Waking Up Zion — The Book

Waking Up Zion --- The Book

-
INTRODUCTION Not a Faith Crisis — A Truth Awakening This isn’t a book about walking away. It’s a book about walking deeper. Deeper into Jesus. Deeper into His voice, His light, and His truth. For years, I loved my faith. I still do. The Church gave me structure. It gave me good people. It taught me to honor prophets and scriptures. To seek the Holy Ghost. To follow Christ. But somewhere along the way, I started asking quiet questions— Not to tear down, but to understand more. Where is the power of the Book of Mormon? Where is the fire of the early Saints? Where is the Jesus who speaks face to face? This book isn’t here to fight the Church. It’s here to reach the hearts of those in it — Especially those who feel something is missing, but don’t yet have words for it. I believe God is still working. But I also believe He is calling many of His children out of comfort and into courage. Out of tradition and into truth. Out of a system and into a personal walk with His Son. If you love the C...

  🌿 Walking With Jesus When You’re Tired of Explaining Yourself (Companion Blog for Video 35) 📺   Companion Video 35 — Talk With Jesus Daily You can watch the video here: 👉   https://www.youtube.com/@TheTrueRemnant/videos If you haven’t watched the video yet, I suggest starting there. This blog is for seasons when you find yourself worn down by words — when explaining your heart feels harder than staying quiet. And as always, let me say this gently at the start: If you have questions, or if something here connects with something you’re carrying quietly,   please feel free to ask . I don’t have all the answers, but I care, and I’ll do my best to respond as soon as I can. You don’t have to walk this alone. There comes a point in the walk with Jesus when you realize you’re tired of explaining yourself. Not because you’re hiding. Not because you’re ashamed. But because words no longer seem to help. You explain once. Then again. Then again. And eventually, the soul say...

🌾 First Zion, the Sealed Portion, and a People Being Prepared 🪶 A quiet reflection on Ether 4, Pure Revelations, and the Nemenhah Records

  🌾 First Zion, the Sealed Portion, and a People Being Prepared 🪶   A quiet reflection on Ether 4, Pure Revelations, and the Nemenhah Records For many years now, I’ve been grateful for the work done by   Pure Revelations . His writings helped pull me out of something subtle but dangerous — the idea that believing   about   Christ was the same as   knowing Him . Over and over, he pointed back to the Book of Mormon’s central demand: Repent deeply. Seek Christ directly. Let Zion be measured by fruit, not by claims. That path changed me. 🌱 What Pure Revelations Is Really Doing It’s easy to read Pure Revelations and focus on ideas or interpretations. But what he is actually doing is   preparing servants . Not servants of a church. Not servants of a movement. Servants of   Jesus Christ . Again and again, he teaches that: Zion is not institutional Zion does not arrive by announcement Zion is a people, not a program The gifts of the Spirit are the true...

🏛️ When the Buildings Remain but the People Move On (A quiet reflection on temples, trust, and what survives every reset)

-
  🏛️ When the Buildings Remain but the People Move On (A quiet reflection on temples, trust, and what survives every reset) There’s a question that tends to surface quietly — usually not in public meetings, but in private moments. It goes something like this: “If there’s a great shaking… what happens to all the buildings?” Not just houses. Not just banks. But   church buildings . Temples. Cathedrals. Sacred spaces built with real faith, real sacrifice, and real devotion. It’s a fair question. And scripture has answered it before — more than once. 🧱 Buildings Have Always Outlived Their Purpose History is gentle, but firm, about this. Solomon’s Temple stood — then fell Synagogues flourished — then scattered Cathedrals filled Europe — many now museums or concert halls The pattern is not destruction first. The pattern is   departure first . God does not usually tear buildings down. He simply   stops living in them . 📜 The Bible Is Clear (and Calm) About This When Jesu...

  🌿 Walking With Jesus When You Feel Misunderstood (Companion Blog for Video 34) 📺   Companion Video 34 — Talk With Jesus Daily You can watch the video here: 👉   https://www.youtube.com/@TheTrueRemnant/videos If you haven’t watched the video yet, I suggest starting there. This blog is for seasons when words don’t land the way you intend, motives are questioned, and you feel   misread — even by good people . And as always, let me say this gently: If you have questions, or if something here touches a place that feels raw or confusing,   please feel free to ask . I don’t claim to have all the answers — but I care, and I’ll do my best to respond as soon as I can. You don’t have to walk this alone. There are moments in the walk with Jesus when you realize you are being misunderstood. Not because you’re being unkind. Not because you’re trying to confuse anyone. But because the place you’re walking from no longer matches the place others are standing. And that can h...

🔑 WHO HOLDS THE KEYS — AND WHO RECOGNIZES THE COVENANT? 🕊️ A common-sense look at baptism, authority, and the Kingdom of God

  🔑 WHO HOLDS THE KEYS — AND WHO RECOGNIZES THE COVENANT? 🕊️   A common-sense look at baptism, authority, and the Kingdom of God 🌾 A Simple, Honest Question I love the Church. I was baptized in the Church. I’ve served, believed, repented, prayed, and tried to follow Jesus Christ. So here’s a   plain and sincere question   many faithful members quietly carry: Does the Lord recognize my baptism because the Church performed it — or because my heart entered a covenant with Him? That question isn’t rebellious. It’s   scriptural . And answering it carefully clears up a lot of confusion about   keys ,   authority , and   the Kingdom of God . 📖 What the Scriptures Actually Say About the Kingdom The scriptures never reduce the Kingdom of God to a single institution. Jesus said: “The kingdom of God is   within you .” (Luke 17:21) And also taught that His kingdom would be: A gathered people A covenant body A government led by Christ Himself So the K...

🕊️ A Wheelbarrow of Gold… and Other Things That Won’t Save You (Learning to walk with the Lord when the ground starts shaking)

  🕊️ A Wheelbarrow of Gold… and Other Things That Won’t Save You (Learning to walk with the Lord when the ground starts shaking) There’s a saying that tends to surface whenever people start talking about calamities, collapse, or “the reset.” “A wheelbarrow full of money won’t buy a loaf of bread.” That one is true. History has proven it again and again. But then someone usually adds: “And a wheelbarrow full of   gold   won’t buy a loaf of bread either.” That’s where things start to get confusing — not because gold is worthless, but because   we’ve mixed up timing, purpose, and trust . So let’s slow down and walk through this without fear, hype, or selling anyone a shortcut to peace. 🪙 Gold: Savior, Villain, or Just a Tool? Gold has been around longer than nations, currencies, and most institutions that claim permanence. The Book of Mormon understands gold very clearly: “And they began to set their hearts upon their riches… and they were lifted up in the pride of th...
