You will also learn details about who the "Magi" were, where they came from, and why they came to see Jesus.

    2025/12/07

  • The Origin of the Concept of a War in Heaven
    2025/11/07
    Host Martin Tanner provides a description and details about the Jewish, Early Christian and Latter-day Saint ideas of a War in Heaven, as found in Isaiah 14:12-20; Revelation 12:7-9; D&C 29:36-38; Abraham 3:24-28; and Moses 4:14. The war was over free will, agency and the ability to act without coercion. This is also the underlying scriptural basis for the idea that Jesus and Satan are "spirit brothers" which is often distorted by Church critics. The fundamental difference of opinion over whether people should be able to choose or should be coerced is played out in many settings throughout the world every day. The "War Scroll" in the Dead Sea Scrolls contains an incredibly detailed account of the final battle between good and evil, between freedom and coercion.

  • The Kinderhook Plates Incident; and, The Zelph Incident
    2025/10/31
    Although critics and anti-Mormons try to suggest the Kinderhook Plates demonstrate Joseph Smith was not a true prophet, the opposite is true. Joseph detected them to be fakes and never translated them. Critics also try to claim the Zelph incident shows Joseph Smith was a false prophet. During the Zion's Camp march, Joseph Smith received revelation about a large skeleton that was unearthed, saying the person was "Zelph," a Lamanite (Native American) prophet. The statements of Joseph Smith must be taken on faith as true by those who believe he was a prophet, or disbelieved by skeptics due to their lack of faith. There is no scientific evidence to prove or disprove Joseph Smith's statements about Zelph.
