Episode notes
God's Compassion Restored
- Moses 7 restores a compassionate Old Testament God who weeps for His children and is merciful as well as just.
- Mike Day argues this restoration counters the edited, distant portrayal of God in later scripture traditions.
Why God Weeps
- God weeps because He feels compassion for their misery, not merely anger at sin.
- Enoch's question and the Lord's answer teach that justice and mercy together explain divine sorrow.
Hope After Death
- Even the dead have hope because Christ pled before the Father and suffered for their repentance.
- Bryce Dunford and Mike cite D&C 19 and 138 to affirm an exit from spirit prison.
