THE HOUSE OF THE LORD HOLINESS TO THE LORD

Zion, January 1, 2012

Holiness to the LORD, the House of the LORD

For verily this generation shall not all pass away until an house shall be built unto the Lord, and a cloud shall rest upon it, which cloud shall be even the glory of the Lord, which shall fill the house.

 

(Doctrine and Covenants | Section 84:5)

 

There is a well known proverb in the holy writ that says: Where there is no vision the people perish, but happy is he that keeps the law.

This scripture written by Solomon and the one previous to it by Joseph Smith, Jr.  the prophet of GOD who heads this dispensation of the gospel brings to mind the solemn thought that we cannot keep the law of God unless we surely know it.  And how can we possibly know it unless it is received and written by the very own finger of God in our very own hearts and minds in the House of the LORD so that we can walk in his righteous ways and be happy both in this life and in the life to come.

 If I am not mistaken, even the great Moses received the great law in the great mount from the great Jehovah who is the greatest of all from everlasting to everlasting.  Fortunately in this the dispensation of the fullness of times, or in these latter days of restitution and restoration we have the blessing that the heavens are open and the visions of eternity are, have and will continue to been shown to modern apostles and prophets in the house of the LORD or in any other high and holy place. As a result, we now have a great many temples in the world or the in the mountain of the lord house where men and women are endowed with power from on high in order to receive the greatest blessings the LORD has intended for the eternal happiness of his children which is to obtain immortality and eternal life. And the fame of his holiness and of his house is great among his true believers and beyond. For of this it is written in a vision of the almighty to his servants when the first house of this dispensation was erected unto the LORD:

Yea, I will appear unto my servants, and speak unto them with mine own voice, if my people will keep my commandments, and do not pollute this holy house. Yea the hearts of thousands and tens of thousands shall greatly rejoice in consequence of the blessings which shall be poured out, and the endowment with which my servants have been endowed in this house. And the fame of this house shall spread to foreign lands; and this is the beginning of the blessing which shall be poured out upon the heads of my people.  Even so.  Amen.

 

(Doctrine and Covenants | Section 110:8 - 10)

 

Today, I am here to solemnly testify that in my dreams of the night I saw GOD, yet not entirely to my satisfaction; and this I say because of perceived personal unworthiness.  Yet, I beheld that as I was going towards the mountain of the LORD making many tokens, signs and uttering holy words to enquire personally from him about my current life predicament. And when I finished uttering the same words that Adam must have uttered, I heard and saw the LORD almighty coming to succor me in the clouds of heaven as in a chariot of fire.  As he made his terrible appearance, I was going towards him before being admitted into his presence; and I heard that he spoke many great words which I could not completely understand.  And I told him so, yet I herds the words of his voice was like the thunder and like the rushing of many waters.  Nevertheless it was a still small voice that one had to apply the ear to hear it. And I no longer remember what the LORD said, But I believe that these are the words he uttered:

BEHOLD, and hearken unto the voice of him who has all power, who is from everlasting to everlasting, even Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end.

 

(Doctrine and Covenants | Section 61:1)

 

And I will make an everlasting covenant with them, that I will not turn away from them, to do them good; but I will put my fear in their hearts, that they shall not depart from me. Yea, I will rejoice over them to do them good, and I will plant them in this land assuredly with my whole heart and with my whole soul. For thus saith the LORD; Like as I have brought all this great evil upon this people, so will I bring upon them all the good that I have promised them. And fields shall be bought in this land, whereof ye say, It is desolate without man or beast; it is given into the hand of the Chaldeans. Men shall buy fields for money, and subscribe evidences, and seal them, and take witnesses in the land of Benjamin, and in the places about Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, and in the cities of the mountains, and in the cities of the valley, and in the cities of the south: for I will cause their captivity to return, saith the LORD.

 

(Old Testament | Jeremiah 32:40 - 44)

 

Not long after I heard all this, the LORD must have placed his foot upon the mount and it was rent and it was broken into many pieces inasmuch that I could not stand on  my feet and I fell inasmuch that I was left hanging by one hand upon a rock near the cliff of the abyss, yet I was not one bit fearful of afraid of falling for I so much wanted to meet with him that I hanged on a rock until all the quaking and trembling ceased.

And as soon as I beheld the feet and body of his person by my hand; for he came fearful as in his whole shining armor, I gained some strength to climb onto where he himself was standing. And as soon as I was safe, I embraced his feet or his legs as a child clings to the legs of his own father when he is departing. And I cried loudly onto him like a child unto his father saying:  Father, I need thee, Father I need thee. It was as if I had not seen him for the longest time or as if I was going to be sent into a most perilous mission where my return unto him was uncertain.  And I was so much embracing him that I could not see his face because I was as clinging or holding fast onto him.  However, as I cried to him, I could hear my own voice and it was the voice of a child of about seven to ten years old and so was my stature.

Now, all these words bring to mind the House of the LORD, and how much it is needed in every city of the world before his great coming in the clouds of fire and brimstone. But most importantly how much we need to have a House to the holiness of the LORD among the Jews or in the city of Jerusalem.  And these thoughts and desires have moved me to pray earnestly unto the LORD and enquire of him when he is going to build his house in the city of Jerusalem. And he said unto me that it will take place when his people in Jerusalem ask him earnestly to do so.  I replied to him, that if it would not be an unrighteous thing for this foreigner Jew to ask of him exactly that; or at the very least that I would not want to die until I see his holy house erected in the holy city of Jerusalem.  And my desire to ask him that came because of the need of reinstating righteous sacrifices among us, his people, as a result of the vexation to the soul caused by liquidity of collective sins that more often than not derail or mar the minds of his rightful priests.

And this is the reason by which I am writing this errand today; yea, to invite any and all my fellow Jews to begin to pray with real intent for the much needed blessing of restoring or rebuilding the house of the LORD in Jerusalem or the land of our ancient fathers for the gathering of the sheaves; or for the gathering of our people unto the LORD before his great and dreadful day is upon us less we fall in the pit alive like in the days of provocation.

I am a Davidic Jew but not a Jewish. And I  who want to return to my home land but I can’t because I am also a Christian and I cannot prove my true heritage to my brethren by my testimony alone; and I will not lie with intend to deceive, much less deny that Jesus is the Christ. 

