The Office of the Keys is an aid to all believers in the battle against sin and provides consolation for those with a guilty conscience. The Roman Church taught that those who confessed all their sins to a confessor would find comfort. Enthusiasts looked within for a good conscience, apart from the Word of God. However, we know that God does not deal with us in any way other than through His spoken Word and Sacraments. By this same Word, the binding key is meant to call sinners to repentance in the promise of reconciliation in Christ. “Lord God, bring us to repentance by Your Holy Spirit and drive us back to Christ for His forgiveness through our pastor as from Christ Himself. Lord have mercy. Amen.” Rev. Paul Cain, pastor of Immanuel Lutheran Church and headmaster of Martin Luther Grammar School in Sheridan, WY, joins Rev. Brady Finnern to study confession and excommunication. To learn more about Immanuel Lutheran, visit immanuelsheridan.blogspot.com/.

We are joined by Rabbi Daniel Korobkin, medieval scholar and the translator/annotator of the Feldheim edition of Rabbi Yehuda HaLevi's Kuzari, who takes us into the story of a community in arms over whether and when to permit the study of secular knowledge. By looking at several responsa of the Rashba (1:415-417; Kisvei Yad no. 150) we get a glimpse into the age old question of how Judaism ought to interact with the broader world around it.

Dan's first of two tales is a modern encounter story set in Sauk Centre, Minnesota's Palmer Hotel. Lynze, of course, was excited when she heard "sock" center! The second story shares the haunted history of Kansas City, Missouri's St. Mary's Episcopal Church. Does the ghost of an early church leader still haunt its grounds? Then Lynze comes to us with three stories. Her first reminds us of how creepy kids toys can be. Then, an ongoing family situation with a family has one person asking what she married in to! Lastly, a gentle and loving ghost tale to remind us to be grateful for what we DO have in life!

In this episode, we continue exploring the topic of permitted speech on Shabbat, focusing on commercial matters, communal concerns, and specific cases like announcing lost items or nullifying excommunications. We discuss whether these actions align with Shabbat observance and when exceptions are made for community needs. Join us as we break down the halachic perspectives on these important issues.
No matter how some people try to deny it, we humans are very tribal. And for the most part, that can be a good thing if we will forego any sense of tribal superiority. So if one is excommunicated from a tribe the mental and spiritual toll can be significant. In her book ‘Ghosted' Nancy French describes her upbringing in a Fundamentalist Christian church and early alliance with conservative Republican politics. For years she made her living as a ghost writer for several prominent right-wing politicians. But when she and her husband declared themselves to be Never Trumpers, doors closed, calls were ignored and friends abandoned them. In this episode we speak with Nancy about the trauma, betrayal and heartbreak of maintaining high principles in the face of such challenges.
The discussion centers on the intricate and compassionate process of church discipline, emphasizing its necessity for spiritual growth and accountability within the Christian community. We elucidate that church discipline is not a mere procedural formality but rather a protracted journey characterized by love and a sincere desire for the individual to repent and flourish in their faith. Initially, we advocate for private correction among peers, wherein one lovingly confronts a fellow believer regarding their transgressions, and if they respond positively, reconciliation is achieved. However, should the individual remain obstinate and unrepentant, the process necessitates the involvement of additional witnesses to plead for their return to righteousness. Ultimately, in cases of persistent rebellion against God, we must confront the difficult reality of excommunication, a measure taken not lightly, but as a final recourse to uphold the integrity of the church and the sanctity of the faith.Takeaways: The process of church discipline is intricate and demands a considerable investment of time. It is essential to approach church discipline with compassion, aiming for the individual's spiritual growth. Correction should begin with a private conversation, emphasizing love and the desire for repentance. When initial efforts fail, it is appropriate to involve others to witness and support the correction process. Excommunication is a last resort that signifies a serious breach in one's adherence to Christian principles. Throughout the discipline process, the intent remains focused on restoration rather than punishment or condemnation.

