Here is Just One More example of Speaking in CODE TALK, it must be you Gentile TTers in that great & Spacious building.
Much communication is transmitted coded into these conversations at the expense of you gullible TTers Reread the post below, and see if it has additional meaning now that you have the key.
"Many people who seek thrills, excitement, and riches have been lured into the 'great and spacious building.' There they find entrapment, defeat, tarnished treasures, and great sorrow. "Learn the difference between eternal joy and worldly pleasure." The New Era, June 1988, pages 4-6.
THE ROD OF IRON & Great & Spacious Building
1 Nephi 8:19-20 describes the rod of iron and a path to the tree with fruit "Desirable above all other fruit"
1 Nephi 11:25;1 Nephi 15:23-24 The rod of iron represents the word of God. We find the word of God in the scriptures, the teachings of latter-day prophets, and the promptings of the Holy Ghost. The word of God helps us come unto Christ and helps keep us on the path to eternal life.

1 Nephi 11:34-36; 1 Nephi 12:18 The great and spacious building represented the vain imaginations and pride of the world.
1 Nephi 8:26 It is significant that the building "stood...in the air". From this we note that the building did not have a solid foundation. Pride can keep a person from receiving eternal life by enticing them to build on a worldly foundation rather than an eternal one.
1 Nephi 8:26-28 Some people in the vision tasted of the fruit but were ashamed because the people in the great and spacious building mocked them. It takes strength, our own and that of the Spirit as our companion, to withstand persecution.

Blaine: Don't take me wrong, I am not building a case to leave TT. I am just complaining, hoping someone will take note and learn from it. Your additional clarifications are mucho appreciated, too.I hope to continue holding to the iron rod, as I continue to grope my way through the cloud in the dark and dreary wilderness, despite the heat I get from those in the great and spacious building. (:>)My reward will be to know that the allegory (?) I am alluding to was based upon reality, not fiction. Being on TT has that effect on one. You probably understand that better than I do, right? I never went on a Proselyting mission, so I need the heat to catch up. I may be suffering from a compulsive need to test myself in the crucible of fire, or maybe I just need something to exercise my brain. Either way, I am in it, and plan to stay. If TT'rs can dish out heat, they should be able to take it. That's the axiom we went by when I was growing up. My older brother was expecially good at dishing it out, so it is not entirely new to me despite not having been on TT for all that long. For the most part, it is fun more often than not. But, yes, mutual support is where it is all at.
