Waking Up Zion — The Book

BABYLON FALLS….......... ZION RISES

Image
  BABYLON FALLS… ZION RISES The Last Days Pattern in the Nemenhah Records What Happens When a Society Places a Price on Everything There is a pattern repeated throughout scripture. Not just in the Bible. Not just in the Book of Mormon. But also in the Nemenhah Records. A society slowly drifts away from stewardship… away from sacred relationship… away from seeing life as holy… …and begins measuring everything by value, ownership, control, profit, efficiency, and money. At first, it looks successful. The cities grow. The markets expand. The buildings rise higher. Technology advances. The system becomes powerful outwardly. But inwardly? It becomes brittle. That is exactly the warning given in Chapter 10 of the Nemenhah Records concerning the “Foreign Strangers.”   THE BOOK OF MAYMIHTS AHKEHKT. Not necessarily foreigners by blood… …but a mindset. A way of thinking. A civilization built on valuation instead of consecration. THE WARNING OF CHAPTER 10 The Nemenhah says somethin...

Joy in the Storm

Image
  Joy in the Storm Listen to the NEW Song of Zion:    Joy in the Storm "The greatest peace I have ever found was discovering that the Savior doesn't wait for me at the end of the journey... He walks beside me through every storm." There was a time when I thought peace would come after the storm. After the questions were answered. After life settled down. After the trials finally ended. But the older I become, the more I realize that the Savior rarely removes every storm before giving us peace. Instead... He walks into the storm with us. That simple truth changed my life. The scriptures are filled with men and women who discovered this same pattern. Adam learned to trust after leaving the Garden. Enoch built Zion in a world filled with wickedness. Moses climbed the mountain while an entire nation struggled to believe. The disciples crossed stormy seas with the Savior sleeping nearby. The storm was never evidence that God had abandoned them. Often, it was the very place whe...

πŸ•Š️ Restored Gospel vs. Post-Joseph LDS Theology

Image
πŸ•Š️ Restored Gospel vs. Post-Joseph LDS Theology (Expanded, Scripture-Anchored Study) There was a time I didn’t question any of this. I believed the Restoration was complete. That everything lined up the way it was supposed to. But over time… Through scripture—especially the   Book of Mormon … And through records like the   Nemenhah Records … I started noticing something. Not loudly. Not critically. Just quietly. πŸ‘‰   Some things don’t match anymore. So I wrote this out… simple… so anyone can check it. πŸ”₯ 1. Baptism of the Holy Ghost Restored Gospel (Scriptural Pattern): A distinct, experiential   baptism of fire —not symbolic. πŸ“– 2 Nephi 31:13 “Then cometh a remission of your sins by fire and by the Holy Ghost.” πŸ“– 3 Nephi 9:20 “Ye shall offer for a sacrifice unto me a broken heart and a contrite spirit…” πŸ‘‰ This describes a   transforming event , not just a conferral. Nemenhah Insight: The Haymehnay   seals truth into the soul —it is felt, lived, and conf...

πŸ“ When Things Don’t Add Up… What Do We Do?

Image
πŸ“   When Things Don’t Add Up… What Do We Do? There was a time when I thought if I just studied enough… I’d be able to answer everything. Church history. Polygamy. Section 132. All of it. I thought if I could just figure it all out… then I’d finally feel settled. 🧭 But Something Changed Lately, I’ve been looking at things a little differently. I listened to a presentation about concubinage… And I’ll be honest—it raised real questions. Not emotional ones. Just honest ones. Because when you look at it historically… and then you read what Christ taught… and then you read Jacob in the Book of Mormon… Sometimes things don’t seem to line up clean. And the question comes: “What do I do with that?” 🌱 I Used to Think I Had to Solve It I used to think: πŸ‘‰ I need to defend everything or πŸ‘‰ I need to tear it down But now… I don’t feel that same pressure. 🧠 Because Here’s What I’m Starting to See There are things in history… There are things in records… There are things in traditions… πŸ‘‰ tha...

