This just makes me sick to read this, for I know how much evil is perpetrated under this guise. The Book of Mormon teaches that these things exist, and that we need to be in a state of mourning when these things become general amongst us.
I would guess that we (if our course is not radically altered by intervention), can expect to see this openly being done within a generation. Oaths made against the moon and stars (dark things, compared to the light of day) and out to the seventh generation (think of Cain - the father of all dark combinations)....... Makes me nauseous - just reading it.
May the Lord wipe this from the face of the earth, that we may enjoy 1,000 years, free from the clutches of evil.

THE SIN OF SODOM - NOT WHAT YOU THINK
The greatest law within God's kingdom (other than to love Him), is to take care of our brother in need. When we fail to do the very basics of Consecration, we fall under judgement of the same kind that affected those in Abraham's day. We rejected the higher (Terrestrial Law) long ago and now, generally speaking, find ourselves wrapt in Babylon and cloaked in the most grievous form of materialism that exists. For this sin, most of what we have will be taken from us in the trials that come amongst us.
Sexual sin which flies in the face of the first commandment given in the Garden of Eden, is serious, to be sure. But, this sin of not caring for the least in the Kingdom and being obsessed with materialism, is far greater.

Nibley says:
Approaching Zion p. 184: As Paul also reminds us, it was when the people of Sodom and Gomorrah denied passing strangers and even the birds of heaven their share of the fruit on the trees that Abraham cursed them in the name of his God; according to the Midrash, their sexual aberrations were second in wickedness to such meanness of spirit.
Approaching Zion p. 220: We are told that the people of Sodom and Gomorrah put nets over their trees to deny the birds their lunch and Abraham, seeing it, cursed them in the name of his God."
Approaching Zion p. 322-323 They trusted in the multitude of their wealth. . . . Wealth thrusts aside its owners from the fear of Heaven. . . They [even] fenced in all their trees on top above their fruit so that they should not be seized; [not] even by the bird of heaven. . . . They plundered each others' goods. . . . If a man was killed working on the tower, he was ignored. But if a brick fell they sat down and wept.

US TROOPS BEING DEPLOYED TO "SUPPORT UKRAINE"

FERGUSEN IS SMOLDERING
I awoke to this on the news. We got a late start and got detained at the border by an overzealous border guard who refused to listen to me as I explained our situation in the middle of the night. I heard the news on the radio as I waited for the day shift. When he came in and asked why we had moved to Canada, my response was that we had prayed about it and were told to do it.
In the course of our conversation, I told him that something big was about to happen to the US soon. He pretty much waived us on through. Never establish eye contact with a crazy man...... You can always get out of a situation by playing the crazy. Clinger (from MASH) was my model.
Anyway, we got the race rioting we need for the beginning of the collapse. Let it begin.... Please, let's just get on with it. I love stability - and I realize that what is coming will erase life as we know it - but I crave the "other side" of the badness more than I crave continuing with the current madness.
Here is the list of articles that got me spun up:

WASHINGTON'S NEW ENEMY
Tyranny at it's finest - go along to get along...... Sounds like my MIL. Arghhhh
The founding fathers would just cringe at what our nation has become:
The founding fathers would just cringe at what our nation has become:
Hungary’s Viktor Orban: Washington’s New Enemy Image
Hungary and its populist nationalist Prime Minister Viktor Orban have come into the cross-hairs of Washington’s political elites. His sin? Not buckling under to the often destructive diktats of the Brussels EU Commission; attempting to define a Hungarian national identity. But his cardinal sin is his deepening relationship with Russia and his defiance of Washington in signing an agreement with Gazprom for bringing the Russian South Stream gas pipeline into the EU via Hungary.
Orban has himself undergone a political journey since he was elected as Hungary’s second-youngest Prime Ministers in 1998. Back then he oversaw the entry of Hungary along with Poland and the Czech Republic into NATO over Russia’s protest, and into the EU. As Prime Minister during far more prosperous economic times in the EU, Orban cut taxes, abolished university tuition for qualified students, expanded maternity benefits, and attracted German industry with low-cost Hungarian labor. One of his American “advisers” then was James Denton, linked with the Color Revolution Washington NGO, Freedom House. Orban seemed the darling of Washington’s neo-cons. In 2001 he was given the neoconservative American Enterprise Institute’s Freedom Award.
But in 2010 after six years in the opposition, Orban returned, this time with a resounding majority for his Fidesz-Hungarian Civic Union Party, Fidesz for short. In fact Fidesz won a 68% supermajority in Parliament, giving it the necessary votes to alter the Constitution and pass new laws, which it did. Ironically, in a case of the pot calling the kettle black, the United States Obama Administration and the European Parliament for placing too much power in the hands of Fidesz. Orban was accused by Daniel Cohn-Bendit of the European Greens of making Hungary on the model of Venezuela’s Hugo Chavez. He was definitely not playing by the approved Brussels Rulebook for politically submissive EU politicians. Fidesz began to be demonized in EU media as the Hungarian version of United Russia and Orban as the Hungarian Putin. That was in 2012.
Now its getting alarming for the Atlanticists and their EU followers. Orban has defied EU demands to stop construction of Russia’s important South Stream gas pipeline.
Russia’s South Stream gas pipeline would guarantee EU gas together with German-Russian Nord Stream that could bypass the war in Ukraine something Washington bitterly opposes for obvious reasons
Last January Orban’s government announced a € 10 billion deal with the Russian state nuclear energy company to refurbish Hungary’s only nuclear power plant at Paks, originally built during the Soviet era with Russian technology.
That caused some attention in Washington. Similarly when Orban criticized the United States this past summer for failing to ultimately resolve the global financial crisis its banks and its lax regulation caused, and praised China, Turkey and Russia as better models. He declared in words not too different from what I have often used that Western democracies, “will probably be incapable of maintaining their global competitiveness in the upcoming decades and will instead be scaled down unless they are capable of changing themselves significantly.” In addition, Orban’s government managed to free Hungary from decades of devastating IMF bondage. In August 2013, the Hungarian Economic Ministry announced that it had, thanks to a “disciplined budget policy,” repaid the remaining €2.2 billion owed to the IMF. No more onerous IMF-forced state privatizations or conditionalities. The head of the Hungarian Central Bank then demanded the IMF close its offices in Budapest. In addition, echoing Iceland, the State Attorney General brought charges against the country’s three previous prime ministers because of the criminal amount of debt into which they plunged the nation. That’s a precedent that surely causes cold sweat in some capitals of the EU or Washington and Wall Street.

THIS IS HOW YOU TAKE A NATION DOWN
Imagine if the grid dropped now. Most would freeze to death within just a few days (at least right now). Most cannot handle very basic infrastructure changes.
This is a very real threat. If you are China, you do not invest millions into the study of the other nation's infrastructure unless you have nefarious plans.

