Post by Sam – We are now here in the promised land. As Nephi has recounted the trials and the great deliverance experienced by the people of Moses to our family throughout this our journey to our promised land, I don’t think any of us had any idea how promised a land could be. Though…

God does destroy the wicked.
Post by Nephi – I just got done posting about how our journey in the wilderness is so much like that of the children of Israel and Moses. I certainly hope the similarities of our journey ends there. I’ve been told by the Lord that the ship which we will certainly build, will carry us…
40 years in the wilderness? Moses had it tough!
Post by Nephi – It seems the children of Israel and their experience in the wilderness, is being replayed right before my eyes with my brothers and the sons of Ishmael. Even with a heavy heart I can’t refrain from reminding my brothers of Moses’ experience with the exodus from Egypt. First, the children of…
Gentiles to join my father’s seed
Post by Nephi – Following a very exhausting discussion with my brothers concerning the things my father saw in his dream, I feel the desire to clarify a few things. In the future the Gentiles will be instrumental in bringing the house of Israel out of captivity, to a knowledge of our Savior. If they…
I Will Still Praise Him
Post by Jeremiah – I find comfort in your righteousness Nephi and in that of your father. I have been in prison for much time since my betrayal by the hands of priests. At times I feel as though I will give up. I tell myself that I will no longer mention the name of…

Hello old friend
Post by Daniel – Nephi, I am relieved to hear you are out of the city and safe. May the Lord be as gracious to your family as he has been to my brothers and me. The Lord’s hand has surely been with us, for we have found much grace in Nebuchadnezzar’s sight. Even Jehoiachin…
Zoram – The Power of an Oath.
Post by Nephi – As the streets were deserted, I was more in shock to have just killed a man than in fear of being found out. As I mentioned, the streets in the middle of the night were not a place for a citizen to be wandering. At night, doors were bolted, windows were…
About Laban
Post by Nephi – I don’t plan on addressing Laban’s threats I just want to help you understand his rantings. Laban is typical of the well-known class of public official in this land. He is highly successful yet greatly to be pitied. Laban and the elders of the Jews are representatives and symbols of our…
Thanks for enhancing my wealth.
Post by Laban – I have mixed emotions. I on one hand wish to thank you Nephi and your brothers for traveling to the land of your foolish father’s inheritance and bringing to me his great treasure. It saved me and my servants considerable trouble. I also appreciate your keeping this blog for the world…
