Latter-day Saints believe the U.S. Constitution was inspired of God. The president of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Dallin H. Oaks (@OaksDallinH), gave a landmark speech on defending the Constitution. Every American would benefit from listening to his words.

Yesterday’s anti Islamic regime rally in Toronto was absolutely massive

To be a special witness of the name of Jesus Christ as a member of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles is a special and sacred opportunity. I express my gratitude to our Heavenly Father and to His Beloved Son, our Savior.

The Ark as Floating Temple We usually tell the story of Noah’s ark as one that loans itself to a cute children’s zoo toys: a boat, a flood, some animals, a rainbow. When read carefully, especially looking for temple symbology, something much more profound emerges. Across Jewish, Christian, and modern Latter-day Saint thought, the ark looks a lot less like a ship and a lot more like a temple. Start with Genesis itself. God doesn’t just tell Noah to “build something.” He gives precise architectural instructions regarding length, width, height, levels, rooms, a single door. That should sound familiar to anyone who has read about the tabernacle or Solomon’s temple. Sacred space, in scripture, is revealed space. Then there’s the kaphar language I discussed in yesterday’s post. “Pitch it within and without with pitch” (Genesis 6:14). The Hebrew root is from the same word family used for atonement. The ark isn’t just sealed against water. It gets covered, ritually and symbolically, against chaos. As Gordon Wenham notes in his Word Biblical Commentary, Vol. 1: Genesis 1-15, this is cultic/ceremonial terminology, not shipbuilding or nautical discourse. Early readers picked up on this quickly. Philo of Alexandria described the ark as a microcosm of the ordered universe. Origen and Augustine both saw it as a sanctified place of salvation, what Augustine called a holy dwelling prepared by divine command (City of God, Book XV). By the Middle Ages, thinkers like Bede and Hugh of St. Victor were explicit in stating that the ark was the first divinely revealed sacred building, the ancestor of the tabernacle and the temple. Its dimensions reinforce that reading. The ark is long, not square, more like a journey than a destination. It’s narrow, with a single door that God Himself shuts (Genesis 7:16). It has three levels, echoing graded holiness and progression. Light comes from the window above, not from the sides. This is temple architecture, not nautical convenience. Latter-day Saint scholars, especially Hugh Nibley, lean into this pattern. Nibley described the ark as a mobile cosmic temple, preserving life, law, and covenant while the world outside collapses. The flood is de-creation, while the ark is the holy center that survives it (Teachings of the Pearl of Great Price). The three decks map naturally onto LDS temple ideas of progression and heaven. Salvation unfolds by degrees. Instruction happens inside sacred space while judgment rages outside. And most striking of all, the ark saves families, not just individuals. It preserves lineage, pairing, and continuity, what Latter-day Saints would immediately recognize as sealing logic and power. Restoration scripture sharpens the picture. Moses 8 portrays Noah as a preacher of righteousness rejected by a corrupt world. When society can no longer function as holy space, God creates an alternative, a temple that moves. Thus, the ark isn’t just about surviving the flood. It’s about how God always saves His people, through covenant, order, obedience, and sacred space. Put simply, when the world rejects the temple, God builds one that floats. #ComeFollowMe #SaintsOnX

Researcher Charles Small: “ We estimate that more than $100 billion in undocumented money has entered the United States from the Muslim Brotherhood over the past 20 years. $1 billion. $10 billion to Cornell. $1.3 billion, for example, to Texas A&M, where we identified 504 research projects in which intellectual property rights were granted to the Qatari regime. We flagged 58 projects with dual-use military implications and 13 with nuclear-related military implications. Less than two weeks after our second report, Texas A&M decided to close its campus in Qatar, and we have been calling on the American government, including the Department of Energy, to investigate what is going on. We also discovered $1 billion at Georgetown University, in the heart of Washington, D.C. $1 billion. They run one of the most important diplomatic training programs in the United States, if not the world. We are now seeing a second generation of intellectuals spreading this red-green alliance. Graduates in Europe and North America from elite universities are openly supporting and praising Hamas in the streets. Hamas is not only genocidal in its antisemitism and headquartered in Qatar, but it believes in the subjugation of women, the murder of gay people, and the destruction of democracy. And yet our political leaders, university leaders, and religious leaders continue to take money and do the dance with the Qataris. ”

Blatant Jew hatred and religious bias ironically on display at the hearing on religious liberty. It is a disgrace that someone on the White House Religious Freedom Committee would use her position to openly harass Jews. She should absolutely be removed.

In a speech on Tuesday at Brigham Young University (@BYU) — his first public address as President of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints — Dallin H. Oaks (@OaksDallinH) shared four ways to come closer to Jesus Christ. 1. Strengthen our faith in Him. 2. Increase our humility. 3. Seek help from others. 4. Be patient. “Whatever [your] doubts,” he said, "the way to overcome them is to get closer to our Savior Jesus Christ. Again and again, He has taught us that He is the way.” Visit the link below to read more: newsroom.churchofjesuschrist…

Elder Ulisses Soares of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints participated in the 7th annual Seminario Sudamericano (Latter-day Saint South American Seminar) on Friday, November 21, 2025, in Buenos Aires, Argentina, where he encouraged young professionals to be examples of Jesus Christ. “Today’s world needs integrity, empathy and moral clarity. These qualities grow where discipleship runs deep. That is why it is so important to reinforce the idea that, as disciples of Christ, we set an example not only in religious matters but in conduct, integrity, compassion and relationships — with people, with governments, with everyone in the world,” said Elder @Ulisses__Soares.

The State of Israel offers our deepest condolences to the members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints on the loss of President Russell M. Nelson @NelsonRussellM. In this time of great division, President Nelson encouraged all believers to be peacemakers and showed this through his work with interfaith leaders throughout his 40-year ministry. We take pride in Jerusalem being President Nelson’s first stop during his global tour in 2018. A friend of Israel and people of faith everywhere, may his memory be a blessing to Latter-day Saints throughout the world. @Israel @IsraelMFA

AJC’s national leadership mission to the @LDSChurch in Salt Lake City met this week with Elder Gary E. Stevenson of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles and General Authority Seventy Elder Matthew S. Holland. These periodic AJC engagements with the highest levels of the Church foster mutual understanding, affirm mutual commitments to bilateral cooperation, and offer opportunities to strategize in combating antisemitism and all forms of hate.

An 8-year-old girl and her mom were driving when they witnessed bikers crash. The mom, a nurse, rushed to help treat the injured. A year later, the girl set up a lemonade stand... This was the bikers' way of saying thank you
