W. Cleon Skousen, Henry B. Eyring Witness Experiences of God Inspired Unity

W. Cleon Skousen Explains how the US Founders argued over issues, but then united on most issues, being guided and divinely inspired of God. He tells of witnessing this same thing first hand.

Henry B. Eyring explains the same process, modern prophets of God working and finding agreement and unity, concensus.

[80sJerm]

All lovers of truth seek The Prince of Peace, Lord of Lords, Savior, and Redeemer of the world, Jesus Christ, our Mediator, Creator, our Advocate with the Father, the Great Exemplar, who showed us THE WAY, by being THE WAY!!!!!!! God bless our leaders to continue to follow the promptings of the Holy Ghost as they lead His holy work on this earth. Building up the kingdom of God on the earth must be done in unity & all of us have different experiences, perspectives, knowledge, convictions, etc.

Skousen and Eyring give such great insight into how the Lord gives his stamp of approval onto the doings of men! Beautiful description on how unity occurs in decision making in the counsels of the Church! This footage is a treasure of knowledge!

@Porojukaha: “…but lets remember that at that time the other Gods demanded the bloody sacrifice of women and children.”

About that: read Judges Chapter 11 — the WHOLE CHAPTER, so no claiming “out of context.”

Just so you know what you’re up against: I know the Bible VERY well. I’ve read it all the way through, from Genesis 1:1 through Revelation 22:21, inclusive, multiple times in several versions, and have the majority of the KJV memorized.

@Porojukaha, (cont.) Besides, my statement was that Freedom of Religion was anti-BIBLICAL, NOT that it was anti-NEW TESTAMENT. The Old Testament remains the CONSIDERABLE MAJORITY of the Holy Bible, thus anything and everything in it is BIBLICAL. That’s what the word means. Deal with it.

Pretty much the ENTIRE Old Testament was one big “Thou Shalt NOT Have Freedom of Religion”! It’s even the First Commandment of the list commonly (but erroneously) accepted as the Ten Commandments!

@Porojukaha: “Freedom of religion is not anti biblical.”

Oh, yes it is. And how!

“The idea that all the people who worship those various religions will all recieve the same degree of salvation IS antibiblical.”

Not talking about salvation. The subject is government.

“We cant look at mosaic law and say that that is bibical law because its not anymore. Christ gave us a NEW law.…”

That’s not what HE said. Matthew 5:17–20, et al. Have Heaven and Earth passed yet? No? Then it still applies.

@Porojukaha, (cont.) Namely, the First Amendment expressly forbids the Federal Government (and the Fourteenth later extended this prohibition to the States) from showing ANY FORM of favoritism for or against ANY religions.

Jefferson assured the Danbury Baptists that this erected a WALL of Separation. Not “door” nor “gate.” WALL. He chose his words VERY carefully. Show me a WALL existing in the Founders’ day that blocks passage in only ONE direction while freely allowing it in the other.

@Porojukaha: “What it actually says in the constitution is that the government cannot make one state religion and make all the others illegal. like England did with the Church of England”

No, that’s not true. It says that Congress shall make NO law RESPECTING an establishment of faith, NOR prohibiting the free exercise thereof.

What did “respecting” mean? About what it meant in King James English, as per “God is no RESPECTER of persons.” It means showing FAVORITISM to some over others.

@Porojukaha, (cont.)

July and August are named for the first two Roman Emperors, considered demigods in human form: Julius and Augustus Cæsar, respectively. September through December are merely named for the numbers of the months that they originally were: seventh through tenth (e.g. septagon, octagon, nonagon, decagon).

So, if “A.D.” (and B.C.) are indications of Christian influence, then the weekdays and month names mean a FAR BIGGER influence by the Norse and Græco-Roman PAGAN gods!

[COMALiteJ]

@Porojukaha, (cont.) Answer: from PAGAN gods! Even the day that most Christians worship on, SUNday, is the Day of the SUN God! Monday is the Day of the MOON God. Trewes’s Day (a Norse god)! Woden’s (aka Odin, Wotan, etc.) Day. Thor’s Day. Frigg’s Day (Frigg or Frigga was Woden/Odin/Wotan’s wife). And a Roman god: Saturn’s Day.

January = the two-headed Roman god Janus. February = a Roman pagan ritual, Februa. March = Mars. April = Aphrodite. May = Maia. June = Juno (Roman version of Hera).

@Porojukaha, (cont.) Now some may claim that the use of A.D. in and of itself shows heavy Christian influence in society at the time. I do not deny that, but that’s a far cry from saying that the USA was intended by the Founders to be an explicitly and specifically Christian nation, which it was most definitely NOT.

Also, if we use that logic to apply to “A.D.” then it should apply to the rest of the calendar as well. Where do the names of the days of the week and many of the months come from?
