that Nephi received from God.

Was anyone else confused reading
this? I got it now, but I had to
read some verses like 6 times to
understand what was going on!!!
Some of the wording was difficult,
and it was really repetitive. I was
exhausted after reading these chapters.
----------
It started off really interesting to me.
It started off really interesting to me.
Speaking of all churches that take
men on a course that leads away from
God and his laws. Therefore, taking them
away from salvation in God's Kingdom.
How these people will try to drag
righteous men and women into captivity.

He saw a vision of Christopher Columbus
being led to the promised land. Cool!!!
Christoper Columbus said
"Our Lord unlocked my mind, sent me
upon the sea, and gave me fire for the
deed. Those who heard of my enterprise
called it foolish, mocked me, and laughed.
But, who can doubt that the Holy Ghost
inspired me?"
He saw many other come to the
promised land....all being led by the spirit.
He saw that these people brought a book
with them to this land. The Bible, and
how many plain and precious things
are taken away from the Bible.
That the great and abominable church
may pervert the ways of the Lord.
That the Bible is not enough.....many
people will stumble because of these
plain and precious things which have
been taken.
----------
Christ will appear to Nephites
descendants. He will give them the
fullness of the Gospel. That the world
would dwindle in unbelief and the
fullness of the Gospel would be lost.
But, it would come forth again unto the
Gentiles. "And, blessed are they who
shall seek to bring forth my Zion
in that day, for they shall have the
power of the Holy Ghost; and if they
shall endure to the end they shall be
lifted up at the last day, and shall be
saved in the everlasting kingdom
of the Lamb; and whoso shall publish
peace, yea, tidings of great joy,
how beautiful upon the mountains
shall they be."
----------
The Lord shows Nephi that the
Book of Mormon would
"...establish the truth of the first,
which are of the twelve apostles of
the Lamb, and shall make known
the plain and precious things which
have been taken away from them;
and shall make known to all
kindreds, tongues, and people, that
the Lamb of God is the Son of the
Eternal Father, and the Savior of
the world..."
The Book of Mormon is another
testament of Christ. It goes hand
in hand with the Bible. I know that
the Book of Mormon is true....
Although I have not read it
front to back consecutively, I
have felt, through the power
of the Holy Ghost that what I
have read is true. That Heavenly
Father and Christ live and love
each and every one of us. Just as
a Mother and Father love each of
their children he loves each of us.
They want to give us their
blessings, but we have work to do
first. We must build up Zion!!
So, let's get to work ;)
