Who do we seek to please, our fellow men, or God? Nephi left no doubt that it was God that he meant to please, but that it also gave him great pleasure to share the word of God in any and every way he could. His whole purpose in keeping the records that he did was to bring souls to Christ.
The cross-references to the word pleasing lead us to the writings in the New Testament and The Book of Mormon regarding the desire of other prophets to do, write, and say those things that are pleasing to God even if man on earth does not agree.
