You're not going to be here. Every time I read the Book of Mormon and get to these chapters I always hope that the Nephites will repent and that their civilization

and people will be spared.

And then it happens every time they are destroyed.

And then another entire civilization, the Geridites, are destroyed for the same reasons.

We can't change their outcomes, but how about ours?

Is there a message in here for us right now in our day?

Welcome dear friends to Meridian magazines,