I hate all democracies for they are more the rule of people instead of the rule of law. And I pray that Israel or that the land of Jerusalem, which is the land of my ancient fathers, one day becomes a nation or a republic instead of a democracy where there is freedom of religion so that no one is hindered from the freedom of worship according to the dictates of their own conscience as it is here in Zion or in the continent of America.  And what I wish for this nation I wish for all. For without this intrinsic freedom of worship and/or religion, there cannot be a true temple erected in Jerusalem or anywhere else in the world. And until then, the Jews, the gentiles and the pagan nations must suffer in ignorance.

I know without the shadow of a doubt that all things are possible with God; and it all begins with a desire. And this is my desire.  And in response to this thus saith the LORD unto me as he sais unto my fathers:

If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. Now mine eyes shall be open, and mine ears attent unto the prayer that is made in this place. For now have I chosen and sanctified this house, that my name may be there for ever: and mine eyes and mine heart shall be there perpetually.

 

And as for thee, if thou wilt walk before me, as David thy father walked, and do according to all that I have commanded thee, and shalt observe my statues and my judgments; Then will I stablish the throne of thy kingdom, according as I have covenanted with David thy father, saying, There shall not fail thee a man to be ruler in Israel.

 

(Old Testament | 2 Chronicles 7:14 - 18)

 

Now the way has been paved before us like an ensign unto the world by the LORD’s messenger, even by the book of Mormon and by the Lord’s presence or is Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints which for the most part are form the house of Ephraim or the seed of Joseph.  We are for the most part enjoying the great blessing of the temple. All is left is for our people and it is time that we being to seek the face of the LORD earnestly and diligently peradventure he gets angry again as in the day of the provocation and hides his face again from us as a people because of the hardness of heart of his people who in the days of Moses were stiff necked and too fearful that in fear of death they could not endure his voice of the LORD  and his presence.

And know that by small means the LORD accomplishes that which is great in his eyes. Prayer is sometimes that medium that brings many blessing to the children of men.  Of this I solemnly testify because it was the uttering of a humble prayer of a young and humble Ephrata named Joseph Smith Jr.  that the heavens were opened to mankind once again after ages of spiritual darkness or apostasy.  And also, as a result of that prayer in the due process of time, that the gospels of Jesus Christ and the kingdom of God on earth were restored once again on earth.  And Glory be to God and the lamb and praises be also given unto the Holy Ghost, and/or to the man who communed with Jehovah for, save Jesus Christ, no other man in this world has done more for the salvation of man than Joseph Smith, and his fame can never be vanished.  Of this it is solemnly written and his testimony is in full force for:

“Joseph Smith, the Prophet and Seer of the Lord, has done more, save Jesus only, for the salvation of men in this world, than any other man that ever lived in it.  In the short space of twenty years, he has brought forth the Book of Mormon, which he translated by the gift and power of God, and has been the means of publishing it on two continents; has sent the fulness of the everlasting gospel, which it contained, to the four quarters of the earth; has brought forth the revelations and commandments which compose this book of Doctrine and Covenants, and many other wise documents and instructions for the benefit of the children of men; gathered many thousands of the Latter-day Saints, founded a great city, and left a fame and name that cannot be slain.   He lived great, and he died great in the eyes of God and his people; and like most of the Lord's anointed in ancient times, has sealed his mission and his works with his own blood; and so has his brother Hyrum.  In life they were not divided, and in death they were not separated!

 

When Joseph went to Carthage to deliver himself up to the pretended requirements of the law, two or three days previous to his assassination, he said: "I am going like a lamb to the slaughter; but I am calm as a summer's morning; I have a conscience void of offense towards God, and towards all men.  I SHALL DIE INNOCENT, AND IT SHALL YET BE SAID OF ME—HE WAS MURDERED IN COLD BLOOD."—The same morning, after Hyrum had made ready to go—shall it be said to the slaughter?  yes, for so it was—he read the following paragraph, near the close of the twelfth chapter of Ether, in the Book of Mormon, and turned down the leaf upon it:

 

And it came to pass that I prayed unto the Lord that he would give unto the Gentiles grace, that they might have charity.  And it came to pass that the Lord said unto me: If they have not charity it mattereth not unto thee, thou hast been faithful; wherefore thy garments shall be made clean.  And because thou hast seen thy weakness, thou shalt be made strong, even unto the sitting down in the place which I have prepared in the mansions of my Father.  And now I . . . bid farewell unto the Gentiles; yea, and also unto my brethren whom I love, until we shall meet before the judgment–seat of Christ, where all men shall know that my garments are not spotted with your blood.  The testators are now dead, and their testament is in force.

 

(Doctrine and Covenants | Section 135:3 - 5)

 

But that is not all! Those critics doctors of the law who speak evil from us, claim that our church previous to 1978 discriminated against blacks concerning the bestowal of the holy priesthood. And as a result many false stories have been invented and do still circulate in the world to defame us.  Let me state that the priesthood or the gift of God to minister and administer the everlasting gospel in his name came by the will of GOD unto all the righteous, but it was not until 1978 that the ban on the seed of Cain was officially lifted by a prophet of GOD named Spencer W. Kimball.  And that miracle did not come about because social or political conflicts in the land of the Free and the home of the brave in North America or because it was the sole will of that holy prophet.  For all prophets since Noah had wanted this blessing but only upon all worthy souls of the children of men despite of race or lineage, but these blessings have been either withheld because of iniquity or because the will of God came only when it was so. And It was so because so of a humble black man of the seed of Ham somewhere in Africa who gladly received the everlasting gospel of Jesus Christ in these latter days and who in good will prayed earnestly or sincerely claimed to have this blessing upon him and upon his people.  And it would have had occurred even earlier or since the day of Egyptus, the daughter  of Ham, son of Noha had the first pharaoh of their free will and choice claimed this blessing and privilege from the patriarchs for them and their descendants.  Of this it is written:

“Now the first government of Egypt was established by Pharaoh, the eldest son of Egyptus, the daughter of Ham, and it was after the manner of the government of Ham, which was patriarchal. Pharaoh, being a righteous man, established his kingdom and judged his people wisely and justly all his days, seeking earnestly to imitate that order established by the fathers in the first generations, in the days of the first patriarchal reign, even in the reign of Adam, and also of Noah, his father, who blessed him with the blessings of the earth, and with the blessings of wisdom, but cursed him as pertaining to the Priesthood. Now, Pharaoh being of that lineage by which he could not have the right of Priesthood, notwithstanding the Pharaohs would fain claim it from Noah, through Ham…”

 

(Pearl of Great Price | Abraham 1:25 - 27)

 

Now the Israelites and the Jews have been likewise cursed for or cast out and dispersed from the presence of God for the longest time for fighting against God and for rejecting Jesus Christ, the God and the holy one of Israel, but not forever.  And for this purpose and the great mercy of God, has the Book of Mormon been written, so that they know how to reconcile with our GOD. And not only need the Jews to be convinced and converted but the apostate gentiles do too.  And the only way the Jews can rebuild their temple is and their nation to their ancient glory is by accepting in their land the preaching of the new and everlasting covenant which is contained in its fullness in the book of Mormon.

