You can read 1 Nephi Chapter 1 HERE
I really enjoyed this chapter. What a great way to start the BOM. I found similarities of Lehi's account with God with Joseph Smith's. They came to god with all of their heart during time that the world needed him most and God came to them and showed them the way. Gave them books to help lead them. They both were mocked and rejected for what they said they saw.
Nephi is not writing an account of his own in this book, but of accounts of his father, and he's writing this account to show us that the tender mercies of the Lord are over all those whom he hath chosen, because of their faith, to make them mighty even unto the power of deliverance. See 1 Nephi 1:20.
If you're following this journey with me what is your take on Chapter 1?
