THE HANDWRITING OF MOTHER EVE - AND THE GATHERING OF THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL

To me, besides forgiveness of sin and the Resurrection from the dead, there is one doctrine that stands out as just sublime and that rocks me to the core every time I think of it.  

It is that the entire work of God will be wrapped up in one great work during the Millennium and the entire family of man will be welded together into one great chain (other than those who have chosen to de-select themselves by their overt actions).  God will save as many as will allow themselves to be saved via ordinances for those who had the privilege to have it done for themselves and then those who are saved via proxy ordinances of baptism, GotHG, Endowments and Sealings to their respective families and spouses.

If there is anything more grand and noble and reassuring of God's love for me and all of His children on this earth, it is that.  God truly cared enough for us wretches to put this plan into action and then execute it.  If we choose Life Eternal, we have nothing to fear on the stormy seas of life.  There are many who have departed and loosened their grip on the Iron Rod.  For those who had a perfect knowledge, they must pay to the utmost farthing unless they repent and call mightily on the Lord for deliverance.  For others, whose seeds fell on stony ground, there will be mercy and love.  In the end, always love.  But God will never force a man nor a woman into heaven.

In short, all of the genealogy must be completed for every inhabitant of the earth, and then the great temple work wrapped up and presented to the Father by the Son - while an amazing work is going on over on the other side of the veil; of teaching and preparing that people for acceptance of the Gospel and the vicarious ordinances done on their behalf.

While in the pool at the Ramada in St. George, the SIL of Iohanni Wolfgramm related the following to me and I have permission to share:

Iohanni worked as a maintenance carpenter in the Church Office building during the day.  One day, after he had been praying and fasting over the course of a few weeks over a gap in the oral history he needed to complete the transcription of oral history of his Tongan lines, he was in the elevator and at one floor a woman entered the elevator.  She introduced herself as mother Eve and handed Iohanni a piece of paper and said that he had been seeking this information.  They got to a floor where you could go left, but it was a dead end, and the way to the offices was to the right.  She went left, he went right.  When he turned to ask her a question, she had faded into nothing.

With the contents of that paper, Iohanni was able to fill the gap in the oral history and submit a record all the way from his royal line back to Adam and, of course, Eve.  In doing so, he was making very broad claims about having gotten his lines all the way back through Mulek to our First Parents.  This raised eyebrows and he was called in to explain his statements.  He brought his genealogy which he kept on rolls of wall paper (because they could be unrolled as a linear scroll and had enough length to contain all of the generations he had been given).  After explaining it all, he was told to please carry on with his amazing work.

One of my action items is to get a copy of this paper that Eve handed to Iohanni.  The SIL described the writing as lovely.  Pefect in every way.  I am sure it was like my mother's exquisite hand-writing.  

When it comes to one of the lines of the Mother of All Living, even Eve is not above stepping in.  After all, this record will be presented to her husband here shortly - and then it will be presented to Jesus.  At the end of the Millennium, it will be presented to the Father as a completed record.  I know this is true and perfect doctrine.  Those who fight against this mandate will be swept off the face of the earth.  Those who do not turn their tents to face the temple will not partake in the greatest blessings that the Lord has to offer.

A truly amazing story that fills me with confidence in the work we are all engaged in.
