Separating "the church" from the Book of Mormon: Was the church restored in 1830 p5

Send us Fan MailVIDEO PODCAST HEREThis concludes our series examining whether the Church was restored in 1830. In this final installment, we review additional revelations that did not come to pass, along with various challenges that arose under the leadership of Joseph Smith as prophet.Our hope throughout this series is that viewers will thoughtfully consider whether the church organization established by Joseph Smith and his associates was truly divine in origin or the product of human effort. We have sought to clearly distinguish between the restored church structure and the simple, foundational gospel taught in the Book of Mormon.Upon closer examination, the Book of Mormon stands apart in both spirit and substance—particularly in its emphasis on simplicity—from many of the doctrines and practices that were later introduced through Joseph Smith's revelations. We invite all who watch to prayerfully ponder these matters. We encourage you to approach the Book of Mormon with fresh eyes, asking God to help you separate longstanding church traditions from its core message: the simple call to repentance made possible by the Savior's atoning sacrifice on the cross.The Book of Mormon is unequivocal in its teaching that only those who repent are covered by the Atonement of Jesus Christ and receive everlasting life in His kingdom. Restored Gospel  - Scripture Search and Study Resources Contact us:restoredgospelpodcast@gmail.comMusic by Michael Barrett

Send us Fan MailVIDEO PODCASTIn our previous episode, we explored the simple, straightforward church that Jesus Christ established in the Book of Mormon, along with its clear and plain doctrine: repent, be baptized, receive the Holy Ghost, become as a little child, and endure to the end.Today, we turn our attention to 1830, when Joseph Smith declared himself a prophet, apostle, elder, and the sole spokesman for God. Although he was instructed to record the doctrines he received, the Book of Mormon records that Jesus Himself commanded His followers to write down His doctrine and warned them not to add to it.In this episode, we examine the significant additions that were later introduced, and we ask a serious question: Was Joseph Smith truly a prophet? And would a true prophet set aside or override the previous teachings of Jesus Christ?We'll share direct quotes from early church meetings that declared older revelations and doctrines outdated, claiming that new instructions were needed for a new time. Yet we maintain that God does not change, and neither does His word.By the end of this episode, we hope you'll clearly see the striking differences between the simple church described in the Book of Mormon and the modern church established by Joseph Smith. Restored Gospel  - Scripture Search and Study Resources Contact us:restoredgospelpodcast@gmail.comMusic by Michael Barrett

Now!   He wants to dwell in us.   This has possibly become a watered down, christian phrase that isn't really considered or paid attention to on a deeper level.  But consider.....the creator of the universe living within you and setting you apart for His holy purposes.   How can one be bored with life, or give in to the monotony of the day to day activities surrounded by spiritual Babylon if the King of the Universe is residing with in us.   Not only are we told of a new heaven and new earth as part of a future existence but he are told He wants to give us a new heart.  One that is filled with His holy spirit.  This is sanctification.   This is the purpose of the gospel and this is something that has been covered up and buried under the gentile teaching of Joseph Smith and the early church.   The message restored in plainness in the Book of Mormon was substituted with another message and it has left many wondering, what went wrong.   It has left leaders asking "what is the purpose of our existence".   Perhaps the time is here to repent and look at the Book of Mormon  message preserved through the years to come forth at this time.  By following its teachings that came from God Himself, we have a glorious promise that He will transform our heart and restore us to Him.   As a nation, as a people, and on a very personal level, regardless of what other evils are going on in the world today.   Our hope and purpose is in looking forward to not only a new heaven and new earth but to a New Heart where God dwells within us.  Restored Gospel  - Scripture Search and Study Resources Contact us:restoredgospelpodcast@gmail.comMusic by Michael Barrett

