NOTE

Symbolism of Center vs Borders in Helaman

The Lamanite invasion into the center of the land signifies a shift in focus, moving beyond traditional threats at the borders to attacks on the heart and core of life—homes and families. This analogy emphasizes the need to guard our inner sanctum rather than merely focusing on external dangers. The narrative illustrates how neglecting our center can lead to vulnerabilities, allowing adversarial forces to penetrate our hearts and homes. The shift in strategy from border to center reflects contemporary challenges where troubles often arise from within, particularly in familial relationships. The origins of conflict within families underscore the importance of maintaining strength and protection at the core, as strife often begins in the most intimate circles. This call to action highlights the necessity of building defenses around our central values and relationships, ensuring that the heart remains fortified during times of adversity.