RUSSIANS THREATEN GUAM (AGAIN)
I am sure we did several things like this during the Cold War. Russia is yanking our chains yet again.
Here is what is happening:
Here is what is happening:
Russian Bombers Threaten Guam
Two Tu-95 Bears circumnavigate Pacific island, site of major U.S. base (UPDATED)
BY: Bill Gertz
Two Russian strategic bombers circled the U.S. island of Guam last week in what U.S. defense officials say is the latest in a series of nuclear provocations by Moscow.
The bombers were identified by air defenses as Tu-95 Bear H nuclear-capable aircraft that circumnavigated the strategic U.S. military outpost on Friday—amid heightened tensions with Moscow regarding a new buildup of Russian forces in and along the border of eastern Ukraine.
“U.S. Pacific Command can confirm that two aircraft circumnavigated Guam on November 13th,” said spokesman Maj. Christian Devine. “The aircraft were flying safely in international airspace and in accordance with international norms; as such, the decision was made to not intercept them.”
Friday’s flights were the second time in the past two years that Russia conducted unusual long-range bomber missions around the island. Two Tu-95s circled the island on Feb. 12, 2013 and were intercepted by F-15 jets.
The latest bomber flights around the island, located 4,000 miles west of Hawaii, appeared timed to coincide with the G-20 summit in Brisbane, Australia and come amid new tensions with Russia over Ukraine.
The flights took place a day before President Obama arrived in Brisbane for the summit where he met with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
The president told reporters Sunday he had a “businesslike and blunt” exchange with Putin on Ukraine, and urged the Russian leader to “resolve the issue.” Russia’s military forcibly annexed Ukraine’s Crimea and is threatening military action in support of pro-Moscow rebels in eastern Ukraine.
The flights also came after Moscow announced plans to conduct long-range strategic bomber flights over the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean. Russian Defense Minister Sergey Shoigu said Nov. 12 that “we have to maintain [Russia's] military presence in the western Atlantic and eastern Pacific, as well as the Caribbean and the Gulf of Mexico,” adding that dispatches of bombers would be “part of the drills.”
Shoigu said the flights are “connected to the situation in Ukraine, with the emerging anti-Russia inclinations on the part of NATO and the increasing foreign military presence in the immediate vicinity of our borders.”
Guam is the U.S. military’s most important strategic hub in the Asia Pacific and the key base for the Pentagon’s new “Air Sea Battle” concept that calls for closer coordination of Air Force and Navy forces to counter China.
The Air Force regularly deploys B-52 and B-2 bombers to Guam and the long-range Global Hawk drone also operates from the island.
The War is Boring blog reported Nov. 9 that the new RQ-170 Sentinel spy drone was photographed at the island’s Anderson Air Force Base.
The Navy has deployed three attack submarines to Guam and plans to add a fourth as part of the so-called Asia pivot.
The 2013 Russian bomber incursion around Guam came shortly before President Obama’s state of the union message.
Russia in recent years has stepped up aerial incursions into U.S. air defense zones in both the western and eastern coasts. One bomber incursion near Canada’s east coast was assessed by U.S. intelligence agencies as a practice for a nuclear cruise missile strike on the United States.
The closest encounter came in June when two bombers came within 50 miles of California in what military officials said was the nearest Russian strategic aircraft had flown since the Cold War.
“The nuclear bomber provocations have been going on since 2007 but clearly have reached an unprecedented level in 2014,” said Mark Schneider, a former Pentagon official involved in strategic nuclear policy.
“We had better start taking these activities and Russian nuclear strategy seriously and take actions that enhance our nuclear deterrent, or we risk a serious miscalculation on Putin’s part that could result in a major war,” said Schneider, now with the National Institute for Public Policy.
Propeller-driven Bear H bombers are relatively old aircraft but are equipped with Kh-55SM cruise missiles. The missile can be armed with nuclear or conventional warheads and have a range of up to 1,800 miles.
Putin was given a harsh welcome at the Brisbane summit, which ended Sunday. Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper told Putin at the meeting, “I guess I’ll shake your hand, but I have only one thing to say to you: You need to get out of Ukraine.”
Putin left the summit early but denied the departure was related to foreign leaders’ opposition to Russian intervention in Ukraine.
During brief encounters at an earlier summit in Beijing and the one in Australia, Obama told Putin that Russia should abide by the September peace agreement reached in Belarus on Ukraine and voiced concerns about a Russian military buildup in eastern Ukraine, White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest told reporters Nov.13.
On Sunday in Australia, Obama accused the Russians of violating the Belarus accord by supplying arms to rebels in eastern Ukraine.
The Bear bomber flights followed earlier aerial provocations over Europe in late October, prompting NATO interceptor jets to shadow Russian bombers as they flew along Europe’s northern coast as far south as Portugal.
The Russian aircraft were supposed to fly through the Mediterranean where they would have been refueled by aerial tankers that had been deployed to Egypt’s Cairo International Airport. But the longer flights were called off, U.S. and NATO officials said.
Adm. John Kirby, the Pentagon’s press spokesman, voiced concerns about the Russian flights over Europe. “We certainly don’t see these increased flights and activity as helpful to the security situation in Europe,” Kirby told reporters.
“Clearly they pose a potential risk of escalation.”
Russia under Putin, a former KGB political police and intelligence service official, has increased its nuclear saber rattling in recent months. In August, the Russian leader warned the West not to “mess” with a nuclear-armed Russia.
Russia’s Pravda, the Russian Federation Communist Party newspaper, reported Nov. 11 that Moscow is preparing a “nuclear surprise” for NATO: A vast numerical superiority over NATO in numbers of tactical nuclear weapons.
“Here is another surprise, the report said. “As for tactical nuclear weapons, the superiority of modern-day Russia over NATO is even stronger.”
The report said NATO has deployed 260 tactical nuclear arms in Europe, including 200 U.S. bombs at six airbases in Germany, Italy and Belgium.
“Russia, according to conservative estimates, has 5,000 pieces of different classes of [theater nuclear weapons]—from Iskander warheads to torpedo, aerial and artillery warheads,” the report said.
UPDATED 8:45 a.m.: This story was updated to include official comment from the U.S. Pacific Command (PACOM), and corrected to reflect the PACOM spokesman’s assertion that only two Russian bombers circumnavigated the island, and not four, as was initially reported.

