Alma 5 - Part 2

Have you received His image in your countenance? What does that mean? Alma, in his address to the members of the church in Zarahemla asks them if they've been stripped of pride, of envy, and malice towards their brethren. He asks if they can - right now - sing the song of redeeming love.

Can you?

Stripping ourselves of pride can be daunting, but Sister Scriptorians Coaching can be helpful in the process.

Alma 5

This podcast begins Alma's two year mission, going from one Nephite city to another, preaching repentance and faith in Jesus Christ. He begins in the City of Zarahemla where he addresses the members of thhttps://sisterscriptorians.com/?page_id=6017e church, calling them to remember the deliverance of their fathers.

Why would that be the perfect place to start for these members who have struggled with pride and inequality?

Why would that be needful for these Nephites who have been affected by the false teachings of Nehor?

Also, I hope you will accept the invitation I extend to be a part of my Confidently Creating Training. Registration begins on February 15th and can be accessed here at sisterscriptorians.com

Alma 4

After the battle with the Amilicites, the Nephites humbled themselves and they grieved for the loss of their loved ones and their sustenance that was trampled down by the armies. Yet, they knew their mourning was because of their abominations and they chose to face up to their errors and be "awakened to a remembrance of their duty."

However, soon, because of their prosperity, pride grew in the church and because of it, Alma would give up the Chief Judge seat in order to spend all of his time combating pride and inequality.

How does pride show up in us? How does prosperity grow that pride? If prosperity leads to pride, why DOES God choose to bless us with abundance and how does it further His work?

Alma 2-3

The introduction of priestcraft into the Nephite society - a society that had just received their liberty, would ignite a drive for riches and power. Many would continue on in the belief system Nehor professed and another cunning man would rise up to impose these beliefs upon the people.

We learn about Amilici and his push to be made king over the people, whether they desired that or not. We also see that rebellion against God and relinquishing our liberty opens to door to the ailments of bondage. Nephites will spend many years trying to close that door.

Alma 1

Before king Mosiah died, he had organized his people to receive their liberty and enjoy the blessings of self-government. However, within the first year of the reign of judges, a strong man named Nehor desired to chip away at the equality that had been established.

Learn about the philosophies of Nehor, the man to first introduce priestcraft into the Nephites' society and discover the last ramifications it had.

Mosiah 27-29

In these final chapters of the Book of Mosiah, we learn about the impact that humans can have on their fellowmen when they align their will with God's. They become instruments in His hands.

When searching for peace amongst the chaos – look for the instruments in the hands of God who confirm your faith and publish peace and good tidings, who desire salvation for all, who use their energy to break down misunderstandings to build unity and friendship, who take measures to avoid contention, who reaffirm spiritual truths and warn against disobedience to those truths, who preserve your liberty and allow you to answer for your own sins. Where you find this is where you will find God.

Mosiah 27

What is the Lord's way in establishing equality among all men? In chapter 27, we find that the Lord poured out His grace upon the people when they stripped themselves of pride and haughtiness, esteemed their neighbor as themselves, and supported themselves with their own hands. Peace was established in the land for some time - however - persecution did return to the Lord's people. This time it was found in the sons of their beloved leaders. This episode also discovers WHY the Lord sent and angel to Alma, son of Alma, and what we were taught in Alma's redemption.

Mosiah 26

Mosiah 25

How do you gather and unite four different groups of people, who have lived independently and have had their own spiritual manifestations of the Lord?

In Mosiah 25, in the Book of Mormon, we learn how learning how humility, faith in Jesus Christ, and a willingness to listen to learn about the experiences of one another helped unite the people in feeling until they obtained power with God.

Referring to the Creation doctrine found in Genesis, Moses, and Abraham.

How did God create? What is my role in creating? and How can I partner with God in creating? In this bonus episode, I continue to provide strategies to help you apply the doctrine and principles of the gospel of Jesus Christ to our every day lives.