🎡 Wednesday Music Reflection 🌿 The Goodness of God

🎡 Wednesday Music Reflection 🌿 The Goodness of God Every Wednesday afternoon I like to share a piece of music that has touched my heart. This week it is a beautiful rendition of: 🎢 Goodness of God – Megan Tibbits https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ngijoHH9KPU Take a few minutes and listen to it before reading any further. Then come back. I'll wait. πŸ’§ Looking Back One thing happens when you get to be 74 years old. You start looking backward as much as you look forward. When you're young, you dream about where you're going. When you're older, you begin to see where you've been. And if you've walked with the Lord for very long, you start noticing something. He was there the whole time. The victories. The failures. The mistakes. The miracles. The mountains. The valleys. Looking back, I can see His hand in places where I couldn't see it at the time. The Goodness We Miss Sometimes we pray for blessings and don't recognize them when they come. We ask for stren...

πŸͺΆ The Circle Returns II

Image
πŸͺΆ The Circle Returns II Listen to the NEW Song of Zion:    The Circle Returns II "Grandmother smiled into the fire, and the stars filled up the sky..." Some truths are too deep to explain with a sermon. They must be lived. They must be watched. They must be felt. One of those truths is the sacred circle. The Nemenhah people have long taught that life moves in circles rather than straight lines. The sun rises in the east and returns again. The seasons continually turn. A seed falls into the earth, dies, and returns as a harvest. Water rises into the clouds only to fall again as rain. Nothing in the Creator's world is wasted. Everything returns. That same pattern is found in our own lives. Every act of kindness begins a circle. Every harsh word begins a circle. Every forgiveness... Every mercy... Every sacrifice... Every selfish act... Like ripples upon still water, they travel far beyond what we can see. Eventually, they return. This is not merely a law of nature. It is a...

πŸ•Š️ A Different Way — What We Saw in the Records

Image
  πŸ•Š️ A Different Way — What We Saw in the Records This last study we did… wasn’t just reading. It felt like seeing something clearly. And I want to write this down simple, so anyone can go back and check it for themselves. πŸ“– Where This Comes From These teachings come from: AYAHTKUHYAHT NEMENHAH The Book of Ordinances and Ceremonies πŸ‘‰   Chapter 3 — Blessings, Healing, Stewardship πŸ‘‰   Chapter 4 — Marriage, Sabbath, Community Worship This section is found in: πŸ“„   Volume 2 of the PDF (around pages 712–717) πŸͺΆ A Quick Note on the Record The Nemenhah Records present themselves as: πŸ‘‰ Ancient teachings πŸ‘‰ Passed down through generations πŸ‘‰ Preserved and translated later They’re not claiming to be invented. They’re claiming to be remembered. And like anything… you test it by what it produces. πŸ‘‰ Does it bring you closer to Christ? πŸ‘‰ Does it feel true? That’s the real test. πŸ•Š️ The Most Important Thing We Saw If I had to sum up the whole chapter in one line: πŸ‘‰ Everythi...

πŸͺΆ THE QUIET RISE OF ZION**

Image
 πŸͺΆ  THE QUIET RISE OF ZION** *How the Lord’s work returns to the earth* --- πŸ”₯ **A Thought as This Series Ends** Over the last many videos we’ve talked about a lot of things. We looked at: • chiasmus in the scriptures • the blueprint of Zion • the refuge • what destroys Zion • the sacred path • the Doctrine of Christ • Babylon and Zion • hearing the Savior’s voice And if you step back and look at all those pieces together, a simple picture begins to appear. The work of God almost never begins the way people expect. It rarely begins with great power. It rarely begins with large institutions. Most of the time… it begins quietly. --- πŸ“œ **The Prophets Saw This Pattern** The prophet **Isaiah** described the Lord’s work growing like something small that eventually blesses the whole earth. The prophet **Daniel** described the kingdom of God like a stone cut out of the mountain without hands that slowly fills the whole earth. > “The stone that smote the image became a great mount...
