Mosiah 10-11

What an amazing man Zeniff was.
He followed the Lords commands, and
prospered because of it. His people were
happy, well fed, and protected!!
You would think he would have
known that Noah would have
been such a ...... what's a good word?
JERK!!!
But, I am sure he was led by the
Lord!!! Not everyone can pass their
test right?
So Zeniff, grows old and
passes his reign onto Noah.
Who instantly taxes the people,
takes himself many concubines,
Builds every comfort for himself
that he can think of, fires all of his
Fathers priests and hires all new ones.
He totally let's this Authority go to his
head....although I can say it would be
really hard not to spoil myself with
all the finer things in life if I were rich.
But, I would not take advantage of
other people to get them!!!!
Abinidi tries to warn the people
that they have forgotten the Lord. That
they need to repent and go to the Lord
or he will deliver them into their enemies
hands. So what do they do when they hear this?
They get angry and want to kill Abinidi.
Gggggggggrrrrrrrrr!!!
So frustrating but, when you are living in
sin, it's hard to hear someone tell you
that you need to shape up.
I know that from experience!!!
