The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light." (New Testament | Romans 13:11 - 12)It is the DUTY for all righteous people to take heed of this scripture and work to establish truth again on the face of the planet, wherever they can and wherever they may be. For how can it be that supposedly good men accept the darkness and dark works of "mystery Babylon" to rule over them and their loved ones without a just process of accountability? How is it acceptable that leadership of the LDS Church founded in truth and light is now covered in the ghastly pale of secret works and of unknown combinations which govern it, with meaningful spiritual direction and goodness now replaced with the confused overtones of chaos? It is time for all who wish to be valiant for Christ to rise up and expose and denounce the propaganda of Satan which controls and defines all levels of society. Even that civilization as our culture has come to define it is completely taken over by the thought processes of those who impose modern cultural precepts and new definitions of right and wrong imposed by Satan."Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!" (Old Testament | Isaiah 5:20)For any who do not voluntarily make an effort to establish the truth of the Gospel of Christ have therefore yielded to the works of Satan to proceed to their predetermined course of subduing all of mankind. "Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?" (New Testament | Romans 6:16)The Modern Day Extinction of the LDS Saints In spite of having over a century and a half pass since he was martyred, Joseph Smith continues to see an increase in wicked slander from legions of spiteful enemies directed against him, a sure sign that he was one of the most significant historical figures in the history of the world. For if such a man was in fact less than a great and righteous prophet, his place as one of the greatest men in world history would have been discredited by these most wicked of people who are so consumed in hatred of an innocent man that their lives are dedicated generation after generation in countless failed attempts to discredit him. Any legitimate research has shown Joseph Smith, that man who is innocent of what his critics allege, to be a great man of God innocent of all false charges directed against him. When objective inquiry leads to confirming truth, the magnitude of that truth is staggering upon everyone. For to slander and attempt to destroy a man that is given a message of the True Gospel directly from God is the same as rejecting and slandering God himself. It is the truth of the true Gospel restored by Joseph Smith which is the biggest threat evil has ever faced in the history of the world. Other than when the Savior lived and was crucified on Earth to provide mankind an opportunity for deliverance from the chains of everlasting death and hell, Joseph Smith has done more than any other man in restoring knowledge that could awake mankind to its awful situation. Everyone’s fate for being overcome by Satan verses that glimmer of hope we all have of redemption rests on the true restored Gospel of Jesus Christ. Pretended research, such as been witnessed recently in LDS Church sponsored symposiums supposedly honoring the 200th birthday of Joseph Smith, has sought out the enemies of Joseph Smith, of the same ilk of those with slander in their hearts and who killed him, so they may be employed to revise his story. We find almost no examples in history if any, where a so-called civilized society uses testimonies of the cold blooded murderers and mobocrats to define a most innocent victim of their most heinous crime - and overrule the honest testimonies of those of his friends and associates of impeccable character - to rewrite his story and slander his character 160 years after his martyrdom. The exception of course is that which has been allowed to be perpetuated by those husbandmen entrusted with guiding the modern LDS Church to slander Joseph Smith, Jr. This slanderous material is given greater weight than the enduring testimonies of honest Saints who personally knew Joseph Smith. Yet that is what our pretended experts and researchers of the modern day seek out in their attempts to find "stains" on the character of Joseph Smith. The testimonies of the true Latter-day Saints, now all but extinct, which stoutly refute fraudulent modern day "research" have endured decades long attacks of a systematic dishonesty;. That design of Satan has eliminated most of that which was precious from the eyes and ears of those who occupy membership in the LDS Church today. A new perspective has been instilled among the new LDS Scholars so that most authentic LDS Church history has been lost and is now to be mocked by present LDS members who have actually been deprived of access to the Lord’s true Gospel. And the world has heard the story of Joseph Smith; many have chosen to believe the stories of mobsters and slanderers and murderers who openly served Satan, their master, by murdering an innocent man of God. And as time passes, the eyewitnesses who personally knew Joseph Smith have all passed away so that their stout eyewitness defense of a great man’s character has been buried under the onslaught of revisionist history of the modern LDS Church. "Cast off the works of darkness..." Now, both foes of the Mormon Church and those who call themselves followers of the Mormon religion have been greatly influenced by the slanderous revisions of modern LDS re-constructionist historians, so that there is not one known person who can speak authoritatively on the Gospel taught by the Prophet Joseph Smith for every single person has been tainted with the lies that pervade the modern so-called history books and so-called items of modern historical research that cast a slanderous portrait of the Lord’s Prophet Joseph Smith. For it is evident that every known person on the face of the earth may have to possibly stand guilty before the Lord at the time of their judgement for having born false witness against a true servant, the Prophet Joseph Smith. Unless they repent, the Lord’s scriptures make it clear that liars will have no place in heaven. And the way for mankind to be forgiven and to dwell in the presence of the Lord as well as our Father in Heaven is to repent of our sins and hope for the forgiveness of the one whom the offense has been committed against, in addition to the Lord himself, or they cannot dwell in the presence of our Lord. The words of our God strictly teach that liars and those that bear false witness are guilty of sins that they MUST repent of in order not to lose their salvation. And all of mankind that has falsely slandered Joseph Smith based on the story-telling of murderers and mobocrats are now basing their professed belief on chief players in the biggest fraud case in Mormon history. And nary anyone has risen up to defend Joseph Smith against the most vicious onslaught of slander against him since these same self-appointed experts on Joseph Smith sought to destroy him attaching themselves to the frauds of Mark Hofmann.Many will have to face Joseph Smith and many will have to ask for his forgiveness for their falsehoods against his character, for bearing false witness against a completely innocent man is strictly prohibited by the simplest of the Lord’s most basic commandments and is to anyone who seeks God’s glory and blessings. And therefore, the entities presently in control of the LDS Church exert all of their influence and much of their available resources, and all of the souls presently under the control of Satan to actively work to subvert and obscure truth, even to the extent of altering civilization’s recorded history itself, for the history of the Saints is a stout testimony against those who have become dependent on fraudulent teachings for their sustenance and existence. For truth is the greatest enemy to evil, for evil exposed loses its prestige, and truth re-established and known by mankind becomes an unquenchable light, as if from heaven. And only when man knowingly rejects truth and knowingly chooses deceit and darkness does he find it within himself to oppose that bright light which the forces of heaven seek to re-establish to reign on the earth. If only mankind did not so love ignorance; attempts to revise history are easily exposed. As many of them who gleefully accepted the slanderous frauds of Mark Hofmann are now themselves considered "experts" in the field of revisionist history; having not been held to any degree of journalistic standards for their participation in the Hofmann frauds. Also not having been held accountable for their shameful lack of scholarship by the mainstream world, they have built upon their public standing they obtained from their public endorsements of the Hofmann frauds to gain worldly status in their "research" to slander the original Mormons. Followers of Satan’s work feverishly to destroy Mormon history and knowledge from both within and outside of the Mormon Church, and naturally no man in world history is slandered more than the Prophet Joseph Smith and he is that man who can overthrow the works of Satan, for evil knows time is short for the rule of Satan over the minds of mankind. But one man lives who could always be counted on to fearlessly defend Joseph Smith and therefore is feared like no other by LDS Church authorities. There was a man born on this earth in the twentieth century who guided by the spirit of the Lord has not bowed the knee to cowardly revisionist attacks on the character of Joseph Smith. So those in control of the LDS Church operations have therefore simply instructed LDS