Here is a witness that would refute that concept:
I was deep in prayer on the drive to work a few months ago. I was thinking on the mark of the beast and the coming cashless movement. The Holy Ghost spoke to me, advising that I would have to leave my job in order to avoid the cashless economy and that that was important to insure I could avoid the mark of the beast. In other words, the cashless economy would push me to establish the means to provide for myself so that I would not be so weak as to give into the mark of the beast.
I saw my family living in a tent with a wood stove. I had some kind of a trade. I could tell that I made things to sell in order to bring in money. I saw the police coming periodically to move us because they didn't want us there. I eventually saw us gather into a community that wasn't strictly Mormon and we worked together to provide for ourselves.
To answer your question I did not see anything that made me believe that I was a part of a church movement in the beginning.
On a side note:
A sister in our ward was visiting the temple. She was considering going back to school. In the celestial room she got a no to the idea of going back to school. Instead, she felt that she and her family should do more camping and getting prepared.
Then, when she moved to leave the celestial room the temple work stopped her and said she "impressed to tell her something". She explained that as a group the temple works pray, and recently they have felt that the time to prepare for the gathering was close. The temple worker also told her that the church's gathering place for Colorado is in Colorado Springs.
They would have to go to the mountains north and west of Colorado Springs. South of there is Fort Carson, and SW of there is NORAD. Manitou Springs might be their best bet, and points north and west.
ReplyDeleteThere will be gathering places all over the world. In my region of Mexico the area is undoubtedly La Guarda. In Utah there are a bunch of "girls camps". There are many other places too.