A BLAST INTO DENVER'S BLOG
Every once in a while, I will think of Denver and pop over to see how he is doing. I hope the best for him and hold no ill will towards him unless he is knowingly seeking to bring people down to their destruction. On the flip side, I do hold malice and contempt for my compatriot growing up, Tal Bachman, who I believe is doing just that as one of the leading anti-Mormons of our day. I know the diet and environment that Tal was raised on (for mine was virtually one and the same), and I do not approve of how that situation is going.
I agree 100% with what Denver had to say here - most likely in response to the release of the essays on early polygamy in the Church. There is not a single reason or argument for a single person to remain in a state of ignorance. This is part of the reason I read as much as I do - and then share what I find on this rag. I like to be situationally aware, for this life is similar to going on a safari. Its best that we know what dangers lurk around us before we venture out amidst the feral beasts of the night.

Mysteries And Truth
Joseph Smith taught that it is critical for us to know the mysteries of God. "Knowledge saves a man; and in the world of spirits no man can be exalted but by knowledge." TPJS, p. 357.
"A man is saved no faster than he gets knowledge, for if he does not get knowledge, he will be brought into captivity by some evil power in the other world." TPJS, p. 217.
Joseph understood we are saved by gaining knowledge about God’s mysteries. When we are ignorant of them, we cannot be saved. No one can be saved in ignorance. It is not possible.
Joseph's knowledge mirrored what is taught and reflected in the Book of Mormon:
Alma 12: 9-11 explains:
“It is given unto many to know the mysteries of God; nevertheless they are laid under a strict command that they shall not impart only according to the portion of his word which he doth grant unto the children of men, according to the heed and diligence which they give unto him. And therefore, he that will harden his heart, the same receiveth the lesser portion of the word; and he that will not harden his heart, to him is given the greater portion of the word, until it is given unto him to know the mysteries of God until he know them in full. And they that will harden their hearts, to them is given the lesser portion of the word until they know nothing concerning his mysteries; and then they are taken captive by the devil, and led by his will down to destruction. Now this is what is meant by the chains of hell.”
The definition of being taken captive by the devil is to “know nothing concerning [God’s] mysteries.”
When a person knows nothing concerning God’s mysteries, they are then “led by his [the devil’s] will down to destruction.”
When they are taken captive by their ignorance, they are then bound “by the chains of hell.”
The result of ignorance of God’s mysteries is “destruction” and “captivity.” The ignorant will remain devoted to falsehoods, blinded leaders, and guides who give no truthful accounts of the awful situation faced by the ignorant because they do not understand truth.
D&C 93: 24-25: “And truth is knowledge of things as they are, and as they were, and as they are to come; And whatsoever is more or less than this is the spirit of that wicked one who was a liar from the beginning.”
We must know the truth. The truth informs us how things are (now, today, in the peril we presently face–unvarnished and in all its terrible meaning).
The truth informs us of how things were (by accurate history, revealing exactly what happened, without mythical or political overlay, with its disappointments and tragedies candidly depicted).
The truth informs us of the things to come (even if the prophecies and promises dash our hopes, crush our vanity and expose our foolishness).
Truth can be startling, but it is necessary. Without the truth it is impossible to repent. We will never change while trusting a lie. But we will never fail to repent when the truth is laid bare before us.
In order to take people captive, all that is required is for people to be content with their ignorance. The greatest threat to salvation does not come from teaching false doctrine, but instead comes from ignoring doctrine altogether. Substituting platitudes and truisms for careful, ponderous and solemn investigation of the deep things of God will suffice to keep people in the chains of captivity. It isn't necessary for the devil to convince you of lies, only for him to make you content in your ignorance, or fearful of the search for truth.

I happen to think he is right. There are a lot of frustrated people in America who feel that they are trapped financially and socially. They will effect change one way or another......
Most are just looking for a trigger event:

P^3 QUOTE ON DREAMS
I liked this and thought I would share:
"In all ages and dispensations God has revealed many important instructions and warnings to men by means of dreams. When the outward organs of thought and perception are released from their activity, the nerves unstrung, and the whole of mortal humanity lies hushed in quiet slumbers, in order to renew its strength and vigour, it is then that the spiritual organs are at liberty, in a certain degree, to assume their wonted functions, to recall some faint outlines, some confused and half defined recollections, of that heavenly world, and those endearing scenes of their former estate, from which they have descended in order to obtain and mature a tabernacle of flesh. Their kindred spirits, their guardian angels then hover about them with the fondest affection, the most anxious solicitude. Spirit communes with spirit, thought meets thought, soul blends with soul, in all the raptures of mutual, pure, and eternal love. In this situation, the spiritual organs are susceptible of converse with Deity, or of communion with angels, and the spirits of just men made perfect."
Key to the science of theology by Parley P. Pratt
COULD IT BE THIS BAD?
My first rule is: never trust a satanist or a statist.
If it is this entrenched, we are pretty much in deep doo-doo. Christ will win - but holy smokes, the odds are def stacked against an easy victory.
Here is what got me spun up:
In an explosive deathbed confession, a former head of the satanist "Alpha Lodge" in Sydney, Australia, revealed the pervasive worldwide power of organized Satanism, which is synonymous with the Illuminati.
"Things are not as they seem -- and they have not been for a long, long time," he wrote, describing a wholesale betrayal of society by its ostensible leaders.
"Petor Narsagonan" aka "Frater 616" died March 25, 2004. Recently, his executor, an "Aloysius Fozdyke" (their satanic names) sent the 15 pp. document by email to Arthur Cristian, webmaster of "loveforlife.com.au"
"I have felt it necessary to edit very little of this work," "Fozdyke" wrote to Cristian, "although legal considerations have ensured that some names and details were excised. It was His intention to have this published in the popular media."
What follows is a synopsis of this shocking document focusing on Satanic power and influence.
Satanic influence is "now so pervasive as not to be readily noticed," Frater says.
Satanists are laced throughout Australian society, and the pattern is replicated everywhere.
They include politicians, doctors, high ranking police officers, lawyers, decorated military men, media personalities, fashion models and social workers. The most talented have lifestyles maintained by crime under a veneer of respectable professionalism and knowledge. Marginal types (prostitutes, drug dealers) are important to Satanism but are merely tools.
Frater explains he got involved in a satanic group in university in 1971. "I fell through a crack in reality...I escaped the mundane through one of western society's fault lines."
"A mentor" in the Satanic network set him up in the travel business and for years Frater live a life of unimaginable wealth, occultism and debauchery. He studied the blacks arts: divination, dark meditation, sacrifice, sexual vampirism, voodoo dolls and sex magic. Each day ended with a "Black Mass orgy of unforgettable and unspeakable delight."
The US-based "Church of Satan" was the public face of "an ancient body whose very existence had never before been imagined." He lists as "influential members" J.P. Morgan, Drs. James McDonald and Rene Hardy, the Kennedy's (including Jackie), Irving Berlin, Groucho Marx, Elvis Presley, Garner Ted Armstrong, Sammy Davis Jr., Ronald Reagan, Edward Heath, Thomas Plantard de St Claire and the Bushes. He later mentions Stephen Spielberg, George Lucas and Gerald Ford as members.
US MILITARY AND INTELLIGENCE INFILTRATED BY SATANISTS
Intelligence agencies are instruments of the Illuminati central bankers. Frater says, "American Intelligence Services" funded the occult.
"Many of America's high ranking military men were members of various Satanic Lodges or kindred organizations." They overlapped with organized crime and drug trafficking. US and Australian Navy ships were used, as well as oil tankers.
Brothels and porn are a small part of the "International Satanic Empire" (i.e. Illuminati.) Most of the money comes from CIA drug trafficking, sophisticated blackmail, money lending and currency trading.
"The US Federal government dances to our tune ( a couple of steps removed, if you know what I mean!)"
"Satanists of the highest order are behind a number of wealthy, Conservative, New Right Christian churches and organizations in America. These are some of contemporary Satanism's best cash-flow enterprises (mostly indirectly) and allow mass indoctrination and networking."
Henry Kissinger first proposed using fundamentalist Christianity to bring about war, first in the Middle East and then globally. Kissinger "refined Hitler's 'Terror Technique' ... building tension within a society and then finding a scapegoat. Dark Path adepts do this ... to move people to more gross and hideous behaviors."
The aim of the Alpha Lodge is 66% illiteracy rates in the Western World by 2010, and "the destruction of at least 70% of the globe's population by the year 2030."

