The True Remnant

  🌿 The Records I Found After the Book of Mormon What the Nemenhah Records Have Taught Me About Christ, Zion, and the Holy Ghost By The True Remnant This morning I woke up with a simple question. What has really changed my life? Not what has interested me. Not what has occupied my time. Not what has sparked my curiosity. What has truly changed me? The answer came almost immediately. ✝️ Jesus Christ. Everything else is secondary. Everything. But as I sat thinking about that answer, another thought came. There is one collection of writings that has repeatedly pointed me back toward Him. The Nemenhah Records. Today I want to tell you why. Not to convince you. Not to argue. Not to prove anything. Just to share my journey. Pull up a chair on the porch for a few minutes. 📖 The Mystery of Hagoth One of the great mysteries in the Book of Mormon is a man named Hagoth. Most readers pass right over him. Yet his story has fascinated me for years. 📜 Alma 63:5 "And it came to pass that Hagot...

  The Pattern That Brings Down Civilizations 🕊️✍️ By The True Remnant   When you read the scriptures carefully, you begin to notice something that repeats over and over again. Not just in one book. Not just in one generation. But across entire civilizations. It’s a pattern. A cycle that rises and falls through history. And once you see it… you begin to recognize it everywhere. --- ## 📜 A Pattern Found in the Scriptures The scriptures often describe a repeating pattern among societies. It usually unfolds something like this: 1. People turn to God 2. They begin living righteous principles 3. Their society becomes strong and prosperous 4. Prosperity leads to pride 5. Pride leads to division and inequality 6. Prophets warn the people 7. The warnings are ignored 8. Conflict and collapse follow Then something remarkable happens. A small group humbles themselves and turns back to God. And the cycle begins again. --- ## ✨ The Pattern in the Book of Mormon This pattern appears again ...

  The Three Pillars of the Book of Mormon 🕊️✍️ By The True Remnant When you read the Book of Mormon slowly, something beautiful begins to appear. It’s not just a history of ancient people. It’s also a **map of the spiritual journey**. And interestingly, three powerful moments in the record stand like **pillars** holding up the entire message. These moments show: • the **path** • the **turning point** • the **destination** Let’s look at them. --- ## 📜 The First Pillar — Lehi’s Dream The first pillar appears early in the Book of Mormon in **1 Nephi chapter 8**. Lehi sees a vision of a **tree of life**. Around the tree are several important symbols: • a **straight and narrow path** • a **rod of iron** • a **mist of darkness** • a **great and spacious building** This dream becomes one of the most important symbolic teachings in the entire record. It shows the journey every soul walks. Some hold to the rod. Some get lost in the mist. Some listen to the voices in the great and spacious...

 Alma 36: The Gospel Hidden in a Mirror 🕊️✍️ By The True Remnant Ancient prophets used them to help people remember sacred teachings. But sometimes those patterns do more than help us remember. Sometimes they **reveal the message itself**. And one of the most beautiful examples of this appears in the Book of Mormon in **Alma chapter 36**. --- ## 📜 A Chapter Built Like a Mirror At first glance Alma 36 looks like a father simply telling his son about his conversion. But when you slow down and look carefully, something remarkable appears. The chapter is built like a **mirror**. Scholars call this pattern **chiasmus**. The ideas move toward a center point… and then they reverse. It looks something like this: A — Alma tells his son to keep the commandments B — Alma remembers his rebellion C — An angel confronts him D — Fear of destruction E — Deep sorrow for sin **CENTER — Alma remembers Jesus Christ** E′ — His sorrow turns to joy D′ — Fear turns to peace C′ — He begins teaching other...

 🎵 Listen First (recommended) Before you read, take a few minutes and listen to this song. Sit quietly if you can… and just let it feel simple again. 👉 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QC9LQjeAU8U 🕊️ My Jesus Loves Me What if the deepest truths are the simplest ones? Have you ever noticed… how the most powerful truths… are often the simplest ones? Not complicated. Not layered. Not something you have to figure out. Just… “My Jesus loves me.” 🌿 Why Do We Move Past This So Quickly? We learn it when we’re young. We sing it. We hear it. And then life gets more complicated. We start trying to understand everything. Explain everything. Prove everything. And somewhere along the way… do we forget the one thing that mattered most? 🪶 What If It Was Always This Simple? Not: “I understand everything.” Not: “I’ve figured it all out.” But simply: “He loves me.” What if that’s the foundation of everything? 🕊️ A Personal Question When was the last time you actually felt that? Not just believed...

  🪶 **What I’ve Learned This Past Year Walking With Jesus** I didn’t set out to do this. About a year ago, I just started writing… trying to understand things… trying to make sense of what I had always believed. One blog turned into another. And before I knew it, there were hundreds. But somewhere along the way… something changed. This stopped being about figuring things out. 👉 And it became about walking with Him. So I just want to write this simple. Not to teach. Not to prove anything. Just to share what I’ve actually learned. Maybe it helps someone. Maybe it doesn’t. But this is real for me. --- ## 🪶 **Hearing Him** I used to look everywhere else for answers… until I learned to be still. The Spirit speaks quieter than I expected—but clearer than anything else. Sometimes the problem isn’t that God isn’t speaking… it’s that I’m too loud inside. The more I listen inward, the less confusing things become. Hearing Him didn’t come from effort—it came from slowing down. --- ## 🪶 **...

🪶🔥 THE DAY CHIASM SHOOK MY TESTIMONY Hidden Sacred Patterns in the Book of Mormon There was a moment years ago that completely changed the way I looked at scripture. Not just the Bible. Not just the Book of Mormon. Scripture itself. And strangely enough… it happened because of a pattern. A sacred literary pattern called a chiasm . At the time, I was just a regular guy digging through the scriptures, trying to understand things better. I wasn’t a scholar. I wasn’t trying to impress anybody. I was simply reading carefully and asking questions. And one day… I stumbled onto Alma 36 in the Book of Mormon . At first I didn’t fully realize what I was looking at. But the more I studied it… the more it absolutely floored me. 🪶 ALMA 36 — THE CHAPTER THAT CHANGED EVERYTHING What shocked me about Alma 36 was this: It wasn’t just “kind of” poetic. It wasn’t vaguely symmetrical. It was almost verse-for-verse mirrored. The beginning matched the end. The next section matched another section. The ch...