Church members in oft passed-on sayings to "have nothing to do" with him and others like him. For should his story become known to the world it would expose current LDS Church hierarchy and its leaders would be discredited and lose the worldly status they have taken and misuse as the perceived authoritative speakers on the Mormon religion. For the truth would be known that they actually do not know that religion they claim to profess. Because of this, Satan uses all under his control to censor this information and to work diligently to keep the one man who understands the Gospel taught by Joseph Smith from becoming publicly known. For the consequences of his words would shake the modern LDS Church back to its very foundation and an entire LDS membership suddenly becoming completely disillusioned with its perceived Church leaders would have repercussions world wide, shaking even the stronghold of Satan loose from the Church of God. And the world offers little, if any, sound and rational opposition to this man. The power of Satan is great over the souls of those he has captured, so he exercises control and censorship over their minds. For the scriptures truly state that even the saints would be overcome by Satan, meaning even those people in God’s Church would not be immune from falling under Satan’s power, for it is promised that during this time of Satan being turned loose over his dominion that he would gain control over all. "And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations." (New Testament | Revelation 13:7).Instead, this servant of the Lord and what he represents is given the worst treatment imaginable to a fellow human being. Authentic history and principled reference of facts is no longer valued, not by the purported LDS Historians, for their interest lies in history reconstruction - libraries across the land bear little trace of the authentic history of a great nation has been cannibalized, for Satan is the chief conspirator of all, and controls multitudes, albeit many unaware. His plan therefore has been almost completely effective, as the prophesy in Revelation 13:7 states. The thought of one man makes the LDS impersonator leaders fearful that their works will be exposed. The story of unspeakable civil rights abuses against him, committed by fraudulent men controlling the LDS Church and Utah State entities would unravel the entire fabric of the mythical beliefs and interpretations of the Mormon religion that have been created by today’s modern LDS Church, were this to be brought to light to the general public. An Eyewitness to History On a day in the early 1930's an elderly man dropped in to visit his son’s house, but upon arriving, found the family was out except for his grandson, a young boy in his early teens. It was not a frequent occasion when the rest of the family wasn’t home together when the man dropped in to visit, so the young boy enjoyed a rare visit hearing first hand some of the life experiences of his grandfather. Other times the boy recalled when some of his grandfathers brothers were visiting together, remembering them as a "jolly bunch" with a good sense of humor, recalling stories about growing up in the Salt Lake pioneer era. On this occasion, a boy listened as his grandfather recounted for him stories which recalled his early hardships of the Mormon pioneers’ daily lives in the mid-nineteenth century, just a few years after the people had settled the Salt Lake Valley. The elderly gentleman was himself born to a widow of the martyred Prophet Joseph Smith; his mother being a highly esteemed Mormon midwife; after the martyrdom of her husband she had remarried an apostle and eventual First Counselor of the First Presidency of the Mormon Church. The boy’s grandfather, born in the valley during the 1850's, told of the Saints early struggles and "never knowing what it felt like to have a full stomach until I was ten years old." He told how all the boys had to learn to become good swimmers, ride a horse and shoot a gun at the time they were 14 years old: "We had to not only fight the Indians, but the hills were full of outlaws, and also the government was making war on us. When they’d see O’ Connor’s troops start out from Camp Douglas they would raise a flag. When the Mormons saw the flag they wouldn’t even stop to unhitch their horses. They’d come racing in and line-up in front of Brigham Young’s house and then O’Connor’s troops would turn around and go back. It was evident they didn’t want to fight the Mormons to get Brigham Young." The boy was also descended from church leaders on his mother’s side; Edward Partridge - the grandfather of the boy’s mother - was called as the first presiding Bishop in LDS Church history, and his life was tragically cut short as a result of debilitating health conditions he suffered after he offered himself to vicious mobs in order to protect the innocent women and children they were about to murder. Edward Partridge led a party of men out and told the mob to do with them what they wanted, but leave the women and children alone. Also on his mother’s side was the story of her own mother, Elizabeth Buxton, being orphaned and penniless while a 10 year old child, who yet still found a way to bring herself and her younger brother to Salt Lake by joining with a group of Mormon emigrants heading West. The parents of Elizabeth Buxton joined the Church in England and wanted to get to Utah, but the father died before they could leave. The widow went to a wealthy relative who was the Duke of Buxton, and asked his help for her two children and her to get to Utah. His reply was, "If you leave those deluded Mormons alone I will see to it that you are taken care of for the rest of your life, but if you go with them, I will not give you so much as a farthing. When they got to New York, after their mother died some people offered the two children - ages ten and seven - a good home. The young girl answered, "No, I promised my mother I would bring my little brother to Utah." Young Elizabeth Buxton joined a handcart company and helped pull a handcart. She herself walked across the plains shoeless, to fulfill the promise made as a result of her own dying mother’s last request. The boy descended from the young woman in the story above went on to lead a remarkable life of service to the Lord with Christ-like unselfishness in his hidden great works, and his spiritual experiences of direct contact from the Savior carries a remarkable testimony to the truthfulness of the Book of Mormon and the Prophet Joseph Smith. Surprisingly, this 4th generation Mormon, now elderly and most likely the last remaining link to eyewitness accounts of Mormon settlers of the 1850's, finds not that the stories have any value among the LDS people of today; likewise, the impersonators of Saints now in control of the LDS Church have sought his extermination and all who may be like him. This man is now considered obsolete in the new modern LDS Church, for he represents the authentic eye-witness accounts of actual history of the Church, not the reconstructed apostate versions of the modern authors, Church appointed modern LDS historians and pretended researchers. He has more wisdom and Spirit from God in a moment’s thought than the words of the combined General Authorities of today’s modern LDS Church; and though he has been persecuted, victimized, degraded, physically and mentally abused and mistreated, he has never been confounded pertaining to those things pertaining of the Lord and His Gospel. And this simple man’s wisdom and inspiration dwarfs modern church wisdom of current leaders in monumental proportions, having successfully resisted the mistreatment meant to marginalize and purge the goodness and Spirit of the Lord from him. Today, LDS writers busily write soap-opera Mormon fiction, as this is where those faithful to the Modern version of the LDS church seek their spiritual foundation. Despised are the authentic Mormons, and the last links to authentic Mormon history and Mormon truth are despised and replaced with revisionist agendas. This is that history and heritage under constant and vicious attack from the current people impersonating the Saints and those who exercise control in guiding the membership of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. These who have placed themselves in positions of eminence in the LDS Church above those in humble walks of life who still cling to the true religion. Reason for Starting the Newsletter:
