3 Nephi : 18
PoeticIntensity
Sometimes I read the scriptures because doing so fills me with the Spirit. Today was one of those times. I need the spirit tonight.
This chapter is loaded with details on the Sacrament and serving the Sacrament in congregations.
Favorite verse was 32, "Nevertheless, ye shall not cast him out of your synagogues, or your places ...

3 Nephi : 17
PoeticIntensity
Wow... 3rd Nephi 17. This has been one of my top 5 all-time favorite scriptural chapters since I first read it when I was 14. I love it.
The first 6 verses, to me, envelop the love Christ has for us, and the appreciation He must feel when we show our grattitude toward Him. There were no words uttered by his audience, yet H...

3 Nephi : 16
PoeticIntensity
Wow, it's been a long time since I last studied my scriptures.
The first thing which caught my attention is the phrase, "if it so be that my people at Jerusalem, they who have seen me and been with me in my ministry, do not ask the Father in my name, that they may receive a knowledge of you by the Holy Ghost". I guess that...

Car Mods and Emissions

Interesting that in verse 7, the example he uses of an unrighteous king pretty much parallels what happened to the Nephites in the Land of Nephi under king Noah. Couldn't have been many years since the people of Limhi had come to join Zarahemla, anyway. I've never thought of that before.
Verse 13 is always a fun one. It's great ...