That is how God makes himself manifest unto all nations.  This is how I got to hear and meet God face to face in the spirit, but not without the blessings of the temple.  Otherwise, I would not be able to withstand the glory of his presence and live to tell the tale.  And for this end was the book of Mormon written; yea, to prepare the way before the LORD and more particularly to convince my own people, the Lamanites, and also the gentiles and the Jews that Jesus is the Christ.  OF this it is written in an account made by the hand of an ancient prophet named Mormon who said the following concerning his record or the book of Mormon:

“Wherefore, it is an abridgment of the record of the people of Nephi, and also of the Lamanites—Written to the Lamanites, 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, and hid up unto the Lord, that they 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. An abridgment taken from the Book of Ether also, which is a record of the people of Jared, who were scattered at the time the Lord confounded the language of the people, when they were building a tower to get to heaven—Which is to show unto the remnant of the House of Israel what great things the Lord hath done for their fathers; and that they may know the covenants of the Lord, that they are not cast off forever—And also to the convincing of the Jew and Gentile that JESUS is the CHRIST, the ETERNAL GOD, manifesting himself unto all nations—And now, if there are faults they are the mistakes of men; wherefore, condemn not the things of God, that ye may be found spotless at the judgment–seat of Christ.

 

(Book of Mormon | Preface Title Page:1 - 2)

 

Therefore, If we exercise faith in Jesus Christ, the son of the living God,  for the gift of repentance; and if we ask him sincerely to make the truth known unto us by the power o f the holy ghost; and also to do anything for us in righteousness, such as building for us a temple in the old or in the new Jerusalem for the blessing of our people in Israel or in Zion. Or to ask him even to know where the ten lost tribes of Israel are, the Lord will grant it to us. In fact, he is expecting with attentive ears and eyes for us to ask him these particular blessings. So, if the way is so simple, all we have to do is to ponder about what we truly want and then ask for it to God in all righteousness.  For of this it is also many fold written and manifested in the holy writs saying:

If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering.  For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.

 

(New Testament | James 1:5 - 7)

 

And it came to pass after I, Nephi, having heard all the words of my father, concerning the things which he saw in a vision, and also the things which he spake by the power of the Holy Ghost, which power he received by faith on the Son of God—and the Son of God was the Messiah who should come—I, Nephi, was desirous also that I might see, and hear, and know of these things, by the power of the Holy Ghost, which is the gift of God unto all those who diligently seek him, as well in times of old as in the time that he should manifest himself unto the children of men. For he is the same yesterday, to-day, and forever; and the way is prepared for all men from the foundation of the world, if it so be that they repent and come unto him. For he that diligently seeketh shall find; and the mysteries of God shall be unfolded unto them, by the power of the Holy Ghost, as well in these times as in times of old, and as well in times of old as in times to come; wherefore, the course of the Lord is one eternal round.

 

(Book of Mormon | 1 Nephi 10:17 - 19)

 

And as I spake concerning the convincing of the Jews, that Jesus is the very Christ, it must needs be that the Gentiles be convinced also that Jesus is the Christ, the Eternal God; And that he manifesteth himself unto all those who believe in him, by the power of the Holy Ghost; yea, unto every nation, kindred, tongue, and people, working mighty miracles, signs, and wonders, among the children of men according to their faith.

 

(Book of Mormon | 2 Nephi 26:12 - 13)

 

For behold, I say unto you there be many things to come; and behold, there is one thing which is of more importance than they all—for behold, the time is not far distant that the Redeemer liveth and cometh among his people. Behold, I do not say that he will come among us at the time of his dwelling in his mortal tabernacle; for behold, the Spirit hath not said unto me that this should be the case.  Now as to this thing I do not know; but this much I do know, that the Lord God hath power to do all things which are according to his word. But behold, the Spirit hath said this much unto me, saying: Cry unto this people, saying—Repent ye, and prepare the way of the Lord, and walk in his paths, which are straight; for behold, the kingdom of heaven is at hand, and the Son of God cometh upon the face of the earth. And behold, he shall be born of Mary, at Jerusalem which is the land of our forefathers, she being a virgin, a precious and chosen vessel, who shall be overshadowed and conceive by the power of the Holy Ghost, and bring forth a son, yea, even the Son of God. And he shall go forth, suffering pains and afflictions and temptations of every kind; and this that the word might be fulfilled which saith he will take upon him the pains and the sicknesses of his people. And he will take upon him death, that he may loose the bands of death which bind his people; and he will take upon him their infirmities, that his bowels may be filled with mercy, according to the flesh, that he may know according to the flesh how to succor his people according to their infirmities.

 

Now the Spirit knoweth all things; nevertheless the Son of God suffereth according to the flesh that he might take upon him the sins of his people, that he might blot out their transgressions according to the power of his deliverance; and now behold, this is the testimony which is in me.

 

Now I say unto you that ye must repent, and be born again; for the Spirit saith if ye are not born again ye cannot inherit the kingdom of heaven; therefore come and be baptized unto repentance, that ye may be washed from your sins, that ye may have faith on the Lamb of God, who taketh away the sins of the world, who is mighty to save and to cleanse from all unrighteousness. Yea, I say unto you come and fear not, and lay aside every sin, which easily doth beset you, which doth bind you down to destruction, yea, come and go forth, and show unto your God that ye are willing to repent of your sins and enter into a covenant with him to keep his commandments, and witness it unto him this day by going into the waters of baptism. And whosoever doeth this, and keepeth the commandments of God from thenceforth, the same will remember that I say unto him, yea, he will remember that I have said unto him, he shall have eternal life, according to the testimony of the Holy Spirit, which testifieth in me. And now my beloved brethren, do you believe these things?