I was awakened during the early hours of one morning in the winter of 2002-2003 when the distinct still small voice spoke the following words in my right ear: "Time to prophesy." I was not immediately sure how this pertained to me but I immediately thought it almost certainly was a message that needed to told to my father and most likely was intended to refer his status as a prophetic figure who had valuable knowledge that must be told to the Mormon Church and the world through his direction of our family and my assistance in some way. There was no doubt in my mind that this was a specific and clear directive for us to take immediate steps and I knew it was the Lord speaking. However, because it was given during the middle of the nighttime hours, I was very quickly asleep again. Within minutes I was again awakened in the same manner with the words: "You are the teacher." I immediately envisioned the world in much the same manner as I viewed my classroom in my daily employment as a teacher, and I felt at that moment that although I was entirely unworthy of such a task, I had been given the confidence to view the world as a simple teacher views his classroom with the assigned task of developing a sequential curriculum and subsequently imparting knowledge to his students. In the days that followed I reflected on the scope of the assignment I felt I had been given and although I felt confident I would be given some means to undertake such a task I was not sure at the time what would be the best course to pursue to disseminate such knowledge, for although we were well underway with two web-sites at the time, we were of otherwise very limited financial means. Because I did know Gospel knowledge which came to our family as a result of our father’s religious experiences was actually an immense volume of understanding to communicate, I felt inspired that it should definitely be written down in some way and then published. Although I knew we had the website as a means to publish any information we wished, I felt something more should be done and began suggesting to my father we should begin a newsletter although it initially seemed beyond the scope of our means and abilities. During the early morning hours of the first Friday of December 2002, I received a very frightening dream of terrible events that involved the future. It was reminiscent of nightmares I had as a child regarding my family members that later was reflected in actual realistic events. The dream was realistic enough as almost certainly to happen in some way that it spurred me to realize the consequences of not acting soon enough to spread truths with which we had been entrusted and Gospel truths before it is too late. In May of 2003 we were able to publish our first newsletter and after much trial and error was able to establish a pattern of publishing it at monthly or seasonal intervals. I believe I was given abilities and knowledge and confidence to carry it out through a series of very brief and limited experiences I had beginning in the summer of 2001: During a discussion with my father in our living room during an early summer day in 2001 I made a comment to him lamenting the time during which we live in which there seemed to be an absence of great men and prophets such as were in Biblical times, particularly the time of the New Testament when there was a Church full of great Christian martyrs that acted fearlessly to establish the Lord’s Gospel; for how we were wishing more could be done to re-establish the truth of the Gospel. Immediately but only for a very brief moment, I felt an immense and indescribable heavenly force of pure knowledge come very near to me which immediately caused me to retract my erroneous comment of a moment before and I began to talk very excitedly and rapidly to my father in that moment to explain all that I was quickly learning. The meaning of the 121st Section, (verse 33) of the Doctrine and Covenants became very clear to me at that point:What power shall stay the heavens? As well might man stretch forth his puny arm to stop the Missouri river in its decreed course, or to turn it up stream, as to hinder the Almighty from pouring down knowledge from heaven upon the heads of the Latter-day Saints." It was unmistakably clear to me that the presence of every one of the Lord’s prophets on the earth was actually made stronger through their mortal departure and that their works and sacrifices and martyrdoms had made stronger the power of the Lord and that inconceivable power like the greatest raging current was always near and waiting to be directed and channeled by the Lord’s will through those who chose to be his servants. I immediately sensed the combined power of every Christian Saint in an immense heavenly force that was still on the earth waiting for that time to be directed to re-establish the presence of the Savior on the earth. There was an immense power and source of pure knowledge that I sensed for only a moment, but the pure heavenly knowledge I felt that was imparted to me in that instant was enough to increase my understanding of the powers of heaven. Because of the overwhelming consuming power I felt close by was beyond my ability in a mortal state to endure it, or withstand it, I felt inclined to mentally withdraw from it for my own preservation. Later while my father and I were on our daily summer walk, I again for a few moments felt a brief contact with indescribable knowledge and began describing to him the same inspirations I had felt before. I began explaining for a few minutes about the powers of heaven only needing the opportunity for those with the humble desire to serve the Lord (according to his will only and not their own natural inclinations) above their own natural selfish desires for this tremendous power to be manifest, and if those given the opportunity don’t make the effort, they will be passed by and someone else will, for it is much bigger than any group or individual. It is time for all Israel who wish for redemption to "...put on the authority of the priesthood, which she, Zion, has a right to by lineage; also to return to that power which she had lost." (Doctrine and Covenants, Section 113:8)I pray for the mercy of God that by putting out his Gospel message, that it will suffice to relieve me of accountability of bringing messages to the world that no other wishes to publish. In a time when the world desperately needs good people to rise in the Lord’s spirit and spread the truth none will show the effort to answer the call. For the scorn and hatred of the message of Christ carries with it no worldly esteem or praise, and any gospel that doesn’t conform or subvert itself to popular world teachings is scorned and hated in fulfillment of the words of Isaiah, that "evil shall be made good and good evil." I therefore do not naturally desire to preach a message the world holds contempt for and would gleefully mock. Should the world be judged in ignorance, due to those who hold valuable knowledge doing nothing, I realize that if I also do nothing I personally will also be held negligent before the Lord’s judgement, as those are who are in possession of the Mormon religion and who should have disseminated truth but chose not to. I therefore pray that our efforts to publish the Lord’s message within our very limited means will suffice before the Lord, and He will deal mercifully with us should evil prevail in censoring the truth of God. For if mankind had left an opening anywhere for the Lord’s return would He not presently be dwelling with His people if they were so worthy? Is there any place and people in the world prepared for the return of the Lord and His sacred presence? Or is that prophecy clearly now fulfilled to the utmost, that "every table is filled with vomit" with all of the hypocrisy that goes with each and every living soul who profess to be Saints, but to every last one cannot keep the most basic of the Lord’s commandments, so that it is almost impossible that a living soul can be found upon the face of the earth who is not filled with deceit and false witness towards their fellow men? "For all tables are full of vomit and filthiness, so that there is no place clean. Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine? them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts." (Isaiah 28:8 - 9)Through the blessings of the Lord we were able to publish with assistance by a small number of various contributing authors, and also I have found no shortage of great authors on the Mormon religion and great men and spiritual leaders, of which I most certainly am not -I being nothing more than a simple lowly messenger of the truth of the Gospel. For the knowledge contained would be of great value to mankind if they were place value on truth and their salvations. And I, being just one simple messenger, seek to convey information of the Gospel necessary for anyone seeking their salvation. Although it may be possible to destroy the messenger, these things published are the truth of the Lord. Much has come to our family’s attention about the dark and hidden controlling elements of the LDS Church teaching the LDS people to "have nothing to do" with us and people such as ourselves, and most, but not all of this is spread covertly. For as a child, I along with my brothers and sisters -the youngest still being an infant - were excommunicated from the LDS Church without fair and proper hearing. Nor was there explanation given to us from the Church as to why we were selected as children to be cut off and denied of our Church blessings and condemned to be cast to the mercies of a corrupt world; the only apparent motive was Church leaders’ vindictiveness held against our father. And though we were spiritually sealed to the Prophet Joseph Smith through our lineage with accompanying scriptural promises, we were never offered explanation why as small children we should be cut off from participating of the blessings from the Church our ancestors sacrificed and paid the price to establish. And to date, these apparent great men who perpetuated this act on small children have never offered an explanation for deeming such little and helpless and innocent ones to be unworthy to have any place in the LDS Church. But they have sought to prey upon the weakest and sickest our family to attempt to instill feelings of unworthiness and guilt for whatever it was we did as the smallest of children to incur such an action. And this raises an alarming question of why modern LDS Church representatives would specially target children who are the spiritual descendants of Joseph Smith and ex-communicate and persecute them while they were still young and vulnerable. And before this happened, I was denied in my desire to become baptized in the LDS Church upon my eighth birthday, although I had been born into