Re: 19th century phrases in BOM
My fave topic. I'm irritated that they have probationary as a 1-gram when it is clearly a 2-gram when you add "state" to it. Then you see it mentioned hundreds of times in Hopkinsian Magazine 1824, the fan club of theologian Jonathan Edwards. This phrase and concept doesn't appear anywhere in hebrew or greek scripture.

Easy explanation. The seer stone was programmed to convert Reformed Egyptian pictorial algorithms into 19th Century expressions and then make it sound like Jacobean English so as to be pleasing to the Lord.
Good faith does not require evidence, but it also does not turn a blind eye to that evidence. Otherwise, it becomes misplaced faith.

Makes sense, Shakespeare is performed on the fifteen ruling planets through the medium of Kae-e-vanrash, which is powered by Kli-flos-is-es and Hah-ko-kau-beams.

That link was awesome. The Hopkinsian Magazine is explaining BOM doctrine right about the time the BOM was being written. The author sounds like Alma! The doctrine in the article seems closer to the BOM than modern Mormon doctrine, like marriage in the afterlife, eternal progression, and all that stuff.FiveFingerMnemonic wrote: ↑Fri Nov 10, 2017 10:41 pm My fave topic.

Re: 19th century phrases in BOM
I was blown away by the other sermons in the magazine too, they talk about the Sabbath day in very mormon like ways and even try to tear into Swedenborg.BriansThoughtMirror wrote: ↑Mon Nov 13, 2017 1:19 pm Thanks for pointing out this article! It's really fascinating!
