And the voice of warning shall be unto all people, by the mouths of my disciples, whom I have chosen in these last days. And they shall go forth and none shall stay them, for I the Lord have commanded them.
(Doctrine and Covenants | Section 1:4 - 5)
A lovely gift for
you all with all my love. This is the very reason for the season
Hearken and lo, this is the voice as of one sent
down from on high who is mighty and powerful, whose voice is unto all men and
whose goings are to the ends of the earth crying in the wilderness and saying:
Behold, that which you hear is as the voice of one crying in the wilderness—in the wilderness, because you cannot see him—myvoice, because myvoice is Spirit; mySpirit is truth; truth abideth and hath no end; and if it be in you it shall abound.
Repent ye, repent ye for the kingdom of heave is at
hand, repent ye repent ye and make the path of the LORD straight, for the ax is
laid at the base of every tree and every tree that does not bring forth fruit
meet for repentance will be hewn down and cast into the fire from whence no
traveler returns. For it is written that nothing impure can dwell in the
presence of GOD and live for Man of Holiness is his name.And his son is the son Ahman, even Jesus Christ.
He, the LORD visited me while I was in
his temple in the spirit barely a day ago, I almost melt entirely in his
presence and could not stand on my feet, but had to lay down with my face on
the ground even like Moses and Daniel. He
showed me the sign of the nail in his omnipotent hand, which cause me to groan
and to howl like a man when he loses his only begotten son. I bear witness of
his divine atonement, and his message of salvation I come to declare to you in
the words of his servants the prophets. That
if we desire a place in his present we must be even as they are or we cannot
endure his presence and live to tell the tale. And the only reason I was able to endure it
was because of the power of the priesthood that is in me of which it is
written:
·ST, Genesis
14:31-33For God having sworn unto Enoch and unto his
seed with an oath by himself; that every one being ordained after this order
and calling should have power, by faith, to break mountains, to divide the
seas, to dry up waters, to turn them out of their course;
To
put at defiance the armies of nations, to divide the earth, to break every
band, to stand in the presence of God; to do all things according to his will,
according to his command, subdue principalities and powers; and this by the
will of the Son of God which was from before the foundation of the world.
And
men having this faith, coming up unto this order of God, were translated and
taken up into heaven.
And
now, Melchizedek was a priest of this order; therefore he obtained peace in Salem, and was called the
Prince of peace.
·Moses 1:9-11
“And
the presence of God withdrew from Moses, that his glory was not upon Moses; and
Moses was left unto himself. And as he was left unto himself, he fell unto the
earth.
And it came to pass that it was for the space of many hours before
Moses did again receive his natural strength like unto man; and he said unto
himself: Now, for this cause I know that man is nothing, which thing I never
had supposed.
But now mine own eyes have beheld God; but not my natural, but my
spiritual eyes, for my natural eyes could not have beheld; for I should have
withered and died in his presence; but his glory was upon me; and I beheld his
face, for I was transfigured before “him.
And
behold, the glory of the Lord was upon Moses, so that Moses stood in the presence of God, and talked with him face to face. And the Lord God said unto Moses: For mine own purpose have I made
these things. Here is wisdom and it remaineth in me.
“When
prophets come crying repentance, it “throws cold water on the party.” But
in reality the prophetic call should be received with joy. Without repentance,
there is no real progress or improvement in life.”
“First, the invitation to repent is an expression of love. When the
Savior “began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at
hand” (Matthew
4:17), it was a message of love, inviting all who would to qualify to join
Him “and enjoy the words of eternal life in this world, and eternal life
[itself] in the world to come” (Moses 6:59).
If we do not invite others to change or
if we do not demand repentance of ourselves, we fail in a fundamental duty we
owe to one another and to ourselves.”
“A permissive parent, an indulgent friend, a fearful Church leader are
in reality more concerned about themselves than the welfare and happiness of
those they could help. Yes, the call to repentance is at times regarded as
intolerant or offensive and may even be resented, but guided by the Spirit, it
is in reality an act of genuine caring” (see D&C
121:43–44).
I testify of the truthfuless of these things in the sacred
name of Jesus Christ, amen.
