baptism for the dead. - **1 Corinthians 15:40–42**: Celestial, terrestrial, and other glories. - **Hebrews 5:4**: No man takes the honor of the priesthood unto himself but is called of God. - **Matthew 16:18–19** and related key passages: Keys of the kingdom. - **Malachi 4:5–6** (already noted): Sealing power and family history work. **Modern Prophets and Continuing Revelation** - **Amos 3:7** (noted above). - **Ephesians 2:19–20**: Built upon the foundation of apostles and prophets. - **Acts 3:22–23**: A prophet like unto Moses whom the people must hear.

Yes. Many original Book of Mormon phrases (plates of brass, dreamed a dream, repetitive ands, if-and conditionals) read awkward or ungrammatical in English yet match standard Hebrew grammar and style. Later edits smoothed some for readability. They fit a close translation from an ancient Hebrew-like source better than ordinary 19th-century English.
