I loved this for so many reasons that would take too long to go into, but the timing of me coming upon this podcast is no less than a miracle and answer to my morning prayer. Thank you for sharing your insight! And please do not apologize for getting choked up and teary eyed! That is a gift of the Spirit, and the manifestation of what you are saying is true! We must never apologize for being touched by the Spirit!
LaRie, what a beautiful message you've left. I so appreciate your tenderness and kindness. Bless you for you. And welcome to the channel. It's a privilege to have you here.
I have a chronic illness: chronic fatigue syndrome. I also suffer from seasonal advective disorder, in other words,seasonal depression. I have been recovering from major jaw surgery and before that I struggled with stage four cancer for 3 1/2-4 years. At the moment my cancer is stable. I believe that I am doing the best that I can. If I push myself too hard I get sick for several days. I just lay in bed, unable to move. I’m pretty desperate to get myself up and running again but my body has different ideas about what I can and cannot do. I appreciate your podcast, but sometimes it’s a bit discouraging. My spirit is definitely ready and willing but the body has more control than my spirit. Please remember me in your prayers. Thank you. I have asked the Lord to heal me many times from this affliction. His answer is that my faith is strong enough but it’s not his will to heal me. So this is what I have learned from my experiences: Sometimes the Lord says “No. Have faith. Endure to the end.” My request for your prayers is that I can Let God Prevail. He has his reasons for our lives to be the way they are. Let God Prevail is the only way we should live our lives.
Myself and two of my daughters have had health issues slow us way down for four years and more. When I've prayed for things to change or if I need to change things I continue to hear "rest". Because of this I've been able to be in the right place at the right time to help my family and others, where I wouldn't have been able to otherwise. There's much more d😢detail, but I just want to help validate that God is most likely putting you just where you're needed for your own learning and healing and others! Stay strong by taking this time to study scriptures and general conference talks etc. that the Prophet has told us to. And watching sweet precious videos like this one! 💖🙏🙏🙏💖
Bless you sister!!! Keep your chin up & Remember that Jesus Christ suffered for you & for me & for the world so that He would know how to succor us. He knows what each of us is going through and He Loves us so much!!! And thank you for sharing with us about your many struggles. What a pure testimony you must have of our Savior to have endured all you have and are still struggling and yet your heart & focus is still on the Lord. Thank you again for sharing. I am praying for you!!!
❤❤❤❤you are a very strong person!!!I'm not God,,,but I pray for you 🙏 I'm a sinner but I have faith in God Almighty He is my Father and your Father too,,my father passed away 2014,,,he is the kindness man I've ever known,,,may God bless you 🙏❤
Oh my word... I heard this quote and committed it to memory. It had such a profound effect on me. I can't tell you how many times I have shared it and pondered it. I use " what if" any time I know something but want others to be open to the possibility. From this day and her words "what if you learned..." I thought... He is here." Then I dismiss it. I have honestly wondered if He is here already meeting. I had a very unique experience. After Conference, I changed my screensaver with a beautiful image of the Savior with the words "I Am Here." I look for Him everywhere I go. I have increased my Temple attendance knowing sincere seekers will find the Savior in the Temple. I believe we will see Him. I like words and phrases. This video really spoke to me. Thank you so much for sharing this. Do not apologize for being emotional. This is an exciting and emotional event. I do believe those that desire and praying for eyes to see and ears to hear, that sense a bit of urgency and desperation are receiving glimpses. Do you remember when Light the World shared a message at Times Square. It was dark and then the lights, the music and the story appeared on all those large screens. Towards the end one screen read "I am the light of the world -Jesus Christ" The scripture reference came after His name. In my heart, I felt "He just introduced Himself and signed His name" This is the greatest time to be alive. I can't wait to see what is next.
In October 2022, the Prophet said in his "Overcome the World" talk that the Lord was looking for a people that He could return to. A people that had chosen Him above all else and willing to put him first. I am seeing many that are excited, enthusiastic, and passionate about choosing Heavenly Father and Jesus above all else. Messages such as the one of Cindy Sue in this video are finding a way into their hearts which makes me wonder if they will be the people He returns to to help Him before He comes to the world when all flesh shall see Him and every knee bows. I am desperate to be one of those true followers!
❤....Just wanted you to know.... while listening and watching your video this morning, THE SPIRIT FILLED THE ROOM !!!! MY BODY HAD A WONDERFUL PEACEFUL SENSATION..... Dear Sister, thank you for sharing the POWERFUL TRUTH !!!
We will find Jesus in the temple. They are asking us to step into our potential and “see” and transform into who we need to be to receive Him NOW! Those who are anticipating Him need to actually prepare and receive Him, so that when he comes in his fullness, we will withstand the glory and intensity of that day.
After listening to your message, I just sat back and let the words pour over me, “What if Jesus has already been here among us?” It changes everything doesn’t it? I have been listening to so many “delicious” podcasts, trying to sanctify, purify and cleanse my body, mind, heart and soul. I want to be ready to receive my Savior when he presents himself. There is so much to do. I want to be desperate for His return! Thank you so much for your heart-felt testimony. I feel your love for Jesus Christ in every word you utter. You are a gift.
Thank you for your tender thoughts, @kerrywickman5904. What an amazing individual you are, and I am sure the Lord has such great things in store for you. Your words remind me of Colossians 3:23-24: "And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men; knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ." This is what you are exemplifying so beautifully. Bless you for your goodness!
I feel he’ll be here soon if not already. I had spoken to a man in the UK who said “he is here now” and I got chills. I could absolutely see him being here already teaching and administering like he did before. I’m hopeful his return is soon
I'm so like you, Jamie! I'm so looking forward to his return. He is so merciful and kind and patient and forgiving - my heart just melts as I think of the privilege it would be to experience what is joyfully ahead. Thank you for sharing.
I loved President Nelson’s talk, and what he said about not missing the majesty of this moment. I have thought on this a lot. I had not heard Sister Nelson’s talk, and am so glad you shared. I am really looking forward to studying the Doctrine and Covenants next year!
Your video caught my eye this evening. I have never seen or watched you before. Thank you for your beautiful testimony and this heart piercing message. I watch all around me as members are falling away over really strange and in my mind, very small details. And I want so much to tell them……Wake up! Wake up and see that you are going to find yourself on the wrong side of the line! We don’t have time for that, get back over here, the Savior is coming! But you can’t. And when I do, I’m told my message is hurtful. Yes, the truth can be hurtful if you are on the wrong side of it. Your message is beautiful and SO timely! ❤
@ioneheine8961 Your words meant so much to me. I could feel the love you have for so many. Thank you for sharing. Your prayers of kindness and compassion for wellbeing for all will bring so much good through your tiny acts of service and unconditional love. Thank you for caring so deeply for so many and for being here.
Thank you. When we first see something, we see a limited amount. When we “ look again” we see more. Look again. That has been a message for me. The Lord is merciful to those who seek Him.