the Church and was a direct descendant of several prominent early Church leaders and prominent and respected Saints in LDS Church history. Having been through my life continually searching and researching those perceived as the experts of knowledge in our day, I have continually failed to find realistic explanations from those who are considered great thinkers; and those who purport to have knowledge necessary for life's answers seem to be armed chiefly with the knowledge of scoffers, which becomes evident when questions are asked of them. For those of the House of Israel, much can be taken from the following scripture: "...to put on her strength is to put on the authority of the priesthood, which she, Zion, has a right to by lineage;" (Doctrine and Covenants, Section 113:8). I personally pray for mercy that it will suffice that I publish our message, for none seem to seek after nor care for that which I seek to offer, therefore I prefer to not have to interact with the spitefulness of those who will spend their efforts heaping scorn and ridicule on what needs to be said. I pray we may do what little we can do with the little means we have necessary to put out the message the Lord has directly communicated that I and others must publish, for it is not possible that we do more than we are doing to publish this. If the message is to be spread there must be help from someone or somewhere, for we have not the means nor ability to do more. It is very difficult to find a place in the world for the Lord to come to, or His angels, or His servants, or anyone who harbors that desire to be His servant, for the impersonators of Mormon Saints who have gained control of the Lord’s Church have placed fraudulent teachings over the people, teachings not supported by sound scripture. Yet the LDS people have allowed their minds to be bound by fraudulent teachings which refuse revelation from God to come among them. For in their pact with death and hell they have allowed those who have infiltrated and gained control of LDS Church leadership to restrict the Word of God based on faulty interpretation of scripture, forbidding the Lord to speak through any channel but the corrupt men who have temporarily seized control of the Lord’s Church. And in the test of the Saints, nearly all choose the everlasting chains of damnation rather than allow God to personally enter their lives and instruct them directly to act with boldness and courage to rediscover and spread the true Gospel of our Savior, Jesus Christ. For that being that men choose to follow will act continually upon them to guide them, and when anyone in mankind makes the decision to reject good or evil, that master which they initially chose to serve will act continually on them, and when they initially choose evil, they have renounced claim that Spirit of the Lord will have influence upon them unless they fully repent."Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?" (New Testament | Romans 6:16)So while much of the world looks to the return of the Lord and seeks signs of His coming, nevertheless, because there has not been left a place for the Lord to return, we are left with a world that has collectively chosen the darkness of deliberate ignorance. And the Lord, not having been left a place anywhere among mankind to return and dwell with them and having no servants in the world willing to take up His cross and follow in his works and footsteps, is given little choice by the rebellious condition of mankind. And thus we have scripture to gain insight from, that should all of mankind continually choose evil and reject the fullness of the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ, that the Lord has warned that "all flesh be consumed" (Doctrine and Covenants, Section 98:17) as consequences. For while our Lord seeks a place among men to return and dwell with His sacred presence, when a people will not repent sufficiently to be worthy of the Lord’s sacred presence, the Lord may have no choice but to carry out His warning that "all flesh be consumed." If mankind is wiped clean from the earth then this world may lose its standing to another world and different collection of spirits and inhabitants.With no encouragement and no worldly profit or gain, I have nothing to cling to other than faith in the Lord and faith in the knowledge of His prophecies that His people, the House of Israel American Indians, will find these promises of the Lord. As a people they will very soon will place value on these spiritual matters of the Lord, enough so that it will cause a great people to once again come together. United in their Lord and Savior Jesus Christ they will form among themselves the most impressive nation on Earth. The words of Paul were never more true than as applied to our day: "As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God. They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one. Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips..." (New Testament, Romans 3:10 - 13)The remarkable nature of the truth of the Lord’s Gospel has always been despised with hatred and jealously, as it is now with the knowledge that John the Revelator and the three Nephite of the Book of Mormon are continuing their work in the world where they may, in fulfilment of scriptural prophecy for our times. For the Lord’s Gospel is a wondrous history of spectacular miracles, and the plain and simple infant who was Christ our Lord and God and Savior was rejected the same, as the world desires to reject the miracles of our modern day when John the Revelator brings much knowledge to those whom he chooses to visit. Have you seen that man 2000 years old? If you have not left a place for him, one of the Lord’s servants, how can you claim you have left a place for the Lord himself to return? A man with power granted by the Lord beyond all mortal men; have you not left a place for him, nor the teachings of that Gospel you claim to believe? Blessed to observe all events in history; his involvement in our latter-day history is promised in these Latter days. Or do you only pretend to believe that the Mormon religion is true, restored to the earth through a prophet. The man who stands as witness to the persecution of the Christian Saints, referred to in the Bible as "the disciple whom Jesus loved" (John 21:20)Do you believe or will you scoff at anyone who has had religious experiences and been visited by the servants of the Lord in fulfillment of scriptural prophecy. Or do you no longer now believe in the scriptures themselves? Do you believe the Lord’s scripture, or do you mock, ( "that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts," New Testament | 2 Peter 3:3)?Do you only pretend to seek the truth? And if you degrade the Lord’s servants, what will prevent you from degrading the Lord himself? If you forbid the possibility or allow those whom you sustain to forbid that those servants of scriptural prophecy are playing a role in the latter days, then how can you possibly allow a place or possibility of the return of Christ himself? And what actual scripture allows you to presume the Lord would give all of his authority to weak in the flesh men who place restrictions on revelation that the Lord Himself and his servants cannot pass through? Have you truly allowed yourself to be so dictated to that you now presume to define limits on how the Lord and his servants will visit and accomplish their work? Do you truly think that originally ordained apostles of God’s Holy Church would abdicate their calling and submit their authority given to them directly by God to those timid men you now uphold? And should the Lord continue to not visit these worldly men you sustain and uphold, will you now mock those He does visit; do you now mock even the Lord himself? Do you claim infallibility for those appointed over you as the chief priests of the Jews of Old, who also inherited offices once held by godly men of earlier times, but twisted Gospel teachings to claim that their priesthood office gave them the right to rule over the thought processes of Israel? "And they led Jesus away to the high priest: and with him were assembled all the chief priests and the elders and the scribes. And Peter followed him afar off, even into the palace of the high priest: and he sat with the servants, and warmed himself at the fire. And the chief priests and all the council sought for witness against Jesus to put him to death..." (New Testament | Mark 14:53 - 55) " In the Book of Acts, Paul was also brought before the high priest and their perceived authority over him, as they had also supposed they had over Christ Himself. "Then said Paul unto him, God shall smite thee, thou whited wall: for sittest thou to judge me after the law, and commandest me to be smitten contrary to the law? And they that stood by said, Revilest thou God's high priest?" (New Testament | Acts 23:3 - 4); and finally a prophecy predicting the behavior of the religious leaders of today: "But they also have erred through wine, and through strong drink are out of the way; the priest and the prophet have erred through strong drink, they are swallowed up of wine, they are out of the way through strong drink; they err in vision, they stumble in judgment." (Old Testament | Isaiah 28:7)If you have not left a place for him, one of the Lord’s servants, how can you claim you have left a place for the Lord himself to return? Have you not left a place for the prophesied works of the Lord’s servants and translated servants? How do you explain the scriptures of that Gospel you claim to believe but can find no example of inspired men to lead the people out their confused state of