Thank you for this, I have a 12 year old nephew who’s family aren’t members. He’s taken the missionary lessons and wants to be baptized and to go to church but they won’t allow him to. He’s always asking how he can learn more about the gospel so this will be perfect for him 😊
When you show how Jesus paralleled His life with Moses and Israel leaving Egypt also the thought and work They did and are still doing shows the intense love they have for us His sheep-it is never ending, they keep on cheering us on! love you guys
Oh, Taylor and Tyler, how happy we are each week to listen to you. Your teaching style together, the richness of your examples, your backgrounds and knowledge, your very real, pertinent examples …..we thank you from our hearts. We are 79 and 75, but you have such clarity. We learn new things, and enjoy new insights. You both and the production staff are a great blessing. 💕
Thank, you very much for your teachings. They are the light that the Lord wants us to have so we can come to Him each day. May He bless you and your families.
This reminds me of missionary companionship. Thanks for sharing the light. I taught Seminary yesterday from Mathew 5:13-16, Mathew 5:14-16. It went great 👍🏽 thanks.
Wow, I've never had it explained like this in all my years in the gospel. I never understood the b-attitudes thank you a million times Taylor and Tyler I think you guys are amazing, thank for blessing my life with your time and effort and most importantly for sharing your gift of teaching. Love you guys, this channel is my life line, a priceless blessing that helps me understand the scriptures like I never have before. You make studying the scriptures a joy, you are sharing your light and helping me see God's light.
Great lesson! I’ve always loved the Sermon on the Mount since I was a child with our huge family Bible on my lap. It’s great to learn new things; the comparison of the first 5 books of the OT to the first 5 chapters of Matthew. That was so cool! I love how you both teach and compliment each other. It has helped me so much these past few years. Bless your hearts. 🥰
I love how you teach the Beatitudes! Teaching the beatitudes as a pathway to become more like Jesus Christ is so powerful and gives us so much hope. When Taylor said that "Learning if Joy", I was reminded of something the spirit taught me a few years ago. God's plan of salvation has been described as a "plan of progression" and a "plan of happiness". If we apply the transitive property of equality which says if a=c and b=c, then a=b, we could say that progression = happiness. We can find joy in the journey by just making progress each week. Even when progress feels like baby steps, progress (or learning) as Taylor said will bring us joy. When Tyler was teaching the Beatitudes as steps of progression, I was counting and wondering to myself if there would be 7 steps (since 7 in Hebrew means completion), but there were 8 steps (8 in Hebrew means a new beginning). The connection between step 8 of being "persecuted for righteousness' sake" and step 1 of being "poor in spirit" is a profound one in the context of a new beginning. And then, to connect it with the same blessing "for theirs is the kingdom of heaven" is mind blowing. It is an upward spiral!! I can't help but think of a musical scale with the first seven tones leading to the eight tone which is in essence back to home, only an octave higher. I love the beauty and harmony of the gospel!! Thanks for teaching this beautiful lesson!
You two are abundantly blessing me and my husband. And not just by your wonderful lessons. Because of your lessons, I feel even closer to the Savior, I love Him more, and I feel I’m gaining insight that helps me to love the scriptures even more. But also, you are instruments in the hands of the Lord as you are demonstrating love and respect for each other. Sometimes I well up with appreciation for how you work together in these lessons, how you treat each other. It is evident that both of you appreciate each other and know that the lessons require both of you. Know that you are loved. 😍
Brothers Taylor and Tyler, "my boots are on the ground!" Thank you for your suggestions and lesson on how to live the Beatitudes. That made so much sense to me and I am setting my goals and will be on my knees. I also am going to take a long look in the mirror. You two are loved and so appreciated.
I whole heartedly agree with so many of the comments shared. I have to add that I always look forward to Taylor’s “Spread Light and Goodness”. When the episode ends without him saying that, I feel sad. It’s a unique mantra that has really uplifted me. I appreciate everyone who works together on Scripture Central. You’ve been such a huge blessing in my life. Thank you for loving and sharing the scriptures and Spreading Light and Goodness 💜
Mosiah 27: 36 'And thus they were instruments in the hands of God in bringing many to the knowledge of the truth, yea, to the knowledge of their Redeemer. Thank you Lord!
