Scripture Blog

This weblog is my personal online scripture journal. I try to read the scriptures each morning as I exercise on my cross-trainer. It has a great impact on my life and my testimony of the Savior and his restored church. The journal is really for my own benefit but I have set it up as a web log in hopes to benefit anyone else that may be interested. "For he that diligently seeketh shall find; and the mysteries of God shall be unfolded unto them, by the power of the Holy Ghost..." 1 Nephi 10:19

1 Nephi 18

It seems that after every witness, Laman and Lemuel begin to repent.  But each time they seem to get harder and harder in their hearts.  Even after being "shocked" by the Lord in the Bountiful, they even get so hard that Nephi records -

"...there was nothing save it were the power of God, which threatened them with destruction, could soften their hearts; wherefore, when they saw that they were about to be swallowed up in the depths of the sea they repented of the thing which they had done, insomuch that they loosed me."  (1 Nephi 18:20)

This time there is no mentioned that they felt remorse or sorrow.
