My Brother’s Plan
PamelaGore
My brother and I are really close with each other. We usually go out of town with our parents. Since we only have each other (because we are the only children that our parents has), we see to it that we will have many happy memories with together. We have different likes and dislikes when it comes to having a fun time. He loves swimming and I don&r...

This chapter is great. All I gotta say is, if you follow the counsel of the Lord, all will be well.
Oh, yeah, also - Zemnarihah had to have had a brain about the size of a peanut. Great way to get all of your people killed....

3 Nephi : 3
PoeticIntensity
Okay... So the past few chapters, I've been ragging on how wishy-washy the average human soul must be in order for signs of the Messiah's birth to be taken so lightly...
Well... This chapter leads me to believe that there were still quite a few believers who held true through all of the dissenting.
The part I liked most about this chapter...

3 Nephi : 2
PoeticIntensity
Ya know... I think these chapters are meant to teach us how frail the hearts of men are. Okay... Here's a good question.. How long did it take the Nephites to go from "seeing the sign of the birth of Jesus Christ" (this is *Christ* we're talking about here. *The Messiah*. How long did it take them from seeing that ...

3 Nephi : 1

So, we're starting 3rd Nephi. This should prove to be interesting.
The first thing I noticed was, again, how quickly (and stupidly) people make up excuses for that which is obviously true.
I imagine that living during the time all these miracle were happening (and increasing), would be such a gift. The signs and miracles profesied b...

I'm always slightly dumbfounded while pondering on the things that wicked men come up with to justify the signs given by prophets...

Very interesting that the word "hate" is used in this context. Very interesting, indeed. I'm not quite sure what to make of it, but it's quite interesting there were no other words chosen. I find it difficult to associate the word "hate" with God. I've gotta ponder on that one for a bit.

This chapter was interesting. The first thing I noticed is that Samuel had some serious insight as to things of God. He prophesied of the destruction of the entire Nephite nation in the last chapter, and in this chapter, he details quite specifically, events which were to occur at both the birth and the death of Christ. Interestin...

Within the first 5 verses of this chapter, I'm reminded again of how a person works who is truly interested in God's commandments.
Lehi was commanded of the Lord to have his sons return to Jerusalem to get the plates of brass from Laban.
Telling Laman and Lemuel would most certainly have some consequences in that they would automatically assu...

I'm not in the mood to write much, but since it's a goal, I'll keep it.
One thing I noticed and had a question about was why Nephi, Sariah, and Sam didn't know where to go in Lehi's dream. Verse 14 lays it out quite plainly.
The first thing that came to mind was Lehi was the leader of the family. He was the director and it was his d...

PoeticIntensity
All I've gotta say is - don't get on the wrong side of God. The wrath of God shown in chapter 9 really is quite astounding.
Then, in chapter 10, it's almost as if God's words were pleading to the people... Almost as if God were remorseful of the things He had to do... Claiming, "If ye only had kept my commandments, these th...