Never in my life have I ever made a personal connection to all the beatitudes at one time! My spiritual muscles are flexing right now & my “boots are on the ground”!! Thank you both ❤
I was raised in a Bible only church. We had so limited information. No prophet nothing but a Bible. The B attitudes were so precious to me it taught me how to act and think. I read them over and over because I knew they would teach me how to be like Jesus. I loved them so much. Sometimes less information is so much more.
When I watch this Episode ,I was smiling ,Im almost 69 never been too emotional but there I am happy from what I learned from these 2 men THANK YOU ,I hoped to go to Temple Square in this year ,if there was a study group like in College I would love to talk this lesssen over Mar
Your teaching flows so well and is so complementary, I love and appreciate your insights each week as part of my Come Follow Me study. Thank you very much!!
Loved your explanations and graphics - I copied your steps then paused the video when you said that the world does the opposite - I stepped down each point and yes - the world truly does use the opposite of Christ's teachings. This helps me to understand and be wiser when dealing with others who are not followers of Christ or religious/moral; I will use this to perceive their methods and intentions and not get caught up in their vicious games. Some people love to mess with those of us who won't join in an argument and keep attacking to break us, I work with people like this - I can see clearly where they are heading and where they are coming from. Won't change any situation other than help me feel less attacked knowing that for sure, this is not God's ways.
Another video with great insights. Thank you brethren for teaching us. Thanks also to the team at Scripture Central for your work to make these videos keep coming to us.
You direction of travel in relation to God is far more important than your current location, because movement on the path is inevitable, but direction is a matter of choice.
I had trouble with the beatitudes when I was younger also. This episode is just brilliant and I'm going to listen a few times to mine as much gold as I can! And when Taylor explained the meaning of Mormon i felt my heart expand even more - how amazing is our God. God bless you both. Love from the land down under 🇦🇺
I love the steps of the Beatitudes leading us upwards. In my house I have a railing beside my stairs. Now that I’m 80 years old I need that railing more and more. I think that railing is like the iron rod and I need to hold onto the words of God found in the scriptures in order to get to the top of the staircase.
I’ve taken your “staircase” here and used it as a note catcher while reading a recent conference talk from Elder Sitati Oct 2022 and added more notes from that talk. It was so powerful! It was so nice to meet you Bro Tyler.
I'm beginning to pray for you so you are healthy, faithful to follow Jesuschrist in order to continue providing us with your wonderful lessons and teaching us how to better follow Our Lord and Redeemer. I feel a great fraternal love for both of you!🤗🤗
Really nice job! Thank you so much for your humble and direct approach to these teachings. Learned so much from your explanations and appreciated the depth of your study. Thanks again.
Soooooo soooooo good!!❤ Love how you present such sacred messages from the scriptures ❤❤ Always feel closer to the Spirit when studying with both of you ❤🙏👍❤
Me Too! However I am unable to find any source material that links Mor Mon to the definition provided, maybe they can share where that definition comes from
Amazing lesson again, the lessons are uplifting and edifying. I leave with a better understanding of what is being taught. Thank you both for the time a effort you both put into these lessons.
Perfection in Christ is a commitment to be His disciple. It is sufficient to be inwardly and outwardly doing your best to be like Christ. The peace and joy a Christian should embrace is that right this instance wherever I am at I am perfect . As I walk and humbly learn to better walk in His way.
How profoundly thankful I am: for your knwolage, comitment, sacrifice, love and sensitibity; to share, the gaspel of our Savior. If we could have you translated to another languages; would do wonders also, to so many others. YOU ARE LOVED BACK!
Thank you so much for your so much needed knowledge and insight. I really adore your stair way that leads to PERFECTION and of course, it’s an everyday practice - and process to continue on. Fa’afetai tele lava (thank you very much) in Samoan.