From "condign penalties" (i.e. torture and murder) inflicted upon Masons by the Inquisition under In eminenti apostolauts to the incomplete and inaccurate characterization of the Fraternity in Humanum genus (which really just rails against a modernizing world), the Catholic Church's position on Freemasonry cannot pass scrutiny. The Church's position on the Freemasonry is untenable, outdated, and inaccurate. It was always based on hearsay and incorrect assumptions about the Fraternity (at least as practiced in the United States). Pope Leo XIII wasn't just wrong, his reasoning in Humanum genus is deeply flawed and fundamentally at odds with the Church's own adaptations over the last 150 years. It's time the Church revised its censure against Freemasons and, frankly, apologized.

It's Christmas Eve and this means different things for everyone. Some have the family gathering with food and laughter. Many do not. Chaz grew up in an unhappy family that was fully devoted to the horrific teachings of a backwards church. He endured every kind of abuse there is before growing up and finding his way out. As a co-host of the Excommunication Station, Chaz pushes back at the harmful parts of christian culture and politics. And as a father and husband, he is healing from his childhood while fostering a loving and supportive family life. And even though Scott is known to be an anti-Christmas, pro-Krampus curmudgeon, he has a special Christmas message that he fully admits he teared up recording.

THE EXCOMMUNICATION OF JESUS CHRIST AND HIS BELIEVERS, Part 2 of Chapter 12 of The Church and The Priesthood To summarize this chapter: 1. The Mosaic church operated under the authority of the Levitical Priesthood, and Christ held the office of Rabbi in that church. However, Joseph Smith said, “All the prophets had the Melchizedek Priesthood and were ordained by God himself.” (TPJS, p. 181) Jesus had received that Priesthood from His Father, and therefore possessed the highest Priesthood authority. 2. Jesus attempted to teach higher laws of this higher Priesthood, and also performed miracles demonstrating the power that He had with God. These two factors caused both fear and envy among the chief priests and Pharisees. (See Matt. 27:18 & Mark 15:10.) 3. The Jews excommunicated Jesus for teaching and living the doctrines of the higher Priesthood while they themselves were living on only a Levitical Priesthood level. Thus, Levitical Priesthood holders were incorrectly attempting to excommunicate a Melchizedek Priesthood holder. 4. Jesus, His disciples and all others from then on who believed in Him were excommunicated from the synagogue. Jesus had to teach, live and administer the higher ordinances outside of the Mosaic church of the Jews. 5. The Mosaic church did not become Christian. Rather Christianity began outside of and separate from the Jewish church. 6. Essentially the higher principles of the true church and the fullness of the Gospel were considered as an apostate religion. 7. This pattern has occurred repeatedly–both in ancient and latter days.
THE EXCOMMUNICATION OF JESUS CHRIST AND HIS BELIEVERS, Part 1 of Chapter 12 of The Church and The Priesthood Pages 196 to 214 When Jacob gathered his 12 sons together to give them their patriarchal blessings, he prophesied what would happen to their descendants down to the last days. In the blessing for Judah and his tribe, he declared, “The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh (the Savior) come; . . . (Gen. 49:10) To Moses was given the task of giving the Priesthood (sceptre) and its higher laws, but the people did not qualify. So Moses established a church with the Aaronic Priesthood and its lesser laws. The Jews (descendants of Judah) maintained both the Priesthood, its principles, ordinances and church down to the time that the Savior (Shiloh) came to earth. Jesus was born and raised in this church and soon became a full-fledged Rabbi with all their rights and privileges of teaching the Gospel. Jesus, however, was blessed with such wisdom and understanding that even at age 12 He confounded the wisest of the Pharisees on Priesthood issues. When He began to teach the laws of the higher Priesthood, he was rejected and “cast out” of the synagogues. This story of Christ's rejection is told in the King James version of the Bible, but it is told better in some of the other versions.
EXCOMMUNICATION OF THE DISCIPLES, Chapter 11 of The Church and The Priesthood Pages 192 to 195 Jesus predicted that His disciples would be separated from “their company” and their names would be “cast out . . . as evil.” (Luke 6:22) He warned them of what they should expect from the Pharisees–and that they would eventually be excommunicated: These things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not be offended. They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service. And these things will they do unto you, because they have not known the Father, nor me. (John 16:1-3) The fact that the Pharisees did not “know” Jesus and the Father seems to be a major reason for their persecuting Christ's disciples. Jesus once prayed, “O righteous Father, the world hath not known thee: but I have known thee. . . .” (John 17:25) When He had previously talked about the day of judgment, he said, “And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.” (Matt. 7:23) However, in the Inspired Translation it reads, “And then will I say, Ye never knew me: depart from me ye that work iniquity.” (I.T. Matt. 7:33)
