Re: A Buffer between the past several memos and the next~
The last four or five memos have given some explanation from the scriptures concerning how the earths current geography has been arrived at. The next two memos are going to be so much more graphic, so much more violent, so filled with destruction, as the final battle of God vs Satan rages to an end, that perhaps you would rather not read them. If such is the case just drop them in the waste basket unopened until you receive memo #55. However, our Heavenly Father has given this information to the prophets and commanded them to write it down that it might be read that all who will receive the word will be prepared for the glorious millennium which has just started, the millennium, not the glory that comes with the Savior and soon.
To understand the events taking place currently on the earth and more horrific ones to come, climaxing with the appearance of Christ, we need to answer a few questions.
1. How many choices does every person have as to whom they will follow in this mortal life? Answer: Two and two only. Either follow Christ or by default one follows Satan. There are no other choices. Let me repeat, one MUST CHOOSE to follow Christ, otherwise he automatically follows the devil whose sole goal is to have us eternally miserable as he is.
The goal Jesus Christ has for us is to become like him and be eternally happy. He has paid a terrible price to make this possible and in order to guide us he has given us a few commandments which he summed up in just one.
“Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, might, mind and strength and the second is like unto it, thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.”
To love oneself, then, must be a reality in loving others. All love flows from God only hate comes from Lucifer.
(Note: to my single granddaughters, when you think you have found the “right one,” if his feelings toward God are indifferent, if he seems to be self centered, if he speaks disrespectfully of others and especially of his family, do not marry him for he has not the capacity to love. Paul’s instructions to husbands are: “Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it.” Eph. 5:25 Such a man, and such a man only can give you the love you are looking for.)
God created this earth for one purpose: “To bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man.”The earth is a living thing it too was created first as spirit and secondly as temporal. The temporal must end as all such of that order must do. It shall be cleansed and it will be a new earth and even the heavens will be new and it is at this time that the Saviors words will be fulfilled, “Blessed are the meek for they shall inherit the earth,” to live on it eternally with him. In other words it will be the heaven that the spiritually sick and dead talk about, but for the most part don’t believe, and wont inherit. The meek will inherit all that the Father has to give. On this glorified world they will be as he is and will do as he does.
Those who have not obeyed the “love” commandment will spend eternity on some other globe, prepared, to provide them with all that they are willing to receive.
Our Father in Heaven loves each one of us and is determined to save each no matter how
hard they resist his saving grace even if he has to remove them from this earth by violent means to get them out of Satan's grasp.
When the judgement is finished at the end of this millennium, our Father through his Son Jesus, will have saved every sole in some kind of heaven for it says every head will bow and every knee will bend to him who made it all possible, but even then a few will persist in their foolish, stubborn ways and will defect over to Satan thereby becoming Sons of Perdition. And will be cast out with him and his hosts to be miserable forever. Their place of residence eternally has such descriptive names as, “outer darkness” (remember God is the source of all light) also called Hell and Hades. (None of you will meet this terrible fate.) Hell is likened to a lake of fire and brimstone. Those who end up there will weep, wail, and gnash their teeth. (Note: brimstone is sulphur, we used to buy it in drugstores to fumigate our houses. Strike a mathch to it and it burns readily with a bluish intense heat, difficult to extinguish. In the early days of orchards some 75 years ago we sparyed the fruit trees with lime and sulphur. We could only do it in early spring while the trees were still dormant for it would burn the foliage up and by the end of the day you were on fire even tho we liberally covered exposed skin with vaseline. And those who did not take proper percautions would often have the flesh eaten away so that the white bone showed.) So the comparison accurately portrays the eternal unhappiness of the dammed souls.
Alma cried out, and I feel the same way: “O that I were an angel, and could have the wish of mine heart, that I might go forth and speak with the trump of God, with a voice to shake the earth, and cry repentance unto every people. Yea, I would declare unto every soul, as with the voice of thunder, repentance and the plan of redemption, that they should repent and come unto our God that there might not be more sorrow upon all the face of the earth.” Alma 29:1-2
Yes the gospel of love is the only answer, for the highest heaven or Celestial will need no police, armies etc for each citizen there will be Self Governing ~ they will love their neighbor as their self and they will love God. They will dwell in family units and will expand eternally.
The lower heavens of Terrestrial, and Telestial will be somewhat like a baby’s playpen and they will be confined to their areas by the element that their ressurrected body is adapted to live in and worlds without end they can not change it. They will have a degree of happiness and will progress and rejoice forever so a loving Father and Son will finally bring every soul safely home to some kind of eternal peace and joy. But one of their big regrets is they will have no companion, no children.
As I said in the beginning if you do not want to know of the terrible judgements that have already started and will reach a peak and that very soon just put the next 4 memos in the waste basket unopened.
But I must say that they are some of the greatest signs we have of the closeness of his coming, and your faith to survive will increase as you watch the unfolding of the prophets in great detail concerning that which will cleanse all filth from the earth. You will literrally witness selective destruction as the wickend perish and the faithful survive. We live in exciting times.
Be prepared and not afraid.