Another excellent lesson! Can’t thank you enough for putting these together. Appreciate the translation on the B attitudes and putting them into context I can understand. I tend to take things literally but I knew these had to be different so they just became words on the page until you turned them into “ah-Ha!” moments. Thanks again and know you that YOU are loved as you continue to spread light and goodness. Bless you and yours.
The thought I am left with at the end of part 1 is the beatitudes are NOT platitudes. I appreciate your description of them as a learning process for me. I appreciate how you connect them to the Book of Mormon. To me they also evoke Micah 6:8. Also the parallel between Matthew 1-5 and the Torah was new and exciting to me.
Thank you both so much for sharing your insights with all of us! Always looking forward to your lessons! Thank you both for your time and effort to teach!
Thank you, Brethren. I have watched this wonderful presentation several times. I found it challenging to follow at first. This is a presentation I have stopped and started several times, trying to get something out of it with each attempt. I realized my attention and thoughts were, and still are, on the climatic events our country is dealing with at present. It is such a beautiful comfort to come here and hear the word of God. This channel is truly a place of hope, restoration, and peace. I love what was said about upgrades on the Lord's commandments. This part of the discussion resonated with me. I see how valuable that particular counsel is collectively and individually. I also love what was said about meekness. It's a characteristic I am still trying to develop. Still working on it, need lots of help from the Lord on that one. Thank you for teaching me more about the Saviour. It's always in the back of my mind that everything will be ok in these uncertain and unprecedented times with the Lord ❤️.
Thank you your insights! The Beatitudes are a step by step guide to progression. I think of them as: "The Developmental Stages of Godhood", kind of like the developmental stages in child psychology
Just listened to the first part and I love what you say about this (If don’t recognize that you have a need or that you lack something you are never going to progress! Know where you are and see where you need to be and Christ will help you in that journey!) That was a big take away for me! I was at that point in my life where I asked myself that exact same thing now I’m a member of Jesus Christ church because he met me where I was at and I knew and still know I need him to get me there all the way!
Love what you are doing! May I offer a suggestion that we are always complete and whole...we are enough in every moment. Would God suggest anything different? That doesn't negate additional improvement, learning, comprehension, and growth. But if we believe otherwise, no wonder the anxiety and self-judgement people of faith experience.
Mkay...has anyone else ever Googled the 613 laws of Moses (or mitzvot in Hebrew)? Even though Jesus Christ came and fulfilled the Law of Moses (same guy that gave the law to Moses) the vast majority of them are so practical, elementary I should say. Literally "our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ." I am going to mark each one of them in my Old Testament.
"Hurt" and "anger" are different. Hurt is feeling pain. Anger is a strong feeling of displeasure. We can't prevent hurt. You can't choose to not feel pain when cut, both physical and emotional. But you can discipline yourself to not express anger. Anger has to be controlled to maintain positive relationships with others. It is a loss of self-control. Anger is a selfish indulgence, a physiological arousal, that is often treated like an entitlement. Anger can make you feel as though you’re at the mercy of an unpredictable and powerful emotion, but you can learn how to control it. All that said, it is still important to take steps to resolve conflicts. Ignoring a conflict isn't the same as being at peace. Don't let resentment build. Attempt to sort it out.
With all the numbers of listeners I’m wondering how the Savior made it all audible for everyone to hear…(though I know that nothing’s impossible with Him).
Impure salt was also used on the slippery cobblestones roads during winter. Jerusalem can get low temperatures, and I didnt know that. Jesus probably had seen that when he made the analogy with the salt being trodden under foot of men.
He is what he thought. When situation came he just acted like he carcter was. Ele é o que Ele ensinou. Quando uma situação difícil aparecia pra Ele, então Ela agia exatamente de acordo com o Seu caráter!