mind? Seek to have the Spirit of the Lord dwell within you, for all are commanded to "take up my cross", as the Lord has said. And all are commanded to pattern their lives using Christ as an example, including if necessary, accepting the persecution, scorn and humiliation that was served against the Lord while He took a mortal body on earth. And were a man to ever follow in the Lord’s footsteps and live a mortal life as a perfect example with the same example and sacrifice that Christ made he would become like Christ in heaven. But because of man’s carnal nature and vulnerability to sin we must seek the Lord’s forgiveness, for "no unclean thing" may ever dwell in heaven. Redefined History On a daily basis we become more attuned to a campaign of re-defining of our family’s ancestors and that authentic history that we know to be true to be stained with modern interpretations of how these great American pioneers must have been in the eyes of a wicked society, instead of acknowledging the wealth of first hand accounts from those that witnessed and lived in this remarkable era. Although most history has been quietly purged from LDS members through active campaigns of book burnings, there is still a wealth of factual Mormon history and knowledge preserved by some that the revisionists have not yet completely eliminated. The now elderly servant of the Lord to whom was given great knowledge has dedicated his life against insurmountable odds and unspeakable hardships in an effort to take the Lord’s cross upon himself and stand alone to serve God. As he no longer has the strength to carry his beautiful message of Christ’s blessings to the people Israel, another of his sons writes the conclusion as follows: "The title page of the Book of Mormon boldly states ; Wherefore it is an abridgment of the record of the people of Nephi, and also of the Lamanites (the ancestors of the Native Americans)--------Written to the Lamanites, ( who are all of the peoples with Native American ancestry including all of the tribes both in North and South America who now number in the many millions.) who are a remnant of the house of Israel; and also to Jew and Gentile----Written by way of commandment, and also by the spirit of prophecy and of revelation----Written and sealed up(about 1600 years ago), and hid up unto the Lord, that they (the records of the Book of Mormon) might not be destroyed---- To come forth by the gift and power of God unto the interpretation thereof-----Sealed by the hand of Moroni, and hid up unto the Lord, to come forth in due time by way of the Gentile----The interpretation thereof by the gift of God. What are we to understand by this powerful passage? First and foremost that the Book of Mormon was written primarily to the Lamanites, those people of today who are descended from the original Native Americans. Secondly to the Jews and then to the Gentiles. The Book of Mormon is the sacred record of the ancestors of the Native Americans! It was written for the blessings and benefit of the Children of those who were most concerned for the salvation of their children’s children. It was written by tenderhearted Parents who through prophecy and visions could see their descendants of these later days, who suffered and fasted, prayed and covenanted with God the father for his blessings to be bestowed upon them. "But if thou boast, thou bearest not the root, but the root thee. " (New Testament | Romans 11:18)The Book of Mormon is unique in that it did not pass through the hands of many uninspired translators over the centuries to reach us. It was hidden away until the Lords servant Joseph Smith brought it forth and translated it through the power of God. It is a simple and powerful scripture that all men can understand. Written with plain words that are easy to understand. This record is free of the mistakes and omissions that plague the other scriptures. This means that the many prophecies concerning the people of these latter days are absolute and will come to pass! The Mormon church was founded on sound principles, and based on the unalterable decrees of heaven, that the Gospel was the same exact Gospel in the days of Adam, that it was in the Days of Jesus Christ, and that it was presented by the hand of the Lord through Joseph Smith in all its Glory. As unchangeable and exactly the same as the religion of Adam and Jesus Christ for time and all eternity! To think otherwise is foolish folly. The 1845 Proclamation of the Twelve Apostles In 1845 not long after Joseph Smith was Martyred, the Twelve Apostles of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints made a landmark Proclamation. These excerpts are quoted and show some of the great events that will shortly transpire. "We testify that the foregoing doctrine is the doctrine or gospel of Jesus Christ in its fulness; and that it is the only true, everlasting, and unchangeable gospel; and the only plan revealed on earth whereby man can be saved." "We also bear testimony that the "Indians" (so called) of North and South America are a remnant of the tribes of Israel, as is now made manifest by the discovery and revelation of their ancient oracles and records." "And that they are about to be gathered, and made one Nation in this glorious land. They will also come to the knowledge of their forefathers, and of the fullness of the gospel; and they will embrace it and become a righteous branch of the house of Israel." "And we further testify that the Lord has appointed a holy city and temple to be built on this continent, for the endowment and ordinances pertaining to the priesthood; and for the Gentiles (those who have repented and are numbered with the Lamanites), and the remnant of the house of Israel to resort unto, in order to worship the Lord, and to be taught in his ways and walk in his paths;" "The Western Continent will present a scene of grandeur, greatness, and glory, far surpassing the scene just described (of Jerusalem, Battle of Armageddon etc.). The Lord will make her that halted a remnant, and gather her that was driven out and afflicted; and make her who was cast afar off a strong Nation; and will reign over them in Mount Zion from that time forth and forever. Or in other words he will assemble the natives, the remnants of Joseph in America, and make of them a great, and strong and powerful nation;" " And there shall be his tabernacle, his sanctuary , his throne, and seat of government for the whole continent of North and South America forever;""And there the Messiah will visit them in person; and the old Saints who will then have been raised from the dead, will be with him; and he will establish his kingdom and laws over all the land." "The despised and degraded son of the forest, who has wandered in dejection and sorrow, and suffered reproach, shall then drop his disguise and stand forth in manly dignity, and exclaim to the Gentiles who have envied and sold him-"I am Joseph; does my father yet live?" or in other words, I am a descendant of Joseph who was sold into Egypt. You have hated me, sold me, and thought I was dead; but lo! I live and am heir to the inheritance, titles, honours, priesthood, sceptre, crown, throne, and eternal life and dignity of my fathers, who live forevermore. He shall then be ordained, washed, anointed with holy oil, and arrayed in fine linen, even in the glorious and beautiful garments and royal robes of the high priesthood which is after the order of the Son of God; and shall enter into the congregation of the Lord, even into the Holies of Holies, there to be crowned with authority and power which shall never end. "The spirit of the Lord shall then descend upon him like the dew upon the mountains of Hermon, and like the refreshing showers of rain upon the flowers of Paradise." "His heart shall expand with knowledge, wide as eternity, and his mind shall comprehend the vast creations of his God, and his eternal purpose of redemption, glory, and exaltation, which was devised in heaven before the worlds were organized; but made manifest in these latter days, for the fulness of the Gentiles, and for the exaltation of Israel." "He shall also behold his Redeemer, and be filled with his presence, while the cloud of his glory shall be seen in his temple." "The city of Zion, with its sanctuary and priesthood, and the glorious fulness of the gospel, will constitute a standard which will put an end to jarring creeds and political wranglings, by uniting the republics, states, provinces, territories, nations, tribes, kindred, tongues, people, and sects of North and South America in one great and common bond of brotherhood; while truth and knowledge shall make them free, and love cement their union." "The Lord also shall be their king and their lawgiver: while wars shall cease and peace prevail a thousand years." The Mormon Mission to the Lamanites As can be easily seen the first generation of Mormon people considered this mission to the Lamanites to be of the utmost importance. To further illustrate this, we will quote from some of the earlier leaders of the Mormon Church. Church Apostle Orson Pratt 1855: "If the Mormons didn’t make an all out effort to take the knowledge of the Book of Mormon to the Indians, and help them as much as they possibly could, the Mormons would be guilty of being at ease in Zion, as foretold by Isaiah, and in the book of Mormon." Several years later as he realized that the Mormon people were not heedful of their mission to the Native Americans, Orson Pratt made this statement. "We have forgotten the forlorn condition of the sons of Joseph, the American Indians. We have forgotten predictions of the Holy prophets among their fathers, who