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

2 Nephi 18

As Isaiah speaks of his day, one cannot help but see similarities to our day.  Where wicked Israel relied upon "confederacy" and "familiar spirits and unto wizards that peep and mutter", Isaiah wrote -
"...for God is with us.
11 For the Lord spake thus to me with a strong hand, and instructed me that I should not walk in the way of this people"  (2 Nephi 18:10–11)

"Sanctify the Lord of Hosts himself, and let him be your fear, and let him be your dread.
14 And he shall be for a sanctuary..."  (2 Nephi 18:13–14)