 

(Book of Mormon | Alma 7:7 - 17)

 

Behold, I would exhort you that when ye shall read these things, if it be wisdom in God that ye should read them, that ye would remember how merciful the Lord hath been unto the children of men, from the creation of Adam even down until the time that ye shall receive these things, and ponder it in your hearts. And when ye shall receive these things, I would exhort you that ye would ask God, the Eternal Father, in the name of Christ, if these things are not true; and if ye shall ask with a sincere heart, with real intent, having faith in Christ, he will manifest the truth of it unto you, by the power of the Holy Ghost. And by the power of the Holy Ghost ye may know the truth of all things. And whatsoever thing is good is just and true; wherefore, nothing that is good denieth the Christ, but acknowledgeth that he is. And ye may know that he is, by the power of the Holy Ghost; wherefore I would exhort you that ye deny not the power of God; for he worketh by power, according to the faith of the children of men, the same today and tomorrow, and forever. And again, I exhort you, my brethren, that ye deny not the gifts of God, for they are many; and they come from the same God.  And there are different ways that these gifts are administered; but it is the same God who worketh all in all; and they are given by the manifestations of the Spirit of God unto men, to profit them.

 

(Book of Mormon | Moroni 10:3 - 8)

 

I testify of the truth of all these things with every fiber which is in me because I know them of be true with absolute certainly or without a shadow of a doubt in my mind and in my heart.  And no man or devil can take this testimony away from me because I know of a surety for I have both heard and seen God. And by faith in this thing is inactive because I know them with perfect knowledge of God and not of man.  And it is by the power of God that I am granted to bear a testimony of his divinity and license to declare the truth as it was, as it is and as it is to come. Otherwise I could not move a finger to utter anything, for I am not a learned man and English is not my first language.  And God is my witness.

For verily this generation shall not all pass away until an house shall be built unto the Lord, and a cloud shall rest upon it, which cloud shall be even the glory of the Lord, which shall fill the house.

 

And the sons of Moses, according to the Holy Priesthood which he received under the hand of his father–in–law, Jethro; And Jethro received it under the hand of Caleb; And Caleb received it under the hand of Elihu; And Elihu under the hand of Jeremy; And Jeremy under the hand of Gad; And Gad under the hand of Esaias; And Esaias received it under the hand of God. Esaias also lived in the days of Abraham, and was blessed of him— Which Abraham received the priesthood from Melchizedek, who received it through the lineage of his fathers, even till Noah; And from Noah till Enoch, through the lineage of their fathers; And from Enoch to Abel, who was slain by the conspiracy of his brother, who received the priesthood by the commandments of God, by the hand of his father Adam, who was the first man— Which priesthood continueth in the church of God in all generations, and is without beginning of days or end of years.

 

And the Lord confirmed a priesthood also upon Aaron and his seed, throughout all their generations, which priesthood also continueth and abideth forever with the priesthood which is after the holiest order of God. And this greater priesthood administereth the gospel and holdeth the key of the mysteries of the kingdom, even the key of the knowledge of God.

 

Therefore, in the ordinances thereof, the power of godliness is manifest. And without the ordinances thereof, and the authority of the priesthood, the power of godliness is not manifest unto men in the flesh; For without this no man can see the face of God, even the Father, and live.

 

Now this Moses plainly taught to the children of Israel in the wilderness, and sought diligently to sanctify his people that they might behold the face of God; But they hardened their hearts and could not endure his presence; therefore, the Lord in his wrath, for his anger was kindled against them, swore that they should not enter into his rest while in the wilderness, which rest is the fulness of his glory. Therefore, he took Moses out of their midst, and the Holy Priesthood also; And the lesser priesthood continued, which priesthood holdeth the key of the ministering of angels and the preparatory gospel; Which gospel is the gospel of repentance and of baptism, and the remission of sins, and the law of carnal commandments, which the Lord in his wrath caused to continue with the house of Aaron among the children of Israel until John, whom God raised up, being filled with the Holy Ghost from his mother's womb. For he was baptized while he was yet in his childhood, and was ordained by the angel of God at the time he was eight days old unto this power, to overthrow the kingdom of the Jews, and to make straight the way of the Lord before the face of his people, to prepare them for the coming of the Lord, in whose hand is given all power.

 

(Doctrine and Covenants | Section 84:5 - 28)

 

And of this I solemnly testify for the benefit of your eternal souls as it is for mine, hoping that multitude of sins are erased and the right of mercy is granted by the power of our testimony anted unto us who strive forwards in the fear of God, and I do it in the Holy name of Jesus Christ Amen.

This is an unworthy servant in the hands of Christ.

The LORD executeth righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed. He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel. The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy. He will not always chide: neither will he keep his anger for ever. He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us according to our iniquities. For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward them that fear him. As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us. Like as a father pitieth his children, so the LORD pitieth them that fear him. For he knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we are dust. As for man, his days are as grass: as a flower of the field, so he flourisheth. For the wind passeth over it, and it is gone; and the place thereof shall know it no more. But the mercy of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear him, and his righteousness unto children's children; To such as keep his covenant, and to those that remember his commandments to do them. The LORD hath prepared his throne in the heavens; and his kingdom ruleth over all. Bless the LORD, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word. Bless ye the LORD, all ye his hosts; ye ministers of his, that do his pleasure. Bless the LORD, all his works in all places of his dominion: bless the LORD, O my soul.

      It is very interesting the way you have put your response, a Mormon Branch? With the help of the LORD who is in his temple, I will multiply your drop of water into a full stream of knowledge so that you know that the LORD is with us.

      Have you not heard that we are a BRANCH of the house of Israel or that the Jews and us, the Mormons or the seed of Joseph though Ephraim and Manasseh mingled with the seed of Sedekiah are pure blooded brethren who are meant to come together as one again like tie that binds. Here is the full answer of the LORD to you according to the seven eyes of the spirit of God who searches all the Holy Scriptures. If you can stand them you will be convinced. For of this it is written:

      Do ye not remember the things which the Lord hath said?—If ye will not harden your hearts, and ask me in faith, believing that ye shall receive, with diligence in keeping my commandments, surely these things shall be made known unto you.