Questions Covered: 10:38 – Why was the Ascension “necessary”? 13:05 – Some saints were said to have levitated. Will our resurrected bodies have abilities like levitation, telekinesis, etc.? 17:12 – What if the pope breaks the seal of confession? Is he excommunicated? Who would he be excommunicated from? 21:00 – Is the war in Israel/Hamas prophesied in the Bible? 24:06 – I'd like to know the church's view on the union dock worker strike? Is it ok to stop working in this situation/what roles does the union play in society? 32:22 – After the bodily resurrection, do we live in Heaven, the new Earth, or some combination of the two? 33:14 – Hi Jimmy. Why were there guards stationed at the tomb of Jesus if Jews only believed in Resurrection at the end the world? Doesn’t this imply that the Jewish authorities at least thought Jesus’s followers believed Jesus could rise from the dead? Do you think His disciples believed he would rise after 3 days? 37:35 – Jimmy Akin. Do you think that Jesus received any grace when he ate the Eucharist? I know He is the source of grace, but He was strengthened by an angel in the Agony in the garden. Curious to hear your thoughts on what is happening in both of these instances, on a metaphysical or ontological level. 42:40 – Are there instructions or limits to cursing? My intuition is that it is bad… but Jesus did curse a fig tree and said woe to whom betrayed Him. Was it OK because He’s God? Furthermore, would it be bad to curse a war and what would be the effect? 51:09 – When death occurs suddenly and the incident is faster than the brain can comprehend (as in the case of a submarine implosion) does God give a grace of awareness to the victim, or is it possible for the soul to be confused at the judgment seat of Christ? …
EXCOMMUNICATION–JUST AND UNJUST, Part 1 of Chapter 9 of The Church and The Priesthood Pages 178 to 183 In simple terms, communication includes a connecting, sympathetic relationship, while excommunication involves a disconnection or exclusion. In a Latter-day Saint context, some have thought that excommunication results in some terrible curse or judgment that befalls those cut off from the Church. However, when someone is excommunicated for a gross sin, that person has already incurred a severe judgment, for he has already lost his Priesthood because of his actions, and his excommunication has nothing to do with that loss. Most churches, notably Christian and Jewish, have a ceremonial program for the punishment of their members. The type of punishment depends on the seriousness of the sin. When greater offenses have been committed, individuals are removed from the general membership of the church. Thus, they are “excommunicated,” “cast out” or “cut off.” Just as a man might have an arm or leg cut off or separated from the body, so is a member separated from the body of the church. Cutting off. In the Old Testament a penalty or form of punishment used primarily, though not exclusively, for various offenses against the ceremonial laws. The agent of the “cutting off” was either God or the community. (Wycliffe Bible Dictionary, p. 412)
EXCOMMUNICATION–JUST AND UNJUST, Part 2 of Chapter 9 of The Church and The Priesthood Pages 183 to 187 Where much is given, much is required, and in those early days of the Church, God gave great manifestations and revelations and thus expected a great deal from the members in return. In 1864 George A. Smith gave an illustration of this principle: It was at the same Council [June 1833] that Daniel Copley, a timid young man, who had been ordained a Priest, and required to go and preach the Gospel, was called to an account for not going on his mission. The young man said he was too weak to attempt to preach, and the Council cut him off the Church. I wonder what our missionaries now would think of so rigid a discipline as was given at that time thirty-one years ago, under the immediate supervision of the Prophet. (JD 11:8) Members who commit heinous sins are already cut off from the Spirit of the Lord even before they are brought to a Church trial. They generally continue to go downhill and fall into darkness, while those who are unjustly excommunicated feel no effect of it. Persons sometimes say that they have enjoyed the spirit of the work as much since they were cut off as while they were in the Church. Have they enjoyed the Spirit? Yes. Why? Simply because they were wrongfully cut off. They were cut off in such a way that it did not take the Spirit of God from them. And the reason why they were cut off was because they did not come up to the particular standard of perfection of those who dealt with them, or they did not come up to their feelings. (Francis M. Lyman, Mill. Star24:100)
Together, with Fr. Mike, we examine the wound of abortion. Fr. Mike emphasizes that all human life deserves protection, especially the unborn, but he also emphasizes the importance of God's mercy. He explains that those who have procured an abortion are excommunicated, subject to the conditions established by Canon Law. However, the excommunication does not limit the scope of God's mercy, but rather highlights the gravity of the sin. Fr. Mike concludes by highlighting that if abortion is a part of your story, you are encouraged to take the step towards confession and forgiveness, to be met with mercy and love and be welcomed home.

