Moroni After the War: What the Book of Mormon Didn’t Finish --- He lived on! Listen to his warnings!
🛡️📜 Moroni After the War: What the Book of Mormon Didn’t Tell You From the Nemenhah Record of Mohrhohnahyah – Chapters 1–18
🛡️📜 Introduction: What Happened to Moroni?
The Book of Mormon ends with Moroni wandering alone. He writes a few last words and hides the plates. We are left with silence.
But the Nemenhah Records pick up where Mormon's record ends. In these sacred writings, we discover that Moroni did not vanish. He lived on. He taught. He prophesied. Among the Nemenhah people, he was known as Mohrhohnahyah.
He became a father, a scribe, and a prophet who foresaw the restoration of Zion in the last days.
📖🌄 A Record for the Last Days (Ch. 1–2)
"I have seen that the record which I did seal up... shall be chosen of the Peacemaker and delivered up unto a Prophet in the last days." (Mohrhohnahyah 4:28)
That prophet was Joseph Smith. The record was the Book of Mormon. But that was not the whole story. Mohrhohnahyah also foresaw a remnant people, a little flock that would be stirred by the spirit of their ancestors.
"A little flock shall gather and cry out in the wilderness and prepare the way for the establishing of Tsiahn." (v. 41)
This Zion would not come through large institutions. It would come through consecrated hearts.
⚔️📚 Reflections on War and Healing (Chs. 3–4)
Mohrhohnahyah recounts the trauma of war — how it hardened men and stole peace from the land. He urges healing not just of land and people but of the spirit.
"Yea, I have been healed, and my burden has been lifted from off my shoulders." (4:23)
He bears testimony of the sealing up of the records, the Lord’s timing, and the sacred purpose of preservation.
⚠️🩸 Warnings to Our Generation (Ch. 5)
Mohrhohnahyah speaks of the Gentiles ("foreign strangers") and the tragic fate awaiting the majority of them:
"They shall continue in their wickedness... and shall meet the same end [as the Nephites]." (v. 33)
"The more part of the foreign strangers shall sink into this awful state... Their history shall be one of blood and horror." (v. 37)
🌿🕊️ The Promise of Zion (Tsiahn) (Chs. 6–8)
"If there may remain any who will give up this wickedness... then shall Tsiahn be established again." (v. 23)
Zion will not come by ambition, priestcraft, or empire. It will come among those who:
Cast off the ways of Babylon
Live the principles of consecration
Remember the voice of their fathers
"Little by little, one person here and one person there... shall come out of Pahbaylohn and establish Tsiahn once again in this blessed land." (v. 49)
"Because of the record... they shall look again within and find there the blood of their fathers crying in the wilderness." (v. 48)
🛤️🌌 Revelation and the Way (Ch. 9)
Chapter 9 introduces the sacred doctrine of walking the Way — a path of personal revelation, transformation, and face-to-face communion with the Peacemaker:
"To walk upon the Way is the beginning of the Calling and Election... to seek and find the Sahnhehmpeht and speak with Him face to face." (9:14)
"Every day becomes a Sabbath to them and every table an altar." (9:66)
"In thanksgiving only, am I able to be still and know the Peacemaker." (9:110)
🌾🤝 Consecrated Living (Ch. 10)
"It is expedient to choose that way of life that will most effectively remove... the clamor and noise of daily living." (10:3)
The Nemenhah people:
Avoid the striving for wealth and status
Live without coercion or hierarchy
Fast often and in private
Use ceremonies with sacred smoke and plant essences
Practice ordinances that cleanse both body and spirit
"Because we provide in all things for one another, there are no beggars... because we do not heap up riches, we are not desired by the Gahdiahntohnhehm." (10:26)
"They shall call themselves by the name of the Peacemaker... and peace shall have been written in their souls." (10:52)
🌱🏛️ Ecology and Governance (Ch. 11)
Mohrhohnahyah, as Tiwehkthihmpt (chief steward), faced a crisis when Mayntinah grew too large and strained its natural resources. Rather than enforce commands, he helped dissolve the Council and empowered a Council of Mothers to prayerfully choose new leaders.
“The land may bear only so many souls without hurt… Shall any city do this in this fair land you shall see want and hunger.” (11:22)
“Behold, this shall be the future of all the Nemenhah, should they fail to keep the commandments of the Peacemaker and follow Him in His paths.” (11:37)
“It matters not what such a people call themselves… they shall all be the same who tread upon the counsels of the Peacemaker.” (11:46)
🔥⚖️ Priestcraft and Purging the Holy Order (Ch. 12)
“When the people began to call for fees and tribute for ordinances and instruction… I was moved to cast them out.” (12:11)
“It is not enough to be called a Pehli or a priest, or to serve in the lodges. One must be called of the Spirit… and anointed with holy purpose.” (12:25)
🌄⛺ The Gathering and the Remnant (Ch. 13)
“They shall rise up out of obscurity… a remnant hidden in the wilderness shall begin again the work of the Peacemaker.” (13:17)
“They shall come from among all nations… one here and one there… and they shall build again upon the foundation laid by their fathers.” (13:33)
🏛️🔑 Fall and Repurposing of the Restoration Church (Ch. 14)
“They received the fullness but did not live it… yet the Lord used them still because of their strength and industry.” (14:7)
“They have the keys, they say. But the keys have rusted. The doors they were to open remain unopened.” (14:14)
🕊️👣 The Little Remnant and the Final Gathering (Chs. 15–18)
“They shall be led by no man… but by the Spirit only. They shall not call themselves by any man’s name but the name of the Peacemaker.” (15:6)
“Zion shall rise again, not in splendor but in purity… she shall come forth as a bride prepared for her husband.” (17:19)
“Let every soul who heeds this record do so with purpose… for the day is short and the work is great.” (18:7)