      Behold, I say unto you, that the house of Israel was compared unto an olive-tree, by the Spirit of the Lord which was in our father; and behold are we not broken off from the house of Israel, and are we not a branch of the house of Israel?

      (Book of Mormon | 1 Nephi 15:11 - 12)

      Wherefore, Joseph truly saw our day. And he obtained a promise of the Lord, that out of the fruit of his loins the Lord God would raise up a righteous branch unto the house of Israel; not the Messiah, but a branch which was to be broken off, nevertheless, to be remembered in the covenants of the Lord that the Messiah should be made manifest unto them in the latter days, in the spirit of power, unto the bringing of them out of darkness unto light—yea, out of hidden darkness and out of captivity unto freedom.

      For Joseph truly testified, saying: A seer shall the Lord my God raise up, who shall be a choice seer unto the fruit of my loins. Yea, Joseph truly said: Thus saith the Lord unto me: A choice seer will I raise up out of the fruit of thy loins; and he shall be esteemed highly among the fruit of thy loins. And unto him will I give commandment that he shall do a work for the fruit of thy loins, his brethren, which shall be of great worth unto them, even to the bringing of them to the knowledge of the covenants which I have made with thy fathers. And I will give unto him a commandment that he shall do none other work, save the work which I shall command him. And I will make him great in mine eyes; for he shall do my work. And he shall be great like unto Moses, whom I have said I would raise up unto you, to deliver my people, O house of Israel. And Moses will I raise up, to deliver thy people out of the land of Egypt.

      But a seer will I raise up out of the fruit of thy loins; and unto him will I give power to bring forth my word unto the seed of thy loins—and not to the bringing forth my word only, saith the Lord, but to the convincing them of my word, which shall have already gone forth among them.

      Wherefore, the fruit of thy loins shall write; and the fruit of the loins of Judah shall write; and that which shall be written by the fruit of thy loins, and also that which shall be written by the fruit of the loins of Judah, shall grow together, unto the confounding of false doctrines and laying down of contentions, and establishing peace among the fruit of thy loins, and bringing them to the knowledge of their fathers in the latter days, and also to the knowledge of my covenants, saith the Lord.

      (Book of Mormon | 2 Nephi 3:5 - 12)

      Hear now, O Joshua the high priest, thou, and thy fellows that sit before thee: for they are men wondered at: for, behold, I will bring forth my servant the BRANCH. For behold the stone that I have laid before Joshua; upon one stone shall be seven eyes: behold, I will engrave the graving thereof, saith the LORD of hosts, and I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day.

      (Old Testament | Zechariah 3:8 - 9)

      Stem of Jesse (Christ) shall judge in righteousness—The knowledge of God shall cover the earth in the Millennium—The Lord shall raise an ensign and gather Israel—Compare 2 Nephi 21 and Doctrine and Covenants 77.

      AND there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his roots: And the spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD; And shall make him of quick understanding in the fear of the LORD: and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither reprove after the hearing of his ears: But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth: and he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked. And righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, and faithfulness the girdle of his reins.

      The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them. And the cow and the bear shall feed; their young ones shall lie down together: and the lion shall eat straw like the ox. And the sucking child shall play on the hole of the asp, and the weaned child shall put his hand on the cockatrice' den. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain: for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea.

      And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, which shall stand for an ensign of the people; to it shall the Gentiles seek: and his rest shall be glorious.

      And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall set his hand again the second time to recover the remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria, and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from Cush, and from Elam, and from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea.

      And he shall set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth. The envy also of Ephraim shall depart, and the adversaries of Judah shall be cut off: Ephraim shall not envy Judah, and Judah shall not vex Ephraim. But they shall fly upon the shoulders of the Philistines toward the west; they shall spoil them of the east together: they shall lay their hand upon Edom and Moab; and the children of Ammon shall obey them. And the LORD shall utterly destroy the tongue of the Egyptian sea; and with his mighty wind shall he shake his hand over the river, and shall smite it in the seven streams, and make men go over dryshod. And there shall be an highway for the remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria; like as it was to Israel in the day that he came up out of the land of Egypt.

      (Old Testament | Isaiah 11:Heading - 16)

      For in that day, for my sake shall the Father work a work, which shall be a great and a marvelous work among them; and there shall be among them those who will not believe it, although a man shall declare it unto them. But behold, the life of my servant shall be in my hand; therefore they shall not hurt him, although he shall be marred because of them. Yet I will heal him, for I will show unto them that my wisdom is greater than the cunning of the devil.

      Therefore it shall come to pass that whosoever will not believe in my words, who am Jesus Christ, which the Father shall cause him to bring forth unto the Gentiles, and shall give unto him power that he shall bring them forth unto the Gentiles, (it shall be done even as Moses said) they shall be cut off from among my people who are of the covenant. And my people who are a remnant of Jacob shall be among the Gentiles, yea, in the midst of them as a lion among the beasts of the forest, as a young lion among the flocks of sheep, who, if he go through both treadeth down and teareth in pieces, and none can deliver. Their hand shall be lifted up upon their adversaries, and all their enemies shall be cut off.

      Yea, wo be unto the Gentiles except they repent; for it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Father, that I will cut off thy horses out of the midst of thee, and I will destroy thy chariots; And I will cut off the cities of thy land, and throw down all thy strongholds; And I will cut off witchcrafts out of thy land, and thou shalt have no more soothsayers. Thy graven images I will also cut off, and thy standing images out of the midst of thee, and thou shalt no more worship the works of thy hands; And I will pluck up thy groves out of the midst of thee; so will I destroy thy cities. And it shall come to pass that all lyings, and deceivings, and envyings, and strifes, and priestcrafts, and whoredoms, shall be done away.

      For it shall come to pass, saith the Father, that at that day whosoever will not repent and come unto my Beloved Son, them will I cut off from among my people, O house of Israel; And I will execute vengeance and fury upon them, even as upon the heathen, such as they have not heard. But if they will repent and hearken unto my words, and harden not their hearts, I will establish my church among them, and they shall come in unto the covenant and be numbered among this the remnant of Jacob, unto whom I have given this land for their inheritance; And they shall assist my people, the remnant of Jacob, and also as many of the house of Israel as shall come, that they may build a city, which shall be called the New Jerusalem. And then shall they assist my people that they may be gathered in, who are scattered upon all the face of the land, in unto the New Jerusalem. And then shall the power of heaven come down among them; and I also will be in the midst.

