And I pause, then find the references in the scriptures they list, and do another side study. The spirit is so strong reading these books.
They along with dr Avraham Gileadi’s books on Isaiah have helped me gained VOLUMES of understanding. Out of his 3 books I’ve read this (triumph of Zion) is probably my favorite, with visions of glory as a close second, and then following the light of Christ into his presence. My goals have shifted from worldly to becoming Zion/ translated.
AVRAHAM GILEADI VISIONS OF GLORY HOW TO
The third book : Triumph of Zion has allowed me to learn why and how to pursue the new desires and goals that have come to me.The information expounded on, from the scriptures and words of our prophets and apostles, is so phenomenal and spirit filled!! Not many people my age are learning or seeking after, I’m a millennial, and know my place. I have been able to recalibrate my whole future and retread the righteous desires of my heart and see new visions (goals)for my own life(according of course on the will of the Lord) it has motivated me to do much more. The second one is Visions of Glory.(will try to make this shorter) This book has changed my life. But the wonderful thing is that after all these years.48 now since that first time I am learning new things everytime. I finished it in 7 days and since have gone over many times. Like Parley P Pratt mentions eating was a chore and when my mom would take me to the store I would walk and read. I would sit on the front step outside(Southern California)from early to late reading. It was difficult for me to understand at that age,however at the age of 15 I decided to read it through the Christmas break. They shared with me about the Prophet Joseph and then the book of Mormon. When I was 12 years old I was blessed to have the missionaries of the Lord’s True Church frequent my home. The three books that have inspired my life the most are one:The Book of Mormon Two: Visions of Glory Three: Triumph Of Zion.
AVRAHAM GILEADI VISIONS OF GLORY FULL
After reading it one Sunday, I was so full of the spirit that for three days my heart felt on fire…it was amazing! I would also have to second Melisa’s comment about Elder Busche’s book, that one’s a keeper too! John taught about becoming a Zion people. To me it went hand in hand with what Bro. John share it with us.Īnother book that has had a great impact on me is Avraham Gileadi’s book Isaiah Decoded.
I don’t know about any of you, but his works have also helped open an understanding of the scriptures and plan of salvation like nothing else and I will be eternally grateful to the Lord for letting Bro. I have since enjoyed the rest of his books and frequently return to them as my understanding of the concepts he taught grows. George, Utah and opening that book on my lap and before I even started reading, the spirit just engulfed me and I knew it was an inspired work. I remember very vividly driving to visit family in St. Following the Light of Christ was the beginning door for me on this path over 15+ years ago. Like many others, Brother Pontius’s works are all on my list of top 10 life changing books.