Oh. My. Goodness. You have pulled together so many things that I’ve noted as being certainly critical but didn’t know how to pull them together. You’ve done this for me. Thank you. Seriously.
Yes, yes and yes! My spiritual eyes are watching every day how prophecy is playing out. I have "awakened to our awful situation" as the book of Ether quotes. If you haven't developed this ability pray for the wisdom to see it! Then hold onto your hats because its going to come out like a firehose. It's so exciting!
I have read that quote by Sister Nelson many times..and love thinking about it! Our current Prophet is pleading with us to open our eyes and prepare NOW. Are we listening?!? 💙
Your negative unbelieving spirit is holding you back from feeling and knowing the truth. Russell M. Nelson is the mouth piece of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ right now on the earth and he does have the faith to see Him. @@bobicusrex
I always wonder why some people hang out in places like this. I think it's so interesting that Sister Nelson has said so many things that have helped me see the truth. The story about asking people what tribe they were from and to find almost all of them in one meeting! Gather away Saints. She told us to get on the ark at what I believe was one of the large meetings that the world didn't know about.
Thank you for posting this, sister. I'm Relief Society President, and I'm preparing myself for our Stake Relief Society conference coming up in two weeks. I am going to share sister Nelson's quote. Very beautiful, and fits perfectly with my topic❤.
The message gave me the feeling that I may be left behind, as Jesus Christ is already actively and privately preparing for His glorious Second Coming by meeting with selected faithful congregations. I wondered if I might not be counted worthy to attend these preparatory meetings or if I might not have enough faith to even be aware of these important events. This realization impressed upon me that my discipleship must be my highest priority. I should devote time each week to learning about His Atonement. As I study and learn of Him, I feel that I shouldn’t approach it out of desperation as a sinner, but with meekness, gentleness, temperance, and peace. Trusting in the Lord, who is full of grace and truth, I am confident He will help me keep the commitments I desire to make today.
@davidtamus, your words are SO powerful as you state: "As I study and learn of Him, I feel that I shouldn’t approach it out of desperation as a sinner, but with meekness, gentleness, temperance, and peace. Trusting in the Lord, who is full of grace and truth, I am confident He will help me keep the commitments I desire to make today." Oh, such words of truth! And I've had to reflect long and hard on this myself - so wanting to be what the Lord would have me be yet so full of awareness of not-there-yet. I'm thinking your words have blessed many of us today. Thank you for being an exemplary follower of Christ and for giving such a touching moment in your mention of the results of studying and learning of Him.
I really enjoy your videos and the spirit you bring. I love that quote from Sis. Nelson! When I read it it sure got my attention, along with all the other things our leaders are teaching us. These are exciting times!
Thank you, I feel your sweet and beautiful testimony. The spirit speaks through you. President Nelson has been preparing us and teaching us for what many of us will live to see. I love your insights, thank you for your efforts in making this video ❤️
I am so glad I stayed and listened to this video. It is exactly what I needed to shake myself awake from being so comfortable and from drifting even further into passive discipleship. Thank you for the tone of urgency and call to consider that which is important.
Oh, what a blessing to have you here, @MarieN.Bataillard-l8l! I'm so glad you love the Lord and for your example of looking to stay awake and be preparing for His coming. Thank you for that.
I just happened upon your message tonight. I like the things you point out in both Sister Nelson and president Nelson's talks. I'm going to go and listen to them again. Thank you so much for your testimony and this message. ❤
Thank you for sharing this! I heard President Nelson's message and felt it, and have been wondering how many heard this prophecy. I try everyday to be good. And I am thankful that I bumped onto this video.
Oh, I'm so glad, @elizabethsetlhako1062! How wonderful to read your words and to feel the beauty of your soul when you shared, "I try everyday to be good." This is inspiring, and I'm so grateful for you and for taking the time to share your thoughts. They've brought great uplift in ways I'm not quite sure how to share.
This is only the second video of yours that I have heard, but I love your sweet inspired words and thoughts. I subscribed after hearing one video. I look forward to hearing more from you. 😊
This goes along with my realization that desperate prayers are the ones that get answered faster. For example, I would often pray for my declining mother, but it wasn't until I got desperate that living arrangements for her last few months or years opened up and became a reality. Casual doesn't cut it.
I do believe the Savior has met with our church leaders. Not long before that talk the Prophet and Apostles were just giddy at a broadcast, I believe they had met with the Savior then.
We are not the only ones. Key. Alma 4 always reminds me. And many more places that we are often the stumbling block. Why? That’s what I want to learn. How I can be more open and loving towards all Gods children. Sometimes I feel like Mormons think God is Mormon. Nope. He’s for ALL and so many places and people are preparing beautifully.
Thank you for sharing this video. It touched me deeply and the Spirit testified of the truthfulness of this to me. Never apologize for caring and feeling deeply.
You have such a tender heart, @Glen.Danielsen! And while I think she might defer at that title, I think she'd give you such a big hug because of your sweet kindness and love for the Lord!!! You have such a good heart of love! Thank you for your presence here, and especially for the love you share with those around you. The world needs your light you bring.
First time stumbling across your videos. I’m excited to hear your video on the ten virgins. I have been a little obsessed with it since conference. I have no idea why I’ve been so prompted to focus on it. I’m RS president in my Ward and I’ve even called our next sixth month discussion focus in RS : Preparing our Lamps for the Saviour’s Return.’ Even looking at little lamp gifts for my family for our Christmas Eve family devotional 😂 told you I was obsessed
Oh, that's wonderful, @Tink-bell (and I love your username :) Yes, I'm releasing another video on the ten virgins on Saturday at 3:33 pm (PT). In the interim, here is the link to the last one I did as a deep dive on the ten virgins - as the first in the series! ruclips.net/video/2tEvSuh1gYs/видео.html I love that this is your focus for your sisters! I'm feeling the same urgency to really study the ten virgins to understand what the Lord would have me understand. This is such an amazing time in which we're living, and we are so blessed to have all these resources! Thank you for sharing. I'd love to hear more of what you do for your sisters!
Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video. Thank you for your testimony and your light. And to any people who would speak against this woman, let me remind you that she was speaking about what the prophet and his wife said. Do you know better than the prophet? Even if she were wrong, what is she hurting? The worst that would happen is that she would prepare people for the inevitable day that each of us will die. We will meet Christ then. I’m excited to see him! But she is not wrong. She is just speaking about what our living prophet said and also his wife.
