The True Remnant

🌿 GEORGE WASHINGTON SAW THE STORM — NEPHI SAW THE CAUSE By The True Remnant For many years I heard occasional references to George Washington's famous vision at Valley Forge. Most people have heard of it. Few have studied it. And even fewer have asked what it might mean for our day. Whether every detail happened exactly as later accounts describe is a question historians can debate. But the message itself is worth pondering. Because the warning sounds remarkably similar to what Isaiah, Nephi, Moroni, and even the Nemenhah Records describe. And that is what caught my attention. Not the drama. Not the armies. Not the angels. The message. 📜 THE VISION The account tells of George Washington receiving a heavenly manifestation during the dark winter at Valley Forge. He was shown three great perils that would come upon America. The first peril was the Revolutionary War. The second peril was the Civil War. The third peril was a future conflict greater than either of the first two. A time...

 🪶 **THE ZION CHIASMUS** **How the Lamentation of Mehnipahsihts Reveals the Blueprint for Zion** 🔥 **A Pattern Hidden in Plain Sight** In the last blog we stepped back and looked at something fascinating in the **Book of Mormon**. When you zoom out far enough, the whole record seems to move toward a center moment — when the resurrected Savior appears to the people in **3 Nephi**. Everything before leads toward Christ. Everything after reflects how people respond to Him. That’s exactly how **chiasmus** works. But while studying the Nemenhah records, another pattern appeared. And this one may be even more direct. Because one of the records doesn’t just contain a chiasm… **The entire book itself appears to be a chiasm.** --- 📜 **The Lamentation of Mehnipahsihts** Inside the Nemenhah records there is a powerful writing called: **The Lamentation of Mehnipahsihts** It is written through the voice of a daughter of the people — a woman who watched her society collapse but still loved he...

  🌿 What I Know Now That I Didn't Know Then   The older I get, the less certain I become about many things. That may sound strange. When we're young, we assume age brings certainty. We imagine older people have everything figured out. We picture them sitting quietly because they already know all the answers. But life has taught me something different. The older I get, the more I realize how much I don't know. And strangely enough, that realization has brought me more peace than certainty ever did. If you and I were sitting together on the porch this evening, watching the sun sink behind the mountains, and you asked me what I know now that I didn't know then, these are some of the things I might tell you. 🌿 I Know That People Matter More Than Being Right When I was younger, I spent a lot of time trying to be right. I wanted the correct answers. The correct doctrines. The correct interpretations. The correct opinions. I still care about truth. In fact, I care about it d...

  🌿 No Poor Among Them Listen to the New Song of Zion:    No Poor Among Them The Blueprint of Zion Hello, my friends. It's me again... just the old man from the sticks. Lately I've been thinking about one little phrase that keeps appearing in sacred records. "There were no poor among them." Those six words may describe one of the greatest miracles ever accomplished on this earth. Not because everyone became wealthy. But because everyone became family. 🏡 Zion Isn't Built With Money Sometimes we imagine Zion as a magnificent city. Beautiful homes. Perfect government. Perfect organization. Perfect people. But when I read the scriptures, I see something much simpler. I see neighbors helping neighbors. Widows remembered. Children protected. The hungry fed. The lonely invited in. People stopping long enough to notice someone else. That is where Zion begins. ❤️ The Richest People on Earth The scriptures never say they became rich. They say: "There were no poor amo...

 🪶 **THE BIG CHIASMUS OF THE BOOK OF MORMON** **How the Entire Record Points to One Moment** 🔥 **A Thought That Wouldn’t Leave Me Alone** In the last post we talked about **chiasmus** — that ancient mirror pattern used by prophets and teachers. Once you start seeing it in scripture, something interesting happens. You begin noticing it everywhere. Not just in single verses. Not just in a chapter. Sometimes the **entire story** follows the same pattern. And that got me wondering about something. What if the **entire Book of Mormon** itself is structured like one giant chiasmus? What if the whole record moves toward a single center point? Well… when you step back and look at the timeline, something very interesting appears. --- 📜 **First, Let’s Remember What Chiasmus Looks Like** A simple chiasmus pattern works like this: A — Beginning B — Growth C — Trouble 🔥 **CENTER** C’ — Restoration B’ — Decline A’ — Ending The message moves inward to the center. Then the story mirrors outwar...

  🌸 The Mothers of Zion Listen to the New Song of Zion:    Mother's of Zion "Her children arise up, and call her blessed..." — Proverbs 31:28 Hello, my friends. It's me again... Just the old man from the sticks. Today I'd like to talk about some of the greatest builders of Zion. Most of them will never stand behind a pulpit. Most will never write a book. Many will never have their names remembered by history. Yet heaven knows every one of them. They are the mothers of Zion. 🌿 Before Zion Is Built... Before a city learns peace... A child learns kindness. Before a nation learns compassion... Someone teaches forgiveness around a kitchen table. Long before great leaders speak to crowds... A mother is quietly speaking to one little heart. That's where Zion begins. Not in a palace. Not in a council. But in a home. ❤️ The Quiet Miracles I've watched mothers my whole life. They somehow remember everyone's birthdays. They notice when someone is hurting befor...

🎵 Wednesday Music Reflection 🌿 Colors of the Wind — A Message We May Have Forgotten Every Wednesday afternoon I like to share a piece of music that has touched my heart. This week it is a beautiful orchestral performance of Colors of the Wind from Disney's Pocahontas. 🎶 Watch the performance here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yDYlVyMBZiM And while you're at it, don't miss this companion video: 🎥 The Nemenhah Records and Colors of the Wind 👉 Watch this video on YouTube – “The Nemenhah Records and Colors of the Wind” 🌬️ A Song That Sounds Familiar The first time I heard this song years ago, I thought it was simply beautiful music. Now, after studying the Nemenhah Records, I hear something more. I hear echoes of a truth that ancient peoples have been teaching for generations. "You think you own whatever land you land on..." What a profound statement. The Nemenhah teach that the earth is not ours. We were placed here as caretakers. Stewards. Gardeners. The m...
