Show Notes

Guest co-host Christopher Hurtado joins Ben in a discussion of D&C Sections 49 and 50. Ben and Christopher discuss how our view of the Doctrine and Covenants as scripture can be informed by historical context and why it is helpful to do so. Leman Copley left the “United Society of Believers in Christ’s Second Appearing”, otherwise known as the Shakers, to join with the Saints. What was it about the beliefs of the Shakers that warranted a special revelation? What is the role of marriage in our faith and how does our conception of Adam and Eve inform our overall view of our relationship with God? Christopher comments on the eating of meat and how we might view equality as God intends us to. We can look to other religious traditions for truth. How might new “scripture” come about and how can we be open to receive it? The preaching of the gospel can only be done when accompanied by the Spirit of Truth, otherwise it is not of God.