RUSSIA DOES ABOVE GROUND NUKE TEST??.... URALS
It seems that it would have lasted longer than that. It was some kind of high energy event - but not so sure on the nuke thing.
I would not be surprised, it it were. Running their military airplanes around European airspace with the transponder off and generally breaking every international norm that they can. They feel cornered and they are trying to send a message to back off, folks. When that nation feels like they can do nothing else to get our attention - they will do the unthinkable:

SOLAR ACTIVITY REASON FOR MASSIVE EQ AND SOCIAL UNREST?
This Russian scientist seemed to accurately predict our current solar trend and had some interesting
cause/effect statements that caught my eye:

cause/effect statements that caught my eye:
Casey also suggests that a long-term cold spell will have dire effects on the earth's geology.
As air and ocean temperatures cool, the earth's crust begins changing, leading to more volcanic activity and earthquakes. Casey notes that the worst earthquake to strike the continental U.S. in modern times was in 1812 in New Madrid, Missouri — during the last great solar minimum.
The climate changes also will affect human activity and may be a prelude to revolutionary politics. He says the French Revolution took place at the beginning of the last solar minimum in 1789.
"It could be one of the reasons Putin is so eager to get Ukraine," Casey says. "For many decades before Ukraine became independent, it was the primary source of wheat for the Soviet Union during cold weather times. Putin must have the wheat of Ukraine for the new cold era."

RUSSIA FAKED THE 777 IMAGE FROM THE UKRAINIAN INCIDENT
I was looking at the supposed Russian satellite evidence that shows MH17 being fired on by a Russian-made jet. There is enough detail to show the airplane they used for their photoshop fakery. It shows over-wing exits and a shorter fuselage (not the length of a 777-300ER). Sorry, folks but the 777-200 was not certified with an over-wing exit. This most likely is a 767 with the over-wing exit markings, as shown. A traditional full-size over-wing door adds an incredible amount of weight to an airplane because all of the flight loads have to be transmitted from the wing into the fuselage via the skin. When you make a hole of that size in the skin, the load path must circumvent that massive cutout, so the loads become concentrated (especially at the corners of the cutout). The skin there can be 10-20 times the normal skin thickness due to stress concentrations there. So, if at all possible, the overwing doors are avoided. In the case of the 767 or 737, smaller hatches about the width of a human body are used to get the passengers out. These typically come in pairs and are somewhat effective unless people panic and then the bodies tend to pile up inside and they asphyxiate from the smoke and die before they are roasted by the actual flames (gross, eh?) in a crash and burn scenario.
Also, I did not see evidence of a flaperon that was a relatively new development on the 777 that was not on the older 767 and other wide-bodies of that era. The flaperon is a hybrid flight control surface that works as both an inboard aileron and a trailing edge flap. It sits directly behind the engine and moves within the thrust stream doing a lion-share of the roll/anti-roll work on the 777. Traditionally, the ailerons are located further outboard on the wing, and this distance from the roll axis produces a lag in roll/anti-roll response and needlessly stresses the outboard wing structure. The inboard aileron reduces these problems considerably. The outboard ailerons on the 777 are still used for secondary response and for fly-by-cable if the fly-by-wire system is not functional due to power outages or loss of hydraulics that would normally power the flaperon. That flight control is a high input "hydraulic hog" - so an alternate system was needed, probably for ETOPS certification. The flaperon is also used as a flap on landing and operates as a high-lift device with the rest of the trailing edge system one the flaps are extended on landing and takeoff. It's function as an inboard aileron is still active in that mode, doing double duty until the trailing edge system is stowed/faired for the cruise portion of the flight. So, the Ruskies screwed up on that one. Not only was their photoshopping bad, they did not make a very good case in the international media. Like Hitler proved, you can sell the public on any lie, you just have to have complete control over the media in order to do it. Here in Amerika, they have nearly got complete control of the media, excepting the internet - which is why they are attempting to control it. During the rioting in Cairo during the Arab uprising, they were able to hit the internet "kill switch" there in Cairo and shut down the ability of the protesters to communicate. This is why bummer now has controlled that via EO and other means. Now, they are trying to turn it all over to the UN for ultimate world-wide control so that the new leader can do it seamlessly on a world scale. How convenient for them....... These traitors will all hang.
When you are getting ready to basically take over the world, you need your disinformation outlets in place so you can placate/misinform the people who might otherwise rise up. Spencer mentioned the lack of good/reliable news available after the takeover by the Russians/Chinese. For the conqueror, this is a key requirement.

AS IF ON QUEUE, STATE OF EMERGENCY IN FERGUSEN, MISERY (INCLUDING NATIONAL GUARD)
Wow - the marxist agitators that obummer met with just after the election did hold their ground and there is now going to be hell to pay in Fergie, MO.
Wow - just lovely. If this spreads to Chicago (and the National Guard is called out there as well), the Mp is potentially back on track for 100% for the year......
I do not take joy in misfortune (and I love the Constitution of this nation) et's just get it over with already. Putin is pretty angry - all we need is a catalyst (a knife in the back of a pro-Russian leader) or a nuke hitting Israel from Libya and the show is on....... Break out the Redenbachers......it is show time.
Here is the article that got me spun up:
http://stlouis.cbslocal.com/2014/11/17/nixon-activates-missouri-national-guard/
OK - forget the Ruskies...... This is way more serious!!
http://theweek.com/speedreads/index/272087/speedreads-manufacturers-warn-that-the-world-may-soon-run-out-of-chocolate
World is running out of chocolate!! Arghhh! Women everywhere will be cranky and out of sorts. Run for the bunkers, men!! This explains much - where all the men went and there were only a ratio of 7:1 when the dust settled according to Isaiah. I thought us men were all going to die in bloody warfare. Not so..... There will be a bloody fight for the women afterwards though when all the dudes emerge from the bunkers and find their wives have run off with the dudes who didn't fall for the chocolate ruse...... Never fall for the ruse, guys.