      And then shall the work of the Father commence at that day, even when this gospel shall be preached among the remnant of this people. Verily I say unto you, at that day shall the work of the Father commence among all the dispersed of my people, yea, even the tribes which have been lost, which the Father hath led away out of Jerusalem. Yea, the work shall commence among all the dispersed of my people, with the Father to prepare the way whereby they may come unto me, that they may call on the Father in my name. Yea, and then shall the work commence, with the Father among all nations in preparing the way whereby his people may be gathered home to the land of their inheritance. And they shall go out from all nations; and they shall not go out in haste, nor go by flight, for I will go before them, saith the Father, and I will be their rearward.

      (Book of Mormon | 3 Nephi 21:9 - 29)

      The LORD is in his temple, let all the earth keep silence.

      As you have seen, the Lord has spoken.

      Attentively yours, with kindness from an unworthy servant in the hands of Christ.

        And it makes me wonder when people actually can't figure out that the religion wrapped around a volcano/fire GOD derived from it's polytheistic roots.

        Someone might actually want to read Psalms and understand it ;)

          That is not new knowledge to us, sir, because for this end was man born; yea, to live in celestial burnings as God does if we endure the gospel and the testimony of Jesus Christ valiantly. For it is written that we are all made in the image and likeness of GOD. Or as the prophet Joseph Smith once said: As man is once was God and as God is man may be. And this I why we preach the everlasting gospel so that all that may can obtain everlasting joy if they will just follow thru the discipline of Christ and endure in obedience to the end.

          Marvel not, for sooner or later it all will be known to the satisfaction of a few and to the damnation of many, for many are called but few are chosen. Of this it is plainly written and I write with a single eye for the honor Glory of God and not of man by the unspeakable gift of the Holy Ghost. The scriptures are meant to be understood by all, if only they will apply themselves or their heart to understand them with prayer, with fasting and supplication when we read them. For the LORD had spoken it saying:

          “Wo unto all those that discomfort my people, and drive, and murder, and testify against them, saith the Lord of Hosts; a generation of vipers shall not escape the damnation of hell. Behold, mine eyes see and know all their works, and I have in reserve a swift judgment in the season thereof, for them all; For there is a time appointed for every man, according as his works shall be. God shall give unto you knowledge by his Holy Spirit, yea, by the unspeakable gift of the Holy Ghost, that has not been revealed since the world was until now; Which our forefathers have awaited with anxious expectation to be revealed in the last times, which their minds were pointed to by the angels, as held in reserve for the fulness of their glory; A time to come in the which nothing shall be withheld, whether there be one God or many gods, they shall be manifest.

          All thrones and dominions, principalities and powers, shall be revealed and set forth upon all who have endured valiantly for the gospel of Jesus Christ. And also, if there be bounds set to the heavens or to the seas, or to the dry land, or to the sun, moon, or stars— All the times of their revolutions, all the appointed days, months, and years, and all the days of their days, months, and years, and all their glories, laws, and set times, shall be revealed in the days of the dispensation of the fulness of times— According to that which was ordained in the midst of the Council of the Eternal God of all other gods before this world was, that should be reserved unto the finishing and the end thereof, when every man shall enter into his eternal presence and into his immortal rest.

          How long can rolling waters remain impure? 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.

          Behold, there are many called, but few are chosen. And why are they not chosen?.....” you figure it out. By searching the rest of this revelation.

            Is that why your religion and GOD would require the Pantheist GOD to even exist? What is higher on the totem pole than Existence itself and its rules? You see, your GOD is easily disproved.. You can't create existence and it's rules.

            For it is written that we are all made in the image and likeness of GOD.

            Irrelevant because the reality is that we are made of energy, the essence of existence itself. Are you agreeing that existence itself is GOD? Well are you not in and of existence like everything else is? The image and likeness of GOD in reality terms would be us being emergent properties of existence itself, not some magic sky daddy.

            And you do understand that the Holy GHost / spirit is reference to the eternal flame. Hence a fire GOD.. It's called the everlasting fire, and if you paid any attention to the bible, that is reference to Yehweh / el shaddai to which is specifically described as a volcano..

            You seem to know very little about what you write or copy paste when it comes to the bible sir.

            Zion, January 3, 2012

            The Glory of God is intelligence or in other words light and truth.

            For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.

            I have already had my deadly encounters with you before my dear Coptic friend. I mean the spirit that teaches you lies. You are famous for of people like you it was written foretime with strong emphasis:

            For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.

            (New Testament | 2 Timothy 3:2 - 7)

            For your information, let me tell you that I write of the things that I know with absolute certainty and not hear say as you do with science and even religion issues. For as science has its particular language so does religion. And you are not at all acquainted with the language of heaven. This is why the Holy Scriptures are foolishness or confusion to you. And it is because your eyes are closes; and I am here to open them for your damnation unless you speedily repent for getting your nose without proper authority into business that are far from your understanding.

            With regards to your reply that says:

            “Is that why your religion and GOD would require the Pantheist GOD to even exist? What is higher on the totem pole than Existence itself and its rules? You see, your GOD is easily disproved.. You can't create existence and it's rules.

            For it is written that we are all made in the image and likeness of GOD.

            Irrelevant because the reality is that we are made of energy, the essence of existence itself. Are you agreeing that existence itself is GOD? Well are you not in and of existence like everything else is? The image and likeness of GOD in reality terms would be us being emergent properties of existence itself, not some magic sky daddy.

            And you do understand that the Holy GHost / spirit is reference to the eternal flame. Hence a fire GOD.. It's called the everlasting fire, and if you paid any attention to the bible, that is reference to Yehweh / el shaddai to which is specifically described as a volcano..

            You seem to know very little about what you write or copy paste when it comes to the bible sir.”

            I, Miguel, have this to say:

            You cannot back up your rhetoric by sound doctrine, I sense that science and faulty rationalism is robbing you from your light and I am here to try to make you aware of it if you are kind enough to listen or feel the truth of my words. Most of the things that you know have been written and rationalized by men of the world in search for truth. This is why it was also written of people like you with even more emphasis this:

            For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.

