1 Nephi Chapter 3

  • 3:1 Nephi spoke with the Lord
  • 3:2 Lehi shared revelation with children
  • 3:2 Lehi was worthy to receive revelation for his children
  • 3:3 Laban kept genealogical records
  • 3:6 Nephi didn't murmur
  • 3:7 Nephi had faith
  • 3:7 Nephi was willing to do what the Lord commanded
  • 3:9 Nephi, Lamen, Lemuel, and Sam did as their father asked
  • 3:15 Nephi wouldn't give up
  • 3:17 Nephi prophesied
  • 3:20 Nephi prepared for his children
  • 3:22 Nephi did...he didn't just wait for an answer
  • 3:29 Nephi and Sam did not fight back
It is interesting to me that three characters that would not usually fall under the category of virtuous did something virtuous--Laman, Lemuel, and Laban. People can do virtuous things, but living a virtuous life means consistently doing virtuous things. Do I want to dabble or enfold myself in virtue?
