Post by Nephi – I cannot think of doing justice to the topic of covenants. In future posts, I am certain there will be those who contribute to this blog and they will be more inspired than I. I do not know the meaning of all things, I do however know the Lord loves His…
What is a “covenant people?”
Post by Nephi – I worry that when Jacob and I and even Isaiah talk to and about you, our posterity, and how you are the covenant people, you suppose that you are more righteous than the Gentiles will be. Let me make this clear; unless you keep the commandments of God, you will all…
A Bible! A Bible! We have got a Bible.
Post by Nephi – As I and my various family members and distant friends contribute to this blog, I stand in amazement at the Lord’s mindfulness of His children in different parts of the world. Here we are in a new world, a world we call the promised land. We left the prophet Jeremiah in…
Ye shall be drunken but not with wine.
Post by Jacob – I know Nephi has shared a great deal of Isaiah’s writings in his blogs and it seems that the words of Isaiah repeat themselves as they foretell gatherings, apostasies, rebellions, scatterings, destructions, restorations and gatherings, both in ancient times and future times. As Nephi is about to share with you more of Isaiah’s writings,…
If they labor for money they shall perish.
Post by Nephi – In my last post I promised to elaborate on one of the closing statements I made there. ““The laborer in Zion shall labor for Zion, for if they labor for money they shall perish.” Why this particular statement? Though many of the things that I have shared deserve more attention, this…
I Prophecy of Christ!
Post by Nephi – In my previous post entitled “His Name will be Jesus Christ,” I declared; “And we talk of Christ, we rejoice in Christ, we preach of Christ, we prophesy of Christ, and we write according to our prophecies, that our children may know to what source they may look for a remission…
Cyrus to deliver God’s people
Post by Ezekiel – Though our friend Daniel and I are here in Babylon, we feel blessed to know of your doings in the promised land. Nephi, you and your brother Jacob have referred to Isaiah’s writings in many of your recent posts. We too love Isaiah’s writings. They are certainly great in the sight…
His name will be Jesus Christ
Post by Nephi – I recognize I have dedicated quite a number of posts to the writings of Isaiah and I recognize that many of his writings are hard for my people to understand. Hopefully, my various posts have helped you get a feel for the manner of prophesying among the Jews. I certainly have…
O Lucifer, son of the morning!
Post by Nephi – As you know, our family was commanded to leave Jerusalem, which, as you read in previous posts, was very challenging. Today as I am sharing with you many of the writings of Isaiah, as I study them in the Plates of Brass we took from Laban, his prophecies are in various…
I will be merciful unto my people, but the wicked shall perish.
Post by Nephi – Hopefully you will take the time to find Isaiah’s writings and study them word for word. As I continue to do so myself, I am moved by his understanding of his near future as well as the far distant future of the latter-days. As Isaiah prophesied about Babylon, his vision, consisting…
