THE DAY OF GRACE IS PAST OR NEARLY PAST

Sad to read this and realize it applies to your once great people and nation.  The sifting will occur and those who are found positive in the balance will come out okay.  Those who are not, will suffer;

 16 For behold, the Spirit of the Lord hath already ceased to strive with their (Lamanite) fathers; and they are without Christ and God in the world; and they are driven about as chaff before the wind.

 17 They were once a delightsome people, and they had Christ for their shepherd; yea, they were led even by God the Father.

 18 But now, behold, they are led about by Satan, even as chaff is driven before the wind, or as a vessel is tossed about upon the waves, without sail or anchor, or without anything wherewith to steer her; and even as she is, so are they.

 19 And behold, the Lord hath reserved their blessings, which they might have received in the land, for the Gentiles who shall possess the land.

 20 But behold, it shall come to pass that they shall be driven and scattered by the Gentiles; and after they have been driven and scattered by the Gentiles, behold, then will the Lord remember the covenant which he made unto Abraham and unto all the house of Israel.

 21 And also the Lord will remember the prayers of the righteous, which have been put up unto him for them.

 22 And then, O ye Gentiles, how can ye stand before the power of God, except ye shall repent and turn from your evil ways?

 23 Know ye not that ye are in the hands of God? Know ye not that he hath all power, and at his great command the earth shall be rolled together as a scroll?

 24 Therefore, repent ye, and humble yourselves before him, lest he shall come out in justice against you—lest a remnant of the seed of Jacob shall go forth among you as a lion, and tear you in pieces, and there is none to deliver.