My thoughts as I watched this and read the comments: at first I was skeptical but then I thought the Lord said the Temple is his house thereby each Temple he accepts and visits and I know that there are several temples where the locals are fighting against its being built and then the scripture came to mind the one that says no unhallowed hand can stop the work and pictured what that would look like in the town meetings where the work needs to move forward where there's opposition currently happening and I read those who have been sent to represent the church and their efforts to testify the truth that it touches and changes the minds of those in opposition when they finally get a chance to speak. I pray that that is what happens in each and every case I do know that the Lord knows what he's doing and he will do whatever it takes to get these temples to be built rather than to not be built. I do picture also that those places that don't have opposition I generally outside of this country what does that say about this promised land and the people in it what will happen? There is a cleansing going on within the church itself it's not necessarily all that subtle either which is also been prophesied of.
I haven't read all of the comments, but what is missing is that we all should prepare as much as is physically possible to attend the temple and do the work for our deceased ancestors. The gathering of Israel is literally our responsibility if we want to receive the blessing of obtaining the Celestial Kingdom. That is why so many temples are being built. Please do not skip over this point. We cannot be saved if we don't perform the saving ordinances for our ancestors.
Jesus Christ and bringing people to him is my highest priority. Jesus told me he was coming back in 2015. I do believe he will be here by 2034. I've studied, I've prayed to know and he has shown me things that have already happened and are going to happen soon. Be in his temple often and pray often to get our hearts and minds aligned with his. Do not be afraid, yet fear the Lord and learn to walk with him daily like Enoch and his city. We are to build Zion with their help.
What’s happening before our eyes is the New Jerusalem coming down out of heaven being established with all the temples and God is writing the new name on our foreheads.
I feel desperate right now to share that I know God will hold us accountable if we don’t do all in our power to uphold the constitution that He inspired for His work of salvation to go to every nation, kindred and tongue. He will hold us accountable if we do not do all we can to fight for the voiceless (His spirit children that He sends to earth to gain a body) and preserve the sanctity of life! All of this is currently on the ballot in our nation and we will incur His wrath and lose His grace if we do not do all that is in our power. He called us to be salt of the earth and if we lose our savor, we will be trampled under foot, we will lose our nation and it will be given to others. I pray that we are awakening to our awful situation and that we are not being lulled and pacified by the devil to think “all is well in Zion”. All is not well, the constitution is hanging by a thread! I feel a desperation to speak up about this. In order to be a people who can prepare the world for the second coming, we MUST continue to have our freedoms that are guaranteed in our constitution or we will not be able to carry forth the work of salvation!! Be a light on the hill, we can no longer just be a light to our family and friends, we need to be a light to the whole WORLD in order to prepare the world for the second coming!!! Raise your voices on social media for freedom!! Vote for the candidates who uphold the constitution and not merely the rights to make it legal to commit sin!
Your words: "we need to be a light to the whole WORLD in order to prepare the world for the second coming." Such a great truth, @janeenburke! Thank you for having such a deep and caring heart.
In these terms we could say that the first vision is part of the second coming. President Nelson stated that the temples were to help prepare for the 2nd coming, so does that mean they will be completed prior to the second coming? A temple was also announced for Russia clear back in 2018.
As we think about Mt 25 we have to wonder how 5 of the virgins could have lamps & yet have NO interest (Mosiah 4.18) to ever put oil in them to choose to live without the light right there for them to DO (Jhn 7.17) if only they were willing (dc 64.33,34; 1.11)!?!
Revelation 1:7 Behold, He is coming with clouds, and every eye will see Him, even they who pierced Him. And all the tribes of the earth will mourn because of Him. Even so, Amen Matthew 24:23-25 11:34 "So if anyone tells you, `There he is, out in the desert,' do not go out; or, `Here he is, in the inner rooms,' do not believe it. For as lightning that comes from the east is visible even in the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man. Isaiah 28:20 King James Version To the law and to the testimony! If they do not speak according to this word, it is because there is no light in them King James Version Acts 1:11 who also said, “Men of Galilee, why do you stand gazing up into heaven? This same Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, will so come in like manner as you saw Him go into heaven.”
I wonder (out loud) if this reading into GA’s comments is similar to Jews looking beyond the mark. We’ve become so obsessed with finding Easter egg warnings about the second coming in their talks we ignore the true message of their talks and “stop living” as Latter Day Saints.
Church members are blessed to have a prophet to praise, worship and adore. He has built many temples where worthy members can train to become gods. Jesus is not with us now and we must follow the prophet only.. Ancient scriptures are unimportant when you have a modern day prophet whose every utterance is the word of god. Stop worrying about the return of Christ and focus your worship on the prophet...
We revear the prophets and listen to what they say, but we should not worship them. That is reserved for deity. Even Jesus qualified people praying to him only because he was present.
Be careful: Unless you are saying that Sister Nelson's "What if..." statement was implying that the meeting at Adam-ondi-Ahman had already happened, her statement did not fulfill the prophecy of D&C 116. If you love words as much as you say, you must be as careful with your own words, what they say and what they imply, as prophets, seers, and revelators are with theirs.
Let's not get ahead of the scriptures. The Lord put the church under condemnation and there is no indication that it has ever come out of it collectively. As a result there is a judgment and scourge to be poured out upon the the members of the church. He states upon my house shall it begin and from my house shall it go forth. 2nd Nephi 27 states that he has covered the heads of the seers because of our wickedness, and because of this he will cause his servant to bring forth the words of Christ, the sealed portion to the LDS gentiles in hopes they will repent as it states in 3rd Nephi 21. He is largely rejected and is marred and the LDS gentiles largely reject and sin against the fulness of the gospel. This is the Lords great and marvelous work as described in 1st Nephi 14:7. After this happens the Lord remembers his covenant to the natural branches of the House of Israel and the gospel is taken back to them, while the gentiles become salt that hath lost its savor and our trodden under foot as it states in 3rd Nephi 16. The few LDS gentiles who repent will become the nursing kings and queens to the House of Israel and assist them in building Zion. This is when the House of Israel is actually gathered back to the lands of their inheritance and they shall inherit the desolate cities and homes of the now destroyed gentiles in America. All we are doing now is making known the covenants to the remnant of Jacob and the Jews. We are not gathering them, just alerting them and preparing them so that they will have an understanding of who they are and what they are promised when the Lord brings forth his servant who will gather them.
