The Iron Rod Podcast

Lectures on Faith were added to the scriptures in 1835 by a general assembly of the church. They were removed in 1921 by a committee of six men. In this episode we review the history of how and why the Lectures were created, rebut some of the reasons given for their removal, and discuss a few of the key doctrines taught in the Lectures.

We discuss the different roles of a prophet, including bringing forth the word of God and testing the people. We also review and test “The Fourteen Fundamentals of Following the Prophet” against the scriptures.

We discuss the reformatted scriptures recently published by MD, including examples of issues they address as well as Watcher’s plan for taking them to the next level.

Watcher shares a few of his first word searches. Searcher discusses the importance of historical records and tools like the Joseph Smith Papers project. MD talks about using BibleHub to analyze the Greek and Hebrew origins of the Bible.

The debut podcast by Watcher, Searcher, and MD. After introductions, we discuss the value of searching the scriptures rather than simply reading or studying them.
