Cleon Skousen wasn't an Apostle but was one of the most inspired and learned men who ever walked the earth. Elder Eyring's spirituality enhances his intelligence. This is one of the most sacred things to be shown on You Tube. I hope it's not wasted. I hope there are some who understand and feel what these men are talking about. The Church is true.
"I say to the whole world, receive the truth, no matter who presents it to you. Take up the Bible, compare the religion of the Latter-day Saints with it, and see if it will stand the test." 2nd LDS president, Brigham Young - Journal of Discourses, Vol. 16, p. 46
28...they loved Satan more than God.29 And Satan said unto? Cain: Swear unto me by thy throat,30 And Satan sware unto Cain that he would do according to his commands.
"Convince us of our errors of Doctrine, if we have any, by reason,by logical arguments, or by the Word of God and we will ever be grateful for the information and you will ever have the pleasing reflections that you have been instruments in the? hands of God of redeeming your fellow beings." LDS Apostle, Orson Pratt - The Seer, p. 15
This is wrong!

Everyday, I do, whether I repent of being thinking unkind thoughts of the one who cut me off in traffic, or not being patient when my toddler drew on the wall, or of being too lazy to finish the dishes. This is how we draw close to God. May you repent everyday, as well.
There are some who believe that the Holy Bible was also full of racism, have you checked? Or have you just singled out the Book of Mormon? Think about it.
THE MORMON GOD CURSES PEOPLE WITH BLACK SKIN & from the PRIESTHOOD FOR REBELLING this is not in THE HOLY BIBLE!
GENESIS 4:9-15 =God curses the LAND AGAINST CAIN & gives him a mark for protection it doesn't say what the MARK LOOKS LIKE he is not cursed from the priesthood & Cains SEED is not cursed!
HOLY BIBLE GENESIS 9:24-26=NOAH not GOD cursed CANAAN to be a servant to his Brothers JUST CANAAN not the whole SEED of CAIN to be SERVANTS & he was not CURSED with BLACK SKIN & from the PRIESTHOOD
So what? Did the "cursed" Lamanites stop being children of God because of their new skin color? If you really read the Book of Mormon, you would know better. The Lamanites continued to be precious to God and be blessed by Him and continued to be preserved by Him. Your anger and hatred of something you do not care to understand does not belong here.
Moroni writes for the benefit of the Lamanites—The Nephites who will not deny Christ are put to death...
1 Now I,Moroni...had supposed not to have written more,but I have not as yet perished; and I make not myself known to the Lamanites lest they should destroy me.
2...because of their hatred they put to death every Nephite that will not deny the Christ.
3 And I, Moroni, will not deny the Christ; wherefore,I wander whithersoever I can...
By that time, the "Nephites" and "Lamanites" have long since intermingled. There were as many white "Lamanites" by that time as there were white "Nephites." By that time, they were not distinguished by color, but by their beliefs.
You're attacking a windmill thinking it's a giant because it's huge and has moving arms. Nobody who reads the Book of Mormon comes away feeling superior to others. Those who read the Book of Mormon come away feeling greater love for everyone.
You're picking and choosing your favorite scriptures and burning the rest of the book. The entire book would tear down your argument. Read the book, beginning to end, so you can see that hatred began with the people, not with God; that God did not allow His people to hate those of another color but to love them, and that any difference that came up between the two groups was entirely because of the fact that one had the gospel of Jesus Christ and the other did not.
... You know, I'm tired. If you think that God making the different colors makes God racist, that's your business. We know that God did not create the hatred. I grew up in the LDS faith, and I know it. You trying to tell me this kind of falsehood is like Sharem trying to tell Jacob that Jesus Christ doesn't exist, though Jacob had personally seen Him and spoken to Him. And if you don't know who Sharem and Jacob are, you better read that book you love burning so much.

I am so grateful for the spirit you can feel as you listen to the truth in the words of these, the LORD's apostles.
Eyring is eye opening. An humble intellectual and very obedient to the commandments of God.
Such a great talk!