Salt and pearls: I am a mechanical engineer. I grasp the spiritual lessons of the salt and pearls. But my technical mind demands to know what the literal story means to a farmer 2,000 years ago. Salt cannot lose its saltiness, but it can lose its savor/flavor. Those people 2,000 years ago did not have purified Morton's table salt like we do. They had sea salt. Sea salt contains minerals that add flavor to the salt. So how does sea salt lose its savor? By contamination with things that don't taste good. Even our modern table salt is avoided by chefs if it is iodized salt because iodine does not taste good. Now to the pearls: Why do the pigs attack? Domesticated swine don't attack unless provoked. So what is it about stepping on pearls that would agitate pigs? I have Googled this and haven't yet found a satisfactory answer. Here's my current best guess: The pearls get wedged between their hooves, causing pain, causing the attack. An alternate explanation: A common pig behavior is to gnaw on stones. Pearls are made of calcium carbonate. If you crush a pearl, what you have left is powdered chalk. So, if the pig thinks they are being fed but instead end up with a mouthful of chalk, maybe that would provoke an angry response? Any pig farmers out there that can shed light on this verse of scripture?
I'm sorry! I dislike being negative but you are covering some very wonderful information that is useful and necessary for "Becoming One with Christ" ;however, I ask wouldn't it greatly helpful for most of us. If you taught the "Process" for learning to do and be all those things? Thanks so much for your lessons! I've been following you for over 2 years now! God Bless!
Regarding Matthew 5:29-30, why is the right eye and the right hand that are specified? What is symbolic about the right hand or the right eye that are significant? I know we make covenants with our right hand, and we partake of the sacrament with our right hand, but I am just not able to complete the symbolism in my mind in these verses. Thank you!
In your channels is there a way that you could start a channel of teaching tips for the young men and women classes? The doctrine focus? I love your videos but it's hard to adapt them to the focus of the youth classes
I'm interested in a bit more information about the Egyptian roots of Mormon. I have some background with hieroglyphs. I see the "Mor" part, the "hoe" glyph ('mr' phonetically Gardiner's sign list U6) does mean love or beloved, but I can't find the Mon (mn?) glyph for enduring. Forever, repeatedly, eternity is the guinea fowl glpyh "nhh" (Gardiner's sign list G21). What glyph are you using for the mon or mn phoneme?
The mn sign is Y5. Apparently, it is an intransitive verb meaning to stick/to remain/to endure. See Wiktionary page, search for mn and then scroll down to Egyptian Etymology 1.
I've always noticed that Jesus said in the new testament His (Our) Father as perfect, with the invitation to join it, And in 3rd Nephi He included Himself as perfect, completed, finished... (re-inviting us to be like Him and Our Father) Wouldn't this imply that our Bible is lacking in Christ and His being sealed to an eternal companion? Why else would Elijah be with Moses on the Mount of Transfiguration? To restore to the Earth in Christ's time the sealing keys to the Apostles so that they could begin to preform the needed covenant with God to be sealed with your chosen companion?
In this weeks lesson it talks about a man not divorcing his wife except for fornication, but by modern definition, fornication is between unmarried people. Married people commit adultery. Is there something I am not getting here?
I hope you will clarify: It seems that you were advocating for actually physically removing one's eyes or hands if one tends to use these sinfully. There are troubled people out there who would actually do this...
Please let your production people know that your lighting is too bright. It washes out your faces and it's hard to see the white board. Your program is great!
We received a large number of complaints at the beginning of the year protesting how dark the background was, so in an effort to make things better we brightened up the videos (more than is professionally comfortable for us ;). We’ll be lightening up the set in then later videos and then you’ll see a realignment of exposure. Hope This helps! 😊
It’s funny that you talk about the Jews conflating culture with the law. I saw the same thing happen as a primary teacher and Living Scripture cartoons. The kids learned the embellished version and not the actual scripture story. You keep showing clips of “The Chosen”. People are going to think that embellishment is what really occurred. Please stop adding “The Chosen” clips to your lessons.

Thank you for this, I have a 12 year old nephew who’s family aren’t members. He’s taken the missionary lessons and wants to be baptized and to go to church but they won’t allow him to.
He’s always asking how he can learn more about the gospel so this will be perfect for him 😊
L
When you show how Jesus paralleled His life with Moses and Israel leaving Egypt also the thought and work They did and are still doing shows the intense love they have for us His sheep-it is never ending, they keep on cheering us on! love you guys
Thanks Stewart!
