The Lamanites And Nephites United



Wickedness and abominations increased among the population.
Sin was like a plague or fire sweeping across the nation!
The Gaddianton robbers became so much on the increase,
that to defend themselves, the Lamanites and Nephites made peace.

Converted Lamanites were no longer under a curse, as of before.
The Lamanites and Nephites resembled each other more and more.
Lamanite, was used in reference to rebels against the doctrine of God,
But that had become the very road, where the Gadianton robbers trod.

John Hugo Cullen

Born 01 June 1940 at Roswell, New Mexico. Baptized 15 April 1972 in Spring Creek north of Cookeville, Tennessee, at Bend of the River. Ordained a high priest of The Church of Jesus Christ of Later-day Saints on 04 July 1976 by the late Robert N. Brady.I believe that the standard works, or scriptures, of the church are written by prophets, by revelation and are holy and sacrd. I feel an obligation to share them all, one daily. The only contribution of mine is to turn the prose into poetry so it can be submitted as poetry. I do not claim credit for the basic ideas, but I accept blame for all my mistakes. Please respect the sources, and please be brutally honest, with details, to help the message bearer's improvement!Some may think that using the scriptures for inspiration means that originality is missing. In my poem archive you can also find non-scriptural works, on a variety of topics. Some have been selected, by editors, for publication in The United Kingdom and United States. more…
