The True Remnant

  🪶 WHAT I’M LEARNING ABOUT THE HOLY GHOST It’s just me again… the old man… still trying to figure things out one step at a time. For a long time, I heard people talk about the Holy Ghost. Lessons… talks… testimonies… But if I’m being honest… I didn’t really understand it. 🌿 THE QUESTION THAT WOULDN’T LEAVE I kept coming back to this: Is the Holy Ghost a person… or something happening inside me? Because sometimes it was taught like: “There’s a being standing next to you.” And other times… it felt like something was happening inside my own thoughts. That didn’t quite line up for me. So I stopped trying to repeat what I’d been told… and just started paying attention. 🕊️ WHAT I’M STARTING TO SEE Here’s the simplest way I can say it now: The Holy Ghost is how God reaches into us. Not just around us. Not just outside us. Inside us. 🌄 WHAT IT ACTUALLY FEELS LIKE It’s not loud. It’s not dramatic. It’s not usually a voice. It’s more like: • a clear thought that shows up without force •...

  🎵 Wednesday Music Reflection 🙏 Gratitude Every Wednesday afternoon I like to share a piece of music that has touched my heart. This week it is: 🎶 Gratitude – Megan Tibbits https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xjQQ_iQGCFU Take a few minutes and listen to the song first. Then come back. 💧 When Thank You Is Enough There comes a point in life when words begin to fail. Not because we have nothing to say. But because we have too much. How do you thank the Lord for a lifetime? How do you thank Him for every prayer He answered? For every prayer He answered differently than you expected? For every time He protected you when you didn't even know you were being protected? Sometimes all we can say is: "Thank You." Looking Back The older I get, the more I find myself looking backward. Not with regret. But with gratitude. I can see moments when the Lord guided me. Moments when He corrected me. Moments when He carried me. At the time, many of those experiences didn't make sense. So...

The Door Was Never Locked "Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest." — Matthew 11:28 Listen to the NEW Song of Zion:    The Door Was Never Locked When I was a young boy, I remember standing outside a door that I was convinced was locked. I waited. I looked around for someone with a key. Surely someone else had to let me in. Finally, someone smiled and said, "Bob... just turn the handle." The door had never been locked. Only my thinking was. I have wondered over the years if many of us spend our lives standing outside a spiritual door that our Father in Heaven never locked. We wait. We wonder. We question whether we are good enough. We ask ourselves if we have finally become worthy enough for God to receive us. Somewhere along the journey, many of us began believing that God's love had to be earned. That His presence had to be purchased. That His acceptance depended upon our performance. So we try harder. We compare ourselv...

 🪶   THE DOCTRINE OF CHRIST VS RELIGIOUS SYSTEMS** *Why the Savior’s path is always simpler than the systems built around it* --- 🔥 **Something the Savior Taught Very Clearly** As I’ve been studying the scriptures lately — the **Bible**, the **Book of Mormon**, and the **Nemenhah teachings** — one thing keeps becoming clearer. The teachings of Christ are actually **very simple**. But human beings tend to make things complicated. Over time, people build systems. Organizations. Structures. And sometimes those systems slowly drift away from the simple teachings Christ originally gave. --- 📜 **What the Savior Actually Taught** When Christ appeared to the people in the **Book of Mormon**, He explained His doctrine very plainly. He said: > “This is my doctrine… that the Father commandeth all men everywhere to repent and believe in me.” > — 3 Nephi 11:32 And then He added something very important: > “Whoso shall declare more or less than this… the same cometh of evil...

 Why Zion Often Appears at the Center   🧭   Opening Over the last several videos we’ve been looking at something called   chiasmus . Ancient mirror patterns that sometimes appear in sacred writings. We saw it in the story of Alma’s conversion. We saw hints of it in King Benjamin’s sermon. We talked about the appearance of Christ in 3 Nephi. And recently we looked at a much larger structure in the Nemenhah writings called   The Lamentation of Mehnipahsihts . And something interesting keeps appearing. The   center   of these structures often points to the most important spiritual message. 📜   The Center of Alma’s Story In Alma’s conversion story, the center moment is when he remembers the teachings about   Jesus Christ   and cries out for mercy. Everything in the story builds toward that moment. And everything afterward reflects the change that happens because of it. Christ sits at the center. 🌿   The Center of King Benjamin’s Serm...

  Lesson One Hahgohtl The Lehi of the Nemenhah Story Listen to the New Narration:   Hahgohtl - The Lehi of the Nemenhah Records 📚 Reading Assignment Primary Source Ayahtkuhyaht Nemenhah – Complete Text (Second Edition) The Book of Hahgohtl — Main Record This lesson focuses on Hahgohtl's introduction, the spiritual decline he witnessed, the building of the ships, and the beginning of the migration into the land northward. Related Scriptures • 1 Nephi 1–2 • Alma 63:5–8 • Helaman 3:3–16 🌿 Opening Thought "Every great journey begins long before the first step is taken. It begins when someone recognizes that the world around them is changing." Most members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints know the story of Lehi. He looked around his society and saw that his people were moving farther from God. While many dismissed the warnings, Lehi listened to the voice of the Lord. He gathered his family, preserved the sacred records, and began a journey that would shape ...

  🌅   The Command Is Clear From the Nemenhah record: “Look for such a place among the people of your day, my children, and do not be satisfied until you have found it.” —   The Book of Mahnti   13 This is not symbolic language. 👉 It is a direct instruction 👉 It is present-tense 👉 It requires action 🕊️   What “Such a Place” Actually Is The same chapter defines it: “The little flock… shall begin to have all things in common and shall begin again to build anew an Enduring Peace unto the Peacemaker.” — Mahnti 13:21 This matches the established Zion pattern across records: Acts 4:32   —   “Neither said any of them that ought of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common.” 4 Nephi 1:3   —   “There were no contentions… and they had all things common among them.” 👉 Therefore, “such a place” is defined by: All things in common No contention A people living in unity 🔥   This Is Not Institutional — It Is Relati...