I was silenced at church last week by the presiding high priest for
overthrowing their idols. My mouth was shut, the spirit said, enough is enough,
they have crossed the line. I could not speak because they forbid me to preach
which as a priest and as an elder is my sacred duty. As in the days of Mormon, if you have read the
beginning, when he tasted of Jesus and intended to preach, he could not, they
had intentionally rebelled against their GOD. So was I was silenced for telling
them the truth of GOD and they forbid me to preach.
And I did
endeavor to preach unto this people, but mymouth was shut, and I was
forbidden that I should preach unto them; for behold they had wilfully rebelled
against their God; and the beloved disciples were taken away out of the land,
because of their iniquity.
It is not the first time this happens to me, for it happened also in 2005,
2007-2008 and 2011, when I was surrounded by dogs. Or when the lawyers of the church sent against a
legal letter forbidding me to preach, a letter that was backed by about 100
retained dogs.In those days, I was humiliated in
public and escorted out of the church without a formal trial. Things got
complicated, I was betrayed, taken to a crisis unit, and later on I ended being
arrested and incarcerated without a trial for about a month, for a purported
crime. And even if I had committed such a crime, as they claim, no different
that when Christ overthrew the tables of the money exchangers and beat
everybody with the girdle of his loins, I would have only been need to taken
for three days, not a month. And even after Jail, they took me again and cast
me into the pith where I was in the company of murderers. But I am not here to
complain, to be numbered with the infirm and the transgressors comes with the territory of my profession.If they did whatever they want with Christ
and the prophets before and after him, what else can I expect?
I am happy to be counted worthy to suffer shame for the LORD’s cause. If I have nothing against them, but if I have
not forgotten it is only because they don’t repent and keep committing the same
priestcraft crime.
Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his
lord. If they have persecutedme, they will also persecute
you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also.
And they departed from the presence
of the council, rejoicing that they were countedworthy to suffer shame for his name.
Now, the LORD has commanded us to rear our children in the light of truth. And that it is not fair that we work so hard during the year to acquire knowledge or light and truth to lose it all by that wicked one by a plate of lentils. Or by disobedience to the commandments and the traditions of our fathers that are not correct as recorded in D&C 93 when the LORD rebuked the first presidency and also the presiding bishop for not having their house in order. And can there be order without law or obedience to the commandments of GOD? When we are obedient, it is great, but then it is by the traditions of this world or of our fathers that are not correct, that the devil tempts us to break the commandments and fall from grace, and in so doing that wicked one takes light and truth from us. This is why many are in a vicious cycle of learning and never coming to the knowledge of the truth. We then go about celebrating St. Valentine, and saying, Merry Christmas, not knowing that we are praising St Levitan and feasting with Satan’s Claws, for the mass or death of Jesus Christ. Two wrongs don’t make it right. President Monson has said that he cannot stress too strongly that decisions determine destiny. We cannot be right by doing wrong and that we cannot be wrong by doing right. And the prophets of old have also have called our day saying that we will turn things upside down, and call good evil and evil good. Surely the word of the LORD is sweet as honey, but it is no fun to be a prophet, because once the meal it is digested, it turns bitter like hell’s cup of dregs which is bitter as calyx, for we must prophesy and sing a not so lovely song, with a not so lovely instrument and make others to drink even if they refuse to drink, they shall certainly drink. Who can stand these sayings?
Therefore, my people are gone into captivity, becausetheyhavenoknowledge; and their
honorable men are famished, and their multitude dried up with thirst.
¶Therefore my people are gone into captivity, becausetheyhavenoknowledge: and their
honourable men are famished, and their multitude dried up with thirst.
Mypeople are destroyed for
lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject
thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of
thy God, I will also forget thy children.
For my
people is foolish, theyhave
not known me; they are sottish children, and theyhave none understanding:
they are wise to do evil, but to do good theyhavenoknowledge.
Surely your turning of thingsupsidedown shall be esteemed as the potter’s clay: for shall
the work say of him that made it, He made me not? or shall the thing framed say of him that framed it, He had no
understanding?
And wo unto them that seek deep to hide their counsel from the Lord!
And their works are in the dark; and they say: Who seeth us, and who knoweth
us? And they also say: Surely, your turning of thingsupsidedown shall be esteemed as the potter’s clay. But behold,
I will show unto them, saith the Lord of Hosts, that I know all their works. For
shall the work say of him that made it, he made me not? Or shall the thing framed say of him that framed it, he had no
understanding?
