Original Charge given to the 12 Apostles (LDS)

You have been indebted to other men, in the first instance, for evidence; on that you have acted; but it is necessary that you receive a testimony from heaven for yourselves; so that you can bear testimony to the truth of the Book of Mormon, and that you have seen the face of God. That is more than the testimony of an angel. When the proper time arrives, you shall be able to bear this testimony to the world. When you bear testimony that you have seen God, this testimony God will never suffer to fall, but will bear you out; although many will not give heed, yet others will. You will therefore see the necessity of getting this testimony from heaven.

Never cease striving until you have seen God face to face. Strengthen your faith; cast off you doubts, your sins, and all your unbelief; and nothing can prevent you from coming to God. Your ordination is not full and complete till God has laid His hand upon you. We require as much to qualify us as did those who have gone before us; God is the same. If the Savior in former days laid His hands upon His disciples, why not in latter days?

    Jordan, Comrade!

    I don’t know when the new audio format was introduced, but you need to get your previous engineer back. I’m assuming that the new one is a deaf chimpanzee…who works for cheap!

    Maximum stereo panning is generally not ideal for a podcast like this…way too much separation. Mono (or only a small amount of panning) would be much preferred by people who have either one or two ears.

    I’ll await the mono version to resume my listening.

    Episode #207, unofficial theme song: The Offspring – “Pretty Fly (for a White Guy)”

    P.S. Theme song runners up included All Time Low’s “Lost in Stereo” and Stereo MC’s “Connected,” (as well as songs by Cake, Local H, The Dead Milkmen, and Weezer that related to the podcast’s themes).

    Companies may be backing away from DEI, but they were dumb enough to go for it, they are surely soon to do something else, like ESG, so look for many of these big corps to jump on that.

    There was a leaked video on YouTube of President Oaks and he was directly asked the question about any current apostles (I believe this was around 2016) seeing Jesus or any heavenly beingpersonally and I believe his reply was he can’t think of any of the living at the time Apostles who had.

    Jefferson most likely did not have a child with a slave. All the DNA test showed was that some male related to Thomas Jefferson in the last 150 years had a child with someone related to the woman slave.

    Overall this was a fun and interesting conversation to listen to thank you guys.
