Episode notes

The JST does this that it actually includes the last verse of Matthew 23, remembering that our chapter and verses are recent compared to the verse. And so here Jesus introduces this notion that he's coming, but also he's coming again. This is a hugely shocking statement that Jesus has made here. We have to take each JST change and say, oh, what is this doing? How is this working?

How do we prepare to receive the Savior? Dr. Avram Shannon examines Joseph Smith–Matthew, the signs of Jesus’s Second Coming, and the power of faith.
