Coming up in this episode on Follow Him.
Avram Shannon· Guest0:03
The word atone and atonement appears more times in Leviticus than the New Testament, the Book of Mormon, the Doctrine and Covenants, and the Pearl of Great Price combined. Atone and atonement, it's a priestly concept. It's what God is doing through sacrifice. When the Book of Mormon offers you to atone, it's basically always in temple contexts.
Hank Smith· Host0:31
[music] Hello, my friends. Welcome to another episode of Follow Him. My name is Hank Smith. I'm your host. I'm here with my co-host, John Bytheway, who does not bear any grudge and loves his neighbor as himself. John, I was reading in Leviticus, as one does. I ran across this verse, and John, that describes you. You're not a grudge holder. You love your neighbor.
John Bytheway· Co-host0:58
I'm doing a really quick mental inventory right now, Hank.
Hank Smith· Host1:02
[laughs] Good.
John Bytheway· Co-host1:02
I'll try to live up to that with all of the other adjectives you give me. You're, you're killing me.
Hank Smith· Host1:06
[laughs] I'm gonna come over and go door to door around your house and see if you actually do love your neighbor.
John Bytheway· Co-host1:11
[laughs] Good idea. [laughs] Just last night, my neighbor called, "What is going on in your backyard?" My brother-in-law came over and brought four dogs with him, and they were going crazy in my backyard.
Hank Smith· Host1:23
[laughs] [laughs] John, we are privileged and excited to have back with us
