SECOND COMING QUOTES AND PROPHECIES

I THOUGHT THIS WAS AN INTERESTING COLLECTION:

Disclaimer: Most prophecies concerning the judgments of God’s children are conditional upon performance of contracts, implied or expressed. There is usually an if and a repent portion of the collection clause of the contract.
Prophecies that appear to have been, or that appear to be in process of being, fulfilled are differentiated by italicized font.

CHURCH HEADQUARTERS AND THE ROCKY MOUNTAINS
1) The headquarters of the church will not always be located in the top of the mountains. The center stake will be located in Jackson County, Missouri. Discourses of Brigham Young, pg 74.
2) Jackson County, Missouri is the location of the Garden of Eden. Wilford Woodruff, pg 481.
3) The Lord will come to his temple at Zion in Jackson County. D&C Commentary, pg 196.
4) “An army of Elders will be sent to the four quarters of the earth to search out the righteous and warn the wicked of what is coming. All kinds of religions will be started and miracles performed that will deceive the very elect if that were possible. Our sons and daughters must live so as to be prepared for what is coming.
After a while the Gentiles will gather by the thousands to this place, and Salt Lake City will be classed among the wicked cities of the world. A spirit of speculation and extravagance will take possession of the Saints, and the results will be financial bondage.
Persecution comes next and all true Latter-Day Saints will be tested to the limit. Many will apostatize and others will be still not knowing what to do. The judgments of God will be poured out upon the wicked to the extent that our Elders far and near will be called home, or in other words, the gospel will be taken from the Gentiles and later carried on to the Jews.
The western boundary of the State of Missouri will be swept so clean of its inhabitants that, as President Young tells it, when you return to that place, there will not be so much as a yellow dog left to wag his tail. Before that day comes, however, the Saints will be put to the tests that will try the integrity of the best of them. The pressures will become so great that the more righteous among them will cry unto the Lord day and night until deliverance comes.
Then the Prophet (Joseph Smith) and others will make their appearance and those who have remained faithful will be selected to return to Jackson County, Missouri and take part in the upbuilding of that beautiful city, the New Jerusalem.” Deseret News, May 23, 1931

PROPHECY CONCERNING PALESTINE
1) “.....the Lord has decreed that the Jews should be gathered from all the Gentile nations where they have been driven, into their own land, in fulfillment of the words of Moses, their law-giver. And this is the will of your great Elohim, O house of Judah, and when ever you shall ever be called upon to perform this work, the God of Israel will help you. You have a great future and destiny before you and you cannot avoid fulfilling it; you are the royal and chosen seed, and the God of your Father’s house has kept you distinct as a nation for eighteen hundred years, under all the oppression of all the Gentile world. You may not wait until you believe on Jesus of Nazareth, but when you meet with Shiloh your king, you will know him; your destiny is marked and you cannot avoid it. It is true that after you return and gather your nation home, and rebuild your city and temple, that the Gentiles may gather together their armies to go against you to battle, to take you a prey and to take you as a spoil, which they will do, for the words of your prophets must be fulfilled; but when this affliction comes, the living God that led Moses through the wilderness, will deliver you , and your Shiloh will come and stand in your midst and fight your battles; and you will know Him, and the afflictions of the Jews will be at an end, while the destruction of the Gentiles will be so great that it will take the whole house of Israel who are gathered about Jerusalem, seven months to bury the dead of their enemies, and the weapons of war will last them seven years for fuel, so that they need not go to any forest for wood. These are tremendous sayings -- who can bear them? Nevertheless, they are true and will be fulfilled according to the sayings of Ezekial, Zechariah, and the prophets. Though the heavens and earth shall pass away, not one jot or tittle will fall unfulfilled.” Wilford Woodruff pg 509-510
