Rebuke +Doctrine : How Alma Dealt with Corianton
August 11th, 2024 by G.
Alma’s approach with his wayward son is interesting. He doesn’t just teach doctrine alone. He doesn’t just rebuke alone.
He starts specific: identifies the sin, rebukes it, and discusses the consequences. He also discusses the specific doctrine. Fornication and harlotry is a great sin and will lead to damnation is not repented of. He then spirals out to more general doctrine about the resurrection, choice, and agency.
I liked it.
