Post by Joseph – The “Allegory of Zenos” as taught by my brother Jacob outlines various aspects of the history of the house of Israel from its beginning to the end of the world. Jacob uses the allegory to teach how those who reject Jesus Christ as their foundation stone can return and build on…
Zenos, Prophet of the Brass Plates
Post by Joseph – By the time many of you read this blog, you will have other prophetic writings available which preach of Christ and His mission. But for us now, we only have the writings of my brothers Nephi and Jacob and our Father Lehi and the writings on the Brass Plates. Therefore we…
All Prophets testify of Christ
Post by Jacob – I appreciate my brother Joseph’s kind words but they do not ease the frustrations we experience as we attempt to share in written word, what we teach and present to our people in spoken word. We minister in word – spoken word and then we strive to record that ministry as…

Mine Errand from the Lord
Post by Jacob – Before Nephi’s death, at his hand, my brother Joseph and I were consecrated priests and teachers of this people. We are magnifying our office unto the Lord, taking upon us the responsibility, answering the sins of the people upon our own heads if we do not teach them the word of…

Post by Ezekiel – As I have followed Nephi’s blog here in Babylon, I have been comforted to realize God’s actual fulfillment of promises He has made to His children. Let me share with you a little background and then what I know to be true. The Bible to be found in the latter days…
