WaPo - The Rise of the Liberal Latter-day Saints & Bottom-Up Revelation

In this Washington Post Magazine article, the author creates a narrative that depicts a conflict between "bottom-up" revelation and "top-down" revelation. The article, while well written, assumes that the Church should react to the people's desire for change. Those interviewed expect that the Doctrine of the Family and temple marriage will change.

Education's War Against Men

"Where Have All The Men Gone?" We have arrived at a point where for every man that graduates from college, nearly two women will graduate. This is not only a problem for men but for women as well. Girls and women dominate scholastic leadership roles, student government, college admissions, valedictorians, and diplomas. And there is no reversal in sight. The only group this helps, are the highly educated males. Website - https://www.cwicmedia.com

The Black National Anthem, CRT, and Intersectionality

The NFL is playing the Black National Anthem before games. Why is there a push to have two National Anthems? What is the purpose? Critical Race Theory (CRT) and Intersectionality are the engines behind this push. They seek to tear down liberal democracy by breaking us into groups and reforming our institutions. America was built for all. That means "assimilation" for all to its principles of freedom. Website- https://www.cwicmedia.com

"Checks and Balances" The General Priesthood and organization of the Church has a built-in "checks and balances" similar to the US Constitution. There are three quorums that can "check" each other with a unanimous vote. Section 107 provides great detail for the Higher and Lower Laws administered by the Melchizedek and Aaronic Priesthoods.

Teddy Bear Jesus and The Therapy Gospel

With works and grace, and personal responsibility and comfort, the gospel pendulum seems to be rapidly swinging toward the latter. But a "Teddy Bear" Jesus is not the answer nor is it the true Doctrine of Christ. "Comfort" is turning to victimhood and resentment, forming victim groups and expecting Jesus Christ to be the "liberator" of such griefs. This turns the gospel into a "Therapy" Gospel coddling victimhood and stealing personal responsibility. Website- https://www.cwicmedia.com

Come Follow Me LDS - Doctrine and Covenants 102-105

The Plan of Salvation asks us to all be "saviors of men." God is not just a "Healer" or a therapist. The Plan is for us to become like Him, not just to be "fixed." As we receive more light, we are to shine that light for others. This is why those at the Tree of Life do not gather and store the fruit for themselves, rather, they partake of it. This signifies that they become like the Tree. They are to become like Christ. Website- https://www.cwicmedia.com