In this episode, Jesse Schwamb and Tony Arsenal of the Reformed Brotherhood delve into the parable of the wheat and tares, offering an insightful discussion on the challenges of discerning true believers from false ones. They explore the theological implications of this parable, emphasizing the responsibility of Christians to recognize the true Church while acknowledging that individual believers do not hold the authority to make these determinations independently. This conversation underscores the importance of understanding the roles and responsibilities within the Church, particularly regarding church discipline and the power of the keys. The hosts discuss the historical and eschatological elements of the Church's authority, drawing connections to the biblical narrative of Adam's role in the Garden of Eden. They highlight the parallels between the parable's servants and the responsibility of guarding the faith, suggesting that vigilance and discernment are crucial for the Church's health and integrity. By examining the significance of ecclesiastical authority, Jesse and Tony provide a nuanced perspective on the visible and invisible Church and the implications of these distinctions for both individual believers and church leaders. Throughout the episode, the Reformed Brotherhood emphasizes the need for collective discernment within the Church, stressing that proper church discipline, including excommunication, has real consequences for believers. They advocate for a deeper understanding of ecclesiastical authority and the marks of the true Church to ensure that Christians are aligned with a congregation that faithfully adheres to biblical principles. Key Points: The parable of the wheat and tares illustrates the challenge of discerning true believers within the Church. Individual Christians do not have the authority to determine who is a true believer; this is the role of the Church's leaders. The Church's authority is rooted in biblical principles, with the power of the keys being a significant theological concept. Questions for Reflection: How does the parable of the wheat and tares inform our understanding of who belongs to the true Church? What are the implications of church discipline and excommunication for individual believers? How can Christians discern the marks of the true Church in today's diverse ecclesiastical landscape?

Nemo the Mormon was recently summoned to a Disciplinary Council by his local church leaders in Oxford, England. While his Membership Council letter was vague on the exact reasons why this council is being held, he has some pretty good guesses. He recently went on LADBible and flew down to America to speak at the McKinney, Texas City Council. Nemo has also been a staple in the LDS Discussions series and hosts his own channel where he focuses primarily on the statements and remarks of current LDS leaders to determine the truthfulness of those statements. Additionally, recently leaked training material indicates that President Oaks is pushing Mormon leaders to conduct more of these Disciplinary Councils. Our hearts go out to Nemo during this difficult time and we ask for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to do better. Show Notes YouTube Mormon Stories Thanks Our Generous Donors!

Join us today as we discuss the shocking wave of excommunications hitting at least five married lesbian couples in the Mormon Church across the US. These events stand in stark contrast to what we thought was a hopeful shift in welcoming LGBT married couples in the Church. Here are a few questions for the Church: What happened? Is the right to preserve one's membership intact a privilege reserved only for select LGBT Mormons? How is the Church guiding these decisions? Are divine revelations to local leaders influenced by the affluence of their congregations? Is God giving different revelations depending on the level of backlash anticipated from local members?
