Book of Mormon [HELAMAN 1-6] Insights
“Stand Fast in the Faith of Christ”
August 26 - September 1 2024
WEEK 35: SUMMARY
=================
Lesson Summary:
The book of Helaman is a build-up to the coming of Jesus Christ in the Book of Mormon. Our master editor, Mormon, sets the stage by helping us understand the depths of the darkness brought on by the Coriantumr, Kishkumen, and the Gadianton Robbers. That dark backdrop will make the bright bursts of light we find in the stories of Moronihah, Helaman, Nephi, Lehi, Aminadab and others. The contrast will catch your heart and help you feel more equipped to conquer the darkness of our day.
Questions to Consider:
Helaman 3:30 | What do you think it means to sit with the holy fathers and “go no more out”?
Helaman 5:8 | What do you think a heavenly treasure is? Is it relationships, a rate of progression, a certainty of some kind? What else could we possibly “lay-up” for ourselves?
Helaman 6:36-38 | The Lamanites converted or removed the Gadianton Robbers from the lands but the Nephites “build them up and support them” until most “come down to believe in their works and partake of their spoils.” Do you see similar trends in our day? What does ripening for destruction look like in our day? Could teaching truth reverse that trend?

Your insights are so beautiful. I absolutely love these videos you do every week. A big, resounding thank you!❤️

[@MariaEckersley]

Thank you, Lori. I love your comments. Sometimes when I wonder if my thoughts will make sense to others, I think "Lori will get it." 😆It helps me not get stuck and just move forward. So thank you too!

[@lorigraves7852]

I appreciate your vulnerability, your courage your optimism…You’ve tasted the bitter cup, but you’ve chosen to not be bitter. Your love for the Lord shines brightly in every word. Kind of like a disco ball.😉❤️

Hi Maria! This is Jared again with Christian Homestead. Just one more time (I had already left a comment on an older video), I would love to give you access to a private spreadsheet I put together of all pro-church and anti-church channels on UA-cam. I've already given access to other channels like Scripture Central, Ward Radio, Called to Share, etc. I think it's really important to know where you fit into the big picture. This is meant to be a motivational tool to help us all keep up the good fight because unfortunately there are too many anti channels out there. Channels like yours is NEEDED! Please let me know either. I would appreciate it. Thank you!

Where is the North area they go to called ?

[@MariaEckersley]

It's usually called the "Land Northward." We don't know distance but it's close enough to trade frequently with the Land Southward. It's North of the narrow neck of land often mentioned in the Book of Mormon.
