Dear Readers of this Blog, please note that Google advertisements may appear in this blog post. They were not solicited by me and I do not profit from them. I did request particularly that Google not place them within scriptures which I often use in my blog posts. It appears they have honored that request of mine. Thank you Google!

I discovered an add that was placed in a scripture I used in a previous blog. I respectfully withdraw my previous "Thank you."

TODAY'S THEME



Jesus the Christ -by Del Parson

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints with the assistance of You Tube have very recently provided a series of videos  filmed at that Church's Goshen, Utah Filming Site in Utah County not far South from the Salt Lake Valley which has been very skillfully and accurately transformed by skilled craftsmen to resemble the Holy Land in very close detail. Also, very skilled directors and actors were called upon to portray those involved in the biblical history portrayed.

I have chosen several of these very accurate portayals of scenes from the life of our Savior Jesus Christ to assist you in learning from Him regarding Matters of  His Gospel and in perhaps feeling closer to Him emotionally and spiritually. These video scenes  which occurred in the Holy Land were based upon that which is recorded in the New Testament.

I look forward to the day when there will be video depictions of the Savior teaching the Nephites in the areas of America where those events actually took place. There is not yet a consensus of opinion within the Church as to where in the Americas those events actually took place, therefore filming can not yet take place at replicas of those actual geographical sites as has been done in Goshen, Utah (U.S.A.) in the portayal of sites in Ancient Palestine. However, I believe that time will come, possibly and hopefully, during my lifetime!

At Easter time this year I provided you with other videos filmed in at the aforementioned site Goshen, Utah, but those shown then will not be shown again in this blog post.


Jesus Teaches Nicodemus About Being Born Again


Jesus is Baptized by John


Jesus Turns Water Into Wine!


Here is a Painting by an LDS Artist Showing a Scene Which Took Place in A.D. 34 somewhere in Ancient America. Below that painting, you will read marvellous and inspiring words from the Book of Mormon which our Resurrected Lord, Jesus Christ spoke to those Nephites whose ancestor, Lehi, had led his family along with others through God's guidance from Jerusalem to Eastern Arabia and across the largest ocean in the world to somewhere on the coast of ancient America in about 600 B.C..

CHRIST AND THE BOOK OF MORMON CHILDREN -BY DEL PARSON 

The Book of Mormon, Another Testament of Jesus Christ, 3 Nephi, Chapter 17: Verse 11: And it came to pass that he commanded that their little children should be brought. 
12  So they brought their little children and set them down upon the ground round about him, and Jesus stood in the midst; and the multitude gave way till they had all been brought unto him. 
13  And it came to pass that when they had all been brought, and Jesus stood in the midst, he commanded the multitude that they should kneel down upon the ground. 
14  And it came to pass that when they had knelt upon the ground, Jesus groaned within himself, and said: Father, I am troubled because of the wickedness of the people of the house of Israel. 
15  And when he had said these words, he himself also knelt upon the earth; and behold he prayed unto the Father, and the things which he prayed cannot be written, and the multitude did bear record who heard him. 
16  And after this manner do they bear record: The eye hath never seen, neither hath the ear heard, before, so great and marvelous things as we saw and heard Jesus speak unto the Father; 
17  And no tongue can speak, neither can there be written by any man, neither can the hearts of men conceive so great and marvelous things as we both saw and heard Jesus speak; and no one can conceive of the joy which filled our souls at the time we heard him pray for us unto the Father. 
18  And it came to pass that when Jesus had made an end of praying unto the Father, he arose; but so great was the joy of the multitude that they were overcome. 
19  And it came to pass that Jesus spake unto them, and bade them arise. 
20  And they arose from the earth, and he said unto them: Blessed are ye because of your faith.  And now behold, my joy is full. 
21  And when he had said these words, he wept, and the multitude bare record of it, and he took their little children, one by one, and blessed them, and prayed unto the Father for them. 
22  And when he had done this he wept again; 
23  And he spake unto the multitude, and said unto them: Behold your little ones. 
24  And as they looked to behold they cast their eyes towards heaven, and they saw the heavens open, and they saw angels descending out of heaven as it were in the midst of fire; and they came down and encircled those little ones about, and they were encircled about with fire; and the angels did minister unto them. 
25  And the multitude did see and hear and bear record; and they know that their record is true for they all of them did see and hear, every man for himself; and they were in number about two thousand and five hundred souls; and they did consist of men, women, and children. (emphasis added by Neil Birch)
Inasmuch as you have had the opportunity of reviewing the words of our Lord Jesus Christ from both the New Testament and the Book of Mormon, Another Testament of Jesus Christ in this blog post of mine, you may have compared what was said by our Savior from each of these sacred scriptures.

It is very interesting to me personally to contrast the words spoken by our Savior, Jesus Christ both before and after the climax of His Holy Mission and Life, which came about through His Atonement, Crucifixion and Resurrection. All that He spoke, both before and after His resurrection are equally true, but when speaking after those just mentioned fulfilling experiences, He had become One with His (and our) Heavenly Father. His words spoken to the Nephites in Ancient America as recorded in the Book of Mormon particularly illustrate that sacred truth.

For those of you who desire to research this subject further I refer you to my Blog Post 44m. I think you will find reading a certain part of that post particularly applicable! To get to the heart of this matter quickly after clicking on the Internet link found just beneath this and the following paragraph, you should scroll down in my Post 44m to where I suggest you begin your reading! Begin right at the first of the three paragraphs preceding the John Scott painting showing our Savior, Jesus Christ teaching the Nephite people with the temple in the Land Bountiful seen in the background along with other buildings which were saved from the great destruction which the Resurrected Lord and Savior Jesus had personally caused to take place throughout their land.

I believe it will be most beneficial if you would read from where I suggested you begin in Post 44m and from there on to the regular end of that post. If you do so, that which you will have read will help you more fully realize the great surge forward in His Godly abilities that had become a part of our Savior since His atonement, death by crucifixion and His resurrection.

Neil Birch's Blog Post 44m

After viewing and studying that to which I referred you to in my Post 44m and recalling that which you experienced in today's main post (44x) I think any of you who thought they were convinced that Joseph Smith and his young frontiersmen associates made up and wrote the Book of Mormon, will surely no longer have any logical reasons for believing such!