            (New Testament | 2 Timothy 4:3 - 4)

            Now know also that the knowledge that I impart has been inspired and written by men of GOD who knew and met with the truth. And there is a big difference in knowing about the truth and knowing the truth. And what is the truth? For your information, the truth is the knowledge of things as they are, as they have been and as they are to come. In other words, Jesus Christ is the truth, because he created all things as they are, as they were and as they are to come. And he knows every one of his creations including me and you in all the generations of time.

            Now, I have requested from my heavenly father a kind answer for you despite your insufferable blasphemies against the truth. But know this in advance that all blasphemies against the Father and the son will be forgiven, but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost will not be forgiven in this life or in the life to come. And I have come to give you by the power of the Holy Ghost in the name of Jesus Christ a final warning to stop speaking evil about the things of God as you have thus far done here and in some of your previous writings. You claim the tile of a Jackal, but you know not that behind that masquerade is the spirit of a filthy hyena if not a fire brand fox.

            But, concerning your reply, I write like that cutting and pasting only as a tool because the testimony of one man is not valid and I do not write for myself but in the name of GOD. This is why I back everything I say with the Holy Scriptures which are the testimony of the Holy Ghost. Now, my words per say may vanish away but the holy writ will forever remain. My purpose is to invite all to come unto Christ by way of expounding the scriptures or to shed more light on them by the spirit if truth which is in me for a purpose which wisdom remains with GOD . I am not a learned man at all and I am barely a scribe of the kingdom of heaven on earth and not a writer. But the notes I write and answers I give are binding upon every soul that reads them for they are inspired. And by them many will be judge at the last day. I have been sent to do this for better or worse if you can believe it. It matter not if you believe it or not. It would be nice, but it matters not for the truth is not a respecter of persons.

            Be aware also that I do not know much about the pagan or mythological gods that you mention in your responses to me. I see that the devil has a great hold of you. You have even taken upon you the cover of darkness or the spirit of death. This is why you are very popular among the dead. But let me assure you Your knowledge is based on hearsay or myth which is void of plausible statistical substantiation. I have no knowledge of the pagan gods you mention but of the true and living GOD who created heavens and earth and countless worlds like this who are inhabited and have ceased to exist for his works and words never end.

            And for you information, I do also have my own particular and intellectual studies in the quantum mechanics intricacies or about the operant forces of the universe, their emergence and their development. Because before I was born I helped to create it and perhaps you were there too. I know things that are beyond the understanding of most people with regards to the makeup of the universe. But you are playing with fire and I prophesy in the name of Christ that unless you speedily repent you will burn.

            Now, I also lack professional credentials; however, I have my own unpublished theories which conform with the fact of truth or the things as they are, as they have been and as they are to come. Unlike you, I do not only talk about science, but I practice it as much as I can. I have done the unthinkable since my early youth which is to put gravity to the test or on the lab and completed the unified field theory by discovering the missing links or the things that prevent the world from harmonizing the macro and the micro cosmos understanding that they have and make c complete sense out if it. Imagine what I will then accomplish when I go to school. All I lack is a firm understanding of the scientific language. But when the world is ready they will be published or by the power that is in that knowledge that emanates from GOD, yet without being published the scientist are already influenced. That is how the spirit of GOD influences us all towards the knowledge of truth.

            Now, If I were to talks about these things now, it would be like teaching a six year old child how to create an atomic bomb. Let it suffice it to say that my work is called Project GEL as for Gravitation, Electromagnetism and Light. It explains how the forces of the inverse emanate and operate and bring about the celestial spheres and everything in them.

            I admit and I must agree with you in one thing alone. And that is that the elements are eternal or that the essence of matter cannot be either created or destroyed. But the confusion in your mind and in the mind of a great many people is a simple and basic misconception concerning the precise meaning of the word creation or the words created out of the dust and so forth. Creation for the common perception is to create something out of nothing. You and I and science as we know it do agree that nothing comes from nothing and that there is nothing that is immaterial. Everything tangible is governed by laws and there are things less tangible against which there is no law such as the power of love. Spirit itself is operant matter or fire as you say, but only more refined and only the purer eyes can detect it or discern it.

            Now the word creation as I personally understand it is not to create something out of nothing as most people believe. I myself, a very religious man, do not believe in the theory of Creationism as we know it in the world. Much less I believe in the theory of latent or uniformitarian evolution. Science in itself is in the lowest sphere of knowledge and understanding for it must forcefully depend on statistical substantiation to confirm the certainty of any ordinary or extraordinary claims. There are more advanced spheres of understanding that defy the scientific method.

            For me the word creation means precisely to organize or to give form. It is merely to gather things and give form like when a carpenter gathers the needed materials or wood to create a house or a table. It is as simple as that. And change in the cosmos can take places suddenly or it can be decelerated as opposed to the current scientific dogma. And it can also be manipulated. All matter is composed or revolves around four fundamental states of reality where there is a combination of opposites that have both dependent and independent inherent associating properties. Pure spirit has only two properties of progressivity. And the purpose thereof is to attain two more to obtain exaltation. For a combination of matter and spirit brings about a fullness or everlasting joy. The trick is how to make the connection which knowledge remains until today in the bosom of the living GOD.

            You and I or our intelligences have always existed. That intelligence was organized and embodied in a spirit form by a greater intelligence and that form coated with a tabernacle of clay or of harsh matter as we are now. For your information Adam had an umbilical cord too. Life in this planet was placed here from stock parents during creation. ~60 Percent of what was originally written in the book of Genesis is missing or was taken from it due to iniquity. But that knowledge has been restored and it is called the book of Moses. And in there it is explained how the division of the seeds of Adam and Eve propagated. And the LORD has not yet revealed the physical creation of the world, but the spiritual only. But people for the most part lack the guidance of the spirit and misinterpret the scriptures. And this I say because of you unassertive conclusions with regards to creations. And the reason you do not want to believe the truth is because the abundance of sin in your life. And the truth hurts the wicked soul.

