Year:1620
Scriptures:
1
Nephi 13:15-16
15
And I beheld the Spirit of the Lord, that it was upon the Gentiles,
and they did prosper and obtain the land for their inheritance; and I
beheld that they were white, and exceedingly fair and beautiful, like
unto my people before they were slain.
16
And it came to pass that I, Nephi, beheld that the Gentiles who had
gone forth out of captivity did humble themselves before the Lord;
and the power of the Lord was with them.
“The
Spirit of the Lord, that it was upon the Gentiles” means that many
people who lived in Europe were inspired by God to Emigrate to the
new world of America. Many immigrants came to America, beginning with
the exodus of the Mayflower in 1620. They came to flee the tyranny of
their European rulers and begin a new life in their newly inherited
land. They were successful and prospered in their new found freedom.