PULLING OUT OF CHICAGO - AND THE SOUTH RISING AGAIN
This is a fantastic gem about the sad state of affairs in Chicago.
And then there is the South - the once-bastion of liberal policies (holding slaves back in the day) is now the conservative hold-out.
We live in strange times. You know, with Putin suddenly leaving the G20 summit after Western leaders were giving him a hard time (he lost the propaganda war when the satellite evidence he brought with him was discredited in all the major MSM outlets), and our lovely prez encouraging the freaks in Misery to keep on keepin' on with their rioting, I have to wonder if things will still not go down in Chicago (and then the nukes) by the end of the year, just as the Mp said they would. Even if they do not, the pot is simmering in all the right places for this tasty stew to come to it's own in the next year or two. How is that food storage, water storage and spiritual salvation coming along? Only those who are prepared in all areas and who do not have fear in their hearts because they are firmly rooted in the Gospel, will make it thru what is coming:
Illinois vs. Oklahoma
These two set of facts, the first about Illinois and the second about Oklahoma, make an interesting contrast.
PART ONE: ILLINOIS
A State with No Republicans! Very interesting… Makes you want to move there, doesn’t it? A wonderful state with zero Republicans – The State of Illinois.
Some interesting data on the ‘state’ of Illinois …
There are more people on welfare in Illinois than there are people working. Chicago pays the highest wages to teachers than anywhere else in the U.S. averaging $110,000/year. Their pensions average 80-90% of their income. Wow, are Illinois and Chicago great or what? Be sure to read till the end. I’ve never heard it explained better. Perhaps the U.S. should pull out of Chicago?
Body count: In the last six months, 292 killed (murdered) in Chicago.
221 killed in Iraq;
Chicago has one of the strictest gun laws in the entire US.
Here’s the Chicago chain of command:
President: Barack Hussein Obama
Senator: Dick Durbin
House Representative: Jesse Jackson Jr.
Governor: Pat Quinn
House leader: Mike Madigan
Atty. Gen.: Lisa Madigan (daughter of Mike Madigan)
Mayor: Rahm Emanuel
The leadership in Illinois – all Democrats.
Thank you for the combat zone in Chicago. Of course, they’re all blaming each other.
Can’t blame Republicans; THERE AREN’T ANY!
Chicago school system rated one of the worst in the country. Can’t blame Republicans; THERE AREN’T ANY!
State pension fund $78 Billion in debt, worst in country. Can’t blame Republicans; THERE AREN’T ANY!
Cook County (Chicago) sales tax 10.25% which is the highest in country. Can’t blame Republicans; THERE AREN’T ANY!
This is the political culture that Obama comes from in Illinois. And he is going to ‘fix’ Washington politics for us?
George Ryan is no longer Governor, he is in prison.
He was replaced by Rob Blagojevich who is, that’s right, also in prison.
Representative Jesse Jackson Jr. resigned.
He and his wife both are in prison also.
The Land of Lincoln, where our Governors and Representatives make our license plates. What?
As long as they keep providing entitlements to the population of Chicago, nothing is going to change, except the state will go broke before the country does.
“Anybody who thinks he can be happy and prosperous by letting the Government take care of him better take a closer look at the American Indian.”
“Don’t forget Detroit, another great example of a Democratic empire.”
PART TWO: OKLAHOMA
OKLAHOMA – may soon have plenty of new residents! THIS IS REALLY INTERESTING, AND TRUE … PLEASE READ IT!
Oklahoma is the only state that Obama did not win even one county in the last election. While everyone is focusing on Arizona’s new law, look what Oklahoma has been doing!!!
An update from Oklahoma:
Oklahoma law passed, 37 to 9 an amendment to place the Ten Commandments on the front entrance to the state capitol.
The feds in D.C., along with the ACLU, said it would be a mistake. Hey this is a conservative state, based on Christian values…
HB 1330: Guess what… OKLAHOMA DID IT ANYWAY!
Oklahoma recently passed a law in the state to incarcerate all illegal immigrants, and ship them back to where they came from unless they want to get a green card and become an American citizen. They all scattered.
HB 1804: This was against the advice of the Federal Government, and the ACLU, they said it would be a mistake. Guess what… OKLAHOMA DID IT ANYWAY!
Recently they passed a law to include DNA samples from any and all illegal’s to the Oklahoma database, for criminal investigative purposes.
Pelosi said it was unconstitutional.
SB 1102: Guess what… OKLAHOMA DID IT ANYWAY!
Several weeks ago, they passed a law, declaring Oklahoma as a Sovereign state, not under the Federal Government directives, joining Texas, Montana and Utah as the only states to do so.
More states are likely to follow: Louisiana, Alabama, Georgia, Carolina’s, Kentucky, Missouri, Arkansas, West Virginia, Mississippi and Florida.
Save your confederate money, it appears the South is about to rise up once again.
HJR 1003: The federal Government has made bold steps to take away their guns. Oklahoma, a week ago, passed a law confirming people in this state have the right to bear arms and transport them in their vehicles.
I’m sure that was a setback for the criminals The Liberals didn’t like it — But…. Guess what… OKLAHOMA DID IT ANYWAY!
Just this month, the state voted, and passed a law, that ALL drivers’ license exams will be printed in English, and only English. They have been called racist for doing this, but the fact is that ALL of the road signs are in English only. If you want to drive in Oklahoma, you must read and write English. Really simple. By the way, the Liberals don’t like any of this either . Guess what… who cares… OKLAHOMA DID IT ANYWAY!
If you like this information, please share it. if you don’t, well, the rest of us will ANYWAY!
All this is confirmed. See the following;

I’m sure that was a setback for the criminals The Liberals didn’t like it — But…. Guess what… OKLAHOMA DID IT ANYWAY!
Just this month, the state voted, and passed a law, that ALL drivers’ license exams will be printed in English, and only English. They have been called racist for doing this, but the fact is that ALL of the road signs are in English only. If you want to drive in Oklahoma, you must read and write English. Really simple. By the way, the Liberals don’t like any of this either . Guess what… who cares… OKLAHOMA DID IT ANYWAY!
If you like this information, please share it. if you don’t, well, the rest of us will ANYWAY!
All this is confirmed. See the following;

DRINK THE PURPLE KOOL-AID!!!!!!! EBOLA SURVIVAL TIP
Usually, we are warned to avoid the proverbial purple kool-aid. In this case, we are told to go against the proverbial wisdom...... Maybe it is no coinkydink that I recently bought about 200 kool-aid flavor packs at my local discount store where they are a dime each instead of the quarter they charge at other stores. This with some sugar, and you are set!
Apparently, the trick is to "pre-hydrate" when you think you may be coming down with a flu or other illness. If flavoring helps in that process, then drink the purple kool-aid is the conventional thinking. I thought IV would be the easiest way to get the fluids into the body, but this must be the key.
The thought occurred to me as to why Utah will have it so hard during this scourge. It will be due to lack of clean drinkable water when water mains are busted and there is general chaos. If you have 6 people in your home who all need a gallon a day (minimum), it depletes even a larger store of water pretty quickly.

