0:00.0	So this particular set of chapters contains some of the most exciting stories that we get in the Book of Mormon,
0:09.0	where Nephi is being guided by the Lord and Lehii and the family as they go down through the wilderness
0:18.0	to work their way out towards the seashore where they're going to
0:21.8	then build the boat. In chapter 16, you'll notice we have finished up his conversation
0:29.6	in chapter 15 with his brothers, Lehman and Lemuel, and notice verse 1 of chapter 16. It came to pass that after I Nephi had made an end of speaking to my brother,
0:41.3	behold they said unto me, thou hast declared unto us hard things more than we are able to bear.
0:49.3	This is interesting because you can look at this idea of you've given us hard things. We can't
0:59.4	bear them. The question is, is that a reflection of the things that Nephi taught or is it
1:08.3	a reflection of our, of the condition of our heart? If your heart is hard,
1:15.1	then it doesn't matter what the prophets of God say or speak. It's going to feel difficult.
1:22.3	It's going to feel harsh. And he points that out in verse 2. It came to pass that I said unto them that I knew that I had
1:29.0	spoken hard things against the wicked according to the truth. And the righteous have I justified
1:34.2	and testified that they should be lifted up at the last day. Wherefore the guilty taketh the truth
1:40.0	to be hard for it cutteth them to the very center. If you struggle with listening
1:47.7	to the words of our church leaders, the knee-jerk response for the natural man and the
1:54.2	natural woman inside of us is to point fingers at the leaders and say, you shouldn't say
2:00.1	such harsh things. Whereas
2:02.9	Nephi is inviting us to go and take a look in the mirror and say, let me analyze my heart,
2:08.3	the condition of the hardness of my heart regarding these teachings and ask the question first
2:14.8	from the New Testament, Lord, is it I that needs to make some adjustments?
2:21.2	Because again, the natural man wants other people to make the adjustments, to soften things
2:27.3	up. But the Lord wants us to first look at the inner vessel and soften the heart and then move forward on the covenant path.
