Come Follow Me - 3 Nephi 12-16: The Sermon at the Temple

[@davidspjut9365]

Brother Jared…I remember long ago, of you telling us of a blessing that you had personally received….you were blessed with the energy to extend your mission as a teacher of the Lords word😇. I am so grateful for this energy of the Spirit of Truth that you are so gifted to convey to us👍. I was amazed four years ago, then…and am even more-so, now…by the rich clarity and understanding that you so readily convey to us….even from varied texts of scripture. Thank you again, our good brother, to your faithful dedication, to extend your mission, and extending your gifted teaching to us…your faithful Unshaken classroom! Keep up the good work Jared💥💥💥…we love and pray for you😇❤️. David

To know the OPPOSITE is so important! I grew up in Utah..from 0 to 18. Was always active in the Church. But at 18 I wanted to live alone in a big city for a year... and chose San Francisco. 1968. And BAM! For the first time, being among NON-members, I never felt so "MORMON" in my life. Since my beliefs colored every area of my life, and I was open and shared my beliefs and culture with all the non-member friends and fellow workers in my company...I grew to realize 1. How different I was from others. 2. How MUCH those kind people wanted to protect this naive kid from things they knew I was not to do! 😊 3. How big and DIFFERENT the world was... And I never felt more like an example to those around me of what we believe. They were curious, protective, often tried good-naturedly tempting me, but were so respectful of my choices to stay firm. We often don't know what we have or believe until we see/ know the opposite.

Thank you 🤍 so many golden nuggets in one place.. saving to my favorites. Brain fog has gotten worse this year… I am very grateful for spiritual supplements.

Moroni 7:12-18 is such a good chapter to enhance the tight way to judge. This is good for our own safety and for our family.

[@beckywright7906]

I loved this, I felt Christ teaching me through this fantastic lesson. It’s a favorite section of the Book of Mormon for me. Thanks so much!

[@harrisonbeckett1545]

Avery great experience thankyou for shareing this narrative you are an excellant teacher

[@jerikeeley1361]

Thank you. I gained new insights as I pondered this with you.

[@alicewongham3541]

What a great lesson. As usual! I'll have to go back and re-listen to it when I have a chance to sit down with my scriptures.

[@paulagraves6517]

I think too that the best way to overcome any sin is to come to love the Godhead more than the sin.

[@disciplesofjesuschrist2026]

And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent John 17:3....To KNOW GOD IS LIFE ETERNAL...not that it will be eternal or can be eternal but IS LIFE ETERNAL.Do YOU have Life Eternal? If you KNOW GOD, you have eternal life. the promise is assured after judgement to those who know. To know means to know and obedience to that knowledge as they are synonymous

[@RogerKartchner]

Jared, I like it when you wear a white shirt and tie!!

[@isabellee7212]

Thank you for your lessons!! Always amazing!!!

[@JJones.SideKick]

Brother Halverson, I loved it when you said the BoM is the 'Sign' of the Gathering of Israel. As an Ordinance worker in the Temple that word, Sign, takes on significant meaning other than it's regular definition. It focuses my mind on Eternal things as opposed to earthly. I, too, can't wait for more records to come forth! I loved your attitude when explaining our additional scripture to your theological buddies and can't wait for the Lord to bring more!!! I lament the death of Joseph because I long to know what else he would have written had he been allowed to live. My soul has always sought for eternal truths, since I was 14 y.o. That hasn't changed. I can't wait!!!! Thank you for sharing your comprehension of why we feel scattered. You hit the nail on the head! Thank you, dear brother. God bless you!!!

[@gregfanger6259]

Listened to the extended version yesterday. Thank you for your insight. Also went to the original version in the Bible and Book of Mormon with greater understanding.

Comfort them and gather together unto Christ. Thank you very much. 😍👏

Good morning brother Jared

[@RosePetal-j2i]

Love you brother Halverson ! I’ve been in your home

[@dinocollins720]

Thanks bro Halverson!!! This was powerful!

[@novawarren5089]

Good morning Brother Jared Halverson I really agree wonderful years ago videos then,I am going to watch them both kept the books on studying also... It's fabulous hearing Jesus teach . I'm just getting out of the hospital from a 5 day stay,why 1 pill might be the culprit and I never wanted it years, I think many people have such issues. Please watch out for such things Electrictrlyites can really help find peace in our bodies and mind It's like Scriptures and prayers 🙏. 9:53

About the "pearls and swine". Like the old saying, "all it does is waste your time and irritate the pig"

[@leahrindlesbach6006]

One time when I was babysitting, my brother that is just younger than me said, “you’re breaking the commandments!” After I told him to do something. I was like no I’m not. He said “yes, you’re committing adultery!” I had to explain to him that adulterer was not acting like an adult when you really aren’t one. 8:32

I wonder about leaving our known/recognized sins at the alter and then going to serve and love our brother as a first step to loving God more fully.

