THE MELDING OF EVIL AND GOOD - A RANT ON HALLOWEEN

I just got done watching the latest Lindsey Sterling youtube and it has another dark theme; dracula.

I am going to offend a lot of people here, especially the females and will come off as an old fuddy-duddy to many. Of course, I do not care. When you don't care what others think of you and what you do, it is extremely liberating. The women's libbers and many others in parallel "liberation" movements ought to try it sometime. Many who try and deviate outside these "movements" are stifled by the others who demand rigid conformance to their stated goals and objectives - and it just kills me as I LOL..... and mock them for their utter stupidity and nonsensical natures.

When it comes to Hallowed Eve'ning, I am staunchly against it. I think people cruising around the halls of worship in witch attire and other costumes imitating or even glorifying anything that is evil or macabre - is JUST WRONG. I am embarrassed when a visitor who has never set foot in one of our buildings comes rolling in as an invitee to a Halloween party and is greeted by 3 out of 4 women dressed up as witches and the complementary husband as Hogworts or some other practitioner of magic. Yep - Stephanie Meyers is our prophetess and we adore that kind of thing as LDS....... Come let us adore it....... Bleche!!

Don't get me wrong - I am taking my two littlest kids to be a part of that socially progressive evening (in costumes that are innocuous, such as an Indian costume or a Cowboy costume), to beg for candy at stranger's homes and then threaten them with malfeasance if they do not pay up. We will stop short of lighting the brown paper sack full of dog poop on fire on the front step - but you get the picture. We have the most evil of ghouls in the White House doing some of the same to us via his buddies, the IRS..... And make no mistake about it, it is pay up; or they can harrass you and then legally "burn your financial house down".......

Maybe I was just exposed to too much of that "soft evil" down in Brazil that ended up with so many people possessed and in dire spiritual states that I have no stomach for it. Maybe I take the O.T. injunction against that kind of thing a little too seriously. Maybe I think the Lord, when he spoke of the penalties for entertaining that kind of garbage, as being death - that I thought He was making a point about how He felt about the trash. Maybe, just maybe, its part of what is wrong in the Church today?? Part of the reason there will be a cleansing. If you want to celebrate death and the macabre, you might just get a healthy dose as it talks about in D&C 29, Section 45 and what Spencer, Menet and many others have spoken of.

For me? No thanks! Picture for a moment, what it will be like in Heaven. Clean, pure, absence of filth and darkness.

Then watch this - and then you will get my point:

You are so incredibly brilliant and so naive at the same time. A lot to learn, but you will get there.

I'm not sure what she is suppose to be good or bad? She is promoting Dracula, so is this bad?

What more words can be said that have not already been said by you in this post? Mr. Anon....It would be nice if you could elaborate on your thoughts. I see nothing naive about this post, and I do not understand why you think it is bad that the poster doesn't like dark and evil things. I for one do not like to celebrate dark things on any moment of any day of any week of any month of any year either. I can't stand Halloween because of the dark and evil that surrounds it. I agree with the post! But, each to his own opinion. What was in this video will not be found anywhere in the Celestial Kingdom of God nor any kingdom of heaven for that matter. All of this.....nothing but worldly and the big and spacious building. Others may disagree...but, that is how I feel about the matter. I may be alone in my opinion....But, I don't care about that. Some may think me naive....I don't care about that either. I only care about pleasing my Father in Heaven and being in a position where I can hopefully have the Spirit to be with me at all times.

WHY SHOULD WE STUDY THE HIDDEN THINGS RELATED TO THE SECOND COMING OF CHRIST?

But the Latter-day Saints are not in darkness; they are the children of light, although many of us will actually be asleep. We shall have to wake up and trim up our lamps, or we shall not be prepared to enter in; for we shall all slumber and sleep in that day, and some will have gone to sleep from which they will not awake until they awake up in darkness without any oil in their lamps. But, as a general thing, the Saints will understand the signs of the times. Others have their eyes closed upon the prophecies of the ancient Prophets; and not only that, but they are void of the spirit of prophecy themselves. When a man has this, though he may appeal to ancient Prophets to get understanding on some subjects he does not clearly understand, yet, as he has the spirit of prophecy in himself, he will not be in darkness; he will have a knowledge of the signs of the times; he will have a knowledge of the house of Israel, and of Zion, of the ten tribes and of many things and purposes and events that are to take place on the earth; and he will see coming events, and can say such an event will take place, and after that another, and then another; and after that the trumpet shall sound, and after that certain things will take place, and then another trump shall sound, &c., &c.; and he will have his eye fixed on the signs of the times, and that day will not overtake him unawares.

JD, O PRATT 7:190

JOSEPH SMITH SAID THOSE WHO ARE WATCHING AND WAITING, WILL KNOW THE HOUR:

"Christ says no man knoweth the day or the hour when the Son of Man cometh. This is a sweeping argument for sectarianism against Latter day ism. Did Christ speak this as a general principle throughout all generations Oh no he spoke in the present tense no man that was then liveing upon the footstool of God knew the day or the hour But he did not say that there was no man throughout all generations that should not know the day or the hour. No for this would be in flat contradiction with other scripture for the prophet says that God will do nothing but what he will reveal unto his Servants the prophets consequently if it is not made known to the Prophets it will not come to pass; again we find Paul 1st of Thesslonians 5th Chapter expressly points out the characters who shall not know the day nor the hour when the Son of Man cometh for says he it will come upon them as the theif or unawares. Who are they they are the children of darkness or night. But to the Saints he says yea are not of the night nor of darkness of that that day should come upon you unawares. John the revelator says 14 chap 7th verse that the hour of his judgements is come they are precursers or forerunners of the comeing of Christ. read Matthew 24 Chap and all the Prophets. He says then shall they see the Sign of the comeing of the Son of Man in the clouds of Heaven. How are we to see it Ans. As the lighting up of the morning or the dawning of the morning cometh from the east and shineth unto the west—So also is the comeing of the Son of Man. The dawning of the morning makes its appearance in the east and moves along gradualy so also will the comeing of the Son of Man be. it will be small at its first appearance and gradually becomes larger untill every eye shall see it. Shall the Saints understand it Oh yes. Paul says so. Shall the wicked understand Oh no they attribute it to a natural cause. They will probably suppose it is two great comets comeing in contact with each other It will be small at first and will grow larger and larger untill it will be all in a blaze so that every eye shall see it." (Joseph Smith, General Conference, April 6, 1843
