And it makes sense to me. I have shown this to many other LDS people and I get the impression that they want to believe the crazy information about the Adam-God theory; that they did not want it to make sense. Just a feeling I got. <br /><br />Anyway, for those who are really interested, please read the article. <br /><br />JRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12745174941243069168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5948352943362975805.post-75308257071228783192018-07-05T08:40:39.771-07:002018-07-05T08:40:39.771-07:00I know this is off the topic of the BOM geography ...I know this is off the topic of the BOM geography and so I’ll be brief. I’ve seen this discussion many times before about the so-called Adam-God doctrine. Many in the Church both scholars and theologians have tried to explain it without much success. Brigham told us that Joseph taught him this doctrine. It is a true doctrine therefore, but it has not been explained very well because neither Brigham nor Joseph had the scientific background to understand it. Now we do. It is over 175 years since this doctrine was revealed to Brigham from Joseph.<br /><br />The hint is given in the creation of Eve. God took a rib from Adam to create Eve. That should be your clue as to what the Lord is doing. God cloned Eve from the body of Adam. I’m sure I don’t need to go into a detailed discussion of cloning and why a rib was used. The same thing happened with Adam. The body and spirit of Adam was cloned from God. That is how Adam is our Father. He is an exact copy of God the Father. And in that regard we all descend from God. So, this doctrine should be clear as to what Brigham was trying to tell us but could not because the science had not been invented. It’s very simply to understand and Brigham nor Joseph made a mistake nor misspoke. I’m sure I don’t need to go any further than this. <br />iterryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14836783863542965577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5948352943362975805.post-16781579980103969472018-07-04T21:09:53.147-07:002018-07-04T21:09:53.147-07:00I agree. Very good Del.
When I read President Yo...I agree. Very good Del.<br /><br />When I read President Young's Adam-God teachings, I realize that he was teaching that Adam was a joint heir with the Savior of a previous earth, and that Savior is the Jehovah of the creation of this earth. The resurrected Jehovah and resurrected Michael/Adam came down and created it for Adam's spirit children. President Young repeatedly said he got this doctrine from Joseph. So his teachings are just a further understanding of the New Testament "joint heirs with Christ" doctrine.<br /><br />Jesus is the Jehovah of THIS earth, and Abraham and others will be joint heirs with him. President Young clearly taught that every earth has its own Savior. That is in harmony with Moses 1:34 which teaches that every earth has its own Adam. So the term Jehovah does not just apply to one being, but to a lineage of Saviors of worlds.<br /><br />However, I could never completely reconcile other things about it that President Young taught with the scriptures. Even if he got it from Joseph, that does not mean he got it all correctly. <br /><br />Yet I am not convinced that Elder McConkie is the one to decide what the truth is. The matter should just be left alone and not fully judged until the church has further revelation on the matter. erichardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12279217537472159142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5948352943362975805.post-19073061764144702182018-07-04T20:33:58.471-07:002018-07-04T20:33:58.471-07:00thanks very much this was powerfulthanks very much this was powerfulcharlesjoelummus@gmail.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12671953083491002193noreply@blogger.com
