Seven Sages: Perfect in Lofty Wisdom
Hey, Hey! You guys, these podcasts are so interesting to me! I’ll admit, I don’t fully understand everything she is talking about, but it is fascinating. It’s hard to pick what episode to have you listen to. For this week I chose this one. I want you to pick out 3 things that you find interesting. I’ve linked the podcast page and the web page. Jack Logan has lots of cool things on her web page if you’re interested in pictures and more information.
Seven Sages: Perfect in Lofty Wisdom
🌍 World Religion Comparison
We now know what the different religions teach. Let’s dive a little deeper. I want you to lay out what each of these practices teach. We have talked about most of these. Now I want to know…What are the 10 commandments? What are the five pillars? Etc… What do we get if we follow these teachings?
Everyone should know what the 10 commandments are. We will talk briefly about this together in class.
Choose ONE of the other “paths” listed here. These are just some links I found to help you out. Try and find some other sources so you can get your facts straight. Whatever path you choose, I want you to compare it to what we believe in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. There are 3 links to help you with the comparison.
- Ten Commandments
- Five Pillars of Islam
- Eightfold Path (Buddhism)
- Dharma (Hinduism)
- Confucian virtue ethics
Then compare to:
📖 Scriptures
Look up these scriptures and mark them.
Optional: What are they about? What do they mean to you? Write down a quick thought about each scripture. Example: Mosiah 18:8-10 is about the covenant of baptism. I have made this covenant and I want to live it better by……
I’ll give vanbucks for each scripture that you have a little blurb about. Make it pretty if you want. It’s more fun that way!
Bible
Book of Mormon
🎤 General Conference Quote
This is an excellent talk given at the priesthood session. I would love for you to study it either by reading or listening to it, but again, this is optional. You will get vanbucks for it though!
President Russell M. Nelson (April 2019):
“Staying on the covenant path is the only path that leads to exaltation.”
