Post by Lehi – As we are now in the promised land, I desire to remind all those reading this blog of the great things the Lord has done for my family in bringing us out of Jerusalem. Although our rebellion on the waters could and should have been reason for us to have been…
Harsh and Glorious Promises made by Isaiah
Post by Sam – I guess writing a post about Nephi’s zest for Isaiah was a little premature because Nephi continued explaining what Isaiah’s preaching was all about. One of the things Isaiah said that really stood out to me was the promise from the Lord that all those that war against the house of…
Isaiah testified of our Savior
Post by Sam – I am going out on a limb here and you know that I love Nephi as much as any brother can love a brother. but I am going to try to make sense of something Nephi is teaching us. Now that we are in the Promised Land and Nephi has been…
More prophecy from the Plates of Brass
Post by Nephi – These many prophecies concerning the coming of and crucifixion of the Son of God and what would follow are found throughout the writings on the Plates of Brass.

Much Rudeness
Post by Nephi – I should probably use a different word than “rudeness” but I am running out of words that mean; “my brothers have offended God again, misbehaved, treated the family with contempt, practically killed family members, and lest they lose their very lives, repented and were forgiven.” The only difference in this next…
Putting forth into the sea
Post by Lehi – We have been so favored of the Lord. At the direction of the Lord, my sons have constructed a ship as unique in design as should be expected having been designed by God Himself. Once the ship was complete, the voice of the Lord came to me, telling me we should…
Curious Workmanship
Post by Nephi – The written word and my capacity with written words already put this post in jeopardy. What I want to stress is the pure joy there is in doing something exactly as the Lord directs. There is no surprise here. I look around and see Gods fantastic craftsmanship in this world He…
