I’m watching from , Herriman, Utah. This morning I watched his UA-cam video with Greg Matson. “Yes, Eve was Beguiled”. I am excited to hear this one. I learn so much from Brother Porter
The Lords WILL works through us, he gives us gifts of righteousness, discernment, wisdom, knowledge and love, and by loving Him we become obedient to Him, but it is all due to His working through those who believe in the true biblical Jesus.
People viewing this should go watch it all get demolished by an actual Egyptologist who rubbishes the spurious ahistorical nonsense and motivated reasoning being spun here.
Why do you insist in being ignorant? Why don’t you study properly other cultures? Check with an Egyptologist before saying things that are just not true (not that the Egyptologists are objective when it comes to being politically correct about contemporary religions and main narratives 🙄). PS- Do you, too, have in your books, ‘prophecies against Egypt’? The Judeo- Christian religions wouldn’t even exist (Christianity is almost a carbon copy of the Osiridian mythology) had they not worked with stolen material from Ancient Egypt religions. To curse the culture from which you shamelessly stole is the most telling thing about them.
Good posts even from me your opposite but joined in dislike of porter Again he is an apologist and disgusting however I believe he has no credibility outside of Mormonism they need him to justify the investment of time and money they made into the cult but his lies are so far fetched only a cult member would believe him----- However I have only begun an investigation into Shabaka stone and I already smell something incorrect but I just heard about this from Porter a liar in my opinion
The church wants it both ways - a translation of the papyri then, when it is absolutely wrong, insist it doesn't matter. Odds are 99.9% that Abraham was illiterate since only priests could write at the time. It's silly to say, "We don't know how the BOA was translated" when we know exactly how it was done. Bought the scroll, tried to create an alphabet (utterly wrong) and then made it up. Not to mention it is 1400 years after Abraham lived. The BOA is JS at his best - far better than the BOM in terms of inventiveness, integration of ancient beliefs, daring (the whole "Abraham wrote it" nonsense). It's very important since it contains "the weird stuff" - uniquely Mormon ideas: many gods, progression, pre-existence, He took ideas from Zoroastrianism (pre-existence), pagan religions (many gods / progression), Along with D&C things like three kingdoms, baptism for the dead, etc these are what most people associate with the LDS.
Additionally, it is quite plainly obvious that Joseph Smith was utterly clueless about the Egyptian language as evidenced by the nonsensical gibberish when attempting to explain the structure and meaning of their hieroglyphic script.
Watching from safford, az. Love all of his videos. He's great at explaining things and it helps out a LOT when he has seemingly endless scriptures to help his point. Please keep up the good work.
Thank you, Emily. You asked if there is someone we love to listen to tell stories of Jesus... you, I love listening to you tell the stories of Jesus! ❤
Listening from Alaska….Several Years ago I was privileged to visit Egypt with a group from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. One thing that really remains with me is a statement made by our wonderful Egyptian guide…..”Your church teaches the very same doctrine that was taught in Ancient Egypt.”
Ancient Egypt taught that Jesus was Messiah, that Jews became Native Americans and god loved near Kobol?? You learn something new every day. I suggest notifying an Egyptologist since this is incredible.
I stead of being an accuser ready to stir up contention, why not ask what was meant by the statement and investigate the sources? By the way, "Kolob" is an how it is spelled.
We went to Holy Land/Egypt with Bruce and several LDS from Arizona in 2006 or the 2007…..He was an amazing guide….very knowledgeable. I will never forget the experience. Mary/Dale Giesting
I was in England with you. Great lecture. Thank you for doing this Mr. President. So glad the saints across the world understand also what we get to hear from Bro. Porter.
Think of it. You can do whatever you want, go anywhere, create whatever, have a sense of empathy, sympathy, love, inquisitiveness, logic, humor, etc. etc. You are a child of god. You are already one in embryo. You may have inherited your mother and father's physical traits but you have inherited God's spiritual attributes. (in varying degrees)
because of t his i too have begun a humble learning of Hebrew Alphabet. so much to learn so little time. Please come to beautiful South Africa. I can show you a foot print in a stone in a place i know of in Kwazulu Natal.

Listening from south Africa.... Just loving listening to Br Bruce :)
Love Brother Nibley and Bruce is not a whit behind Hugh - Love everything about this man and grab everything I can find -He is amazing
Where is the Book of Joseph now? Do we know?
The Lords WILL works through us, he gives us gifts of righteousness, discernment, wisdom, knowledge and love, and by loving Him we become obedient to Him, but it is all due to His working through those who believe in the true biblical Jesus.
Always fascinating to me each time i listen and watch and study. Thank you.

Can’t believe people fall for this stuff!! Please watch the review on this video by Dr Falk!
Wonderful. Thank you.

44:30 Is it, though? No cuneiform inscriptions?
33:20 Forgive my ignorance, but why exactly does a leader have to wear pants? What makes it so ‘inspired’? It is the testosterone, isn’t it?

@@user-wb9vz3dt5y Oh, you are my ‘opposite’? Don’t flatter yourself. 😄
I have that Very saying from just before I graduated from tech school. It's hanging up on my wall so I can see it every day 😍😊💕
Watching from Utah! Thank you for such a wonderful fireside. I love Brother Porter. Blessings from America!
I love this, thank you ❤
This guy has to lie about lies over and over. He doesn’t believe this stuff. He abandoned his own family in San Diego. Not a good human at all.
Wonderful talk. Thank you so much!

Thank you from Kansas
Love Brother Bruce. I was lucky enough to have been in the same ward as him. One smart and intelligent man. Arizona.
what a FRUITCAKE!!!!! blah blah blah
Joseph can tell you what it means, maybe not exactly what it says. That is what is most important anyway!! ❤

57:30 Joseph Campbell was an atheist, but not anymore because he has passed away. 😂😂😂😂
Listening from Australia
Thank you so much. This is so awesome and so much to learn.
Listening from Leavitt Alberta Canada
I attended an institute class of Bro. Porter's; it was a jaw-dropping experience, he is a wealth of knowledge. Thank you for what you do.
Knoxville Tennessee
Brother Porter has taught me that the scriptures are the best resource, and to try harder to immerse myself in them. It's been a good experience.
Thank you, Emily. You asked if there is someone we love to listen to tell stories of Jesus... you, I love listening to you tell the stories of Jesus! ❤
Watching from Okemos, Michigan.
Im listening from Idaho I got to attend several of his lectures on a cruise recently he is amazing ❤️
Michigan, USA … thank you for sharing this w/ us!
Is this the same Bruce Porter who taught seminary in California in 1988-89? and institute at Palomar LDS institute? If so, Hi!

@smb123211 typical anti mormon drivel. Clearly you're looking for a fight.
Within rmT Cosmology, there is nothing whatsoever therein that is taught that is akin to The Teachings of The Latter-Day Saints.

Royal Skousen from BYU thinks facsimiles should be dropped from the Book of Abraham. He accepts the Book of Abraham as given by revelation.
Concerning everything that was said in this presentation -- perhaps.
I will never attain godhood.

Easton, NY
Not with that attitude lol
As Our Prophet says, stay on the Covenant Path. And Think Celestial😊
Fascinating, well done