Send us Fan MailVIDEO PODCASTIn a recent letter sent to the restoration branches by a group of Elders who belong to a loosely organized body to bring ministry, there was some honest observations made.  One being, that we are headed into obscurity.  We discuss the probable reasons why this has happened and the prophecies that explain what is ahead for those who repent or do not repent.  Whether a person is from from the house of Israel or a gentile,  the message is the same and lineage doesn't matter when it comes to our relationship with God.  The message is to repent.  Not surface level of repentance, but aligning one's heart and submitting one's will to his very creator and giver of life.  A deep, all encompassing repentance,  is what God calls for.  Below was communication sent to the church at large:Dear Saints, There comes a time in every organization in which certain questions must be asked. The CRE has been a fixture in the Restoration Movement for 31 years now. There has been much good done for the sake of the Kingdom through the efforts of those who have participated throughout the years. While we recognize that the CRE is not “The Church,” it has been fulfilling the missionary role of the Church quite well.It Is not difficult to look back in recent years and see the declining participation in the Elders Conference and other activities sponsored by the CRE. It has become increasingly difficult to fill the quorums so that they can operate effectively. We could spend hours, or even days postulating on the reason behind this decline. Perhaps life has become busier than in times past? Perhaps it seems to some that the CRE has drifted away from the purpose for which it was formed? Whatever the reason may be, the fact remains that, much like the Restoration Branches themselves, if we continue on our current path, we will continue to dwindle into obscurity. While the coordinating council has reaffirmed that the conference should remain true to its stated purpose, there may be those who disagree. There are those who would stand on the side of discontinuing the CRE. We could spend unbounded hours expressing our opinions on this topic. There is one thing to remember, however, that is basic to our beliefs. We believe in a God who speaks today. Our opinions, though fruitful for banter, debate, and discussion, are not comparable to God's will revealed. We would like to invite all who read this to spend time in fasting and prayer in preparation for the 2026 conference. Pray for the ministry of those who have been tasked with bringing classes, services, or sermons. Pray for the Spirit of God to rest upon all who attend. Pray for peace and harmony in our discussions. Pray that God's voice will be heard in answer to our petitions. Let us come together in an attitude of worship and reverence and ask God if He would that the CRE continue, and what His purpose would be. This will be a topic of discussion in our quorum meetings at conference. May God bless each of you in your daily preparations and ministries. May He be glorified in all things. Sincerely,Jay Havener - Coordinating Council Chairman,  Jeremy Stephenson-Conference Chaiman.

It is imperative we understand this not only for our salvation one day in heaven but.....to truly live now.  To be ALIVE.   Not just to merely exist one day after another undtil our heart stops beating.   True joy, peace, freedom, and most importantly Love can be experienced today, here, now.   But it does not come cheaply or easily.    This episode looks at what the word truly says about grace, accepting Jesus, and salvation.   Men stumble because of false teachings and misunderstandings, false traditions passed down from others.   It is most important we constantly return to the word of God to see what He says.  As has become our great joy, we look at clarification and additional understanding that comes from the word in the Book of Mormon  as well as the bible.   Restored Gospel - Scripture Search and Study Resources Contact us:restoredgospelpodcast@gmail.comMusic by Michael Barrett

Is it  necessary or not?   Is it an afterthought, a choice, a commandment?   Does it save you?   The additional clarity that comes from the Book of Mormon leaves no room for misunderstanding.  Baptism doesn't save you, repentance does, by allowing the blood of CHRIST to wash you clean.  Baptism is the first fruit of that repentance.  http://www.restoredgospel.com/PODCASTLINKS/TheDeeperMeaningofBaptism.pdf Restored Gospel - Scripture Search and Study Resources Contact us:restoredgospelpodcast@gmail.comMusic by Michael Barrett

Send us a textVideo Podcast HerePart 3 in our series on Book of Mormon proofs.  There were no horses during Book of Mormon  times.   No barely, no copper, no steel, etc.  Arguments against the Book of Mormon  have been around since the ink was barely dry.  We look at some of these arguments and see how when science catches up, the Book of Mormon is vindicated time and again on issues no one knew at the time, going against science and popular understandings of the day.   To say Joseph Smith  and friends created this book under their own power , fails to explain how the book continues to be right on every occasion and vindicated as time goes on.   It takes more faith to believe the Book of Mormon is a fraud made up by 1830 men then to believe it's supernatural divine origins and translation process.   Restored Gospel - Scripture Search and Study Resources Contact us:restoredgospelpodcast@gmail.comMusic by Michael Barrett
