Season 1
8 episodes
- 1. Before Abraham Was: Premortal SaviorWho was Jesus before He was born? The idea of Christ's premortal existence is not new to believers; however, many scholars shun such a notion. Latter-day Saint scholars, who affirm Jesus' premortal existence, proclaim the reality of His foreordination in the pre-earth life as the Messiah, His role in the War in Heaven and the Creation, and His pivotal place as the Jehovah of the Old Testament.CC45minJan 3, 2010
- 2. Knowest Thou the Condescension of God?: Birth and ChildhoodThough many deny the miraculous birth of Jesus Christ, Latter-day Saint scholars search the differing biblical accounts of the birth of Jesus found in Matthew and Luke to conclude that Christ's birth was, in fact, divine. The scholars explore the traditions surrounding the sojourn in Egypt as well as the scripture and traditions surrounding Jesus' childhood and youth.CC45minJan 10, 2010
