Hemlock Knots
Cracking the LDS restoration's toughest subjects through rational, balanced analysis of source material. We analyze and compare historical records as we untangle the issues, events, teachings, traditions and doctrines of the LDS restoration. In the end, we just want to know what happened.
The sound effects are priceless. 😄 I really appreciate the work being done here, and honestly, I wish my family could meet you guys in person and share knowledge with one another. My mom in law has been gathering history and spiritual testimonies for decades, and we all have been studying these things for a while. She has written and compiled books and books of information over many topics. I always believed JS was innocent of accusations, but I asked God for the truth, knowing that I had to accept the possibility that he was dishonest. God led me to Richard and Pamela Price’s books, information my mom in law has gathered, and then now the Hemlock Knots show and website. It’s very clear to me now which end is up, but I still want to learn more information in case I can help someone else one day. Looking forward to hearing more from you guys. I’ve been praying for truth seekers like you for a while now. God is definitely moving and people will be set free with the truths being revealed.
Hi Cyndi,
Thanks for the kind words. We’re open to meeting anyone and everyone from the community. Feel free to contact us and we can discuss the possibilities. We’re mostly in the Utah Wasatch front area.
I am fascinated with the discussion of the legitimacy of the doctrine of baptisms for the dead. I think you raise some important questions. I, likewise, question the practice of baptizing eight-year-olds with the notion that they are making a binding, lifelong covenant to the church. Eight-year-olds are incapable of making such a covenant. They are still little children. Heck, they can’t vote, drive a car, get married, drink alcohol, etc., and yet they can “choose” to be baptized? It doesn’t make sense. Do you have information on this subject?
