Mormon doesn’t say a lot about Nephi’s ministry leading up to the destruction at the Death of Christ and his subsequent visit. He says his ministry was amazing.
But he does say a few things. Nephi began his ministry in 31 AD. (I was thinking 30 AD before I began this post.)
I wrote down in a list the things Mormon says about Nephi.
I added later, he ordained men to baptize.
This made me cry. Nephi and Jesus at the same time living similar ministries. Of course Nephi didn’t reach Jesus’ perfection. But his ministry looks so similar to his Master’s.
He has just jumped up on the people I want to meet on the other side list.
How did I not see this before?

I constantly ask myself that question about the Book of Mormon, too.
