The spiritual fulfillment of the coming of Jesus, as opposed to a literal understanding of his expectation. This video is about how Elijah and Immanuel were supposed to come but we didn't literally get them coming physically from the sky or by name. But instead it came spiritually, so the second coming can, at least possibly, be fulfilled spiritually as well. Sections: 0:41 Empathizing with Israel 5:38 God Tests His Servants 39:29 Was John the Baptist Elijah? 58:59 The Name - The Body - The Eye 1:03:54 Conclusion Download MP3 and PDF: https://tinyurl.com/5bks9hn3 Links: Podcast (apple): https://goo.gl/CM4TmV Podcast (android): https://goo.gl/ovLmps Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/bridgingbeliefs Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BridgingBeliefs9 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bridgingbeliefs9/ X: https://x.com/BridgingBeliefs The Official Bahá'í site: http://www.bahai.org/Support the show

In this episode, we explore Doctrine and Covenants sections 115 through 120—some of the most defining revelations in the history of the early Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. These revelations, given in 1838, officially establish the divinely revealed name of the Church, emphasizing that it must bear the name of Jesus Christ to clearly identify whose Church it is. The Lord also directs the Saints to build up the sacred gathering place of Adam-ondi-Ahman in Missouri—a site tied to ancient prophecy and the future return of the Savior. Through these commands, the Saints are reminded that their work is not only about organizing a church but about preparing a people and a place for the coming of Christ. Sections 119 and 120 introduce the law of tithing, a principle that would bless both individual Saints and the Church collectively. This revelation set a divine pattern of sacrifice and stewardship, where the faithful contribute one-tenth of their increase to sustain the Lord's work on earth. These sections show how the Lord guides His people in both spiritual and temporal matters—establishing identity through His name, unity through sacred gathering places, and consecration through the law of tithing. Together, these revelations reflect the growing maturity of the restored Church and the Lord's ongoing pattern of preparing His Saints for Zion.

A new MP3 sermon from The Narrated Puritan is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: God Is The Natural Man's Enemy - Sections 1-5 Subtitle: God Exalted Man Humbled Speaker: Jonathan Edwards Broadcaster: The Narrated Puritan Event: Audiobook Date: 10/5/2025 Bible: Romans 5:11 Length: 67 min.

Men Naturally are God's Enemies Dated August, 1736. "The power of the enmity of natural men against God, is so great, that it is insuperable by any finite power. It has too great and strong a possession of the heart, to be overcome by any created power. Indeed, a natural man never sincerely strives to root out his enmity against God. His endeavors are hypocritical. He delights in his enmity, and chooses it. Neither can others do it, though they sincerely, and to their utmost, endeavor to overcome this enmity. If godly friends and neighbors labor to persuade them to cast away their enmity, and become friends to God, they cannot persuade them to it. Though ministers use never so many arguments and entreaties, and set forth the loveliness of God; tell them of the goodness of God to them, hold forth God's own gracious invitations, and entreat them never so earnestly to cast off their opposition, and be reconciled; yet they cannot overcome it. Still they will be as bad enemies to God, as ever they were. — The tongue of men or of angels cannot persuade them to relinquish their opposition to God. Miracles will not do it."

Some people claim that Hindu scriptures teach an impersonal God (Brahman or Ultimate Reality) as opposed to a personal Being who has a Will to interact and have a relationship with mankind.

This week onThe Feds, we are joined by Meryl Nass, MD, founder and president of Door to Freedom, medical advisor to Children's Health Defense, and host on CHD TV. Dr. Nass provides an in-depth analysis of two concerning provisions in the 2025 House Appropriations Bill: Sections 453 and 507.  Section 453 prohibits funding for timely updates to product labels and safety recommendations, a critical issue given that successful lawsuits against chemical giant Bayer have often relied on labeling disputes. Dr. Nass explains the far-reaching implications of this rider for public health and safety. Additionally, Dr. Nass examines Section 507, which restricts government funding for the implementation or further study of a January 2025 EPA report. This report documented the toxic and carcinogenic effects of "forever chemicals" found in sewer sludge used as agricultural fertilizer, raising serious environmental and health concerns. Who in Congress is writing and supporting these sections? Why? What can YOU do as an American citizen? Tune in for this compelling discussion on critical policy issues impacting public safety and environmental health. This is an episode you won't want to miss! —Watch Dr. Nass' show regarding Section 507 (starts @ 36:30):https://live.childrenshealthdefense.org/chd-tv/shows/good-morning-chd/youre-employer-can-mandate-killing-you-poisoning-farmland/ Learn more about the history behind Section 453:https://merylnass.substack.com/p/will-congress-give-the-pesticide Read more about Section 507 and “forever chemicals:” https://merylnass.substack.com/p/sewer-sludge-was-deodorized-and-magically Dr. Nass' Organization:DoortoFreedom.org

