sixpactr, you can get them on MP3--I like to listen to them on the way/back from the temple. I, too, love those series. Brings deeper insight to many things.

I thought more closely about the sacred oil used for anointing when Bro. Skinner said that. Made me realize, too, that it is more important than I gave credit for previously.

It also makes sense in that the name "Christ" or "Messiah" means "Anointed." When a king was anointed, he was being set apart as legal heir of the Divine King. A literal adoption into the household of God, so that the mortal king was in many ways considered divine, as well.

When we are anointing for the sick, we are first placing Christ's atoning power on the person. But we are also anointing the person with Christ's atoning blood. D&C 42:44 gets a new meaning for us when we consider it in this light.

So, he thought that it was possible that Gethsemane could have occurred in a cave, as well.

I highly doubt it since both Lee and Kimball when visiting the area declared one of those hand crafted caves, was the location where Christ's body was laid, they even went on talked about the location where Christ suffered for the sins of the world as He laid prostrated on the earth in the garden above Jerusalem. Though, not being in that location, I would take both words as revelatory for me as truths. Even when I visited Adam-ondi-Ahman and stood [spot] on what I term a resemblance of Adams’s first built alter in offering sacrifices to GOD and felt the Spirit of confirmation. This same pattern must have been the same as both men felt of the promptings of the amiable whisperings of the Spirit when both visited the area during their tenure as brethren in the church.

As I don't believe ever that the Savior would go to a cave and offer up a solemn prayer to His FATHER over precious matters or applying the atonement for us all. Seeing John was awake during this precious moment, I believe it was quite the opposite. If I was in His shoes, I would opt for the highest point - openly – to make this moment happen as described in the scriptures.

Now, when it comes to a cave, I am reminded of both Mohammad and Lucifer. Mohammad in receiving instruction from the Angel Gabriel and Lucifer headed for after being commanded to leave by Peter. James, and John.

How? I went to BYUTV, and see that they now have a tab that is strictly for all of these series (D&C, NT, OT, BoM, Isaiah) so that you can watch whichever one you want whenever you want.

Thanks for the tip...

I'm trying to remember, but I think I went to Itunes store and downloaded them from there (they are free). I'll try to see if I can find it when I get home from work.

I just did a google search for "byutv discussions" and it brought up the website, but my work firewall blocked it.

Yup, Itunes has it. I just have to subscribe to the podcast, which MIGHT be a video...not sure, but we'll see as they come thru...

thanks for the help...

When I subscribed, it was to the MP3, not a video.

sixpacktr · #18 (**permalink**) 09-30-2009, 01:38 PM

got em all. PLUS, the BoM, the NT, the PoGP scriptures. And it is MP3.

Thanks again for the tip...

I can't even access the YOUTUBE site when someone list them here.