so earnestly prayed to the most high for themselves, and their children to the latest generation, whose prayers have been recorded in eternity and preserved in the archives of heaven, to be answered upon the head of their posterity in the last days. We have forgotten these things and are dwelling at ease in Zion, and neglecting the great redemption of Israel." " We have learned something, we are in possession of knowledge concerning these sons of the forest. Shall we therefore dwell at ease and allow the Indians to remain in ignorance of the great truths that we are in possession of concerning them? If so, wo be unto these people or any other people that are entrusted with the sacred things committed to our charge, and who do not use them, for the redemption of those that are unacquainted with this knowledge. How do you think their fathers would feel to see their descendants, without the knowledge of God and their ancestors? And then turn and see a people in their midst in possession of the sacred records and prophecies of their fathers, and yet that people, so careless and so much at ease that they used scarcely any exertion to impart a heavenly knowledge to them. And if we do not accomplish this work of bringing this knowledge to the Israelites, we shall be accounted as salt that has lost its savor, and is no longer good for anything but to be trodden under the feet of Israel, or our enemies. Who so will not extend the hand of mercy to help the Indians, will go down and lose their influence with God and all good men." And again in 1875 Orson Pratt stated; "Many have flattered themselves that we (the Mormons) are the ones, it is not so. We have got to be the helpers, we have got to be those who cooperate with the Indians, for the Lord will have respect unto them, because they are of the blood of Israel, and the promises of their fathers extends unto them. Brigham Young stated in 1853; "I wish to put you in mind of a few things. Do you pray for Israel? You will no doubt answer in the affirmative. These Indians are the seed of Israel, through the loins of Joseph who was sold into Egypt; they are the children of Abraham, and belong to the chosen seed.....They are of the house of Israel, and the time has come for the Lord to favor Zion, and redeem Israel." All of the first generation Mormons believed that they had a mission to the Native Americans, and that they were of the blood of Israel. The first Mormons believed in the importance of their mission, indeed that their very salvation was to be determined by their actions toward their brethren the American Indian peoples. These things are still regarded as a sacred responsibility by all of those few who still profess to believe in the true Mormon religion. But sadly we see that the majority of the Mormon Church has become at ease in Zion and even are trying to destroy the great mission to the Lamanites that our fathers regarded so highly.The great Apostasy of the Mormon Church "It is with great sadness that these things must be said. But as the Book of Mormon has foretold the modern L.D.S. peoples have come full circle from being the oppressed and downtrodden honest and sincere people, to becoming the oppressors and persecutors of those who are seeking after the truth. They also have come full circle from believing in an unchangeable religion that was based on the unalterable decrees of God, into now believing in the destructive belief of a religion that must change and adapt to the modern times. Which is just as ridiculous as changing or adding rules to a game in the middle of the game while it is being played. Mormon 8 verse 33 " O ye wicked and perverse and stiffnecked people, why have ye built up churches unto yourselves to get gain? Why have ye transfigured the holy word of God, that ye might bring damnation upon your souls? ............" Who could transfigure the holy word of God? Only those who profess to belong to the church that has his holy word could transfigure it. Mormon 8 verse 38 "O ye pollutions , ye hypocrites, ye teachers, who sell yourselves for that which will canker, why have ye polluted the holy church of God?" Why are ye ashamed to take upon you the name of Christ? Why do ye not think that greater is the value of an endless happiness than that misery which never dies—because of the praise of the world? Who could pollute the holy church of God? Only the members who profess to belong to his church could do so! Word of the Lord First Message section 15 1. "And unto thee, thou greatly favored, unto thee, I the Lord, at this time, have a word of warning and a word of sharp rebuke. The ear of the Almighty hath heard your slandering, and your back_biting, and your lying; and they are of that blackness which cometh from the depths of hell; yea, they are of the spirit of that Wicked One, who maketh war upon me; and who hath gendered strife, and bitterness, and hatred, in the hearts of my people from the first; for which cause, Zion was lost unto them. Take heed, therefore, for I will rebuke my people suddenly with the shaft of death. I will make bare mine arm in the midst of them, and they shall know that I am God. 2." And now, even now, will I make them to understand, that of old it was truly said, a prophet is not without honor save in his own country, and in his own city, and with his own people. 3."From whence came the stones that killed the prophets? Were they from the highways of the Gentiles, or yet from the gates of Jerusalem? Were they not the gall stones of the bitterness of Israel? And Israel's stony heart, which their sins had petrified; and were they not gathered out from the Dead Sea of a spiritual kingdom? Behold, now, from the putrid waters I still smell a detestable odor; and who that hath scented the shores of the two seas, can distinguish? 4. "Will you cast me out, saith the Lord; and will you abandon me as a thing to be hated? Hear now the Lord speak: With a man will I rebuke a great nation, and with my rod will I punish a holy people. 5. "For a rod, indeed, have I brought forth out of the stem of Jesse. Yea, like unto a sword with two sharp edges have I brought it forth, saith the lord. Can you remember when I would not punish Israel? I will search out the back_biter, and the slanderer will I hunt down in the midst of you, and I will hate you who have hated me, and cast you out who have cast me out, except you repent, saith the Lord. 6. "Behold, ye know that my coming is at the door and ye look for a prophet. Verily, I say unto you, at the door of the tabernacle of Zion have I laid a stone of stumbling and a rock of offense. Will you bring into her gates the blindness that fell upon Judah? You have brought an evil report. One has lied against me, and a whole company have believed the lie. You have been tale_bearers against me. Yea, from a distance, and from afar off, you have borne a false witness against me. 7. "From the north you have lied, and out of the earth you have lied; even out of the very ground, you have lied against me, saith the Lord. Lo, these many years you have lied. 8." Yet, I would not speak. I did not answer. I would not suffer my silence to be broken; that my people might fill up their cup to the full; that I might deal with them, saith the Lord; and that after that, I might once again renew unto them the word of the Lord, and bless them, saith the Lord of Hosts." "If you are a Later-day Saint in good standing and are in possession of the above words and try to spread them around to awaken your neighbors you may be excommunicated. Or at least threatened to be. 3rd Nephi,16 -10-11 "And thus commandeth the father that I should say unto you: At that day when the Gentiles shall sin against my gospel, and shall be lifted up in the pride of their hearts above all nations, and above all the people of the whole earth, and shall be filled with all manner of lyings, and of deceits, and of mischiefs, and all manner of hypocrisy, and murders, and priestcrafts, and whoredoms, and secret abominations; and if they shall do all of those things, and shall reject the fulness of my gospel, behold saith the Father, I will bring the fulness of my gospel from among them. And then will I remember my covenant which I have made unto my people, O house of Israel, (the American Indians) and I will bring my gospel unto them." Just a few decades ago when studying this scripture one would ask, how can this be said of the Mormons? That they would even commit murders? But today with their liberal abortion stand which is a mockery of decency, in that they claim to be against abortion, with the exception of five allowances that virtually create abortion on demand. In which they allow murdering an unborn child for the sins of its father as in rape and incest. Murdering an unborn child for fetal deformities, even the scenario of a cleft palate that is surgically repairable would fall into a category that would be allowed. Murdering an unborn child for Health of the mother? A very broad statement. Or for mental trauma? Has anything been left out? Convenience perhaps! Where are the valiant Latter-day Saints who should be defending the weak and helpless unborn children? Where are the leaders of our time? Where is the rallying call, the powerful speeches, the mass protests? What happened to the beacon of light? Has it been hidden under a bushel basket? Would it have made a difference lo these many years if a valiant people numbering in the millions had come out and fought a hard fight against this heinous crime? A predominantly L.D.S. Deseret News poll recently announced that at the time the poll was taken that 54 per cent of its readership favored the Roe-V-Wade