The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints- a poem

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints
We believe other lands had visits from Christ.
They saw signs in the heavens, they knew His name.
He taught them, they felt His wounds, He dried their eyes.
The Book of Mormon testifies that He came.
We're Christians otherwise nicknamed “The Mormons”.
The Chur...

Ardour, Jack, Digital Mix Reset
PoeticIntensity
Since I began using Ardour to record music, (and more music), I've always managed to have the same problem crop up, year after year. The symptoms of this problem are annoying to say the least.
I'm running all my audio through an M-Audio 1010 digital interface and I use envy24control to monitor and adjust the channels via. software. I ...

Gotta Start Another Project....
PoeticIntensity
I'm going crazy in my life again. I'm kinda weird that way.
Things are going well and then I finish a project, or get sick of it, or something else. Heck, the whole "project" mentality I have is what started this whole "ilovemyjournal" thing (as well as ldscompanion.org). I also wrote and produced 17 very ama...

THis is dedicated to my son Shawn VanWagen who left on his mission in 2005 and that next week I started writing poetry. It has been a big part of my life since and has kept me very busy. Also, to President Hinckley and his challenge for the members to read the book of mormon. and to Bernice Hutchenson w...

Amber's Poem
pulupaki_famili
(poem)
One day along time ago,
Before the world began
A plan was given to each of us
It was placed in our willing hands
There were two parts to this plan
One was for all the world
The other plan was just for us
About our life and what was in store
This first plan included a Savior
Jesus Christ, our brother
He will come to earth...

Mosiah : 27

Reading the beginning of this chapter, it's interesting that Mosiah put laws into place which made voicing anything which could be interpreted as "persecutions" against the church, illegal - and it seemed to work. There was "peace" for a number of years due to that law. The church even began to grow and prosper more ...

It's chapters like these that get me thinking about the 2nd coming of Jesus Christ and the "end of the world". Reason is, is that this chapter happens just a few years before the 1st coming of Christ. For some reason I analyze these chapters to death, and each time I do, I find more things that seem to parallel what may (or ma...

It's quite obvious that this chapter is speaking to anyone and everyone (throughout all time) who lives on this land. Verses 9,10, and 12 are especially insightful.

I love that question. I never noticed outright that right after the Lord poses th...

Not much to write about on this chapter... Lots of backbiting, hatred, slaying of kin, destruction of entire civilizations due to war, living in righteousness and prospering because of it.

Not a bad chapter, but n...

Ya know, I sure am glad that Nephi wrote verse 22 of this chapter. In all of scripture, this is the only chapter which uses the word "flaxen" to describe the way Satan tempts us.
Flax is a fiber from a plant which is used to make linen. Linen isn't known for its strength.
Satan indeed does "lead us" with very ent...