Correction! Section 93 was received while Joseph and Emma Smith were living in the Whitney Store, not the Whitney Home.Join us for a one of a kind Book of Abraham Workshop at Castle Park in Lindon or via Zoom. Sept. 11-13. Find details at outofthedust.org. We will really dive into the Book of Abraham and answer your questions.In this section Kerry Muhlestein and Anthony Sweat explore the reception of the amazing revelation we call Section 93. They trace how revelations like Sections 76, 84, and 88 lead to the flood of light about light that is in Section 93. They delve into what it means for Christ to receive grace for grace and go from grace to grace. They investigate the repeated teachings about receiving a "fulness" that is taught in this revelation, and how one can become a being that reaches its full capacity. They explore teachings about light and what it means for us. They also look into the interrelationship between this revelation and the writings of John. This helps us understand how light and truth are from and are Christ, and thus how Christ is part of everything around us and part of us and how we can make that even more the case as we become joint heirs. They look at our journey towards holiness and how Christ must be the most important part of our path towards holiness. They show us how Christ is our exemplar in receiving grace, light and a fulness, and how we can become Christlike through Christ and all these things. They discuss how our natures can be transformed and how Christ shows us the way and is the way.We are grateful for our executive producers, M. Rosema, B. Fisher, J. Beardall, D. Anderson, and H. Umphlett, and for all our generous and loyal donors. We are also very grateful for all our Patreon members.

In this Tax Tuesday episode, Anderson tax attorneys Amanda Wynalda, Esq., and Eliot Thomas, Esq., tackle a diverse range of tax questions covering rental property strategies, depreciation rules, and business structure optimization. They explain the tax implications of renting property to family members below market rates, including income reporting requirements and limited deduction capabilities. The attorneys discuss gifting rental properties to children and the associated gift tax filing requirements, while exploring sophisticated property management company structures for generating earned income and maximizing retirement contributions. They provide detailed guidance on utilizing IRS sections 168 and 179 for depreciation and bonus depreciation, clarifying the current 100% bonus depreciation rules and debunking outdated 80% figures. Other topics include S-corp benefits for 1099 contractors, holistic health business taxation, accountable plan cell phone deductions backed by IRS Notice 2011-72, vehicle deduction methods and limitations, and even professional gambling expense deductions for Vegas visitors. Throughout the episode, they emphasize proper entity structuring, asset protection, and tax planning strategies. Submit your tax question to taxtuesday@andersonadvisors.com Highlights/Topics: "I have a question about tax implications of renting my property to my parents. If I rent it to them for less than fair market value, are there any tax incentives or exemptions in this situation? I'm trying to understand whether I would still need to report the income and if I would lose the ability to deduct expenses associated with the property." - Must report income; IRS treats below-market family rentals as not-for-profit activities. "In 2024, I deeded some rental properties to my children about $250,000 each. Is there a way to write this off?" - No deduction available; must file Form 709 for gift tax reporting. "I have four rental properties. I personally manage them through an LLC. Can I use my company as a management company and charge a 20% fee for managing it to be able to show I have earned income and then contribute to an IRA? Also, would I be able to establish a Roth IRA?" - Yes, with reasonable fees and proper structure; enables IRA contributions. "How do I utilize IRS code section 168 and 179 for depreciation and bonus depreciation? How do I buy cars and furniture right off up to 80% of the value of the property every time I buy a house rental or asset? Can I utilize AI or any AI software with these to automate and hands off anything?" - Use 179 first, then 168 bonus depreciation; now 100% not 80%. "I'm a 1099 independent contractor. I own two pieces of property, one is my primary residence, the other has a home and a small apartment on it that I rent out long term under the table. My thoughts are that I need to create an LLC for my business, possibly an S corp. As I understand the tax laws, there will be no way to use any of the rental properties to reduce the tax burden of my 1099 income. Am I on the right track here?" - Report all income; S-corp saves self-employment tax; passive losses don't offset. "I'm going to start a consulting business that focuses on holistic health. What should I be looking for in the next six months or so when I launch? Is taxation different from real estate and in what way?" - Consider S-corp for self-employment tax savings; business expenses differ significantly. "With an accountable plan, can I deduct a hundred percent of a cell phone? Is there some documentation that backs this up? Prove it." - Yes, 100% deductible with S/C-corp; IRS Notice 2011-72 provides documentation. "I have a question about vehicle deductions. There are two methods available, the standard mileage deduction and the actual expense method. Can I use the actual method to claim all the depreciation in one year, then switch to the standard mileage deduction in subsequent years. If this is possible, how does it work? Assume the vehicle is used a hundred percent for business purposes." - Three methods exist; business-owned vehicles allow 100% bonus depreciation benefits. "Since you're in Vegas, you might know the answer to this one. My friend won a reportable jackpot, mid five figures, and he was wondering if he could deduct the travel lodging expenses just as he might do if he made this money as a business deal or future excursions to Sin City to try and extend his winnings." - Only if professional gambler with business intent and meticulous records.

