📜 SAME JESUS — SAME BOOK

💖 The Book of Mormon Is True … But the Story Isn’t Finished Yet

A video’s been circling again — that little reel about Joseph Smith and the Book of Mormon.
It asks how a 23-year-old farm boy with barely a third-grade education could dictate a 270,000-word record of prophets and wars in ninety days, no rewrites, no edits, no library, no Google.
And it ends with: either he was a literary genius or he really was a prophet of God.

I believe the second one with every fiber of my being.
That book is a miracle. I’ve felt its truth burn through me too many times to doubt it.

🌎 The Tool and the Purpose

The Lord raised up the early Saints to deliver the record.
They were organized, industrious, tireless — a perfect tool in His hands.
Through them the Book of Mormon went to the world, and hearts everywhere turned toward Jesus.

But tools aren’t the finished temple.
The same revelation that praised their zeal also warned:

“They shall remain under condemnation until they remember the new covenant, even the Book of Mormon.” (D&C 84:54-58)

That warning still hums under our feet.
Great in programs, strong in outreach — yet Zion, the one described inside that very book, still waits to be lived.

🕊 The Voice — Not the Robe

If you’ve read Don’t Follow the White Robe — Follow the Voice, you already know the pattern.
In Lehi’s dream, the man in the white robe led people into darkness — appearance over revelation.
The iron rod wasn’t an institution; it was the living word of Christ, the same Voice that speaks in every true record.
When that Voice guides you, you don’t need titles to stand in holy places.

🪶 What the Nemenhah Records Say About Us

The Nemenhah Records pick up the story long after Moroni buried the plates.
They tell of the Peacemaker’s people in the north and of the foreign strangers — that’s us, the Gentiles of the last days.
The Lord, they say, would use these strangers because they were “industrious, organized, and full of desire.”
Through them the sacred record would reach every nation.

But the Nemenhah warn that the same people would later “build up churches and gather wealth,” mistaking organization for holiness.
Still, the prophecy is tender:

“The Lord will not abandon the foreign strangers, for by their hands the records shall go forth. Yet when they weary of His Spirit, He will whisper again, and they who hear shall rise up and build the Refuge.”

That Refuge — Tsiahn — is Zion reborn, built by hearts that consecrate everything to the Peacemaker, not by corporations that trademark His name.

📖 Many Records, One Story

The Bible, the Book of Mormon, and the Nemenhah Records speak the same language of heaven:

Faith and repentance — not status or lineage.
Baptism and the Holy Ghost — not endless ceremony.
Hearing Christ’s voice personally — not borrowing light from another’s lamp.

Different continents, one Shepherd still calling His flock.

🌿 Zion Starts in Homes

As written in Women of Zion and the Nemenhah Mothers, peace begins where love rules the home.
Consecration isn’t a bank ledger; it’s a kitchen table where nobody is forgotten.
When families live that way, the Refuge appears without fanfare — heaven recognized in common life.

🔥 What the Lord Is Doing Now

We’re living in the hinge time.
The Book of Mormon went out through the foreign strangers — job well done.
Now the Spirit turns hearts back to the covenant itself: to live the words, not just distribute them.

Every record agrees:

Zion won’t be built from the ashes of a fallen church but from the hearts of those who still hear and obey the Voice of the Peacemaker.

That’s the ongoing restoration.
It’s not rebellion; it’s remembrance.

💖 Final Thought

I love the faithful Saints. I honor the missionaries and mothers who’ve carried this light across the world.
But the Book of Mormon isn’t owned.
It’s loaned — a living invitation from the Savior to all people, in every nation, to come unto Him.

Same Jesus. Same Book. The story goes on.
And the next chapter is being written in the hearts of those who actually believe the book.