Apparently we under stand the scriptures a little differently. 2 Nephi 27 Chapter heading "Darkness and apostasy will cover the earth in the last days-The Book of Mormon will come forth-Three witnesses will testify of the book-The learned man will say he cannot read the sealed book-The Lord will do a marvelous work and a wonder" this chapter is about the opening of a new dispensation and the Book of Mormon coming forth. It gives the prophecy (already fulfilled) about the 'learned man' who verifies the authenticity of the characters and the translation, but asks to see the book. After being told that part of it is sealed and it was received from an angel, he tears up his certificate etc. The chapter does go on to say that the Lord will reveal the sealed portion in His own due time. It does not say when that will be. There is really no such thing as an 'LDS gentile'. When someone is baptized into the restored church of Jesus Christ by the proper authority, either they were already of the house of Israel, or they are adopted in at baptism and are then of the house of Israel. 3 Nephi Chapter 21 "Israel will be gathered when the Book of Mormon comes forth-The Gentiles will be established as a free people in America-They will be saved if they believe and obey; otherwise, they will be cut off and destroyed-Israel will build the New Jerusalem, and the lost tribes will return. About A.D. 34." Again, this is about the Book of Mormon being brought forth to a gentile nation (America, before the restoration of the priesthood and church) and it's power to bring both the Gentiles and the seed of Joseph (native peoples) into the newly restored church. The servant who is rejected and marred is generally believed to be Joseph Smith, who was tarred and feathered at the hands of the gentile mobs. The marvelous work and wonder spoken of in 1 Nephi 14:7 is also about the Book of Mormon coming forth. See also: 1 Nephi 13:35 and 22:8. 3 Nephi Chapter 16 "Jesus will visit others of the lost sheep of Israel-In the latter days the gospel will go to the Gentiles and then to the house of Israel-The Lord’s people will see eye to eye when He brings again Zion. About A.D. 34." The people being trodden down in this chapter are the wicked Gentiles (Americans) who refuse to repent and turn to God. They will be trodden down by His people, the house of Israel (this includes the tribe of Ephraim - the lineage of many members of the church in North America). His covenant people will be powerful because of their righteousness and purity. What is it that will start upon His church and from there go forth? The purification process necessary to produce the power He wants them to have. Look at how many people stopped following the prophet about 4 years ago. We are being sifted and tested. The inner vessel is being cleansed. We are gathering Israel. President Nelson has been encouraging and focusing on this for 7 years! The gathering IS bringing them back to the covenants of their fathers or introducing them to the covenant path (for actual Gentiles). The gathering began with the Book of Mormon, and will continue until Christ returns, at which point He will direct our efforts to gather all the remaining people into Israel throughout the millennium. I highly recommend the BYU Scripture Citation Index. It can help us to understand what the verses mean by showing when they have been referenced by prophets.
I choose to listen to our modern day prophet and his apostles. I choose to listen to the spirit. I choose to listen to the patriarchal blessings of many many people who are told that they will live to see the second coming. Those who say it is far away need to look at themselves and evaluate why they don’t want it to happen soon. Why leave comments about your own understandings and interpretations when there is a living prophet who has spoken so clearly in conference about the second coming? I highly encourage anyone who thinks the second coming can’t happen soon to open your mind and heart and pray to know. It’s coming. And it’s coming soon. ❤
I agree with you completely. The Book of Mormon and the prophet Joseph Smith referred to US as the Gentiles. We are EPHRAIM mixed among the nations (Gentiles). We who are faithful will be the foster fathers and the nursing mothers. Kings and Queens of the Gentiles!
@@tamichristiansen387thank you so much for sharing these scriptures to show the truth! I was thinking a lot like what you shared but didn't know where to start to clarify things!
The LDS church has and is purchasing commercial properties on a regular basis for $200 million or more each on a regular basis. Does the savior (creator of heaven and earth) have need of those buildings in order to accomplish his work? Wendy has misled you. Anyone who say the lord is here or there or implies he has come is deceiving you. When the Lord comes he will come in unmistakable glory and not in secret.
We are not called the LDS church. We are called The Church of Jesus Christ of latter-day Saints thank you very much. Nobody is saying that Christ will come in secret. Get real! Like can any man or entity can really stop Jesus Christ from coming? Of course not. Our job is to prepare ourselves well. Stop fighting amongst each other. Love all ppl and follow his command and keep our sacred covenants we promised to keep.
@ Wendy is implying that he has already returned. Why do do feel the need to correct the name. If other supposed prophets were still alive you would be happy to be called Mormon. Wendy and RMN have to all confused.
I loved this for so many reasons that would take too long to go into, but the timing of me coming upon this podcast is no less than a miracle and answer to my morning prayer. Thank you for sharing your insight! And please do not apologize for getting choked up and teary eyed! That is a gift of the Spirit, and the manifestation of what you are saying is true! We must never apologize for being touched by the Spirit!
LaRie, what a beautiful message you've left. I so appreciate your tenderness and kindness. Bless you for you. And welcome to the channel. It's a privilege to have you here.
I have a chronic illness: chronic fatigue syndrome. I also suffer from seasonal advective disorder, in other words,seasonal depression. I have been recovering from major jaw surgery and before that I struggled with stage four cancer for 3 1/2-4 years. At the moment my cancer is stable. I believe that I am doing the best that I can. If I push myself too hard I get sick for several days. I just lay in bed, unable to move. I’m pretty desperate to get myself up and running again but my body has different ideas about what I can and cannot do. I appreciate your podcast, but sometimes it’s a bit discouraging. My spirit is definitely ready and willing but the body has more control than my spirit. Please remember me in your prayers. Thank you. I have asked the Lord to heal me many times from this affliction. His answer is that my faith is strong enough but it’s not his will to heal me. So this is what I have learned from my experiences: Sometimes the Lord says “No. Have faith. Endure to the end.” My request for your prayers is that I can Let God Prevail. He has his reasons for our lives to be the way they are. Let God Prevail is the only way we should live our lives.
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
🙏🙏🙏
Myself and two of my daughters have had health issues slow us way down for four years and more. When I've prayed for things to change or if I need to change things I continue to hear "rest". Because of this I've been able to be in the right place at the right time to help my family and others, where I wouldn't have been able to otherwise. There's much more d😢detail, but I just want to help validate that God is most likely putting you just where you're needed for your own learning and healing and others! Stay strong by taking this time to study scriptures and general conference talks etc. that the Prophet has told us to. And watching sweet precious videos like this one! 💖🙏🙏🙏💖
Bless you sister!!!
Keep your chin up & Remember that Jesus Christ suffered for you & for me & for the world so that He would know how to succor us. He knows what each of us is going through and He Loves us so much!!! And thank you for sharing with us about your many struggles. What a pure testimony you must have of our Savior to have endured all you have and are still struggling and yet your heart & focus is still on the Lord. Thank you again for sharing. I am praying for you!!!
❤❤❤❤you are a very strong person!!!I'm not God,,,but I pray for you 🙏 I'm a sinner but I have faith in God Almighty He is my Father and your Father too,,my father passed away 2014,,,he is the kindness man I've ever known,,,may God bless you 🙏❤
Oh my word... I heard this quote and committed it to memory. It had such a profound effect on me. I can't tell you how many times I have shared it and pondered it. I use " what if" any time I know something but want others to be open to the possibility. From this day and her words "what if you learned..." I thought... He is here." Then I dismiss it. I have honestly wondered if He is here already meeting. I had a very unique experience. After Conference, I changed my screensaver with a beautiful image of the Savior with the words "I Am Here." I look for Him everywhere I go. I have increased my Temple attendance knowing sincere seekers will find the Savior in the Temple. I believe we will see Him.
I like words and phrases. This video really spoke to me. Thank you so much for sharing this.
