Thoughts on Scripture, Doctrine, and History John Stemmons

I am an avid and devoted student of the scriptures and history/biography of the Church of Jesus Christ and Latter-day Saints, I share the insights I have gained through diligent study over the course of a lifetime in my book THOUGHTS ON SCRIPTURE, DOCTRINE, AND HISTORY. Its thought-provoking insights include, but are not limited to, information on the following topics.-Interesting proofs of the Book of Mormon-Israel, Scattering and Gathering of-Earth: In the so-called "Goldilocks' Zone" where everything is exactly right for the creation of life. Also, is the history of the Earth a Chiasmus? The indication seems to suggest, "Yes!"-Evolution: What evidence do we have that the theory of evolution is wrong?-Garden of Gethsemane: One of the great blessings of the Restoration is to understand the Savior's experience in the Garden of Gethsemane which the Christian world does not comprehend. The only time Jesus mentions the suffering He endured was not on the cross, as painful as that was, but that which He experienced in Gethsemane, as recorded in D& C 19.-God Has A Body: There is great logic in the Bible that God has a body.-Hell: What is Hell like? What glorious destiny awaits most of those in Hell after they have been punished?-Justice: What part does Justice play in the Atonement of Jesus Christ?-Last Days: What may be the significance of the years 2022/2023 in the Last Days?-Prophecy: What do modern prophets have to say about what is coming?-Sacrament: There are many, many symbolisms listed for the Sacrament.-Satan: What is Satan like and what is his relationship with Sons of Perdition?-Sons of Perdition: What is a Son of Perdition? Will there be many or few? Are there Daughters of Perdition? What does D& C 88 have to say about Sons of Perdition, or for that matter, Section 76?-Spirit World: What is the Spirit World like?-Thoughts about Cain & Abel, Noah & Ham. Did descendants of Cain survive the Flood? A possible answer may surprise you.-A comparison of the battle plan of the Mongols with that of the Nephites and Gadianton Robbers. Would you like an insight into the future as given by early Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints "Mormon" leaders? Buy an e-book version of my book Thoughts On Scripture, Doctrine, And History and search the term prophecy. It is listed 28 times (with some duplication). There are more than 200 topics listed alphabetically, plus some observations on selected scriptures. Since there is no index, the search feature in the e-book version provides the best access. I use asterisks to help readers find the most important words and phrases in the book.
