My Brother’s Plan
PamelaGore
My brother and I are really close with each other. We usually go out of town with our parents. Since we only have each other (because we are the only children that our parents has), we see to it that we will have many happy memories with together. We have different likes and dislikes when it comes to having a fun time. He loves swimming and I don&r...

3 Nephi : 4
PoeticIntensity
This chapter is great. All I gotta say is, if you follow the counsel of the Lord, all will be well.
Oh, yeah, also - Zemnarihah had to have had a brain about the size of a peanut. Great way to get all of your people killed....

3 Nephi : 3
PoeticIntensity
Okay... So the past few chapters, I've been ragging on how wishy-washy the average human soul must be in order for signs of the Messiah's birth to be taken so lightly...
Well... This chapter leads me to believe that there were still quite a few believers who held true through all of the dissenting.
The part I liked most about this chapter...

3 Nephi : 2
PoeticIntensity
Ya know... I think these chapters are meant to teach us how frail the hearts of men are. Okay... Here's a good question.. How long did it take the Nephites to go from "seeing the sign of the birth of Jesus Christ" (this is *Christ* we're talking about here. *The Messiah*. How long did it take them from seeing that ...

So, we're starting 3rd Nephi. This should prove to be interesting.
The first thing I noticed was, again, how quickly (and stupidly) people make up excuses for that which is obviously true.
I imagine that living during the time all these miracle were happening (and increasing), would be such a gift. The signs and miracles profesied b...

This chapter was interesting. The first thing I noticed is that Samuel had some serious insight as to things of God. He prophesied of the destruction of the entire Nephite nation in the last chapter, and in this chapter, he details quite specifically, events which were to occur at both the birth and the death of Christ.

So, this chapter seems to be about the rise and fall of the people, and the rulers who ruled both in righteousness and wickedness.
It seems to mow through a genration with each verse that goes by - very quickly. I guess this chapter would be a good one to illustrate the Lord's prophets making promises, and then keeping them through la...

3 Nephi : 9 & 10

All I've gotta say is - don't get on the wrong side of God. The wrath of God shown in chapter 9 really is quite astounding.
Then, in chapter 10, it's almost as if God's words were pleading to the people... Almost as if God were remorseful of the things He had to do... Claiming, "If ye only had kept my commandments, these th...

Do Mormons Worship Christ?

To start things off, I’ve been doing a bit of research on Christianity due to a friend I have at my place of employment.

One of the main on...

That's true, and verse 1 of this chapter is Jesus' commandmen...