Do not apologize for being emotional. This is an exciting and emotional event. I do believe those that desire and praying for eyes to see and ears to hear, that sense a bit of urgency and desperation are receiving glimpses.
Do you remember when Light the World shared a message at Times Square. It was dark and then the lights, the music and the story appeared on all those large screens. Towards the end one screen read "I am the light of the world -Jesus Christ" The scripture reference came after His name. In my heart, I felt "He just introduced Himself and signed His name"
This is the greatest time to be alive. I can't wait to see what is next.

In October 2022, the Prophet said in his "Overcome the World" talk that the Lord was looking for a people that He could return to. A people that had chosen Him above all else and willing to put him first. I am seeing many that are excited, enthusiastic, and passionate about choosing Heavenly Father and Jesus above all else. Messages such as the one of Cindy Sue in this video are finding a way into their hearts which makes me wonder if they will be the people He returns to to help Him before He comes to the world when all flesh shall see Him and every knee bows. I am desperate to be one of those true followers!
I'm seeing so many too!
❤....Just wanted you to know.... while listening and watching your video this morning, THE SPIRIT FILLED THE ROOM !!!! MY BODY HAD A WONDERFUL PEACEFUL SENSATION..... Dear Sister, thank you for sharing the POWERFUL TRUTH !!!
We will find Jesus in the temple. They are asking us to step into our potential and “see” and transform into who we need to be to receive Him NOW! Those who are anticipating Him need to actually prepare and receive Him, so that when he comes in his fullness, we will withstand the glory and intensity of that day.
After listening to your message, I just sat back and let the words pour over me, “What if Jesus has already been here among us?” It changes everything doesn’t it? I have been listening to so many “delicious” podcasts, trying to sanctify, purify and cleanse my body, mind, heart and soul. I want to be ready to receive my Savior when he presents himself. There is so much to do. I want to be desperate for His return!
Thank you so much for your heart-felt testimony. I feel your love for Jesus Christ in every word you utter. You are a gift.
Thank you for your tender thoughts, @kerrywickman5904. What an amazing individual you are, and I am sure the Lord has such great things in store for you. Your words remind me of Colossians 3:23-24: "And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men; knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ." This is what you are exemplifying so beautifully. Bless you for your goodness!
I feel he’ll be here soon if not already. I had spoken to a man in the UK who said “he is here now” and I got chills. I could absolutely see him being here already teaching and administering like he did before. I’m hopeful his return is soon
I'm so like you, Jamie! I'm so looking forward to his return. He is so merciful and kind and patient and forgiving - my heart just melts as I think of the privilege it would be to experience what is joyfully ahead. Thank you for sharing.
If so, I wonder where the large gatherings are being held? Maybe its souls on both sides of the veil and happening in temples?
I loved President Nelson’s talk, and what he said about not missing the majesty of this moment. I have thought on this a lot. I had not heard Sister Nelson’s talk, and am so glad you shared. I am really looking forward to studying the Doctrine and Covenants next year!
Your video caught my eye this evening. I have never seen or watched you before. Thank you for your beautiful testimony and this heart piercing message. I watch all around me as members are falling away over really strange and in my mind, very small details. And I want so much to tell them……Wake up! Wake up and see that you are going to find yourself on the wrong side of the line! We don’t have time for that, get back over here, the Savior is coming! But you can’t. And when I do, I’m told my message is hurtful. Yes, the truth can be hurtful if you are on the wrong side of it. Your message is beautiful and SO timely! ❤
@ioneheine8961 Your words meant so much to me. I could feel the love you have for so many. Thank you for sharing. Your prayers of kindness and compassion for wellbeing for all will bring so much good through your tiny acts of service and unconditional love. Thank you for caring so deeply for so many and for being here.
Thank you. When we first see something, we see a limited amount. When we “ look again” we see more. Look again. That has been a message for me. The Lord is merciful to those who seek Him.
I love how you word this, "Look again." That's very powerful, @rayf8918
Oh. My. Goodness. You have pulled together so many things that I’ve noted as being certainly critical but didn’t know how to pull them together. You’ve done this for me. Thank you. Seriously.
@jenicacogdill4088 Your words meant a lot to me. Thank you.
Yes, yes and yes! My spiritual eyes are watching every day how prophecy is playing out. I have "awakened to our awful situation" as the book of Ether quotes. If you haven't developed this ability pray for the wisdom to see it! Then hold onto your hats because its going to come out like a firehose. It's so exciting!
We really are living during incredible times, aren't we!
I have read that quote by Sister Nelson many times..and love thinking about it! Our current Prophet is pleading with us to open our eyes and prepare NOW. Are we listening?!? 💙
@@bobicusrexThat’s one opinion. Not mine though❤
@@marlenej7951 not mine either! 😊
Bob you are crazy 😊
Your negative unbelieving spirit is holding you back from feeling and knowing the truth. Russell M. Nelson is the mouth piece of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ right now on the earth and he does have the faith to see Him. @@bobicusrex
I always wonder why some people hang out in places like this.
I think it's so interesting that Sister Nelson has said so many things that have helped me see the truth. The story about asking people what tribe they were from and to find almost all of them in one meeting! Gather away Saints. She told us to get on the ark at what I believe was one of the large meetings that the world didn't know about.
Thank you for posting this, sister. I'm Relief Society President, and I'm preparing myself for our Stake Relief Society conference coming up in two weeks. I am going to share sister Nelson's quote. Very beautiful, and fits perfectly with my topic❤.
The message gave me the feeling that I may be left behind, as Jesus Christ is already actively and privately preparing for His glorious Second Coming by meeting with selected faithful congregations. I wondered if I might not be counted worthy to attend these preparatory meetings or if I might not have enough faith to even be aware of these important events. This realization impressed upon me that my discipleship must be my highest priority. I should devote time each week to learning about His Atonement. As I study and learn of Him, I feel that I shouldn’t approach it out of desperation as a sinner, but with meekness, gentleness, temperance, and peace. Trusting in the Lord, who is full of grace and truth, I am confident He will help me keep the commitments I desire to make today.
@davidtamus, your words are SO powerful as you state: "As I study and learn of Him, I feel that I shouldn’t approach it out of desperation as a sinner, but with meekness, gentleness, temperance, and peace. Trusting in the Lord, who is full of grace and truth, I am confident He will help me keep the commitments I desire to make today." Oh, such words of truth! And I've had to reflect long and hard on this myself - so wanting to be what the Lord would have me be yet so full of awareness of not-there-yet. I'm thinking your words have blessed many of us today. Thank you for being an exemplary follower of Christ and for giving such a touching moment in your mention of the results of studying and learning of Him.
I can’t wait! I hope every day for Jesus to come and the millennium to begin.