supreme court decision which legalized abortion across our land. What a shameful loathsome record the Church has in their defense of the unborn babies, and of standing valiantly for the just cause of human life. Doctrine and Covenants sec. 132 verse 27. "The blasphemy against the Holy Ghost, which shall not be forgiven in the world nor out of the world, is in that ye commit murder wherein ye shed innocent blood, and assent unto my death, after ye have received my new and everlasting covenant, saith the Lord God; and he that abideth not this law can in nowise enter into my glory, but shall be damned saith the Lord." Who has more innocent blood than an unborn child? An unborn innocent child that the demons of hell delight in seeing sacrificed to moloch or the Devil through abortion. History will remember us as a barbaric society that murdered our own offspring. And the present day L.D.S. as a lazy and material people, who are fence sitters that were so complacent that they did nothing to defend one of the most sacred of all gifts, and most righteous of all religious principles, the right to life. What a disgraceful shame for the church and its leaders to bear. What caused this people to go from being a strong and valiant people who would fight for the right to life, to being so weak? And thus allowing the murder of the unborn to creep in among them and gain an insidious foot hold that will damn them with the deepest damnation, with the blood of this generation on their garments. Doctrine and Covenants 103 verses 9 &10 "For they were set to be a light unto the world, and to be the saviors of men. And inasmuch as they are not the saviors of men, they are as salt that has lost its savor, and is thenceforth good for nothing but to be cast out and trodden under foot of men." It is again with much sadness that we must bring to light these serious matters. Where the leaders of the present day L.D.S. will not even lift a finger to protect the integrity and the reputations of the earlier first generation leaders. Indeed they have allowed forgeries and slanderous falsehoods to circulate and be reported by their minions of so-called historians and teachers as accurate historical fact! Resulting in ridiculous accusations of money digging, white witchcraft, superstitious nonsense, fumbling, bungling, hillbilly like behavior that is accepted by the masses of the modern L.D.S.. All of this and more they allow to be said of the foundation of this church! Apparently trying to destroy the very pillars that this church is built upon. These modern L.D.S. leaders who have the blood of this generation on their garments, in their puffed up pride think that because of their great learning, easy lives and worldly wealth, that they are superior to the real prophets that through great tribulation organized and brought this church forth. "Recently Satanic Pentagrams were introduced by the present L.D.S. leaders as being an authentic religious symbol of our pioneer church! Even though the first Pentagrams started appearing on modern church buildings in the 1980's. And now there are dozens of them that adorn their newly reconstructed Nauvoo Temple. There were no pentagrams on the original Nauvoo Temple. Pentagrams are a symbol of the Devil. In so doing has the Modern L.D.S. leaders crossed the line of no return? Can they tear out the marks of Satan on an edifice that was built with his marks and make it a Holy House Of The Lord? Even if this was done through stupidity and ignorance? The answer is obvious, a resounding NO! And then the question arises, what of all of the people that have had temple ceremonies performed in this building whose pentagrams proudly proclaim "that all who enter herein are under the power of Satan". Are all of their eternal marriages, and all that they hold sacred, still valid? If you were a follower of Satan you would think this very funny, if you were a Saint you would not. Discrediting the Book of Mormon "The modern leadership of this church have come full circle from believing the Book of Mormon to be an all inclusive sacred record of North and South America and its ancient inhabitants. As well as containing prophecies that are applicable to our day, that was translated by the gift and power of God. To now believing in a record that only covered a small part among a small number of people! Many of them have called it an interesting historical document of the time, and that it has many stories in it that give you a parable to live by. They now give allegorical, symbolistic and metaphorically vague and mysterious meanings to passages from the Book of Mormon that were once and still are easy to the understanding of man. They are so wrapped up in their vain and fanciful interpretations of chapter and verse that they fail to see the simple messages that are contained in the pure uncontaminated Gospel that is in the Book of Mormon! They love mystery Babylon and allow historical fiction to fill their bookcases and let those whose blasphemous fictitious works cloud mens minds with nonsense instead of fact. This they spread like a plague among the people that profess to be Latter Day Saints. With reckless abandon they rewrite the history of the early church, portraying this history as from a time of great ignorance, and gradually replacing this rich spiritual history with fictional nonsense in disgusting movies such as two Work and the Glory movies, the Book of Mormon movie; the wicked extent of this silliness extending to movies of modern missionaries et cetera, ad nauseam. Wherein they have contemptible contemporary actors portray their interpretations of what they think should have happened. which destroys and undermines what really did happen, and those who read and watch these books and movies are filling their minds with useless fictional information that will cloud their minds and as the years go by they will not be able to differentiate between the fiction and the facts! If one were preparing for a great debate would one study fictional reports of the subject matter prior to the great debate? Or would one study the actual facts if they wished to do well in the debate? Not to mention that it lines the pockets of these authors and movie makers who are traitors, who sell out their own religion, with the filthy lucre that they are greedily seeking after. And all the while church authorities spend millions of the poor tithe payers moneys on light minded, silly and contemptible radio and television advertisements, advertising an elitist "Family" that does not exist, or give your baby up for adoption for strangers to raise your baby, so that later in life your child will not know its own heritage and genealogy or the love that only the real mother can have for her own baby that she has bonded with through pregnancy, and is a part of her. Adoption shouldn’t be considered for a young womsn if she is at all able to take care of the child. Only in rare circumstances should the baby be given up. And yet through all of this they forget and ignore the teachings of the Book of Mormon, and the more serious side of the true Mormon religion. With much knowledge comes much responsibility. Those who are in leadership positions in the Church will be held accountable by the Lord God Almighty. This is a very sobering thought that all of the elders, high priests, bishops, stake presidents, and general authorities will be held accountable for their stewardships, and they must realize that the church is not a social club, or a plaything. For "...Justice is mine saith the Lord." Jealousy of the Native American Birthright Among the worst of these egregious denials of what was once vital to the original thinking of the church, is that they no longer consider the American Indians to be Israelites. The latest attack against the American Indians and the divine nature of The Book of Mormon are the DNA analysis to show related patterns between Asians and American Indians. These DNA studies can only show whether or not if one race is related to another, the Eskimos and the Inuits ( who may have come from this continent ) have had commerce across the Bering straights ( the trip by kayak is a little over 8 hours, and a day by foot when the straights are frozen over, or a few hours by dog sled.) for upwards of 2000 years now, so which one is influenced by which? Could it be that the American Indian DNA is present over there because of trading and intermarriage and not the other way around as they suppose? Why is it that only limited Asiatic populations show related DNA to the American Indians? DNA studies do not show origins, they only show relations. With this they imagine in their minds that if they can show through these vague DNA studies that the American Indians are of Asian descent. Then they won’t have to respect them and repent and be numbered with the American Indians as the principle people who are full blooded Israelites and the Gentiles who would be their helpers in the new dispensation, as the Book of Mormon teaches. So once again they try to rewrite the meaning of the Book of Mormon to suit themselves in their ever-changing world, while totally ignoring the unchangeable nature of the true Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. They imagine in their hearts that if they deny the birthright of the American Indian that it will just go away and that they will not be troubled by it any more. Why do they not think that greater is an endless happiness than that misery which never dies? Or how can they imagine that they can change the unalterable decrees of God? The Descendants of the people of the Book of Mormon will save the Mormon Church. The people of