I started watching Jared Halverson’s video from his Unshaken YouTube Channel for this upcoming Sunday’s Come Follow Christ lesson and love it! It covers Acts 6-9.
In it, he says (around the 27:18 mark) “What would you as a Jew in the first century A.D. be missing if somebody back in the first century had not been willing to say, wait a minute, these apostles agree with our scripture, and this additional scripture already confirms what we already have? Huh, maybe Jesus was serious when he said ‘I have come to fulfill and not to destroy.’ “
Then he gives a simple syllogism:
“Judaism is to Christianity as Christianity is to the restored gospel.”
What is this restored gospel? It is truly “a marvelous work and a wonder.” Isaiah foretold that this happen, see Isaiah 29:14 and watch this video here.
You can learn more here. I have felt the Holy Spirit witness to me that God the Father chose Joseph Smith to restore the gospel of Jesus Christ. It’s true!
You can watch both parts of Jared’s video on Acts 6-9 below. Check out his IG page here. He has such a gift for explaining gospel truths.
If you have believed in the restoration and feel you are facing a faith crisis, watch Jared’s video at the very bottom of this blog post. It’s all sooooo good!
