Narcissists
There was a great research study that came out from Ohio State University in 2021 where they looked at over 430 studies and discovered that very consistently is narcissism associated with aggression. They concluded that individuals high in narcissism have “thin skins.” And while provocation makes a narcissist more aggressive, they found that the association…

A Women’s Board of Directors?
There is currently an aggressive push towards setting up what would appear to be a board of directors over women’s councils. At the head of the board is one woman who, through excessive written and verbal conversation, has implied her right to question any and every women’s council being held, including the ones she does…

Process Over Pedophiles
There are narcissists, egomaniacs, and aspiring souls who crave recognition because they’re hollow inside. There are sexual deviants. At least two men are in prison for sex crimes. I have heard allegations of at least one other man who may also represent a sexual threat to children. Our ranks include many who cannot be gathered…

Remembering Christ
This world, and everything in it, is in a constant state of decay. Entropy magnetizes darkness to itself and it’s a seemingly impossible battle to move forward in the opposite direction. From this comes fear of loss, pain, sorrow, and heartbreak. It’s fear that replaces the youthful illusion of immortality and gradually brings in the…

Why Psychology Is Infiltrating the Movement
Even when we try to live as a part of “Zion” in our generation, we find the techniques of Wall Street and Hollywood are adopted and adapted to market the views of “Zion.” We find that even as we act in good faith, seeking good ends, we still lapse into using the tools and techniques…

Self-Righteousness or Self-Awareness
Has the pendulum swung too far to the other end, resulting in hardened hearts, stubbornness, and pride? Is the lesser law being taught and accepted because the higher law that was taught for so many years is not being accepted into our hearts and practiced? Is there now an abundance of self-righteousness instead of self-awareness?…

Anonymity
One of the reasons for privacy is not that our actions are questionable, but because others’ judgement and intentions could be. Sometimes, a lack of respect for privacy can lead one to feel entitled to exposing others’ anonymity. Exposing anonymity is an interesting demand to have of someone else. In one aspect, anonymity becomes a…

Love Your Enemies
When separate, wisdom and knowledge are barren and unfruitful. When joined, they are infinite because they continue. Therefore, wisdom and knowledge cannot compete against each other because only together do they become complete and therefore are one (Glossary, Pg. 366). Nothing in this world is more desirable than acquiring wisdom—understanding and putting knowledge to wise…
