The Destiny of the Sword of Laban

The Destiny of the Sword of Laban

True/False question, "The Sword of Laban currently rests upon the gold plates, unsheathed, in the Hill Cumorah." The answer is true.(from This site)

 What!?!  Aparently, according to Brigham Young's account of Oliver Cowdery's statements, when Oliver and Joseph Smith returned the plates they took them into a cave inside the Hill Cumorah and set them on a table.  The room was filled with plates, more than could fit in several wagon loads.  Later when they visited the room the sword of Laban was unsheathed and laying on top of the plates.  Writing on the sword said,

"'This sword will never be sheathed again until the kingdoms of this world become the kingdom of our God and his Christ."

 Wow.

Who Wrote this part of Moses 4?

Moses 4:32 (And these are the words which I spake unto my servant Moses, and they are true even as I will; and I have spoken them unto you. See thou show them unto no man, until I command you, except to them that believe. Amen.)


"I spake unto my servant Moses,"  Who is the I?  An angel, Jesus? 
"I have spoken them unto you."  Who is the I?  An angel, Moses, Joseph Smith?  Who is the you?  Joseph Smith?


As I type this I have been given the answer.  The first I is Jesus for these things are true even as Jesus wills it.  Jesus has spoken them unto Joseph Smith in translating the Bible.  So he was commanded not to show or publish the book of Moses until commanded, except to them that believe.  


This text shows that some truths are sacred, some are secret, some are secret to the non-believer.  And it is up to the Holy Ghost to tell us when to share and what to share of sacred experiences.
