  1. Wooo here we go, will something dramatic happen in the next month, I'm just watching to see what happens
  2. This... the entire time during the lock downs people were saying that the prophet told them to be vaccinated that it was revalation and I had to keep pointing out that's not what happened. Not because I disagreed with the vaccine (I do, for most age groups, ect) but because I was worried that if there were problems with the vaccine that it would damage their faith due to assumption.
  3. I just bought a bunch of garments with the mesh cotton mix the only problem is the collar is too high. If these have a v neck and no sleeves I'm keen. It's tough to wear garments in subtropical australia. I'm keen. Note I also love how they are making it so the symbols don't show through the top shirt I feel so much more comfortable
  4. I too married a book dragon. I have to fight to prevent her buying bookshelves because I know she will try to fill them
  5. ....if this helps here is a screenshot
  6. Wasn't helpful to my question but I do enjoy fun facts. Hopefully my the pdf I attached above helped, I also have the hard copy lying around......somewhere I don't think this is the book I was referring to but it does sound like and interesting study topic, that I'll look into
  7. Here is the pdf Sorry I haven't responded for a bit , I got distracted bm_student1996.pdf
  8. I was reading the book of mormon student manual and on pages 26 it talks about the book of Joesph being translated but not yet published. It uses the reference "A companion to your study of the book of mormon" by Daniel H Ludlow. Should I take this with a grain of salt or is there something to it Cheers
  9. Well here in Australia the cost of living is disgusting. The housing market here is the worst, second to Canada. I can't afford a house within an hour of my work place, and fuel cost around $2 a litre. I've seen two bedroom houses that need heaps of renovations on 500m sq go for over 650k. I dont live in a city and rentals are insane, and we are heavily taxed. I'm working full time but my wife can't ,and I never wanted her to have to work full time. I am struggling to get ahead. Unless you have both partners working you can't get ahead.
  10. I play a bit of DnD it keeps me and my friends close even if we have moved away. Warhammer, gardening, mauy thai and age of empires 4 plus board games.
  11. https://www.instagram.com/reel/CqUU_2VO63g/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y= My first thought
  12. The fact that America is so polarised, I don't think it matters which republican runs, the candidate we still be seen as the next Hitler
  13. So no gathering to zion yet? Ahh well next time.šŸ˜› I'll be watching conference after church here in Australia.
  14. I actually agree with that statement 100%, but to me it’s irrelevant. I have the right to own a gun for self defense, hunting….basically whatever reason I want to. I disagree, from what I've read on the America constitution the point of the right to bare arms is to prevent tyranny. Also 4th gen warfare always seems to give the American army a run for its money. Not to mention the military may be divided in the conflict.
  15. I think food prices due to shortages and inflation is going to be a big problem. I need to get that garden going.
  16. This is a nice perspective. My wife's health isn't the best making it difficult to bring children into the world plus the fear of passing on these health conditions to the kid, it is disheartening. We are striving to save up for a farm were we want to grow a range of fruits, vegetables and herbs making our own little piece of Eden. We want to be able to give and help through this way at least for now.
  17. I remember looking into this after the topic of temple divorce was brought up and the concern of what happens to the children's seeling. I found the most important seeling is to your spouse which is the most important relationship you have bar the one with God.
  18. Yeh I understand this. Sometimes the trials you face feel like you are burning every bit of faith you saved up just to make sure you don't get lost in the dark. I suppose that's how you build more faith by getting through the tough times. I guess I'll just get a bigger lamp.
  19. I think trusting your gut is a useful tool. I agree with with a few of the previous comments if you get a gut feeling take time to think it out dont just react if you can. Some people confuse the feeling of a dopamine rush with the spirit. I think Bednars patterns of light give good advice on trusting your gut or following the spirit. If it's a good decision do it anyway and take small steps through the fog.
  20. I came here for this reason as soon as I saw the words "fear" and "reaper"
  21. I love this perspective, interesting thought. Food storage has been on my mind for a while I know the preppers online are getting worried about food too. As soon as I finish studies I really want to make bigger steps for self-sufficiency
  22. I thought the Saturday morning talk by Henry B Eyring about temples was great. I thought the story about his sudden need to move was interesting, he testified of the Prophets' power of being a seer and the need to heed his counsel.
  23. I'm hearing that there is huge success online for missionary work now so maybe the transition to online teaching may end up being even greater. It's funny that you brought up this talking just yesterday a friend, my wife, and I was talking about the pressure and judgment that church culture puts on people one of them was the expectation for young men to go on a mission. I'm just wondering what inspired you to write this.
  24. Maybe the rest of the Joseph Smith Translation of the Bible. The book of Joseph of Egypt
  25. Can i get a link to this quote looks like a good read.
