The post D&C 77-87 appeared first on Jenny Smith’s Awesome Mormon Stuff.
We had a school holiday and so it has been two weeks since our last lesson. This was a super interesting experience. Another random person showed up for class. As class started going on, it came out that she had studied with the Mormons before briefly, and her husband was a “priest in the Mormon […]

The post D&C 76 – Weeks 1 and 2 appeared first on Jenny Smith’s Awesome Mormon Stuff.
I was really nervous about teaching D&C 76. There is so much information, and since I only teach weekly, I was pretty confident we would not get to all the material without rushing. Additionally, because I teach adults it’s extremely difficult for me to judge how much people already know about the harder/deeper doctrines of […]

Additionally, because I teach adults it’s extremely difficult for me to judge how much people already know about the harder/deeper doctrines of the gospel, like the degrees of glory.

#DandC84PERFECT! I’m going to make copies of this and attach it to the snack size bags of Doritos I have to hand out for “have you ‘red’ your scriptures today?” Doing small things like this all month: red treats to those who’ve “read” their scriptures.1What a good idea, Stacy Wallace Hansen! I’m glad you like it!
Cutout the 3 definitions on each of the 3 pages. Have three students come up at a time. Have each read the word and give a definition as noted on the paper. Afterwards have the class vote on whose definition they believe was the correct one. Do not tell them whose definition was the correct one. Have them read D&C 91 to figure out the correct definition. Pseudepigrapha is found in the LDS Bible dictionary. This is good to let students know about so they […]

Verse 28 talks about John being ordained by an angel, rather than his father Zacharias, who was a high priest. This article provides great insight, summed up in this quote:
President Joseph Fielding Smith has explained the matter of John’s ordination as follows:
“The reason Zacharias could not ordain John is because of the fact that John received certain keys of authority which his father Zacharias did not possess. Therefore this special authority had to be conferred by this heavenly messenger, who was duly authorized and sent to confer it. John’s ordination was not merely the bestowal of the Aaronic Priesthood, which his father held, but also the conferring of certain essential powers peculiar to the time among which was the authority to overthrow the kingdom of the Jews and ‘to make straight the way of the Lord.’ Moreover, it was to prepare the Jews and other Israelites for the coming of the Son of God. This great authority required a special ordination beyond the delegated power that had been given to Zacharias or any other priest who went before him, so the angel of the Lord was sent to John in his childhood to confer it.”

I used Elder McConkie’s talk, The Doctrine of the Priesthood, frequently as a YM Pres. I find this quote is helpful in clarifying the oath.
“Anciently the Aaronic Priesthood was limited to the Levites. It …
