Talk:Luke 9:51-13:35
Luke 10:25-37[edit]
OK, I did my first entry here. I'm not sure I got it right. I'm still not sure if I did the attribution to Welch correctly.
Can somebody give me feed back?

- Wwhitlock, this is great! Thanks. I made a couple of slight editing changes (click on the "diff" tab on the Recent changes pages to see exactly what changes I made). We don't have a real clear cut policy on quotes, so I think what you did was fine (Matthew might come and correct me here). This is also a timely addition since we'll be covering this in Sunday school in a few weeks. Hopefully I'll have a chance to look more carefully at the article and these passages soon, to build on what you've added here. --RobertC 16:46, 19 February 2007 (CET)
Hi Wwhitlock, I moved some things a bit more. There is a policy against quotations in the exegesis section. But we can accomplish something similar by referring to the related links section and putting the quote there. We have considered changing this policy. So far there hasn't been a need.
I really enjoyed the article. I particularly thought it was interesting to see Christ as playing the role of the Samaritan. That part makes a lot of sense to me. Welch cites John 8:48 which lends further weight to this reading. Thanks for the link. --Matthew Faulconer 21:55, 21 February 2007 (CET)
Luke 11:9: Ask, receive[edit]
Robert, aren't you treading on the boundaries of the temple? D&C 124:95 suggests that the endowment is, in part, a reception of the keys for a truer order of prayer through which this promise becomes a possibility. D. Michael Quinn wrote an article on the subject in BYU studies some time ago (when he was still at BYU), called something like "Latter-day Saint Prayer Circles." I think this gets into some complicated responses to this question, though: one must receive certain keys by which this promise becomes a reality, namely, the fullness of the Melchizedek priesthood, becoming a king and a priest, or in other words, having the sealing keys: to ask and receive. Hmm.... I'd be interested to hear some further thoughts on this. --Joe Spencer 17:09, 5 Dec 2006 (UTC)