SEASON 4 EPISODE 2: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) SPECIAL COMMENT: The United States of America does not have a functioning government. The Trump Dictatorship and the Library of Congress – Congress which Mike Johnson runs via a porn app – DELETED part of the official online edition of the Constitution – the part that limits the suspension of Habeas Corpus and bans presidents accepting foreign bribes. The Library says it was a coding error and would be fixed soon…ish. Yeah, the coding in Trump’s DNA. The White House had to DENY that the White House Chief of Staff was to meet last night with the Vice President, the Attorney General, the Deputy Attorney General, and the FBI Director to discuss what to DO about the Trump/Epstein cover-up scandal, and what to do WITH the RECORDING of the Deputy Attorney General’s two days’ of bargaining with a convicted pedophile and child sex trafficker… and nobody seemed to notice that the headline was that WHATEVER the Chief of Staff, A-G, Deputy A-G, and FBI Director WERE meeting with the Vice President ABOUT… the PRESIDENT WASN’T GOING TO BE THERE. There is no competent executive authority, no congressional or senate oversight, no reliable judiciary. The United States of America does NOT NOW have a functioning government. The nominal president has spent the last few days making up economic statistics and poll numbers and threatening his predecessors with prosecution for imaginary crimes punishable by death while wandering around the roof of the White House, and phoning in to a business network with racist moronity the content of which is just this side of a 19th century minstrel show, or continuing to get more and more in bed, figuratively, with a convicted pedophile and child sex trafficker, in a scheme to cover-up her crimes, her late partner crimes, and whatever the president’s role was or was not… in them. And the first and seventh people in the line of presidential succession were going to have dinner with their Epstein expert who just met with Gulaine Maxwell and the head of the FBI and the woman who RUNS the White House but NOT the president and you know it almost doesn’t MATTER if they were meeting to try to figure out what to do about Trumpsteen or not. By 3:14 PM Eastern the Library of Congress said Sections 8, 9 and 10 of the 1st Article were back online so, shrug emoji, I guess there are limits on emoluments and suspending Habeas Corpus… for now. Fifteen minutes later, however, there were still huge swaths of all three sections missing from the official online version of the Constitution. But coding. And so what, it’s just the ONLINE version, what’s the difference? Trump just fired the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics because she wouldn’t delete the official online jobs numbers and will soon find someone to post fabricated numbers online which will then be accepted as real – and official – because they’re ONLINE. There is no functioning government, just a mediocre Public Relations firm. Understaffed. Trying to sell Edsels, Google Glasses, New Coke, and fascism. B-Block (40:00) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Acting NASA "Director" Duffy wants to put nukes on the moon, even though that was the plot of the re-make of the movie "The Time Machine" in which nukes on the moon destroyed the moon and rendered earth uninhabitable good call reality TV boy. The New York Times won't stop trying to make Harvard-Fetch happen. And the Trump Council on Lack of Fitness, the one Super Bowl star Saquon Barkley turned down membership on? The Council announced he accepted. C-Block (55:00) THURSDAYS WITH THURBER: Of all his great stories, the one that might have been the most likely to have been written in order to be performed aloud, I humbly offer you this week: "The Night The Bed Fell."
