    Put a few academics together and you often find jealousy and one-ups-man-ship. Not here. Around this table sits a group of seekers that respect each other and learn from one another. They are willing show their soft, spiritual undersides and rejoice in new insights that they provide one another. They are personal favorites at Education Week over the years. I love these helps for Come, Follow Me and gospel doctrine. Thank you all so very much.

    Deep topic. Worthy of a second view. Thank you!
    Now that I've watched it a second time... and taken COPIOUS NOTES (practically a transcript!), a few things... First I express my deepest gratitude and thanks for your discussion of this topic! It's been something that I've been mulling over for DECADES, seeking to synthesize it down succinctly, which you have done. (I was looking too deeply at what the Abrahamic Covenant must mean, and missing it for the simplicity that it is.)
    The build-up of the historical components for contextual understanding and finishing with the Book of Mormon leads me to a wonderfully enriching appreciation for a much DEEPER meaning to scriptures that perhaps we don't fully comprehend in its symbolism to the degree that we should.
    One quote that jumped out at me "When WE recognize that WE ARE PART OF THE STORY, that we are of the house of Israel, the scriptures will speak to us in a different way."
    I also appreciated the MANY comments regarding the urgency in Nephi's, Moroni's, Mormon's and Isaiah's messages about OUR stepping up to the plate and doing OUR part in gathering Israel.
    What a stark reading in 3 Ne 10:5 vs 3 Ne 10:6... from the Lord Himself!
    I have spent far too long putting greater emphasis on the New Testament than I have in the Book of Mormon, resulting in my not understanding... no... comprehending it the way I should have. And that changes tonight!
    Thank you! For the answers to a LOT of prayers and ponderings!
    So, now... what am I going to do with it? What are WE going to do with it?
    (Now, how am I able to add a few more thumbs up?)

    Thank you for making me see that I can make the covenant of Abraham, Jacob and Isaac my own and why it is so important. I feel I finally understand that covenant better. Thank you!

    Excellent! Studying about the litteral and spiritual gathering of Israel and signs of the Second Coming of Christ has bolstered my faith. The prophecies are being fulfilled in very clear ways and the gathering of Israel is one of the most important and most fundamental prophecies leading up to Christ's coming.

    The part I really liked in this vid is at the end where the moderator spoke of one of the most essential themes of Isaiah and that is about PEACE and proclaiming peace, and also referenced the D&C 98 vs about the same. 👍 I would probably come back to church if we actually taught and discussed those most basic bedrock doctrines, which I dont hear discussed ever, but it is one of the key messages of Isaiah and all scripture. Maybe someday...

      Daniel, if I may.. This last general conference has a LOT in it regarding finding joy and peace through Christ. I think if you find a conference edition you'll be surprised at how often it's proclaimed and taught.

      Daniel, if you have found this video you ARE searching in the right direction. I would encourage you as Ju did, to listen to October 2020 General Conference. Especially in the midst of a very turbulent year, it was even more clear to me that the gospel is our source of peace. Don't give up. I believe you can find peace again in the gospel.

    Its interesting that the land of the covenant of Adam & the land of the people of Jared & the land of Children of Lehi, and now this covenant is renewed in the seed of Jacob or the seed there of Manasseh and in our case the seed of Ephraim. Restored by The prophet Joseph and affirmed by the title of Liberty again restored in this land otherwise known as the Constitution which God raised up so that the everlasting Gospel could once again be established in the promised land, a land of Liberty, a land set aside for the Worship of the Lord and the bringing forth of his word The Book of Mormon.
