Spiritual Thought/Scripture Mastery 1 Nephi 3:7
7 And it came to pass that I, Nephi, said unto my
father: I awill go and do the things which the Lord
hath commanded, for I know that the Lord giveth
no bcommandments unto the children of men, save
he shall cprepare a way for them that they may
accomplish the thing which he commandeth them.
Introduction 2 Nephi 6-8
As Nephi recorded the ministry of his people, he
included a two-day sermon by his younger brother
Jacob. The sermon is found in 2 Nephi 6–10, and this
is the first of three lessons about it. At the beginning
of the sermon, Jacob read prophecies of Isaiah
concerning the scattering and gathering of Israel,
showing that “the Lord God will fulfill his covenants
which he has made unto his children” (2 Nephi 6:12).
Read 2 Nephi 6:3–4 and 9:1, 3 aloud. Identify reasons why
Jacob gave this sermon. Journalize as we read under the
following heading:
