apricots Posted July 23, 2012 Report Share Posted July 23, 2012 There's a part in the Book of Mormon (I think...) where it talks about that one guy who walked across North America blessing and dedicating different parts of it? Anybody know what I'm talking about? Where is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beefche Posted July 23, 2012 Report Share Posted July 23, 2012 Are you talking about Alma? He saw that his people were becoming more wicked and left the judgment seat to begin preaching to the people. He traveled to various cities to preach the Gospel. Is that what you are thinking of?

volgadon Posted July 23, 2012 Report Share Posted July 23, 2012 I think he means Moroni, but this comes from sources outside the BoM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you are thinking of sources outside the Book of Mormon which specify that Moroni may have dedicated the Manti temple spot.Which bring me to the conclusion, I have never read any authentic writings from past prophets and apostles regarding this.Does anyone have a source where this stems from? If so, I would be most curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snow that Temple Hill was the spot where Book of Mormon Prophet Moroni dedicated the land for a temple siteSource: Manti Utah LDS (Mormon) TempleHope that helps.

RipplecutBuddha Posted July 25, 2012 Report Share Posted July 25, 2012 And here I thought I'd be able to suggest Nephi or Sam, both good parts for a man, unless you're looking to play the heel, as it were. For that there's Laban of course, but that's just a bit-part really since it ends very early on with no real development in it..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
