The Two Births The Meaning Of The Tree of Life
The angelic hosts in 1 Nephi 11, tell Nephi of two births. Both are acts of "condescension." This is the meaning of the Tree of Life. God condescended to be in mortality, condescended into the waters of baptism, and condescended below all of us in Gethsemane and on the Cross. Condescension IS the Love of God. Those that condescend and offer the Pure Love of Christ, will then be exalted by God. The Great and Spacious Building is on the opposite side of the gulf in Lehi's Dream. It is juxtaposed to the Tree of Life and therefore represents pride, or "lifting oneself up" only to fall. "Son of God" is not so much a description but rather a title. It is used in relation to the condescension of God. Website - www.cwicmedia.com

LDS Temple Ceremony Found In Egyptian Temples and The Gospel On The Nile
Gospel On The Nile Cruise - https://www.cwicmedia.com/gospel-on-the-nile Bruce Porter is an expert on the Latter-day Saint temple ceremony found within the long-standing Egyptian temples. The Egyptian temples are built after a higher order than the temples in Jerusalem. They are of a Melchizedek Order, mimicking the order of the patriarchs. Ye we typically use the Temple of Solomon as the example for today's Latter-day Saint Temples. Abraham, Moses, and Joseph all spent their time in Memphis. "The prison of Joseph has been found in Memphis." "Egypt was the religious capital of the Middle East." 'The Book of Abraham is a record of Abraham's endowment." The facsimiles in the Book of Abraham are not translations but "Representations." Website - www.cwicmedia.com

Tad Callister And The Founding Of America
Why are we FLOUNDERING on the FOUNDING of America? How do "Natural Rights" shape the founding of America? Unalienable Rights removes the state as our primary ruler and replaces it with God. This lifts our relationship as creations of God above our relationship of citizen and state. The reframing of the constitution, founding, and principles of America. How does an increasingly secular America survive? Website - www.cwicmedia.com

Fatherlessness Keeps Increasing - What Are The Consequences?
As single-mother homes continue to increase, the consequences for children become more apparent in our society. Why would a culture continue its pressure on removing dads from families when the results are disastrous for the next generation? Dr. Tim Rarick talks about the consequences of fatherlessness, especially with girls, including early onset puberty, promiscuity, and marital issues. It also plays a strong role in the increase in the younger generations' increase in mental health issues. Website - www.cwicmedia.com

Does Evolution Manifest Gospel Principles?
In his book Purpose: What Evolution and Human Nature Imply About the Meaning of Our Existence, Dr. Samuel Wilkinson, an Associate Professor of Psychiatry at Yale University, says that evolution works to fulfill God's purposes. It produces a system for the "natural man" and for altruism. We discuss the hot points between evolution and religion as well as the cooperation between the two. How does randomness play into the plan, if at all? If Free Will (Agency) is real, where does it come from? I want to thank Jacob Hansen at Thoughtful Faith for helping me set this up.

Elder Kearon In His Own Words
When Elder Kearon was called as an apostle, there was a contingent of members who were happy due to his focus on grace. Many hailed his recent General Conference talk as "a radical new repositioning of grace" and, unfortunately, took a cafeteria approach to the talk, only seeing one soothing side. But his fantastic talk was complete in its doctrine. This "grace movement" has its own geist. And many are caught up in it. It elevates the comfort, feel-good therapeutic gospel while ignoring the doctrine of Exaltation. That doctrine is ultimately the Doctrine of Christ. Website - www.cwicmedia.com

The Church In Ghana, Africa - Francis Sombato
Francis Sombato is a member of the Church in Ghana, Africa. He gives a glimpse of what it is like to be a member of the Church there. They usually walk and hour and a half to church on Sundays unless they have enough money to get a cab that week. There is so much growth in Ghana and you can see why with individuals like Francis.