Beating Ebola Hinges on Sipping a Gallon of Liquid a Day
The best medical advice for surviving Ebola right now might fit in one word: drink.
With targeted drugs and vaccines at least months away, doctors and public health experts are learning from Ebola survivors what simple steps helped them beat the infection. Turns out drinking 4 liters (1 gallon) or more of rehydration solution a day -- a challenge for anyone and especially those wracked by relentless bouts of vomiting -- is crucial.
Aggressive fluid replacement was deemed critical in saving two
American health-care workers with Ebola at the Emory University Hospital
in Atlanta, according to a study
published in the New England Journal of Medicine last week. Interviews
Mardel and WHO colleagues conducted with six of the dozen patients who
survived Ebola in Nigeria, where the fatality ratio was much lower, also
point to the importance of drinking. Ada Igonoh, a doctor who caught
Ebola in late July while working at the First Consultants Hospital in
Lagos, said she took oral rehydration salts, or ORS, mixed in water as
soon her gastrointestinal symptoms started -- even before her Ebola
diagnosis. Once hospitalized, she trawled the Internet on her iPad for
insights from survivors.
The WHO shared transcripts of interviews with Igonoh and five other Ebola survivors with the patients’ permission to provide insight into clinical experiences and management. Igonoh also answered follow-up questions in a direct e-mail.
Patients in Liberia lost 5 liters of fluid a day from diarrhea alone, doctors treating cases there wrote in a Nov. 5 paper in the New England Journal of Medicine.
Severe fluid loss can cause a type of shock that prevents the heart from pumping enough blood to the body, eventually leading to multiple organ failure.
“As I took the ORS and treated dehydration, it provided me with energy, and my immune system was able to battle the virus,” 29-year-old Igonoh said.
“You don’t want to drink, then you’re too weak,” he said in a
telephone interview from Freetown. “In the last stage, you’re in shock
and your gut has shut down.”
Mardel has worked on medical aid and emergency relief operations for 30 years, including responding to outbreaks of Lassa fever in Sierra Leone, Ebola in Uganda and Marburg virus disease in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
Mortality could be reduced by delivering a simple message about the importance of taking fluids and picking the right painkillers, he said. Paracetamol, the active ingredient in Panadol, is the preferred medication for pain and fever, and picking others such as aspirin and ibuprofen can worsen bleeding, he said.
“We will halve the mortality by firstly just stopping anti-inflammatories and giving hydration, and really pushing it,” Mardel said. “I want every man and woman in Sierra Leone to know this. I want sports personalities to be talking about it. I want everybody to be talking about it.”
Nigeria’s success in stopping Ebola shows how the virus can be stamped out and is a blueprint for other developing countries at risk of the disease, the WHO said after declaring Africa’s most-populous nation Ebola-free last month.
Learning from their experience and putting those lessons to use in other West African countries is key, because too many patients arrive at treatment centers severely parched and difficult to salvage, Mardel said.
“Over eight to 10 days of illness, you will need possibly 40 liters of fluid,” Mardel said. “Day after day, if you’re not getting that, we can’t suddenly give you 20 liters to catch up.”
A fluid deficit and “profound electrolyte derangement” appears to increase the risk of death, the WHO said in a Nov. 6 statement. In that document, the Geneva-based agency recommended intravenous rehydration. Not everyone agrees that that delivery route is the best way to go. Oral rehydration, which is taken up in the gut, seems to help patients maintain a better balance of electrolytes, according to Mardel.
Still, drinking has its challenges. Patients must overcome recurring nausea, as well as debilitating joint pain that can make gripping and movement difficult.
Ebola survivor Fadipe Akinniyi Emmanuel, another doctor at the First Consultants Hospital where Igonoh works, said gulping down the rehydration solution made him sick.
“Each time I attempted to take the ORS, I vomited,” he told the WHO, according to the transcript. Eventually, Emmanuel found he could keep down 4 liters of fluids a day by taking frequent, small sips between bouts of nausea.
“It really helped restore what I was losing when I was stooling and vomiting relentlessly,” said the 29-year-old doctor, who still suffers occasional joint pain and stiffness as a result of his past Ebola infection.
Flavoring the liquid also helps. The granules that Emmanuel’s colleague Igonoh took at home were orange-flavored and much more pleasant than the flavorless kind she was given in the hospital, she said.
“I had to mentally force myself,” she said, according to the transcript.
Igonoh used less of the rehydration salts per liter of water than recommended because a more diluted brew was easier to stomach, helping her to increase her intake, she said.
“You don’t want to drink anything,” Igonoh said. “You are too weak.” That’s when morale is key, said the doctor, who now sports a shaved head after the viral illness caused most of her hair to fall out. “You should be able to tell yourself, no matter how many people die, you are going to survive. And you will survive.”

“When
people are infected, they get dry as a crisp really quickly,” said
Simon Mardel, an emergency room doctor advising the World Health
Organization on Ebola in Sierra Leone. “Then the tragedy is that they
don’t want to drink.” Studying in Seclusion
“I knew that in diarrheal diseases, shock from dehydration is the number one cause of death,” Igonoh said in an e-mail. “From my research on Ebola while in isolation, I found that to be true.”The WHO shared transcripts of interviews with Igonoh and five other Ebola survivors with the patients’ permission to provide insight into clinical experiences and management.

Simple Message
Patients become “stunningly dehydrated” because they don’t feel like eating or drinking in the early stages of the illness, and then later they lose liters of fluid from profuse sweating, vomiting and diarrhea, according to Mardel.Mardel has worked on medical aid and emergency relief operations for 30 years, including responding to outbreaks of Lassa fever in Sierra Leone, Ebola in Uganda and Marburg virus disease in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
Mortality could be reduced by delivering a simple message about the importance of taking fluids and picking the right painkillers, he said.

