Post by Nephihah – As the Chief Judge I’ve far too much responsibility keeping me occupied, than to attempt to follow our High Priest Alma around and write about his preaching to our people. I do from time to time receive his own record of the words he spoke. As you will clearly recognize, Alma is…
Every soul has cause to mourn.
Post by Nephihah In the first five years of the reign of judges as Amnor related, so much rebellion, death and destruction consumed our people, there was universal cause to mourn. We’ve lost so many of our love ones as well as our flocks and herds, our fields of grain which were trodden under foot…
The Fifth Year of the Reign of Judges – War and War
Post by Amnor – Spy turned warrior. This fifth year of the reign of judges has been a tough year. It started with apostasy, which led to civil unrest, then to civil war, then two wars with our enemy the Lamanites. Alma’s personal wounds are beginning to heal and our people’s wounds, with the grace of…
Alma led us against the Amlicites.
Post by Amnor – Alma’s spy – In my recent post you read how Alma destroyed Amlici and then faced the king of the Lamanites. What a coward. Cowards will always flee when faced with their own personal peril. That is just what this king did. He turned and ran. He commanded his guards to…
Sent to spy on the Amlicites
Post by Amnor – Nephite Spy With the greatest disgust in my fellow Nephites, I share with you my eyewitness account of our great civil war which not only sent tens of thousands of our people to their deaths, and destroyed families and whole cities, but without direct intervention from a merciful Father in Heaven…
Our first case of Priestcraft.

At age eighty-two, he lived to see his people delivered and established in a land of laws and order. After reigning thirty-three years, King Mosiah our last king and at…
Oh, let us be wise.
Post by Mosiah – Oh, let us be wise As I mentioned, the rightful heir to my throne has gone up to the land of Nephi. When I sent a proclamation throughout the land asking my people who they desired to be their new king, of course they wanted my son Aaron, who was not…
Declaring, publishing, and imparting good tidings.
Post by Mosiah – Until you experience the challenges I, king over Zarahemla and all the land round about, am currently charged by God to manage, you may never understand the decisions I’ve made. I may not even comprehend them all. I struggle to balance the feelings of my duty to family, to the people…
Alma – Being born of God
Post by Alma – I see Ammon attempted to relate our visit from his astonished view point. Permit me to relate this experience from a different viewpoint, a viewpoint of absolute horror and astonishing wonder. My father Alma and his priests, King Mosiah, and many others dedicated themselves to fasting and prayers for two…
Astonished is not the right word.
Post by Ammon – The word astonish doesn’t do this post justice. I wish we had a better word to express our response to what just happened. My three brothers and I, along with Alma, were numbered among the unbelievers by our parents and the priests and, well everybody belonging to the church. As I…
