→ Time Stamps: (00:00) The stories in Mosiah are not in chronological order. An important theme in the book of Mosiah is Noah blindness. (05:14) Noah blindness confuses us about who our true friends are.(20:36) King Benjamin’s address emphasizes the greatness of God.(25:23) Abinadi’s message is that Jesus will heal us.(27:07) Alma’s message is that God will forgive.(30:16) The whole book of Mosiah is a chiastic text. The apex focuses on Jesus Christ.(31:01) Abindadi teaches how Jesus is both the Father and the Son.(32:52) Jesus is the only way. Trials and suffering are part of the plan.(34:17) Multiple journeys and flashbacks contribute to the complexity of the text of Mosiah. (35:25) Zeniff sees the good in others. Lamanite blindness is explained.(36:05) The adversary stirs us up to anger so he can control us.(38:59) Don’t underestimate the power of your words.(39:24) Peer pressure, change your tactics, and God is mighty to deliver.(40:50) The Hebrew word Mosiah.(48:09) Jesus is the prevention, the cure, and the healing that comes when we seek Him.

0:20.0	Welcome to talking scripture. I'm Mike and I'm Bryce and today I'm really excited to talk
0:28.6	about Mosiah. Mosiah can be kind of tricky because there's all these journeys and the dates don't
0:36.6	line up and there's just so much stuff happening that I think sometimes it can be a little
0:42.0	bit confusing and so what I want to do today is talk to
0:44.7	Bryce about the structure of Mosiah and why why are we having these
0:49.2	flashbacks with time