And I went
unto the angel, and said unto him, Give me the littlebook. And he said unto me, Take it, and eat it up;
and it shall make thy belly bitter, but it shall be in thy mouth sweet as
honey.
And it shall be, if they refuse to
take the cup at thine hand to drink, then shalt
thou say unto them, Thus saith the Lord of hosts;
Ye shall certainly drink.
Idolatry and adultery are synonyms It is a sin against GOD going after
other gods as much as a married man or a married woman goes after strange
flesh, which is a sin of witchcraft that brings confusion and desolation. We cannot
worship God in truth in spirit when we go at the same time whoring with our
traditional celebrations and feasts from New Year to This time like pagans
going after dumb idols. But they, my
immediate superiors, they got mad at me for speaking foulness against their
green trees and worst, for giving us to eat things sacrificed to mundane idols
on the Sabbath by the RSP and other so called prophetesses like Jezebel as
recorded in Revelation 2 without regard to the sanctity of the sacramental occasion.
But
I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the
doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumblingblock before the children
of Israel,
to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornication.
Notwithstanding I have a few things
against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself
a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to
eat things sacrificed unto idols.
I testify to you all that I have heard the voice of GOD and know his
words. I did not call myself, but was called of GOD as was Aaron, which
priesthood, has the keys of the ministering of angels, of the preparatory gospel
of repentance, and of the letter of the gospel agreeable to the covenants and commandments.
I am instructed from on high and not by
men, I am sent to teach and not to be taught, and I have proper credentials;
and who can deny that I have authority to speak with the authority of our Father
in heaven whose mission is to put all enemies of Christ under his feet. Here is the law and the testimony:
The
power and authority of the lesser, or Aaronic Priesthood, is to hold the keys of the ministering of angels, and to administer in outward ordinances, the
letter of the gospel, the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins,
agreeable to the covenants and commandments.
Again
I say, hearken ye elders of my church, whom I have appointed: Ye are not sent
forth to be taught, but to teach
the children of men the things which I have put into your hands by the power of
my Spirit;
I did not speak belief or commentary to them, but sound knowledge and
testimony or how the LORD has rebuked me severely for my own light mindedness
in the past. Because then, when we go on celebrating these things, like it or
not, conscious or not, we share in the sins of the world.That is we make a feast to a host of immoral
spirits or foul deities that are having orgies and making fun of us behind the
scenes or the veil.
Did you not know that spiritual Babylone has fallen, and that it has
become the habitation of every unclean spirit and the cage of every foul beast?
I cited them what the ancients did with
their immoral rituals under every green tree and their sexual delight groves. And how the spirit of GOD flees from us from
here to the Himalayas; or what happens to us
when we do our own will and not the LORD in the Sabbath day. How we get sick
and suffer all kids of physical and mental tribulations and unless we repent,
we are as if given to the buffetings of Satan. I myself have seen death and
corruption, even the rider of the pale horse, eating a green apple, and the dead
following him waling like the miserable, over countless sacs of dead corpses, piled
up as dung.This reminds me of the words
of the propher Joel and Zephaniah, days of wrath, days of dense clouds ; and days
of darkness and of gloominess, in which people sin on their lees, thinking that
the LORD will not do good nor evil.
And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is
fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of
every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hatefulbird.
That
day is a day of wrath, a day of trouble and distress, a day of wasteness and
desolation, a day of darkness and gloominess, a
day of clouds and thickdarkness,
A
day of darkness and of gloominess, a day of clouds and of thickdarkness, as the morning spread upon the mountains: a
great people and a strong; there hath not been ever the like, neither shall be
any more after it, even to the years of many generations.
The LORD has his hand on my shoulder as I speak or write these things, I cannot contain the
fire, for it burns like hell and it pains my bones.It makes me cry because as the prophet say,
my people perish because they have no knowledge. Don’t you know that when we go
whoring with these incorrect tradition and Babylonia
idolatry, we contaminate ourselves spiritually as when touching a decomposing
dead body? And it is as if we were fornicating and committing adultery. We
inadvertently open Pandora’s boxes here and there and allow unclean spirits to
get near unto us and to tempt us to sin in ways that we never even thought of.
We have unkind dreams that makes us shrink from approaching and praying to GOD.