I so love these 2 who share the come follow me with many of us on a weekly basis. Thank you for your time and efforts 🙏
Oh, Taylor and Tyler, how happy we are each week to listen to you.

I am grateful for the way you guys present the lessons, thank you
Thank, you very much for your teachings. They are the light that the Lord wants us to have so we can come to Him each day. May He bless you and your families.
Thank you all.
This reminds me of missionary companionship. Thanks for sharing the light. I taught Seminary yesterday from Mathew 5:13-16, Mathew 5:14-16. It went great 👍🏽 thanks.
Please stay together doing this. We love it
I love these lessons! Thank you for your time in preparing.

Thank you your insights! The Beatitudes are a step by step guide to progression. I think of them as: "The Developmental Stages of Godhood", kind of like the developmental stages in child psychology
Dang I love these videos ❤
❤❤❤
Just listened to the first part and I love what you say about this (If don’t recognize that you have a need or that you lack something you are never going to progress!
Know where you are and see where you need to be and Christ will help you in that journey!)
That was a big take away for me! I was at that point in my life where I asked myself that exact same thing now I’m a member of Jesus Christ church because he met me where I was at and I knew and still know I need him to get me there all the way!
Awesome!!!
Love these videos ❤️💚💙💜🧡😍🙏
Thank you 😇🙏
EXCELLENT, EXCELLENT, EXCELLENT
Glad you like it!
Love what you are doing! May I offer a suggestion that we are always complete and whole...we are enough in every moment. Would God suggest anything different? That doesn't negate additional improvement, learning, comprehension, and growth. But if we believe otherwise, no wonder the anxiety and self-judgement people of faith experience.

How do you know you are pure in heart?
Mkay...has anyone else ever Googled the 613 laws of Moses (or mitzvot in Hebrew)? Even though Jesus Christ came and fulfilled the Law of Moses (same guy that gave the law to Moses) the vast majority of them are so practical, elementary I should say. Literally "our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ." I am going to mark each one of them in my Old Testament.
"Hurt" and "anger" are different. Hurt is feeling pain. Anger is a strong feeling of displeasure. We can't prevent hurt. You can't choose to not feel pain when cut, both physical and emotional. But you can discipline yourself to not express anger. Anger has to be controlled to maintain positive relationships with others. It is a loss of self-control. Anger is a selfish indulgence, a physiological arousal, that is often treated like an entitlement. Anger can make you feel as though you’re at the mercy of an unpredictable and powerful emotion, but you can learn how to control it. All that said, it is still important to take steps to resolve conflicts. Ignoring a conflict isn't the same as being at peace. Don't let resentment build. Attempt to sort it out.
With all the numbers of listeners I’m wondering how the Savior made it all audible for everyone to hear…(though I know that nothing’s impossible with Him).
We don't really know, but if you watch Season 3 Episode 7&8 of the Chosen, they present a plausible way that this could have happened.
@@scripturecentralofficial thank you Brothers

Impure salt was also used on the slippery cobblestones roads during winter. Jerusalem can get low temperatures, and I didnt know that. Jesus probably had seen that when he made the analogy with the salt being trodden under foot of men.
He is what he thought. When situation came he just acted like he carcter was.
Ele é o que Ele ensinou. Quando uma situação difícil aparecia pra Ele, então Ela agia exatamente de acordo com o Seu caráter!
I wish I knew the bit about staying with abuse when I was married because I turned the other cheek and allowed it to continue.
Taylor, where did you say the meaning of Mor- Mon ( meaning Love endures) come from? Please share reference/root? Thanks.
Where can I find the source of the word mormon mean enduring love? I know there was a article in Ensign in 1970s, but I couldn't find it.
Im curious. In a past video you mentioned the Septuagint. There are several versions. Which one do you prefer?
Salt and pearls: I am a mechanical engineer. I grasp the spiritual lessons of the salt and pearls. But my technical mind demands to know what the literal story means to a farmer 2,000 years ago.
Salt cannot lose its saltiness, but it can lose its savor/flavor. Those people 2,000 years ago did not have purified Morton's table salt like we do. They had sea salt. Sea salt contains minerals that add flavor to the salt. So how does sea salt lose its savor? By contamination with things that don't taste good. Even our modern table salt is avoided by chefs if it is iodized salt because iodine does not taste good.
