Law gives power and light everywhere in the universe. We are sanctified by obedience to law.(24:17) Salvation is a gift. The law as a synonym for Jesus.(26:42) God’s creations obey him. Mankind uses agency and falls short of obedience to God’s law.(28:15) The earth “rolls upon her wings” in glory and majesty.(32:37) Jesus cares about the individual. He tarried with the laborers in the field.(41:00) The Lord gives a great and last promise.(48:07) The Saints are encouraged to be instructed more perfectly, to seek out the best books, to search wisdom by study and by faith. Secular learning has a place in God’s kingdom.(53:50) Jesus wants us to warn our neighbors about the change coming to the earth. The Second Coming is described.(56:31) The history of the world is drenched in blood and warfare. The earth will bear her testimony before the Second Coming with great signs.(1:01:04) The order of the glorious resurrection. Christ’s people who are alive when He comes will be caught up to meet Him and descend with Him. They who are in their graves will be resurrected to meet Him.(1:04:13) The 5th trump is the angel proclaiming that “Every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Jesus is the Christ.”(1:07:41) The 6th trump is the angel proclaiming the end of Babylon’s reign. Zion is going to take the throne from Babylon.(1:11:49) The 7th trump is the binding of Satan. The fight is over and the Savior’s Millennial reign will commence.(1:15:06) The end of the Millennium will bring a time when Satan is loosed for a little season. The final battle between the forces of light and darkness will usher in the time of the celestial earth.(1:18:33) The Lord calls for the School of the Prophets.

0:00.0	Hey everybody, welcome to Talking Scripture, a podcast where we illustrate relevance and application of the scriptures in Come Follow Me.
0:10.1	We also dive into the history and cultures of the text.
0:13.4	Thanks for taking the time to share and subscribe to this podcast.
0:16.9	For show notes, head over to our website, talking scripture.org.
0:23.4	Welcome in Talking Scripture. I'm Mike. And I'm Bryce. And today we are going to be in Section 88
0:28.2	of the Doctrine Convents. This revelation is going to be received at the end of 1832, December 27th, and
0:34.5	28th, and then also on a third day, January 3rd. So this takes place over the course
0:39.5	of about three days in the company of about nine individuals. Essentially, we've got Joseph and
0:45.4	Sydney and some of the other leaders of the church in a three-day conference. Joseph Smith has
0:50.8	just turned 27. He's 27 years old, and he's about to show us the God of this universe in a way that no one else has ever shown.
1:00.5	To me, one of the greatest evidences that Joseph Smith was a prophet is there is no way you could come up with Section 88 on your own.
1:08.3	This is as grandiose as it comes. In the beginning of section 88, we read this
1:14.6	verse, verse 3. I send upon you another comforter, even upon you my friends, that it may abide
1:21.1	in your hearts, even the Holy Spirit of promise, which other comforter is the same that I
1:26.5	promised unto my disciples as is recorded in the
1:30.3	testimony of John. So go to John 16. And this is my translation. Essentially it reads, but I tell
1:39.0	all of you the truth. It brings you all together. Sumferre. This is this bringing together in fellowship.
1:47.2	This is what the King James says, where it says, it is expedient for you that I go away.
1:52.6	But the word used here, and an expedient can be used or fitting, but it's this binding together,
2:00.0	this sumferre, this binding together in fellowship,
2:03.4	that in his departing, he says, if I do not depart, the comforter, the pericleet, will not come
2:10.7	unto you. But if I leave, I will send him to you. And that word pericles is a word that can mean lots of things. A periclet is an advocate.