Ebola Blueprint
In Nigeria, 40 percent of those known to have been infected died. Across the rest of West Africa, the fatality rate is about 70 percent.Nigeria’s success in stopping Ebola shows how the virus can be stamped out and is a blueprint for other developing countries at risk of the disease, the WHO said after declaring Africa’s most-populous nation Ebola-free last month.

Learning from their experience and putting those lessons to use in other West African countries is key, because too many patients arrive at treatment centers severely parched and difficult to salvage, Mardel said.
Spurning Care
Patients typically seek medical aid after five days of illness, according to a study of Ebola cases in Conakry also published Nov. 5 in the New England Journal of Medicine.“Over eight to 10 days of illness, you will need possibly 40 liters of fluid,” Mardel said. “Day after day, if you’re not getting that, we can’t suddenly give you 20 liters to catch up.”

Oral rehydration, which is taken up in the gut, seems to help patients maintain a better balance of electrolytes, according to Mardel.
Don’t Gulp
Most intravenous rehydration fluids also don’t have much potassium, calcium, or magnesium, doctors at Emory University Hospital wrote in their journal article last week. They recommend supplementing oral rehydration with all three, especially in patients with large-volume diarrhea.Still, drinking has its challenges. Patients must overcome recurring nausea, as well as debilitating joint pain that can make gripping and movement difficult.
Ebola survivor Fadipe Akinniyi Emmanuel, another doctor at the First Consultants Hospital where Igonoh works, said gulping down the rehydration solution made him sick.
“Each time I attempted to take the ORS, I vomited,” he told the WHO, according to the transcript. Eventually, Emmanuel found he could keep down 4 liters of fluids a day by taking frequent, small sips between bouts of nausea.
‘Most Important Thing’
Rehydration is “the single most important thing” in the management of Ebola, Emmanuel said in an e-mailed response to questions.“It really helped restore what I was losing when I was stooling and vomiting relentlessly,” said the 29-year-old doctor, who still suffers occasional joint pain and stiffness as a result of his past Ebola infection.
Flavoring the liquid also helps. The granules that Emmanuel’s colleague Igonoh took at home were orange-flavored and much more pleasant than the flavorless kind she was given in the hospital, she said.

JULIE ROWE ON THE CRENSHAW SHOW
I have a very high opinion of Julie. She has a pure countenance. I like her. However, I do not believe in anything to do with energy healing - which she seems to be in favor of. I believe the devil has imitations to the real deal.

Climate change. (North and South Poles are splitting. 2014 NASA report.) Airports are 10 degrees off on radar, http://www.nasa.gov/topics/earth/features/2012-poleReversal.html
Earthquakes and other natural disasters. (EQ frequency has doubled in the last decade.) The Lord will begin his cleansing in his own house first. Utah will have an EQ and Plague at the same time on the heels of a worldwide financial collapse. See earthquake chart, D&C 88:88-91, D&C 45:33,
D&C 112:24-26, Revelation 16:18, Revelation 6:12,