            Now, as I was saying before, some spirits lose properties and are fixed in eternity and others keep growing in mortality and beyond until perfection is fully granted or achieved and they live in celestial burnings. All this that I am telling you is old school knowledge. My ancient fathers Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and tare already resurrected beings and are no longer men or even angels of GOD like me but gods. They sit and rule upon their own thrones. This is how our father in heaven reached his exaltation and we can also attain it by the merits of his only begotten son, even Jesus Christ who paved the way before us all. Yet many are called and few are chosen. But the plan of salvation is already laid and it is available for all good willed souls to investigate. It is fun to but it requires faith, discipline, courage and endurance. To corroborate some of my words, here is the law and the testimony:

            And the Lord said unto me: Abraham, I show these things unto thee before ye go into Egypt, that ye may declare all these words. If two things exist, and there be one above the other, there shall be greater things above them; therefore Kolob is the greatest of all the Kokaubeam that thou hast seen, because it is nearest unto me. Now, if there be two things, one above the other, and the moon be above the earth, then it may be that a planet or a star may exist above it; and there is nothing that the Lord thy God shall take in his heart to do but what he will do it. Howbeit that he made the greater star; as, also, if there be two spirits, and one shall be more intelligent than the other, yet these two spirits, notwithstanding one is more intelligent than the other, have no beginning; they existed before, they shall have no end, they shall exist after, for they are gnolaum, or eternal. And the Lord said unto me: These two facts do exist, that there are two spirits, one being more intelligent than the other; there shall be another more intelligent than they; I am the Lord thy God, I am more intelligent than they all. The Lord thy God sent his angel to deliver thee from the hands of the priest of Elkenah. I dwell in the midst of them all; I now, therefore, have come down unto thee to declare unto thee the works which my hands have made, wherein my wisdom excelleth them all, for I rule in the heavens above, and in the earth beneath, in all wisdom and prudence, over all the intelligences thine eyes have seen from the beginning; I came down in the beginning in the midst of all the intelligences thou hast seen.

            Now the Lord had shown unto me, Abraham, the intelligences that were organized before the world was; and among all these there were many of the noble and great ones; And God saw these souls that they were good, and he stood in the midst of them, and he said: These I will make my rulers; for he stood among those that were spirits, and he saw that they were good; and he said unto me: Abraham, thou art one of them; thou wast chosen before thou wast born. And there stood one among them that was like unto God, and he said unto those who were with him: We will go down, for there is space there, and we will take of these materials, and we will make an earth whereon these may dwell; And we will prove them herewith, to see if they will do all things whatsoever the Lord their God shall command them; And they who keep their first estate shall be added upon; and they who keep not their first estate shall not have glory in the same kingdom with those who keep their first estate; and they who keep their second estate shall have glory added upon their heads for ever and ever. And the Lord said: Whom shall I send? And one answered like unto the Son of Man: Here am I, send me. And another answered and said: Here am I, send me. And the Lord said: I will send the first. And the second was angry, and kept not his first estate; and, at that day, many followed after him.

            (Pearl of Great Price | Abraham 3:15 - 28)

            …and he abode in my law; as Isaac also and Jacob did none other things than that which they were commanded; and because they did none other things than that which they were commanded, they have entered into their exaltation, according to the promises, and sit upon thrones, and are not angels but are gods.

            (Doctrine and Covenants | Section 132:37)

            And it came to pass that Moses called upon God, saying: Tell me, I pray thee, why these things are so, and by what thou madest them? 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. And by the word of my power, have I created them, which is mine Only Begotten Son, who is full of grace and truth. And worlds without number have I created; and I also created them for mine own purpose; and by the Son I created them, which is mine Only Begotten. And the first man of all men have I called Adam, which is many. But only an account of this earth, and the inhabitants thereof, give I unto you. For behold, there are many worlds that have passed away by the word of my power. And there are many that now stand, and innumerable are they unto man; but all things are numbered unto me, for they are mine and I know them.

            (Pearl of Great Price | Moses 1:30 - 35)

            Now, you can read the whole cannot of scriptures here http://lds.org/scriptures?lang=eng However, I strongly suggest that you begin by bending the knee and praying to God the Eternal Father for guidance in the name of his son Jesus Christ. If you begin to exercise faith in Christ with real intent, the spirit of truth will guide you to search your soul and repent of your sins and to go to the waters of baptism to be cleansed in the church of Jesus Christ of Latter day saints. Only then you will receive the gift of the Holy Ghost which cannot dwell in impure temples. And that spirit, is going to put you on trial and upon obedience to the laws and commandments of GOD he will guide you into all truth and to the kingdom of heaven so you also can have an indelible testimony in your heart of the knowledge of God like we do. For no carnal man is in enmity with God and the sinful man mind ever knew GOD for the things of God are foolishness to the gentiles or those who seek after signs.

            For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect. For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe. For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom: But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness; But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God. Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

            (New Testament | 1 Corinthians 1:17 - 25)

            Now these things I write for the honor and glory of God and for the mutual intellectual benefit of you and I upon repentance and obedience to the commandments of GOD and those who will feast upon these words for our eternal joy in the kingdom of God at the last day. Therefore peace be unto you and if it is not wanted, let it promptly return unto me. And I do it solemnly in the name of Jesus Christ Amen,

            Attentively an unworthy servant in the hands of Christ

            Miguel Angel Tinoco Rodriguez

            Ye were also in the beginning with the Father; that which is Spirit, even the Spirit of truth; And truth is knowledge of things as they are, and as they were, and as they are to come; And whatsoever is more or less than this is the spirit of that wicked one who was a liar from the beginning. The Spirit of truth is of God. I am the Spirit of truth, and John bore record of me, saying: He received a fulness of truth, yea, even of all truth; And no man receiveth a fulness unless he keepeth his commandments. He that keepeth his commandments receiveth truth and light, until he is glorified in truth and knoweth all things.

            Man was also in the beginning with God. Intelligence, or the light of truth, was not created or made, neither indeed can be. All truth is independent in that sphere in which God has placed it, to act for itself, as all intelligence also; otherwise there is no existence. Behold, here is the agency of man, and here is the condemnation of man; because that which was from the beginning is plainly manifest unto them, and they receive not the light. And every man whose spirit receiveth not the light is under condemnation. For man is spirit. The elements are eternal, and spirit and element, inseparably connected, receive a fulness of joy; And when separated, man cannot receive a fulness of joy.

            The elements are the tabernacle of God; yea, man is the tabernacle of God, even temples; and whatsoever temple is defiled, God shall destroy that temple. The glory of God is intelligence, or, in other words, light and truth. 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.