Now to the pearls: Why do the pigs attack? Domesticated swine don't attack unless provoked. So what is it about stepping on pearls that would agitate pigs? I have Googled this and haven't yet found a satisfactory answer. Here's my current best guess: The pearls get wedged between their hooves, causing pain, causing the attack. An alternate explanation: A common pig behavior is to gnaw on stones. Pearls are made of calcium carbonate. If you crush a pearl, what you have left is powdered chalk. So, if the pig thinks they are being fed but instead end up with a mouthful of chalk, maybe that would provoke an angry response? Any pig farmers out there that can shed light on this verse of scripture?
I'm sorry! I dislike being negative but you are covering some very wonderful information that is useful and necessary for "Becoming One with Christ" ;however, I ask wouldn't it greatly helpful for most of us. If you taught the "Process" for learning to do and be all those things? Thanks so much for your lessons! I've been following you for over 2 years now! God Bless!
Regarding Matthew 5:29-30, why is the right eye and the right hand that are specified? What is symbolic about the right hand or the right eye that are significant? I know we make covenants with our right hand, and we partake of the sacrament with our right hand, but I am just not able to complete the symbolism in my mind in these verses. Thank you!
In your channels is there a way that you could start a channel of teaching tips for the young men and women classes? The doctrine focus? I love your videos but it's hard to adapt them to the focus of the youth classes
I'm interested in a bit more information about the Egyptian roots of Mormon. I have some background with hieroglyphs. I see the "Mor" part, the "hoe" glyph ('mr' phonetically Gardiner's sign list U6) does mean love or beloved, but I can't find the Mon (mn?) glyph for enduring. Forever, repeatedly, eternity is the guinea fowl glpyh "nhh" (Gardiner's sign list G21). What glyph are you using for the mon or mn phoneme?
The mn sign is Y5. Apparently, it is an intransitive verb meaning to stick/to remain/to endure. See Wiktionary page, search for mn and then scroll down to Egyptian Etymology 1.
I noticed that verses 18-20 were passed over can you help me understand these verses a bit more?
Matthew 5:17-20
I've always noticed that Jesus said in the new testament His (Our) Father as perfect, with the invitation to join it, And in 3rd Nephi He included Himself as perfect, completed, finished... (re-inviting us to be like Him and Our Father)
Wouldn't this imply that our Bible is lacking in Christ and His being sealed to an eternal companion?
Why else would Elijah be with Moses on the Mount of Transfiguration? To restore to the Earth in Christ's time the sealing keys to the Apostles so that they could begin to preform the needed covenant with God to be sealed with your chosen companion?
In this weeks lesson it talks about a man not divorcing his wife except for fornication, but by modern definition, fornication is between unmarried people. Married people commit adultery. Is there something I am not getting here?
I am confused about the 613 commandments you spoke of today that were given to Moses. Why do we only speak of ten. Where do I find all the others.
I hope you will clarify: It seems that you were advocating for actually physically removing one's eyes or hands if one tends to use these sinfully. There are troubled people out there who would actually do this...
Please let your production people know that your lighting is too bright. It washes out your faces and it's hard to see the white board. Your program is great!
We received a large number of complaints at the beginning of the year protesting how dark the background was, so in an effort to make things better we brightened up the videos (more than is professionally comfortable for us ;). We’ll be lightening up the set in then later videos and then you’ll see a realignment of exposure. Hope
This helps! 😊
confused why christ didnt include himself as perfect until post ascension .....and what that means as far as perfection
My understanding is that since the word means”complete “ and not just sinless, he had not completed what he came to do yet.
Hope that helps ❤
It’s funny that you talk about the Jews conflating culture with the law. I saw the same thing happen as a primary teacher and Living Scripture cartoons. The kids learned the embellished version and not the actual scripture story. You keep showing clips of “The Chosen”. People are going to think that embellishment is what really occurred. Please stop adding “The Chosen” clips to your lessons.
