I hope you had a blessed Resurrection Day! In honor of our Lord’s resurrection, let’s do a deep dive into some Old Testament Scriptures that I believe prophesied about the resurrection of Jesus. On the road to Emmaus, Jesus criticized people for not believing that the Scriptures prophesied about His own sufferings and glory that would follow. Jesus used the Scriptures to explain this to them. Could these have been some of the passages Jesus used?

This episode is part 12 in a series going through the story of the Book of Mormon. In Jacob chapter 6, Jacob uses the allegory of the vineyard from the prophet Zenos mentioned in the previous chapter to call the people of Nephi to reflect and repent. Of course, I point out where I see statements that are borrowed from the Bible. In Jacob chapter 7, Jacob encounters a heretic named Sherem who teaches that no “Christ” will come. After Jacob rebukes him, God strikes Sherem with a fatal illness. Sherem renounces what he taught before. We are left unclear if this was a deathbed conversion or just a heretic fearing judgment from God. I discuss a little about the

This episode is part 11 in a series going through the story of the Book of Mormon. In Jacob chapter 5, Jacob relays the “mystery” he just mentioned. It’s something the Nephites as children of Israel should have read or heard. A prophet named Zenos wrote an allegory of Israel as an olive tree. This allegory clearly borrows from several passages of the Bible, but adds far more detail. Did you know that an ancient prophet in Israel wrote a story depicting how the church would have a lot of denominations bearing wild fruit? Did you know his story also described the origin and fate of the Book of Mormon’s Lamanite and Nephite peoples? Amazing prophecy! Or, perhaps, it was

This episode is part 10 in a series going through the story of the Book of Mormon. In Jacob chapter 3, Jacob continues his sermon against the people of Nephi for their pride, greed, and polygamy. I discuss a little about the polygamy issue I raised in the last part. Jacob also warns the Nephites that, if they don’t repent, they could end up with darker skin than the Lamanites. Apparently, in the ancient Americas, sin affects skin. And darker skin is a curse from God. Jacob chapter 4 talks about how the brass plates record many clear prophecies about Jesus: the atonement, that He is the “only begotten Son” and that Abraham and Isaac are a picture of God

This episode is kind of a break from the series through the Book of Mormon. 1 Corinthians 15:29 is a verse that has confounded many Christians and spawned up to 30 possible interpretations. It is the only verse that mentions people being “baptized for the dead.” This episode will explain five interpretations for “baptized for the dead”: submitting to the “baptism” of suffering and death itself for Jesus a ritual of being baptized over/on behalf of a dead body or as a proxy for a dead person being baptized for one’s own dead body that will never be resurrected being baptized into the church to replace saints who have died being baptized in the name of Christ who is still

This episode is part 9 in a series going through the story of the Book of Mormon. The book of Jacob continues from where 2 Nephi finished. Nephi passes away and his people get a second king. However, this king seems more like Rehoboam after Solomon. The people of Nephi backslide in wealth and pride. Worst of all many men start taking multiple wives and concubines. Of course, we had to compare this with Doctrine and Covenants section 132! Does Jacob 2:24 contradict D&C 132:38?

This episode is part 8 in a series going through the story of the Book of Mormon. In 2 Nephi chapters 30-33, the elder Nephi talks about “the doctrine of Christ.” Over 500 years before the event happened Nephi describes a prophet baptizing Jesus and the Holy Ghost descending like a dove. He also mentions “entering the straight gate” and the “narrow way” before Jesus said these things. To enter the straight gate means to repent and be baptized and receive the gift of the Holy Ghost and possibly speak with “angelic tongues.” The narrow way is the same as “enduring to the end” to be saved. The Book of Mormon exhorts its readers many times about needing to “endure

This episode is part 7 in a series going through the story of the Book of Mormon. 2 Nephi chapters 28-29 continue Nephi’s prophecies. These two chapters of the Book of Mormon lash out at what it deems false churches who oppress people and that the clergy teach their own wisdom rather than what comes from the Holy Ghost. While there can be much truth to what is said there, the Book of Mormon’s antidote leaves much to be desired. 2 Nephi chapter 29 especially mocks later Gentile Christians who claim the Bible is the final Word of God. As God argues to us, according to the Book of Mormon, that we should expect lots more Scripture to come, we