Hence the cry from the LORD and his
prophets, come out of her my people so that you do not partake of her plagues. Remember
what happened to Samaria and Jerusalem, how their dead were heaped for
their idolatry.
Because
of the wrath of the Lord it shall not be inhabited, but it shall be wholly
desolate: every one that goeth by Babylon
shall be astonished, and hiss at all herplagues.
And
I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her,
my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins,
and that ye receive not of herplagues.
Therefore
shall herplagues
come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she
shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her.
26
But if she observe not to do whatsoever I have
commanded her, I will visit her
according to all her works, with sore affliction,
with pestilence, with plague, with sword, with
vengeance, with devouring fire.
MASS
LITURGY- WAKE-DISMISSAL OF THE DEAD
" The term "Mass" is derived from the Late Latin word missa (dismissal), a word used in the concluding formula of Mass in Latin: "Ite, missa est" ("Go; it is the dismissal").[6][7] "In antiquity, missa
simply meant 'dismissal'. In Christian usage, however, it gradually
took on a deeper meaning. The word 'dismissal' has come to imply a
'mission'. These few words succinctly express the missionary nature of
the Church".[8]"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_%28liturgy%29
Because during this season, what do we celebrate? Think about the word Christ- MASS. We are not actually making
a feast to commemorate the birth of our Saviour, are we? But celebrating a Mass
to his death like the Nicholaitans, a secret sect or combination did when they
severed the apostles and prophet from the church; or when the vote of the
populace was purchased to crucify the Christ. We all know he was not born on
December 25ht. Is that walking in the light of truth?Do you think that God will justify us or,
look upon our sins with the least degree of allowance? And even it it was trully his birhtday celebration or even a mass of his death, do you think he approves your feasts and all the paraphernalia of pagan or Hellenistic ritualism? You know, that despite
his loving kindness and mercy he would not tolerate it, for in so doing he will
cease to be GOD. And this is because these things bring about apostasy or departure from truth. Now here is the law and the testimony.
But hast
done evil above all that were before thee: for
thou hast gone and made thee othergods, and molten images, to provoke me to anger, and hast cast me
behind thy back:
But if ye
shall at all turn from following me, ye or your
children, and will not keep my commandments and my statutes which I have set before you, but
go and serve othergods,
and worship them:
And I willturnyourfeasts into
mourning, and all your songs into lamentation; and
I will bring up sackcloth upon all loins, and
baldness upon every head; and I will make it as
the mourning of an only son, and the end thereof as a bitter day.
In their
heat I will make their feasts, and I will make
them drunken, that they may rejoice, and sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake,
saith the Lord.
¶The Lord
said also unto me in the days of Josiah the king, Hast thou seen that which
backsliding Israel
hath done? she is gone up upon every high mountain
and under everygreentree, and there hath played the harlot.
¶For of
old time I have broken thy yoke, and burst thy bands; and thou saidst, I will
not transgress; when upon every high hill and
under everygreentree thou wanderest, playing the harlot.
And he said: Thus saith the Lord God—Cursed shall be the land, yea,
this land, unto every nation, kindred, tongue, and people, unto destruction,
which do wickedly, when they are fully ripe; and as I have said so shall it be;
for this is the cursing and the blessing of God upon the land, for the Lord
cannot look upon sin with the leastdegree of allowance.
Light and truth
forsake that evil one.
Every spirit of man
was innocent in the beginning; and God having redeemed man from the fall, men
became again, in their infant state, innocent before God. And that wicked one
cometh and taketh away light and truth, through disobedience, from the children
of men, and because of the tradition of their fathers.
But I have commanded you to bring up your
children in light and truth.
What the LORD says unto one, he says unto all. We can avoid the consequences of sin if we
repent and amend our ways. We know what happened
to the Jaredites, the Nephites and to the the Laminates. If Zion does what the LORD says, she will
escape, but if she does not, she won’t escape the abomination that makes
desolate. And it will start with us or from
us, and from us it shall go forth. For if the LORD did not spare his own house
that was like a tender plant unto him, and he burned with scorching flames, what
shall become of dry wood when the fire approaches, them? You have been properly and diligently warned and forwarded by a servant
in the hands of Christ, whose latchet of his sandal I am unworthy to untie.
This is the truth, of which I bear witness and testify. And
I do it as one having authority in the sacred name of Jesus Christ amen.