Lamanite descent are the ones who will save the faltering Church of Jesus Christ of Later-day Saints. The rapidly growing numbers of people who are of native ancestry will soon outnumber the membership of the Gentiles. It has been calculated that by the year 2020 that three out of five of the membership of the church will be the peoples of native American Ancestry (if it is allowed to go on that long). Who through the rapidly growing areas in Mexico and South America will soon be the Majority in the Church. These natural branches who are grafted into the vineyard as it were, will replace the lofty branches that now bring forth bitter fruit. And the lofty branches that now bring forth bitter fruit will be cleared away. Jacob 5 verse 74. "And thus they labored, with all diligence, according to the commandments of the Lord of the vineyard, even until the bad had been cast away out of the vineyard, and the Lord had preserved unto himself that the trees had become again the natural fruit; and they became like unto one body; and the fruits were equal; and the Lord of the vineyard had preserved unto himself the natural fruit, which was most precious unto him from the beginning ." There must be a separation of the righteous from the wicked Just as the parable of the vineyard says there must be a separation of the wicked from the righteous, so that the choice fruit will once again come forth. Much depends on a setting in order of this church. This must occur if we are to see the prophecies of our scriptures fulfilled. Our church has become polluted and corrupted almost to the brink of total spiritual annihilation. The price for this Church being established was all of the sacrifice, the terrible persecutions, and mobbings, the loss of many of the early saints lives through privations, starvation, and hardships that were almost impossible to bear. And all of the unmarked graves that lined the Mormon trail to this valley, and the blood of all the martyred prophets cries from the ground for vengeance against those who have polluted this church. Has all of this been for vain? Has all of this been for the benefit of all of these who call themselves Latter-Day Saints who have failed their missions and are at ease in Zion? And indeed is our entire earth in jeopardy as well? Will the powers of Satan overcome and the whole earth succumb? These are some of the sobering questions that must be asked. Joseph Smith established a link between heaven and earth Through much tribulation was the Mormon Church established and brought forth. Joseph Smith established a conduit between heaven and earth in that he received direct revelation from God. After mobs murdered him in cold blood, the conduit was kept open by the faithful saints and leaders of that day. Much of the church has apostatized from the original teachings and now it seems that this conduit is a very small thread, and this is kept alive only by a handful of people who are still faithful to the original teachings of the early church. The Word of the Lord First Message 10, v. 10 -13 "Wherefore, O ye children of men, turn ye from all of your vain delusions, and I the Lord your God, even your Savior, will show you the way; and again, as in days of old, make plain to you the path which leadeth unto life eternal. And now behold, there are many ten- thousand who will do this; and they are unto me as mine Israel in the day when the Prophet Elijah sorrowed because he alone was left of all those who worshiped the true and living God, and I showed unto him that seven thousand of the children of Israel had not bent the knee unto Baal. Of such is the Kingdom of heaven. They are they which have believing hearts, and are lowly of spirit; and they will hear the voice of the Good Shepherd. They are mine, saith the Lord, and I will preserve them and keep them in the hollow of my hand. And after they have been tried in the furnace of affliction and the scourges are past, then will I gather them upon all the lands of their fathers; tribe for tribe, and race for race, will I place them, every tongue and every people in their own lands. And they will know me, their Lord, and walk in my statutes; and I will be in their midst, and rule over them for a thousand years to come." We now ask, if there are seven thousand that have not bent the knee to the image of Baal, where are they? And when will they finally step forward to be valliant for Christ? Or will this work just be left up to one frail and elderly man while others born and called to be valiant stand by idly and allow Satan to overwhelm what little life that is still left in the roots of the Mormon Church? We have scrimped and saved and tried to bring these things out and keep the conduit between heaven and earth alive. Our father is very old and in poor health, he is a veteran of WWII and has used much of his "widows mite" to fund all of this. To us he is a living treasure, his grandfather was a Mormon pioneer and two of his great-grandfathers were original Apostles of the Mormon Church. For nearly thirty years now he has sent letters to editors, bought little advertisement spaces for his spiritual messages in American Indian newspapers to help them realize their choice birthright. And helped to fund these websites. We have never asked any man for help. We have almost never been encouraged by those with whom we have had any contacts, but we have met with a very stiff opposition to this cause. Almost at every turn there has been some self-righteous hypocrite who has cried out against us. Why do we face all of this opposition? Why do we struggle so to keep the original Mormon religion alive? Why do they go out of their way to try and discredit us, and our efforts to protect our heritage? All we are trying to do is keep the true message of the Mormon Religion alive. To defend our original prophets and ancestors and the sacred Book of Mormon, so that we may hand down to our children the legacy of this unchangeable religion in its unblemished form. Just as our father handed it down to us. The Lord showed unto the prophet Elijah that seven thousand of the Israelites had not bowed the knee to Baal. In all of these years we have not seen more than what you could count on your fingers of those valiant ones that are spoken of. And most of them are now dead. We do not want those who have no oil in their lamps to come to us. When they come they want to take what little oil we have, and sadly as experience has taught us the hard way, we have none to spare. Those who come must not be the ones that wish to ride on somebody else’s coat tails, and that say they are willing to serve you if you will only show them, and tell them every little thing that they must do to be saved, so that they don’t have to think or have any self motivation or initiative. All these people do is drain those who have oil in their lamps. If by chance their acquaintance is met and they have offer an explanation for their views, the most seemingly awake and watchful among them offer the excuse that they expect the "One mighty and strong" spoke of in the Doctrine and Covenants (85) will eventually arrive as some "mighty and supernatural force to set in order the Church," while remaining forgetful of the fact that this is exactly the kind of thinking that snared the greatest thinkers among the Jews 2000 years ago when they awaited the grand entrance of a mighty and powerful Messiah in lieu of a simple and poor humble carpenter. We find many who resemble the Jews of old, waiting for signs or a supernatural force to spur them into action Instead the clock continues ticking away on the time of man’s probation, and good men, wherever they may be, continually do nothing to advance the cause of our Lord. We want those who already have their own oil, that they may keep theirs and we may keep ours, and together we may add to what we now have. We invite the valiant ones as spoken of to join us in the blessings of keeping the true and unspoiled Mormon religion alive. And fulfilling our missions as servants to the Lord. We have found many who sit back and do nothing to aid this just cause, although they are glad that we are doing it, they are content to let us. Are we to bear this burden alone? Or perhaps the Lord will also show us many more who would be willing to gain his blessings and aid us in this great work. For at this time there are thousands of modern Mormon websites, but they all have their own agendas. Their ego’s get in the way, they have all given in to some modern vain philosophy or tenet of modern Christianity, they all have in a sense bent the knee to Baal. To our knowledge we have the only websites that are strictly for the truth of the early Mormon teachings. Which seems now to be the unpopular position to take, and all who now take this position must, it seems, stand alone. The hour is late, time nor tide wait for no man. The judgements of God will soon be upon us. We must find the Lord while he can still be found, for the time soon cometh that the hour of mans probation is over and the Lord cannot be found. In these perilous times we are not sure how long we will be permitted to continue in this work. Or how long our Father will be with us. So it is with a heavy heart that we write these things. And we write these things as if they may be the last of what we may be permitted to write. Trying with all diligence to tell all as it is, in the plainest form possible, so that the truth of what we say may reach all who read this. It is our fervent hope that the Lord will bless all of you who love the truth as much as we. And that somehow the truth will prevail and our earth will be victorious and not fail.