First time watching; mama of ten and huge fan of everything Sister Nelson says. Thank you for these thoughts today.☀️
I really enjoy your videos and the spirit you bring. I love that quote from Sis. Nelson! When I read it it sure got my attention, along with all the other things our leaders are teaching us. These are exciting times!
"Awesome, I think he was already here for some of His sheep, written down in His Book, just keep on going dear Sr.😇👍🏻🙏"
I have thought this many times.. thank you..
Thank you, I feel your sweet and beautiful testimony. The spirit speaks through you. President Nelson has been preparing us and teaching us for what many of us will live to see. I love your insights, thank you for your efforts in making this video ❤️
Thank you dear sister. How I love pondering this beautiful conversation! 🙏❤️❤️🙏
Your heart is so soft. Thank you for sharing this 🩷
Your kindness has really touched me, Jackie. Thank you. And thank you for all the good you do!
Sister never apologize for feeling and passing the spirit on to us and especially me at this very moment. Thank you for your study.
Thank you for your kind words.
Thank you so much, I can't wait to hear more.❤
I am so glad I stayed and listened to this video. It is exactly what I needed to shake myself awake from being so comfortable and from drifting even further into passive discipleship. Thank you for the tone of urgency and call to consider that which is important.
Oh, what a blessing to have you here, @MarieN.Bataillard-l8l! I'm so glad you love the Lord and for your example of looking to stay awake and be preparing for His coming. Thank you for that.
I just happened upon your message tonight. I like the things you point out in both Sister Nelson and president Nelson's talks. I'm going to go and listen to them again. Thank you so much for your testimony and this message. ❤
Love this! You hold your emotions so well, don’t apologize! Great content!
Oh, such a sweet comment, @Kathysfootprints. Thank you so much. That meant a lot.
Thank you. I love this.
Thank you for sharing this! I heard President Nelson's message and felt it, and have been wondering how many heard this prophecy. I try everyday to be good. And I am thankful that I bumped onto this video.
Oh, I'm so glad, @elizabethsetlhako1062! How wonderful to read your words and to feel the beauty of your soul when you shared, "I try everyday to be good." This is inspiring, and I'm so grateful for you and for taking the time to share your thoughts. They've brought great uplift in ways I'm not quite sure how to share.
I love words as well . I use the etymology app and also membean for root words. It often proves fascinating. Thank you so much for all of this .
Oh, my, I didn't know about those apps! Thank you, @sacredsolutions7720. Wow, what a gift you just gave. Bless you for being here!
This is only the second video of yours that I have heard, but I love your sweet inspired words and thoughts. I subscribed after hearing one video. I look forward to hearing more from you. 😊
Getting emotional is the Spirit testifying truth, you my dear are beautiful ❤Thank you❣️
This goes along with my realization that desperate prayers are the ones that get answered faster. For example, I would often pray for my declining mother, but it wasn't until I got desperate that living arrangements for her last few months or years opened up and became a reality. Casual doesn't cut it.
Thank you for sharing, @rejoyce57. What a touching experience. Bless you and your sweet family!
Love it. I also read dictionaries, and encyclopedias, too. I also loved this talk and wondered if she was sharing bread crumbs!
So,beautiful. Thank you for sharing your lovely expressions of this glorious message.
@kristinearchibald6264 Thank you for your kind words!
Thank you for this video, it really did prompt me to take more seriously the things we have been told.
I'm so glad! Thank you for you!
I do believe the Savior has met with our church leaders. Not long before that talk the Prophet and Apostles were just giddy at a broadcast, I believe they had met with the Savior then.
I truly agree with you 😮
Thank you so much for sharing this, brought the spirit and tears to my eyes today. 🤍
Thank you for doing this work and putting these things together.
We are not the only ones. Key. Alma 4 always reminds me. And many more places that we are often the stumbling block. Why? That’s what I want to learn. How I can be more open and loving towards all Gods children. Sometimes I feel like Mormons think God is Mormon. Nope. He’s for ALL and so many places and people are preparing beautifully.
Thank you for sharing this video. It touched me deeply and the Spirit testified of the truthfulness of this to me. Never apologize for caring and feeling deeply.
That is very kind of you, @jennamc6537. Thank you for your tender words and reminder that feeling deeply and caring are needed.
Thank you for this! 🙏🏼
Thank you for sharing. It changed my perspective.
Bless you, @louizesmith6909. It's so good to have you at this channel!
Sister C, thanks utterly much for posting this.
I think Sister Wendy Watson Nelson is Zion’s prophetess. Bright with Light! Thanks again.
You have such a tender heart, @Glen.Danielsen! And while I think she might defer at that title, I think she'd give you such a big hug because of your sweet kindness and love for the Lord!!! You have such a good heart of love! Thank you for your presence here, and especially for the love you share with those around you. The world needs your light you bring.
@ Ty 💛
WOW! Thank you for this!
Thank you. I appreciate you and your presence here!
Thank you so much, Cindy. Really thought-provoking.
Great. Thank you
First time stumbling across your videos. I’m excited to hear your video on the ten virgins. I have been a little obsessed with it since conference. I have no idea why I’ve been so prompted to focus on it. I’m RS president in my Ward and I’ve even called our next sixth month discussion focus in RS : Preparing our Lamps for the Saviour’s Return.’
Even looking at little lamp gifts for my family for our Christmas Eve family devotional 😂 told you I was obsessed
Oh, that's wonderful, @Tink-bell (and I love your username :) Yes, I'm releasing another video on the ten virgins on Saturday at 3:33 pm (PT). In the interim, here is the link to the last one I did as a deep dive on the ten virgins - as the first in the series! ruclips.net/video/2tEvSuh1gYs/видео.html
I love that this is your focus for your sisters! I'm feeling the same urgency to really study the ten virgins to understand what the Lord would have me understand. This is such an amazing time in which we're living, and we are so blessed to have all these resources! Thank you for sharing. I'd love to hear more of what you do for your sisters!
Wow Thank you.
I can really relate to everything you’re saying! 💛
Thank you!
Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video. Thank you for your testimony and your light.
And to any people who would speak against this woman, let me remind you that she was speaking about what the prophet and his wife said. Do you know better than the prophet? Even if she were wrong, what is she hurting? The worst that would happen is that she would prepare people for the inevitable day that each of us will die. We will meet Christ then. I’m excited to see him! But she is not wrong. She is just speaking about what our living prophet said and also his wife.
Thank you for your sweet ways, @lisaengland9193.
Wonderful... Thank you!
Love this! Thank you! 💛💛💛
Great insights. Thank you!
Thank you so much for this wake up call ❤
I am convinced that the entirety of the plan of salvation has its absolute symatry in the story of the 10 virgins and the wedding feast.
Thank you 💕🤗 UK
Thank you❣
God bless
There’s no way to prepare for the 2nd coming except to live by Christ’s teachings, which we should be doing every day already.
Yes! The Savior's beautiful teachings!
❤❤❤❤
I’ve also been thinking about how someone doesn’t know the thief came until he’s already been there and there are signs that he had been there.
