The Next Step

If you were able to figure out the anagram from the previous post, you will need the answer to figure out this next step in the puzzle. For those not familiar with book ciphers, a book cipher is a cipher in which the key is some aspect of a book or other piece of text. The book cipher is used to create a message using the letters in words from the book or text such as the "Silent Dogood" Letters in the movie National Treasure.

Here is an example:
Using the following text as the "book cipher" or reference text, create the secret message with the coordinates listed below (line-word-letter).

"That which we persist in doing becomes easy to do; not that the nature of the thing has changed, but that the power to do has increased. Quote by Heber J. Grant”

1-6-5, 1-9-2, 1-10-2, 1-6-1, 3-5-1, 2-10-2, 1-7-1

Answer: Good Job

Now, using the "Official" online version (located on the official website of the publishing organization) of the text that was the solution to the previous post's anagram, and the following indicators (book-chapter-verse-word-letter), decipher the encrypted message by Valentine's Day.  NOTE: the order of the books online isn't indicated, but if you are on the correct website, the books are divided into two columns (left and right) and book 1 starts on top left, book 15 is on the bottom right.  I have made it a little easier on you by correlating separate words with each book, so word one in the message is all found in book one, and so forth.  Good luck!

Religious Anagram

An anagram is a type of word play, the result of rearranging the letters of a word or phrase to produce a new word or phrase, using all the original letters exactly once; e.g., orchestra = carthorse, A decimal point = I'm a dot in place. Usually an anagram is a play on words of the original word or phrase, but not always.

Today's anagram is religious in nature, yet the anagram phrase doesn't really have anything to do with the original phrase. In order to figure it out, it might help to know that the object of the original phrase (3 words) is affiliated with The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (see http://www.mormon.org). Good luck.

Welcome and Enjoy

For a while now, I've been intrigued by the art of cryptology, or hiding information, so I've created this blog as an outlet to explore and create. I'd like to post weekly puzzles, anagrams, codes, etc. for people of a like mind to solve. I hope you enjoy.
