9.2 Post-Visit Wars

38m · War in the Book of Mormon · 07 Oct 00:44

Mormon commanded during four different wars. This episode discusses the first three of those wars. Mormon does not give us much detail as he wanted to emphasize the positive and successful approach to God demonstrated by people like Alma, Moroni, and Lachoneus and not the inevitability of defeat and destruction for those who reject God, which was what the people of his day did. Even with the limited details there is value in understanding what happened and what that can teach us about preparation, covenants, and unity.

The episode 9.2 Post-Visit Wars from the podcast War in the Book of Mormon has a duration of 38:26. It was first published 07 Oct 00:44. The cover art and the content belong to their respective owners.

Part 10.2 Conclusion and Specific Spiritual Lessons

Mormon’s metaphor uses armed conflict to teach all of us how to return to stand clean before the judgement bar of Jesus Christ (Mormon 3:20-22). That metaphor emphasizes three key parts: preparation, covenants, and unity. This episode discusses each of those parts as a conclusion and then goes on to draw spiritual concluding lessons from Mormon’s three great armed conflict sermons: the Battle of Manti, the Amalickiahite War, and the Gadianton Robber War. The episode ends with my gratitude to all the listeners, Bill Welch for his musical contributions, and Sheri Steed for her unfailing support.