What a profound thought, @jenicacogdill4088!
My thoughts as I watched this and read the comments: at first I was skeptical but then I thought the Lord said the Temple is his house thereby each Temple he accepts and visits and I know that there are several temples where the locals are fighting against its being built and then the scripture came to mind the one that says no unhallowed hand can stop the work and pictured what that would look like in the town meetings where the work needs to move forward where there's opposition currently happening and I read those who have been sent to represent the church and their efforts to testify the truth that it touches and changes the minds of those in opposition when they finally get a chance to speak. I pray that that is what happens in each and every case I do know that the Lord knows what he's doing and he will do whatever it takes to get these temples to be built rather than to not be built. I do picture also that those places that don't have opposition I generally outside of this country what does that say about this promised land and the people in it what will happen? There is a cleansing going on within the church itself it's not necessarily all that subtle either which is also been prophesied of.
Oh, @devtinagub I just loved your beautiful words when you said, "I do know that the Lord knows what he's doing." Just so good!
❤
❤🙏
I haven't read all of the comments, but what is missing is that we all should prepare as much as is physically possible to attend the temple and do the work for our deceased ancestors. The gathering of Israel is literally our responsibility if we want to receive the blessing of obtaining the Celestial Kingdom. That is why so many temples are being built. Please do not skip over this point. We cannot be saved if we don't perform the saving ordinances for our ancestors.
I love your reference to temples, @lingall50. Thank you so much!
Then you
❤❤❤
Jesus Christ and bringing people to him is my highest priority. Jesus told me he was coming back in 2015. I do believe he will be here by 2034. I've studied, I've prayed to know and he has shown me things that have already happened and are going to happen soon. Be in his temple often and pray often to get our hearts and minds aligned with his. Do not be afraid, yet fear the Lord and learn to walk with him daily like Enoch and his city. We are to build Zion with their help.
Oh, this is just beautiful that bringing people to the Savior is your highest priority, @rebeccalarson7995! Thank you for the uplift you provide!
What’s happening before our eyes is the New Jerusalem coming down out of heaven being established with all the temples and God is writing the new name on our foreheads.
One wonders how many Presidents shall sit in the chair of Prophet, Seer and Revelator before Jesus returns?
Yes, and if it's many, that means we have even more time to gather others! And if it's our current one, wow, time truly is short!
💝💖💝💖💝💖💝
I feel desperate right now to share that I know God will hold us accountable if we don’t do all in our power to uphold the constitution that He inspired for His work of salvation to go to every nation, kindred and tongue. He will hold us accountable if we do not do all we can to fight for the voiceless (His spirit children that He sends to earth to gain a body) and preserve the sanctity of life! All of this is currently on the ballot in our nation and we will incur His wrath and lose His grace if we do not do all that is in our power. He called us to be salt of the earth and if we lose our savor, we will be trampled under foot, we will lose our nation and it will be given to others. I pray that we are awakening to our awful situation and that we are not being lulled and pacified by the devil to think “all is well in Zion”. All is not well, the constitution is hanging by a thread! I feel a desperation to speak up about this. In order to be a people who can prepare the world for the second coming, we MUST continue to have our freedoms that are guaranteed in our constitution or we will not be able to carry forth the work of salvation!! Be a light on the hill, we can no longer just be a light to our family and friends, we need to be a light to the whole WORLD in order to prepare the world for the second coming!!! Raise your voices on social media for freedom!! Vote for the candidates who uphold the constitution and not merely the rights to make it legal to commit sin!
Your words: "we need to be a light to the whole WORLD in order to prepare the world for the second coming." Such a great truth, @janeenburke! Thank you for having such a deep and caring heart.
In these terms we could say that the first vision is part of the second coming.
President Nelson stated that the temples were to help prepare for the 2nd coming, so does that mean they will be completed prior to the second coming? A temple was also announced for Russia clear back in 2018.
Yes, I think so.
The appearance at Adam Ondi Ahman, whether it has already occurred, or not yet , will be 2nd coming. I feel it has already occurred.
I love words also, but not so many of them that my brain shuts down.
:)
Where do we find the next episode.
Such a great question, @debbiebeck4986. It will be posting this Saturday at 3:33 pm (PT). I'm excited to share what I've found!
Obey Gods Commandments..the commandments of men are not important. Jesus Told the Pharisees 😊❤
@
I did not say that. Jesus Told the Pharisees. “Stop teaching for Doctrine the commandments of men.” You can take it up with Jesus
As we think about Mt 25 we have to wonder how 5 of the virgins could have lamps & yet have NO interest (Mosiah 4.18) to ever put oil in them to choose to live without the light right there for them to DO (Jhn 7.17) if only they were willing (dc 64.33,34; 1.11)!?!
I was thinking how close to the second coming to the world will Adam-on do-shaman occur? Years?, months? days?
Right? Such a great question.
We know that he already appeared in Kirkland to a large group.
You mean to Joseph Smith? What are talking about? I have never heard this… would you be willing to share?
@ the date was April 3, 1836. A large crowd was gathered for the dedication of the Kirkland temple. Don’t know of anything newer.
Kirtland
@ yes, thanks :)
Revelation 1:7
Behold, He is coming with clouds, and every eye will see Him, even they who pierced Him. And all the tribes of the earth will mourn because of Him. Even so, Amen
Matthew 24:23-25
11:34
"So if anyone tells you, `There he is, out in the desert,' do not go out; or, `Here he is, in the inner rooms,' do not believe it. For as lightning that comes from the east is visible even in the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.
Isaiah 28:20
King James Version
To the law and to the testimony! If they do not speak according to this word, it is because there is no light in them
King James Version
Acts 1:11
who also said, “Men of Galilee, why do you stand gazing up into heaven? This same Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, will so come in like manner as you saw Him go into heaven.”
I wonder (out loud) if this reading into GA’s comments is similar to Jews looking beyond the mark. We’ve become so obsessed with finding Easter egg warnings about the second coming in their talks we ignore the true message of their talks and “stop living” as Latter Day Saints.
That is something important to think on. I appreciate you sharing.
Church members are blessed to have a prophet to praise, worship and adore. He has built many temples where worthy members can train to become gods. Jesus is not with us now and we must follow the prophet only.. Ancient scriptures are unimportant when you have a modern day prophet whose every utterance is the word of god. Stop worrying about the return of Christ and focus your worship on the prophet...
We revear the prophets and listen to what they say, but we should not worship them. That is reserved for deity. Even Jesus qualified people praying to him only because he was present.
We don’t worship the prophet
I'm sure the prophet's every utterance is not the word of God.
Only adore Heavenly Father
Be careful: Unless you are saying that Sister Nelson's "What if..." statement was implying that the meeting at Adam-ondi-Ahman had already happened, her statement did not fulfill the prophecy of D&C 116. If you love words as much as you say, you must be as careful with your own words, what they say and what they imply, as prophets, seers, and revelators are with theirs.
