Ether Chapter 13


13:5-6 - "...[Jerusalem] should be built up again, and become a holy city of the Lord; and it should be built unto the house of Israel—And that a New Jerusalem should be built up upon this land..."
There will be two Jerusalems - the one in Israel and the one in the United States at Jackson County.  We need to do what we can to prepare ourselves and those around us for the Second Coming and the building up of Zion.


13:11 - "...blessed are they, for they have been washed in the blood of the Lamb; and they are they who were scattered and gathered in from the four quarters of the earth, and from the north countries..."
At the time of the Second Coming, the Lost Tribes will be gathered in from the 4 corners of the Earth and the north countries.  This shows that the Lord keeps His promises.  We can have faith that the Lord will do His part, and we need to do our part.


13:20 - "...if [Coriantumr] would repent, and all his household, the Lord would give unto him his kingdom and spare the people..."
Those are great blessings - to have the kingdom and the people spared - but these blessings were specific to Coriantumr.  Sometimes we can have certain blessings through faith that are specific to us!
