LDS Pride Month, Charlie Bird, & Confusion 15.06.2023

Every Pride Month, the ideology of identitarianism encroaches further into Latter-day Saint culture. Charlie Bird's decision to marry his boyfriend brings many of the problems and confusion on this topic into focus. Pride Month lifts lesser identities above being a Child of God. The Brethren have given some clear guidance on the conflict between the gospel and these pernicious ideologies, such as...

Wokeness, Victimhood, and Charity With Virgins, Talents, and Goats 02.06.2023

If Jesus spoke of our time, would he have spoken of the ideologies and philosophies such as wokeness and victimhood in our day? Those things that contradict the Gospel of Jesus Christ? The Parables of the Ten Virgins, the Talents, and the Sheep and Goats from Matthew 25 are better understood by including the preceding chapter, Matthew 24. Matthew 24 is the chapter used for Joseph Smith - Matthew i...

We discuss what he has experienced in the temples of Egypt, how our own temple experience is found there, plus some inside baseball on the mummies, the papyri, and the Book of Abraham.

7 Threats In Our Times - Threat 7 - The Attack Upon the Biblical Family 09.05.2023

"Of all the social institutions designed by God, I suppose none is under greater attack than the family." "If you pierce the family, you pierce its society." "When Marx and Engels declared "Abolish the family!" their worldview reflected the heart of Satan's strategy to destroy relationships because that attacks the very heart of the nature of God. This includes the destruction of every other socia...

7 Threats Of Our Times - Threat 6 - Addicted and Soft, Dependent and Lost - Dr. Del Tackett 03.05.2023

Has the underbelly of society been weakened? Have we been weened onto addiction and dependence? Have we lost our way? Teenagers spend an average of 9 hours/day with their phones and entertainment, adults, 6 hours. Dividing society into victim and oppressor (Critical Theory) means most people will make a decision on which group they want to participate in and almost all will pick being a victim. Me...

The 7 Threats Of Our Time - Threat #5 - Rise Of A Demonic Worldview and The National Rift 26.04.2023

Most of the newer ideologies today are simply repackaged Marxism. Many don't want to hear that. Some will say it is conspiratorial, others that it is not true. But anyone who really studies these secular "philosophies of men" or even listens to what the movers and shakers of these ideologies actually say, cannot walk away without an understanding that this is exactly what it is. As these Marxian,...

LDS Parents Losing Daughter To Insane Gender Ideology 24.04.2023

Gender Clinics in the US have grown from 1 in 2007 to well over 300 today. In 2018 the UK reported that adolescent girls seeking gender treatment had increased by 4,400% over the previous decade. The Ideology behind this virus is Queer Theory. Its advocates do all they can to spread this contagion. I get messages from a number of parents who are or who have gone through this exact experience. It i...

7 Threats in Our Times - Threat 4 - The Consolidation Of Massive Earthly Power - Del Tackett 20.04.2023

"One of the most fascinating aspects of God's nature is that He delegates authority and power." God's truth is based on order and hierarchy. We receive God's word but then are charged with sharing that word.  One way of going against God's order is to consolidate power to yourself. This is antithetical to God's modus operandi. This consolidation of power also creates dependents, which destroys inc...

7 Threats in Our Times - Threat 3 - The Loss of the Noble Male and the Rise of Malevolent Compassion 18.04.2023

What has happenned to the men (Noble Male) in the West? What happens when compassion is "untethered?" Culture cannot function properly without the balance of men and women. The Noble Male is driven by two engines, as on a train. The first engine is truth, righteousness and wisdom; the second is grace and compassion. He is primarily driven by a zeal for truth and righteousness, but it is tethered b...

7 Threats in Our Times - Threat 2- "Homo Deus and Meo Christianity" -Del Tackett 17.04.2023

"One of the first things that happens when a culture loses the larger story of God is that there is only one story left—mine." A loss of our identity as Children of God, means that other identities rise in society's values. We become more prideful. Instead of us being in God's image, we make God in our image.

The Dangers of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion - Erec Smith 17.04.2023

I have been following Erec Smith for at least the last couple of years. Erec resigned as a 'Diversity Officer" once he saw the dangers of how this industry is framing the work and the vocabulary. He gives us some inside baseball on DEI and its goals. DEI makes a lot of sense "if your goal is social transformation . . revolutionizing society, getting rid of powers that be and establishing something...

Cancelling David O McKay At BYU Hawaii 13.04.2023

The famous David O. McKay mural is apparently on the chopping block. But suspect reasons for its destruction are plenty. Many on and off campus believe the move is political. This is an intriguing and meaningful story. No room has been allowed for donors who want to preserve the mural which could be removed as soon as June. The mural is an iconic tie to the legacy and heritage of Polynesian member...

The Covenant Path, Different Voices, LGBTQ Within The LDS Church 27.03.2023

This is a panel of three gay/same-sex attraction men who are following the covenant path and are not happy with alternative voices to that path. Cwic Show has always tried to elevate these voices.