I’m writing about the last post. Seeking your permission to use your poem in this week’s CFM discussion group. FYI Soy el presidente de la escuela dominical. Waldport Oregon.

I really liked the left hand and right hand analogy to the natural, carnal self, versus the spiritual covenant-making (and hopefully covenant-keeping) self. I will definitely stea-- I mean, borrow it. (Dont want to have to cut my hand off)

[@catherinealexander282]

Would love to hear your thoughts about Dave Butler's book In The Language of Adam! I have thoroughly enjoyed learning from you and, with learning from Dave Butler, and watching a conversation between the two of you would either amazing or not. Thinking amazing. You've stretched symbolism like I did in grad school which is essential to further studying, particularly parables and the visionary prophets. When Jesus Christ and Book of Mormon quote Isaiah, it is time to knock, ask and be answered!!

[@angiemendoza5711]

But Jared…..what about CHRISTIANS we have been persecuted also and today it is at the worst ALL OVER THE WORLD!!! I’ve been reading about Christian persecution and am shocked at how we have been destroyed but covered up with persecution of others all around. Satan hates and destroys ALL BELievers!!!! God bless you Bro Hal!!! Your videos have changed my life!!

[@michellemaddox17]

Could you share the video you talked about where you go into more detail about reconciling with your neighbor and then with God? This is a contrary I need to spend more time pondering and studying. Some say I can't love them and be a part of this religion. Some say I can't love them and vote for the person I am voting for. How do I reconcile that? I will not leave my religion or convictions for that person. And no matter what I do they will never understand why I stay. But if I only have love and show kindness towards them is there more I need to do on my end before I can come back to the alter?

Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery: But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust. Ye have heard that it was said of them of old time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment. Matthew 5 Pharisees, Sadducees, Priests and Scribes: "Who do you think you are Jesus? God?.. Jesus: "Well , actually I gave the Law to Moses upon Mount Sinai and I have decided that that Old Law is fulfilled because I gave the Law and being God, I have decided that Love is greater than violence or just physical responses to law, "So yes IAM God and you would not have had any Law if it wasn't for Me, so in the last 1400 years since Moses you have been living My Old Law but its time for an update". "So dont be offended because , I Am as (The Son of God) authorized to fulfill former laws that are outdated that you continue to follow, which needs an upgrade because you haven't progressed or become better persons from the Laws I gave to Moses". "Ok OK I had a different name back then, your fathers may have known Me as Jehovah but that shouldn't be new to you because I gave Abram a new name (Abraham) and Jacob a new name (Israel), so dont be surprised because I had a former name. "Now let Me tell you about My transition from Jehovah to Jesus Christ", on second thought, lets do that at another time because the stones you are taking up seem to be attached to the principles of the Old Law I Am trying to help you understand and overcome but the message does not seem to be getting through.

[@racheladorno9923]

A good friend of mine is losing her testimony primarily because some of her kids are gay and she feels the Church's policies on same sex attraction are too harsh. That lead to no longer sustaining the prophet and I'm concerned is leading to losing her faith in Christ. What can I say to her?

[@jabblesowen4583]

Remember what he has taught: love the person without validating sin. The scriptures are God’s word & the Proclamation on the Family is true. Bryce on How to Think Celestial from Scripture Central is an ah mazing talk. Maybe take to lunch /dinner & listen together. And prayers/ fasting.

[@novawarren5089]

I was listening really close ,watching more than watch more than once He has others in different places other than 3 placed Isreal, America's The ships that left for different reasons and one military man and son left with them. I also heard one current day Prophet asked where are they whom left in the Many Ships He was told, then told us! But more Other people in Isla ds 2 different American people had visions of Jesus coming in suits with Book 📖 Of their lost family history. Then islands of the sea Why so many people who ate up The Book Of Mormon 📖 Yes Indeed ❤️ It's us who let dust grow 😊upon the many books I don't want

[@leswalker2639]

If you're going to be in the Lord's Church there will always be change if you don't like change them something's wrong with you. Everybody is moving and changing, you can't just sit in a tent when there is a war going on around you between Good and evil. I assume you drive to work everyday and you have to change up your route every now and then. If you can't change when there are challenges in your life it's going to be much tougher to handle the load mentally and spiritually. It's a lot more simple when you invite change and a chance to learn even though the task is hard. You didn't go through school only to stop learning or a new job, life is a challenge constantly.

STAY IN THE ACTUAL SCRIPTURES ..ENUFF YOUR PERSONAL OPINIONS ...CONFUSING.

[@lizzieroberts7353]

Sorry to say that number 39 lecture on the beautiful beatitudes in the Americas has been spoiled by a gabbling, jabbering disrespectful presentation. So disappointing. It may be ok for teenagers but I am part of a wide audience that expects word pronunciation that doesn’t cause us to wince. Your HUNTING is actually haunting. Similar laxity in vowels GAD instead of GOD. . Scriptures are worthy of a formal discussion in clear and gentle sentences. It’s not bar chat.
