This video discusses how and why the Word of Wisdom revelation was ‘phased-in’ over a 100 year period. Critics use this to try and shock members through ‘presentism’ - judging the past by the standards of today. In a recent study, a surprising number of active young church members seem to be living this principle in a more casual way - possibly using this history as justification? The video concludes with why trying to live this principle may be even more important than some realize.
