Wonderful video series, but I have one question. What happened to part 4, the one about baptisms for the dead? When I follow the link in the post it returns me to whichever video I was watching with the message, "The video you have requested is not available."

I think it is great that these videos are out there to help clear up the confusion about the purpose of our temples. Good job.

It should work now. Occasionally Youtube has a little hang-up like that, but it works for me.

[sweetelesue]

riches and opulence = holiness?

[lds9999]

Of course not. If that's what you thought after watching the video, you unfortunately missed the primary message.

I'd encourage you to watch it again!

In the new branch, President Byers has already seen the potential for growth. "I have seen members share their heart-felt testimonies of the Savior and the gospel. I know that this branch is necessary for those members to grow and flourish in the gospel and to not hold themselves back for the sake of a language barrier."

Darn it, GOD IS GOOD!

Yes, the Lord sent prophets from Adam until Christ. Some of them He even refers to in the NT, even though we have no record of them in our much-rewritten OT. I expect it was the same for the 400 years preceding Christ's. As for the last, I am not aware of "so many changes" to The Book of Mormon, only minor revisions to correct errors introduced during publishing, which back then was extremely labor-intensive, hand-setting each letter, space, and punctuation mark, and so easily subject to error.

It isn't a Catholic Priest. I believe he is Episcopal/Anglican since he is wearing burgundy

"The Lord sent prophets from Adam until Christ." Really? You are mistaken. If you look back at the account of descendants from Adam to Noah there aren't any prophets mentioned. That was 1056 years. Oh and don't forget the time between the O.T. and N.T. there were no prophets and that was some 400 years. God has not always had prophets on the earth. When He did, they were ALWAYS RIGHT in what they spoke from God. No need for changes or revisions. Can someone tell me why so many changes to BOM?

The LDS temples aren't "opulent" by any means. Architecturally they are pleasing to the eye as you would expect such structures to be. Symbolically they remind us to reach higher ground. The interior of these temples are hardly a reminder of earthly wealth. They are thought provoking, peaceful, and, yes, beautiful tributes to heavenly ideals.

The journey before these pioneers was a 17-mile-trek, symbolizing the one their fellow Mormons and ancestors made nearly 170 years ago.

It is certainly atypical, said Amelia Banks, of Brookline. But it is a really good way to see what they went through and put us in their shoes.