Nevertheless, let the bishop go unto the city of
New York, also to the city of Albany, and also to the city of Boston, and warn
the people of those cities with the sound of the gospel, with a loud voice, of
the desolation and utter abolishment which await them if they do reject these
things.
(Doctrine
and Covenants | Section 84:114)
Hearken
and lo, this is the voice as of one who is mighty and strong whose voice is
unto all men and whose goings are to the ends of the earth. Behold, this is the voice as of one crying repentance
in the wilderness saying unto all that may hear from these great Cainan cities
in the land of Zion and also abroad. Repent ye repent ye and prepare the way of the
LORD. Repent ye repent ye and make the path of the LORD straight by bringing
fruit meet for repentance. For it is written already that the ax is already laid
at the base of every tree and every tree that does not produce good fruit will
be hewn down and cast into the fire from where no traveler returns. Therefore o
ye people of the land, Repent ye repent ye for the kingdom of heaven is at hand
for this is the commandment of him who sent me whose latchet of his sandal I am
not worthy to untie. For then as now he
has commanded to repent and come unto him and be baptized in his name unto all
those who are responsible before him and only the children are justified.
Now this is the commandment:
Repent, all ye ends of the earth, and come unto me
and be baptized in my name, that ye may be sanctified by the reception of the
Holy Ghost, that ye may stand spotless before me at the last day.
Verily, verily, I say unto you, this is my gospel;
and ye know the things that ye must do in my church; for the works which ye
have seen me do that shall ye also do; for that which ye have seen me do even
that shall ye do. Therefore, if ye do these things blessed are ye, for ye shall
be lifted up at the last day.
(Book of
Mormon | 3 Nephi 27:20 - 22)
For
behold for your wickedness which has already reached the ears of heaven, a
great abolishment and desolation awaits you all and unless you repent in dust
and ashes your great and notable cities will be left desolate and even without
inhabitants. For this is a decree from heaven upon these lands when your
abominations overflow. For behold, the God of these lands is Jesus Christ and he
has sworn that all nations that shall possess it shall serve him or they will
be destroyed and wiped off when the fullness of his wrath should fall upon you.
And he
had sworn in his wrath unto the brother of Jared, that whoso should possess
this land of promise, from that time henceforth and forever, should serve him,
the true and only God, or they should be swept off when the fulness of his
wrath should come upon them.
(Book of Mormon | Ether 2:8)
This
is not the first, or the second, or even the third time that a civilized nation
great or small has been destroyed upon these lands. And the scriptures in the
Bible and in the book of Mormon make it manifest, but you because of your hardness
of heart and your stiff neck would not profit from them. And since you are
inclined to reject these things, the LORD has promised that if you do not
repent and reject these sayings that your house is going to be left desolate. And
when the sprit of GOD ceased to strive with man, what happens thereafter is not
good. For thus has the LORD said that with us or thru our preaching you are to
be reproved for your ungodly deeds and the time will soon come and it
approaches speedily that if you reject these words that the LORD our GOD will
not only rend your kingdoms but that the earth and the heavens will shake. I myself have seen the scripture which was pointed
to me directly by the angels of heave that say that if they escaped not who
refused him that speaks, the earth shook. And if we turn away from him that
speak from heaven, that not only the earth but he has promised that He will
shake but the starry heavens also. And
his words yet once more signify the removal of those things that are weak, as
of things that are man made, that those things which that cannot be shaken may
remain. And us therefore receiving a kingdom that cannot be moved or given to
another people, that whereby grace we may serve GOD in reverence and
acceptably, and also to work our own salvation with fear and trembling, for it
has been shown to us that the wrath of GOD is a consuming fire.
See that ye refuse not him that speaketh.For if they escaped not who refused him that
spake on earth, much more shall not
we escape, if we turn away from him
that speaketh from heaven: Whose
voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I
shake not the earth only, but also heaven. And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that
are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be
shaken may remain. Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let
us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly
fear: For our God is a consuming
fire.
