Post by Nephi – Laban had made it very clear he was not going to give up the records merely for the asking. Laban’s anger and his attempt on Laman’s life made that fact pretty clear, and Laman didn’t hesitate to remind us of that as I tried to convince my brothers that we must…
I will go and do.
Post by Nephi – As I mentioned in my last post, I had a very sacred experience in speaking with the Lord, it was an experience never to be forgotten, yet an experience that I feel will change my life forever. I will probably post about it again sometime in the future. When I returned…
My heart being softened.
Post by Nephi – We have traveled for many days in the wilderness, all of us, including our animals are weary. Yet we have been preserved. My brothers continue to murmur against my father. But he does not give up. He spoke to them with power, he was filled with the spirit. He spoke so…
Our family leaves Jerusalem
Post by Nephi – I mentioned earlier that my father Lehi was warned in a dream to take his family and flee into the wilderness. I need to mention again that my father is a man of great faith and his obedience to God is top priority with him, regardless of cost. And as you…
Jerusalem did fall, but was not destroyed
Post by Nephi – Before continuing with my blog, I wish to clarify to you and my brothers about Babylon and King Nebuchadnezzar. Laman says the city will not fall. Let me tell you what happened and then you decide if the city will fall. Laman is correct that Assyria failed in conquering Jerusalem. However,…
The great city Jerusalem will not fall.
Post by Laman – This is Laman, Nephi’s oldest brother and I want to tell you our father has quite embarrassed our family with his constant proclamations about the wickedness of the great city Jerusalem. We all know Jerusalem will never fall. We proved that a few years ago when the city was invaded by…
An attempt on my father’s life
Post by Nephi – With the people of Jerusalem trying to kill my father, the Lord said to him in a dream: “Blessed art thou Lehi, because of the things which thou hast done; and because thou hast been faithful and declared unto this people the things which I commanded thee, behold, they seek to…
My Father’s Visions & Dreams
Post by Lehi – My father Lehi has seen and written countless things which he saw in visions and in dreams; and he has written down lots of the things that he prophesied and spoke to us his children, but I am not going to include all those things in my blog here. I will…
Carried away by the Spirit
Post by Lehi – I appreciate Nephi allowing me to share this experience with you. I have seen many things in visions and in dreams. I have written many of them along with prophesies I have shared with my family, but I won’t share them with you here in Nephi’s blog. I loved my people…
I am Nephi
Post by Nephi – I am starting this blog in the commencement of the first year of the reign of Zedekiah, king of Judah. We as a family have dwelt at Jerusalem most all of our lives. There have been many prophets that have come to our people, prophesying unto us that we must repent, or…