Thank you for the feedback. I so want to do well for the channel and to bless lives.
@FamiliesInTheMillennium You will.
In my opinion, yes, the Second Coming is relatively close, but I believe that it will be at least 20 years before it occurs.
Your thinking is wrong… did you not listen to Elder Stevenson?
The ad I had to watch before I got to watch this video was about the shape and tecture of poop.
Oh, my goodness! I don't monetize this channel, so RUclips added that ad in. I'm so sorry! Thank you for letting me know!
@FamiliesInTheMillennium thank you very much
The channel doesn't have control of the ads that randomly appear throughout the message.
@@fernmartine3772 yeah i know but i thought it was hilarious
Let's not get ahead of the scriptures. The Lord put the church under condemnation and there is no indication that it has ever come out of it collectively. As a result there is a judgment and scourge to be poured out upon the the members of the church. He states upon my house shall it begin and from my house shall it go forth. 2nd Nephi 27 states that he has covered the heads of the seers because of our wickedness, and because of this he will cause his servant to bring forth the words of Christ, the sealed portion to the LDS gentiles in hopes they will repent as it states in 3rd Nephi 21. He is largely rejected and is marred and the LDS gentiles largely reject and sin against the fulness of the gospel. This is the Lords great and marvelous work as described in 1st Nephi 14:7.
After this happens the Lord remembers his covenant to the natural branches of the House of Israel and the gospel is taken back to them, while the gentiles become salt that hath lost its savor and our trodden under foot as it states in 3rd Nephi 16. The few LDS gentiles who repent will become the nursing kings and queens to the House of Israel and assist them in building Zion. This is when the House of Israel is actually gathered back to the lands of their inheritance and they shall inherit the desolate cities and homes of the now destroyed gentiles in America.
All we are doing now is making known the covenants to the remnant of Jacob and the Jews. We are not gathering them, just alerting them and preparing them so that they will have an understanding of who they are and what they are promised when the Lord brings forth his servant who will gather them.
Apparently we under stand the scriptures a little differently.
2 Nephi 27 Chapter heading "Darkness and apostasy will cover the earth in the last days-The Book of Mormon will come forth-Three witnesses will testify of the book-The learned man will say he cannot read the sealed book-The Lord will do a marvelous work and a wonder" this chapter is about the opening of a new dispensation and the Book of Mormon coming forth. It gives the prophecy (already fulfilled) about the 'learned man' who verifies the authenticity of the characters and the translation, but asks to see the book. After being told that part of it is sealed and it was received from an angel, he tears up his certificate etc. The chapter does go on to say that the Lord will reveal the sealed portion in His own due time. It does not say when that will be.
There is really no such thing as an 'LDS gentile'. When someone is baptized into the restored church of Jesus Christ by the proper authority, either they were already of the house of Israel, or they are adopted in at baptism and are then of the house of Israel.
3 Nephi Chapter 21 "Israel will be gathered when the Book of Mormon comes forth-The Gentiles will be established as a free people in America-They will be saved if they believe and obey; otherwise, they will be cut off and destroyed-Israel will build the New Jerusalem, and the lost tribes will return. About A.D. 34." Again, this is about the Book of Mormon being brought forth to a gentile nation (America, before the restoration of the priesthood and church) and it's power to bring both the Gentiles and the seed of Joseph (native peoples) into the newly restored church. The servant who is rejected and marred is generally believed to be Joseph Smith, who was tarred and feathered at the hands of the gentile mobs.
The marvelous work and wonder spoken of in 1 Nephi 14:7 is also about the Book of Mormon coming forth. See also: 1 Nephi 13:35 and 22:8.
3 Nephi Chapter 16 "Jesus will visit others of the lost sheep of Israel-In the latter days the gospel will go to the Gentiles and then to the house of Israel-The Lord’s people will see eye to eye when He brings again Zion. About A.D. 34."
The people being trodden down in this chapter are the wicked Gentiles (Americans) who refuse to repent and turn to God. They will be trodden down by His people, the house of Israel (this includes the tribe of Ephraim - the lineage of many members of the church in North America). His covenant people will be powerful because of their righteousness and purity.
What is it that will start upon His church and from there go forth? The purification process necessary to produce the power He wants them to have. Look at how many people stopped following the prophet about 4 years ago. We are being sifted and tested. The inner vessel is being cleansed.
We are gathering Israel. President Nelson has been encouraging and focusing on this for 7 years! The gathering IS bringing them back to the covenants of their fathers or introducing them to the covenant path (for actual Gentiles). The gathering began with the Book of Mormon, and will continue until Christ returns, at which point He will direct our efforts to gather all the remaining people into Israel throughout the millennium.
I highly recommend the BYU Scripture Citation Index. It can help us to understand what the verses mean by showing when they have been referenced by prophets.
The house of Israel you speak of is nothing more than the synagogue of satan. Israel isn’t Israel…
I choose to listen to our modern day prophet and his apostles. I choose to listen to the spirit. I choose to listen to the patriarchal blessings of many many people who are told that they will live to see the second coming. Those who say it is far away need to look at themselves and evaluate why they don’t want it to happen soon. Why leave comments about your own understandings and interpretations when there is a living prophet who has spoken so clearly in conference about the second coming? I highly encourage anyone who thinks the second coming can’t happen soon to open your mind and heart and pray to know. It’s coming. And it’s coming soon. ❤
I agree with you completely. The Book of Mormon and the prophet Joseph Smith referred to US as the Gentiles. We are EPHRAIM mixed among the nations (Gentiles). We who are faithful will be the foster fathers and the nursing mothers. Kings and Queens of the Gentiles!
@@tamichristiansen387thank you so much for sharing these scriptures to show the truth! I was thinking a lot like what you shared but didn't know where to start to clarify things!
The Lord is not here. Based on scripture and many clues, I believe we are approx. 250 to 400+ years away from his coming!
He comes to His temples doesn't he?
The LDS church has and is purchasing commercial properties on a regular basis for $200 million or more each on a regular basis.
Does the savior (creator of heaven and earth) have need of those buildings in order to accomplish his work?
Wendy has misled you.
Anyone who say the lord is here or there or implies he has come is deceiving you.
When the Lord comes he will come in unmistakable glory and not in secret.
We are not called the LDS church.
We are called The Church of Jesus Christ of latter-day Saints thank you very much.
Nobody is saying that Christ will come in secret. Get real! Like can any man or entity can really stop Jesus Christ from coming? Of course not. Our job is to prepare ourselves well. Stop fighting amongst each other. Love all ppl and follow his command and keep our sacred covenants we promised to keep.
@ Wendy is implying that he has already returned.
Why do do feel the need to correct the name. If other supposed prophets were still alive you would be happy to be called Mormon.
Wendy and RMN have to all confused.
