Ether : 7
PoeticIntensity
So... Sometimes I feel like I write things here that could get me into trouble, but I figure, if this is what I really think, and I'm sincere about it, then right or wrong, the truth will eventually come out. Many times, I've thought one thing, and then upon further studying and prayer, have found out I was wrong ... and I'm okay ...

Ether : 6
PoeticIntensity
Interesting how verse 3 is pretty much an exact parallel with the light of Christ in our lives.
Verse 4 is yet another example of taking a pretty huge risk in the name of God. Getting into ships, the likes of which none of them had ever seen before, being built by the blueprints of God. Closing the doors, with all your family inside, ...

PDFTK - Generate Issues
PoeticIntensity
So, I've been working on this PDF project for awhile, and I think it might be beneficial for me to add some notes which were somewhat elusive on the net.
The FDF file which is generated by PDFTK generate is encoded in UTF-16 character set - and is very hard to work with. I found this script which solves the problem, and allows the FD...

Ether : 5
PoeticIntensity
So... To be honest, this chapter is kind of confusing. Verse 1 and 2 is like Moroni is talking directly to Joseph Smith, due to his referencing the ability to "translate". That in itself is kind of cool. I've often thought what it must have been like to be Joseph Smith receiving the plates and translating when he gets to...

So, before I even begin reading this chapter, I've gotta say that this is one of those chapters which is seriously deep in doctrine. I could probably spend the better portion of 2 or 3 days studying this one. That said, I don't have much time to spend now, so I'll get as far as I can.
Verse 1 : An "exceedingly high mountai...

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