(New
Testament | Hebrews 12:25 - 29)
My
spinach is to do the will of him that sent me, for I truly try to live by every
word that comes out of the mouth of GOD. And it is for this reason that I contend,
morning by morning, and day after day with my voice of warning blog. And when
the night comes, I am instructed not to let the inhabitants of the whole earth
slumber, because of my speech even if I were like unto a repeater or a
transistors radio anchor man. And all my words, weak or strong, perfect or
imperfect are justified by my GOD for like my father of old, I walk with GOD he
hath also said unto me:
Contend thou, therefore, morning by morning; and
day after day let thy warning voice go forth; and when the night cometh let not
the inhabitants of the earth slumber, because of thy speech.
(Doctrine
and Covenants | Section 112:5)
Behold my
Spirit is upon you, wherefore all thy words will I justify; and the mountains
shall flee before you, and the rivers shall turn from their course; and thou
shalt abide in me, and I in you; therefore walk with me.
(Pearl of Great Price | Moses 6:34)
The
LORD has seen your abominations and I myself have also seen them. And this is
the rebuke of the LORD unto all of you this day which I preach with a borrowed
mouth for so the spirit of GOD constrains me to do as in the days of the
ancient kings. And what the LORD says unto one nation he says unto all both
with verb and graphically.
Then the LORD said unto me, Proclaim all these
words in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, saying, Hear ye
the words of this covenant, and do them. For I earnestly protested unto your
fathers in the day that I brought
them up out of the land of Egypt, even
unto this day, rising early and protesting, saying, Obey my voice.
(Old
Testament | Jeremiah 11:6 - 7)
Stand in the gate of the LORD's house, and proclaim
there this word, and say, Hear the word of the LORD, all ye of Judah, that enter in at these gates to worship the LORD.
Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, Amend
your ways and your doings, and I will cause you to dwell in this place.
Trust ye not in lying words, saying, The temple of
the LORD, The temple of the LORD, The temple of the LORD, are these. For if ye throughly amend your ways and your doings; if
ye throughly execute judgment between a man and his neighbour; If ye oppress not the stranger, the
fatherless, and the widow, and shed not innocent blood in this place, neither
walk after other gods to your hurt: Then will I cause you to dwell in this
place, in the land that I gave to your fathers, for ever and ever.
Behold, ye trust in lying words, that cannot
profit.
Will ye steal, murder, and commit adultery, and
swear falsely, and burn incense unto Baal, and walk after other gods whom ye
know not; And come and stand before me
in this house, which is called by my name, and say, We are delivered to do all
these abominations? Is this house, which is called by my name, become a den of
robbers in your eyes?Behold, even I have
seen it, saith the LORD.
But go ye now unto my place which was in Shiloh, where I set my name at
the first, and see what I did to it for the wickedness of my people Israel.
And now, because ye have done all these works,
saith the LORD, and I spake unto you, rising up early and speaking, but ye
heard not; and I called you, but ye answered not; Therefore will I do unto this house, which is called by my name,
wherein ye trust, and unto the place which I gave to you and to your fathers,
as I have done to Shiloh. And I will cast you out of my sight, as I have cast
out all your brethren, even the whole
seed of Ephraim.
(Old
Testament | Jeremiah 7:2 - 15)
For
this cause the gospel of Jesus Christ has been restored to save the repentant
from the desolations that will surely come. For these things the LORD has
spoken in the preface of the book of commandments saying from the rivers to the
ends of the earth but you would not hear:
HEARKEN, O ye people of my church, saith the voice
of him who dwells on high, and whose eyes are upon all men; yea, verily I say:
Hearken ye people from afar; and ye that are upon the islands of the sea,
listen together.
For verily the voice of the Lord is unto all men,
and there is none to escape; and there is no eye that shall not see, neither
ear that shall not hear, neither heart that shall not be penetrated. And the
rebellious shall be pierced with much sorrow; for their iniquities shall be
spoken upon the housetops, and their secret acts shall be revealed.
And the voice of warning shall be unto
all people, by the mouths of my disciples, whom I have chosen in these last
days. And they shall go forth and none shall stay them, for I the Lord have
commanded them.
Behold, this is mine authority, and the authority
of my servants, and my preface unto the book of my commandments, which I have
given them to publish unto you, O inhabitants of the earth.
Wherefore, fear and tremble, O ye people,
for what I the Lord have decreed in them shall be fulfilled.
