In this episode Kerry visits with H. Dean Garrett, who is an emeritus professor of Church History and Doctrine, a former member of the Mount Timpanogos Temple Presidency, and a former Mission President. Together they explore the historical background of Section 88 along with what it teaches about the Second Comforter and Eternal Life. They explore how this section is both about how to prepare to be holy enough for the temple by holding the School of the Prophets in the Lord's proscribed way -- which leads to holiness -- and how those same instructions should be applied to being in the temple, which will help us become more holy as we go through the temple. They also explore light and truth and the atoning sacrifice of Christ as best understood in a context of holiness and temples. They talk about how temples are necessary to help us get to where God wants us to be. They also look at how consecration is intertwined with temples and how missionary work is as well. They also look at Old Testament connections with the temple. They look at how temples are supposed to be schools of instruction. They look at teachings about solemn assemblies.
