This Book Is True!
I have not read this entire book, but have greatly benefited from my study of it so far. I have gleaned some important truths from the material contained in this text, and I want to bear my testimony that this book is true.My view is that this version of the "Sealed Portion" and Christopher Nemelka's version are equally valid and true. If you understand the principles of the gospel, or in other words the true points of doctrine, the light of truth will awaken you to these things. I am very grateful for this book.

Changing the landscape of religion / spiritual understanding
When I first heard about this work, I was both excited and also extremely cautious. This book will present a challenge to any person who comes in contact with it. When I read it, I was immediately challenged by it, and became uncertain. Only by seeking to hear the quiet whispers of God's Spirit, and by examining the unfolding evidences for the truth of it, as found in the Dead Sea Scrolls, and the books of Enoch, was I able to set aside my fear, and do as Jesus tells us, "Knock and it shall be opened - Seek and you shall find". Sometimes we are good about knocking, or simply asking (praying), but seldom do we SEEK the truth of something with all of our hearts. This books remains sealed, I believe in many ways, to all except those who are willing to become teachable and seek out the truth of it with everything they are, setting aside personal prejudice, tradition and opinions, and instead desire to know the truth above all, even if it is at the expense of the comfort of the familiar. This book has changed the landscape of religion of every faith, and brought me forward into a new spiritual understanding. It has left me feeling like my life before this point has been a wandering in the wilderness, and now I embark on a journey into the promise land itself. As I do so, having a more intimate knowledge God, gained by the revelation of this book, I feel God is walking beside me into a greater understanding. All of Creation is now a beautiful reflection of God himself, and it has left me breathless.

the most light ever
The Lord has let the most light ever into the world with "the sealed portion of the brother of Jared" experience. I would recommend every person on the planet Earth to read this continuously for the rest of your lives unless an even brighter revelation on the love of God comes forth before Christs mellenial reign. enjoy!

The Sealed portion of The Brother of Jared
Although I love anything with knowledge of Enoch, I was a little surprised as how the book went and I still love it. I would recommend for those who are trully searching and not be too critical because a lot of things since 325AD has been changed to reflect those who want to be in authority. The Book is good I don't accept any physical appearances of people because also we know that is another form of control on the appearance of the true people of God. Even in their own writings they say supposedly in a message to J Smith, "they did as their forefathers did"... but it is a good reading, and I believe those who are called will heed. There is a scripture in the bible that says "woe to the scribbes"! So act accordingly because man will in his arrogance always try and supercede TMH. Shaloam

Great work of fiction by a very smart but seriously deluded man
The first 5 star review on here was written by me when I was living in the "community" acting as a publicist for them. I have long since left, and this is my updated review. At one time I investigated this work and thought it might be true. I even moved (for a time) to live in the primitive community set up by its author. For a brief time the small community gained some new members due to interest in the book, but the community now teeters on the brink of complete failure as many of those new recruits, and most of the original, long-standing followers who initially helped found this community, have recently departed. Some were simply disgruntled with the leader and his tactics, while most lost faith in the religion altogether. I enjoyed the book initially, though many aspects of it can be troubling (leaving me with questions). It is what initially got me interested in the group, and why I went to live with them. The book is intriguing on many levels, a great story to be sure, written by a very intelligent man (with an education in psychology), greatly influenced by Native American spiritual beliefs the author was fond of, but he has taken those Native American ideas and mutated them into his own unique vision of God and the world around us. One of the major problems, however, is that in order to believe it's narrative you will have to accept many contradictions to the Bible. It basically teaches that most of our Scriptures are a falsehood. At first, it appears to mainly tear apart the Old Testament, which wasn't as objectionable to me initially... after all, who wants to believe God ever ordered genocide. I still question some of the "history" written in the Old Testament, wondering whether God really told them to do such things. And arguments can be made on both sides. This book uses those doubts and creates an explanation that allows us to throw out all those uncomfortable things... But after closer inspection, and in continuing with this man's teachings and also receiving other "revelations" and manufactured books of scripture the author has since produced, it becomes overwhelmingly apparent that this book, and its religion, are also a direct assault on the New Testament - not just Paul's letters, but even the very heart of the Gospel of Jesus. The book even contradicts the Book of Mormon (part of the author's religious background) on many points, which is sad when you consider that any such belief in a "Sealed Portion" or the "Brother of Jared" only comes from the Book of Mormon in the first place. Living there in his community, the inconsistencies, logical fallacies, contradictions, and fear-based doom's day cult mind-set and manipulative tactics employed by its leader began to slowly shatter any illusions I had as to this book's authenticity. It is a very well-written, imaginative, and thought provoking lie. It is a basic introduction to a journey into a greater and ever growing delusion.