And verily I say unto you, that they who go forth,
bearing these tidings unto the inhabitants of the earth, to them is power given
to seal both on earth and in heaven, the unbelieving and rebellious; Yea,
verily, to seal them up unto the day when the wrath of God shall be poured out
upon the wicked without measure— Unto the day when the Lord shall come to
recompense unto every man according to his work, and measure to every man
according to the measure which he has measured to his fellow man.
Wherefore the voice of the Lord is unto
the ends of the earth, that all that will hear may hear: Prepare ye, prepare ye
for that which is to come, for the Lord is nigh;
And the anger of the Lord is kindled, and his sword
is bathed in heaven, and it shall fall upon the inhabitants of the earth. And
the arm of the Lord shall be revealed; and the day cometh that they who will
not hear the voice of the Lord, neither the voice of his servants, neither give
heed to the words of the prophets and apostles, shall be cut off from among the
people; For they have strayed from mine ordinances, and have broken mine
everlasting covenant; They seek not the Lord to establish his righteousness,
but every man walketh in his own way, and after the image of his own god, whose
image is in the likeness of the world, and whose substance is that of an idol,
which waxeth old and shall perish in Babylon, even Babylon the great, which
shall fall.
Wherefore, I the Lord, knowing the
calamity which should come upon the inhabitants of the earth, called upon my
servant Joseph Smith, Jun., and spake unto him from heaven, and gave him
commandments; And also gave commandments to others, that they should proclaim
these things unto the world; and all this that it might be fulfilled, which was
written by the prophets—
The weak things of the world shall come
forth and break down the mighty and strong ones, that man should not counsel
his fellow man, neither trust in the arm of flesh—
But that every man might speak in the name of God
the Lord, even the Savior of the world;
That faith also might increase in the earth;
That mine everlasting covenant might be
established;
That the fulness of my gospel might be
proclaimed by the weak and the simple unto the ends of the world, and before
kings and rulers.
Behold, I am God and have spoken it; these
commandments are of me, and were given unto my servants in their weakness,
after the manner of their language, that they might come to understanding.
And inasmuch as they erred it might be made known;
And inasmuch as they sought wisdom they might be
instructed;
And inasmuch as they sinned they might be
chastened, that they might repent;
And inasmuch as they were humble they might be made
strong, and blessed from on high, and receive knowledge from time to time.
And after having received the record of the
Nephites, yea, even my servant Joseph Smith, Jun., might have power to
translate through the mercy of God, by the power of God, the Book of Mormon.
And also those to whom these commandments
were given, might have power to lay the foundation of this church, and to bring
it forth out of obscurity and out of darkness, the only true and living church
upon the face of the whole earth, with which I, the Lord, am well pleased,
speaking unto the church collectively and not individually— For I the Lord
cannot look upon sin with the least degree of allowance;
Nevertheless, he that repents and does the
commandments of the Lord shall be forgiven; And he that repents not, from him
shall be taken even the light which he has received; for my Spirit shall not
always strive with man, saith the Lord of Hosts. And again, verily I say unto
you, O inhabitants of the earth: I the Lord am willing to make these things
known unto all flesh; For I am no respecter of persons, and will that all men
shall know that the day speedily cometh; the hour is not yet, but is nigh at
hand, when peace shall be taken from the earth, and the devil shall have power
over his own dominion.
And also the Lord shall have power over his saints,
and shall reign in their midst, and shall come down in judgment upon Idumea, or
the world.
Search these commandments, for they are true and
faithful, and the prophecies and promises which are in them shall all be
fulfilled. What I the Lord have spoken, I have spoken, and I excuse not myself;
and though the heavens and the earth pass away, my word shall not pass away,
but shall all be fulfilled, whether by mine own voice or by the voice of my
servants, it is the same. For behold, and lo, the Lord is God, and the Spirit
beareth record, and the record is true, and the truth abideth forever and
ever.Amen.
(Doctrine
and Covenants | Section 1:1 - 39)
The
LORD has spoken and he has the last word, I, of myself, have nothing else to
say, but whatever I have said, I have said solemnly, humbly and meekly, with a
single eye for the honor and glory of GOD and for your profit. I do it as one having authority, to bind in
heaven what I have sealed on earth. And I do it by virtue of the holy
priesthood which I bear in accordance to my duty and I trespass not the law and
the prophets, and I do it in the sacred name of the son of GOD, even the LORD
Jesus Christ, amen.
Attentively
Yours from an unworthy servant in the hands of Christ
