While Becoming Rampant, BYU Has Some Bad Apples I was off script when I said there weren't thousands affected by this. There are! I receive dozens of contacts from students and faculty members. This includes administration and support staff. Also from heartbroken parents who do not recognize their kids.  Something is in the air in Provo and it is obvious we are not in Kansas anymore. But just as t...

Tabernacle and Atonement These chapters from Exodus 35-Leviticus 19, are some of the best for Temple Imagery. If you put these chapters through the Temple Imagery Interpreter and think about the specifics of your temple experience, you will have several "aha" moments. The temple is here. Everywhere! As Moses receives the details of how to construct the Tabernacle and its materials from the Lord in...

Elon Musk and Twitter Under The Banner Of Heaven Pride Robe at BYU Postmodernism and The Book of Mormon   Website - https://www.cwicmedia.com  

Absurdly Negative Cliche of Latter-day Saint Life I could barely get through the first two episodes of the Under the Banner of Heaven series. It was brutal. An incessant onslaught of stereotypical Mormon life complete with every meme you can think of. The characters talk as if they are 19th-century Amish, the Church history is all negative, and the window on "Mormon" life is a joke. Also, the reve...

BYU Graduate Receives Diploma Then Opens Her Robe To Show Pride Flag Was Elder Holland Prophetic in his BYU talk last summer? "Commandeering the graduation". Is protesting the LGBTQ policies at BYU protesting the doctrine of the Church? What does the Pride Flag mean to you? Website - https://www.cwicmedia.com  

NAACP /Church Agreement Based On Self-Reliance - Changes Already at Twitter  According to Critical Race Theory and Whiteness Studies, self-reliance is "whiteness". However, this is exactly what the bulk of the NAACP/Church financial agreement is about. The Church is "bucking the system." Has Twitter's algorithm already been changed since the Elon Musk announcement? Left-leaning accounts are losing...

Elon Musk Buys Twitter - Now What? Elon Musk will bring Twittter private giving him more control over the changes he wants to implement. This could have major effects on other social media platforms. Will Elon Musk discuss the current algorithm that shadowbans many accounts? He is planning on making the new algorithm open to the public to create trust. What does this mean for free speech in the di...

The Ascension of Sinai is the Ascension of the Temple The two sets of tablets are the Higher and the Lower Laws. The Children of Israel reject the opportunity to "see the face of God" which happens at the veil. They reject the Higher Law, the Melchizedek Law. Could the Golden Calf be a representation of Jehovah made into the image of the Children of Israel? Do we make God into our own image?   Web...

"Lean not unto thine own understanding" Postmodernism in light of Proverbs 3:5 - Postmodernism seeks to elevate your "lived experience" above an objective truth such as the gospel. Postmodernism is primarily responsible for the idea of a "social construct." I explain how postmodernism and its Deconstruction will attack the scriptures with the example of Nephi's "liken all scripture unto us." This...

Social Media is Disintegrating Society Author and social phycologist Jonathan Haidt recently wrote an article for the Atlantic. It is a summary of what he has been speaking and writing about for the last 10 years. Like the aftermath of the Tower of Babel, Social Media is pulling us apart and we are speaking our own languages. From simple adjustments such as "share", "retweet", and "like" buttons,...

Exodus chapter 18 is not primarily about delegation. It is about the priesthood. It is parallel to Abraham 3. As the stage gets set for the Sinai experience, we see the formation of a temple template through the Interpreter of Temple Imagery and Drama. "Bounds" are set on Sinai, and the Children of Israel become afraid of being "proven".   Website - https://www.cwicmedia.com

Elder Christofferson guides us through the noise of adversity to the signal of our relationship with Christ and teaches us not to be victims. Using the examples of Job, Abraham, Joseph of Egypt, and Joseph Smith as they use their adversity to strengthen their relationship with the Lord. He quotes the Lord, "Wilt thou condemn me, that thou mayest be righteous?" When certain adversity strikes we hav...

The West, through nefarious ideologies of identity, is systematically being broken down by society, family, and the individual. We live in a world imagined and framed by Marcuse and Foucault. The Brethren seem to counter this with their placement of "Child of God" as the primary identity of each of us. This Eternal Identity is used in conjunction with and superior to other identities such as race...

Easter Week Should Be Seen as a Royal Procession, Coronation, and Temple Experience The last week of Jesus' mortal life takes on more meaning when we see it through the lens of ancient rituals and the temple. This week is Royal Procession and Coronation, something the people were very familiar with. It also follows the holiest day and ordinance of The Day of Atonement. This week is also better und...

New Video Emerges of Utah Governer Cox Giving Kids His Preferred Pronouns A video has surfaced showing Utah Governor Cox giving his preferred pronouns to kids. Who helped fund Governor Cox's campaign and why does it explain his decisions on Utah education? The National Education Association is the largest labor union in the country. They have an explicit Critical Race Theory curriculum agenda. Tha...

The Lord Intervenes In Our Lives The Lord tells Moses and the Children of Israel to "camp by the sea." The Children of Israel are then concerned for their lives with nowhere to run from the Egyptians. The Lord then intervenes and has His prophet "divide the sea." The Lord works in the same manner in our own lives. The Children of Israel "murmur" again and again regardless of knowing that the Lord...

Elder Renlund Offers Clarity on the Doctrine of Heavenly Mother Elder Renlund opens by confirming that we have a Heavenly Mother. That is the doctrine. But then shows how "speculation" on that doctrine can take us too far as it has for several. Is this what has happened previously in gospel history? Is this a repeating pattern? Is it impossible for us in mortality to worship a Heavenly Mother? We...

A BYU professor made a false and malicious accusation online in regards to a voicemail he received from a deep-voiced man. He more than alludes that this was Greg Matsen of Cwic Media, a "YouTuber" that had "harassed" his colleagues. The voicemail has been heard by over 40,000 people. The professor knew exactly what he was doing. We play the voicemail in this episode. This is the same professor wh...

The Rod Represents The Priesthood The rod that turned to a serpent on the Mountain acts as a symbol of the true priesthood. The demonstration in front of Pharaoh with the serpents is yet another display of the true priesthood vs the imitation priesthood of the world. This theme is carried through the plagues. The "magicians" (Egyptian priests) cannot reverse the plagues with their priesthood. The...

In the Senate hearing for SCOTUS, Ketanji Brown Jackson is questioned by Senator Ted Cruz. They discuss Critical Race Theory in schools, in law, and in her decisions as a judge. This is a great "lab" to dissect this topic on this American stage.    Website - https://www.cwicmedia.com