Destroying angel will be allowed to go forth. D&C 8:5-8,
First “call out” (gathering) will take place to survive the plague. (Late spring.) Saints with food storage invited to go. Cars/trucks are available to haul preps. Less than 10% of the members go. Various reasons (don’t grasp the urgency, don’t want to share, don’t want to leave possessions, etc.) http://www.nofearpreps.com/prophesied-events-list.html
See General Authority documented quotes about a gathering and leading the Saints to a refuge (8 pages of quotes). See Temple Dreamer, Dreams & Visions Vol. I, II, & III. See Cardston Prophecy. http://www.nofearpreps.com/quotes-from-gas.html
Long winter is unusual and stops planting of crops, a great hailstorm destroys the crops, both add to the famine. D&C 29:16 Revelation 16:21
Almost all of the dreamers saw the long, harsh winter. Cleansing of America, p. 18, Joseph Smith talks about the great desolation of an earthquake, hail, famine and war that "will make an end to all nations".
Woe #1 (5 mo. War – Desert Storm, aggravated Middle East) Only 5 month war in recorded history. Description matches the events.
Woe #2 (13 mo. War and plague kill 3 billion on earth.) Read Charles Evans Dream about a civil war in America. See John Taylor's Dream about a plague (Ebola symptoms) that devastates the US and the World. See Sarah Menet, Suzanne Freeman, Spencer (VOG), Gayle Smith all see more than one plague killing the masses.
This is the “Abomination of Desolation” as spoken of by Daniel. The Savior is speaking to his disciples about an event from 200 years before him that was an abomination. He says the abomination will happen again (anti-Christ will force them to worship an idol in their temple and Israel will be under seige), at which time they should stand in holy places and flee to the mountains. Revelation 13:14 Matthew 24:15-16. The same pattern is for New Jerusalem too.
Ebola is described as bleeding internally to death. Has a 90 fatality rate. Die within days. 5,000 deaths now. Project 1.4 million by January. Project 5 million before it is contained (if it doesn’t come to America). John Taylor’s dream describes this massive death toll on America’s states, including Utah with a plague that also causes internal bleeding.
See John Taylor's dream, See Dream of Plagues (under book list tab).
Dollar Collapse. Worldwide depression begins. No work, no gas, no travel. Patriarch Charles Evans vision describes this in detail. Civil War in America ensues. Race rioting on a vast scale. See Cardston Prophecy. See Bishop Koyle vision. See Sarah Menet, Julie Rowe and Suzanne Freeman dreams. See George Albert Smith vision "collapse will make the great depression look like a picnic".
When the dollar is collapsed intentionally by New World Order operatives such as Illuminati, Builderberg Group, UN Agenda 21, this will trigger a civil war for 13 months. The New World Order calls for the earth’s population to be reduced to 500,000. We are currently at 8 billion. Ebola and a new strain of small pox has been weaponized and will intentionally be released. Spencer sees the troops inoculated against the plague. See John Taylor vision. See Dream of Plagues vision. Many other dreamers see a civil war and a devastating plague. See George Albert Smith vision "collapse will make the great depression look like a picnic".
Saints begin their trek back to Jackson County, MO. (takes years) Mighty miracles occur. Some get new transfigured bodies to complete this journey. People are raised from the dead. The plague is held back from the saints. A cloak of invisibility is provided for those in tent cities so the troops cannot find them.
VOG, Through the Windows of Life, Dream of Plagues,
This is the time to become “refined” enough to meet the Savior. We must abdicate all physical possessions, we People gather from all over to get to the intermountain region. More groups leave to find the tent cities from the first call out. Violence and chaos are rampant. Must flee by foot, only take what you can carry. No vehicles/gas/trailers available. Patriarch Charles Evans vision describes this in detail. Civil War in America ensues. Race rioting on a vast scale. See Cardston Prophecy. See Bishop Koyle vision. See Sarah Menet, Julie Rowe and Suzanne Freeman dreams.
Foreign troops finally arrive in Utah to help with the earthquake and plague, but martial law is declared instead. No prayers are allowed, no gatherings, no church, no meetings. Temples are closed.
Spencer (VOG), Sarah Menet, Suzanne Freeman, Julie Rowe, Temple Dreamer, Bishop Koyle, George Washington all had dreams/vision of these troops.
America is attacked. No electricity (EMP) from nuclear bombs set off to create the EMP (HAFB is one of the places). The attack is from China (west coast) and Russia (east coast). The UN declares the mid-west (farming communities) as the “world’s land”. See GA Smith vision, Sarah Menet, Patriarch Wolfgram, and all the others talk about this attack.
In his own words, Chinese General: http://www.rense.com/general85/China%27sPlanToConquer.htm
Utah misses the start of this attack because no electricity from the earthquake to announce the news. VOG
All happen in rapid succession:
Gathering in the mountains (call out) in Spring/Summer of 2016 (election year).
Dollar Collapse – September Sarah, Gayle, "10 days before the earthquake"
Jewish Calendar/Rabbi says (2015 stock market crash),
Earthquake – October Bishop Koyle, Gayle, Sarah, (actually use the month "October"), VOG says earthquake is one month before the troops show up.
Presidential Election – NOV (during presidency when first time president is not of European ancestry)
America attacked before new president can take office – Patriarch Wolfgramm, G.A. Smith
Note: "Not of European ancestry was meant to reference "black". Greek ancestry was meant to reference "black". During G.A. Smith's generation, they commonly referred to blacks as "Greeks" as to not be offensive with Negro". However, upon further search, Obama does have Greek ancestry as his ancestors were slave traders from North Africa (Kenya). North Africa was a Greek and Christian culture, and at one time a part of the Roman Empire.
DEC to trigger martial law and allow the UN to implement the New World President (Anti-Christ). Author Avraham Gileadi shared that he is good friends with Spencer (VOG) and will vouch for him. He said Spencer had other visions not recorded in VOG, this was one of them.
Light winter so saints can recover from the earthquake and plague, saints in the mountains are spared. (VOG)
Famine is in full force. Mark of the Beast is instituted. No buying or selling without the chip in your hand. To receive the chip, you must denounce Jesus Christ or else be beheaded. Anti-Christ is at the helm over all nations. Suzanne Freeman, VOG, Sarah Menet, Revelation 13:1-8, 16-18
UN already has someone they are sponsoring and touting as the New World President. His name is Maitreya. He is going around performing miracles on camera. He talks of a New World Order and social justice. He says he is the Messiah of all religions in one. Must read UN Magazine write up:
http://www.share-international.org/maitreya/Ma_main.htm
(Watch his Youtube videos and notice the blind followers comments.)
Israel builds a temple. See notes above on Israel/Jewish people.
Armageddon begins. Revelation 16:14-16
(3 year war – 3rd woe.) Revelation 11:14, Zechariah 11 to 14.
Two prophets killed. Revelation chapter 11.
Mt. of Olives split open. Zechariah 14:1-5
Christ rescues the Jews and teaches them the gospel.
Christ kills the world’s army who went against the Jews.
Christ goes to Adam-ondi-ahman. New Jerusalem is in the process of being built. D&C 107:53-57, D&C 116, Daniel 7:9-14
We must love and share under intense stress. We must rely on God for our every need. We must develop humility and patience before we can qualify to be in the presence of God. Thus, our journey, by foot back to MO. - Through the Windows of Life, Suzanne Freeman.
Lost 10 tribes appear to help with the journey and to fight back the foreign troops. See Cleansing of America, Through the Windows of Life, VOG
Constitution hangs by a thread (America to become a UN country) when the brethren take on the troops with the lost tribes and defeat them. They retreat and America is re-established. George Washington’s Dream sees this defeat. VOG, and Suzanne Freeman.
The Savior comes in from the heavens. The righteous are waiting (LDS and nonLDS) in MO and are lifted up to meet him. This includes those who are resurrected in the morning of the 1st resurrection.
The earth burns to stubble to take out any wicked who are left.
The Millennium is ushered in. Satan is bound for 1,000 years. Satan is release for a small season at the end of the 1,000 years for one final test and then he is bound forever.
Temples are open 24/7 for 1,000 years as people prepare for the final judgment, reconnect family lines, and work on spiritual progression.
Final judgment takes place. The souls who did not come forth in the first resurrection, come forth now.
Assignments are made to the three degrees of glory.
Nice work. No one knows exactly how it will go down.

Many temples will be built. Isaiah 2:2 D&C 133:13
Famine - (CA feeds 25% of the world. Worst drought in history. Whole lakes gone. Rationing starting. No end in sight. TX started 3 years prior. Multiple fires from dry land. Cannot afford the water to be trucked in to plant.) Matthew 24:7 Bishop John Koyle Vision (famine lasts 5 years. Wheat more valuable than gold.) Sarah Menet, Temple Dreamer, Suzanne Freeman.
Climate change. (North and South Poles are splitting. 2014 NASA report.) Airports are 10 degrees off on radar, http://www.nasa.gov/topics/earth/features/2012-poleReversal.html
Earthquakes and other natural disasters. (EQ frequency has doubled in the last decade.) The Lord will begin his cleansing in his own house first. Utah will have an EQ and Plague at the same time on the heels of a worldwide financial collapse. See earthquake chart, D&C 88:88-91, D&C 45:33,
D&C 112:24-26, Revelation 16:18, Revelation 6:12,
Sarah Menet, Spencer, Suzanne Freeman, Gayle Smith, Bishop Koyle all say there is a Utah EQ. See events table and patterns. http://www.nofearpreps.com/prophesied-events-list.html
Destroying angel will be allowed to go forth. D&C 8:5-8,
First “call out” (gathering) will take place to survive the plague. (Late spring.) Saints with food storage invited to go. Cars/trucks are available to haul preps. Less than 10% of the members go. Various reasons (don’t grasp the urgency, don’t want to share, don’t want to leave possessions, etc.) http://www.nofearpreps.com/prophesied-events-list.html
See General Authority documented quotes about a gathering and leading the Saints to a refuge (8 pages of quotes). See Temple Dreamer, Dreams & Visions Vol. I, II, & III. See Cardston Prophecy. http://www.nofearpreps.com/quotes-from-gas.html
Long winter is unusual and stops planting of crops, a great hailstorm destroys the crops, both add to the famine. D&C 29:16 Revelation 16:21
Almost all of the dreamers saw the long, harsh winter. Cleansing of America, p. 18, Joseph Smith talks about the great desolation of an earthquake, hail, famine and war that "will make an end to all nations".
Woe #1 (5 mo. War – Desert Storm, aggravated Middle East) Only 5 month war in recorded history. Description matches the events.
Woe #2 (13 mo. War and plague kill 3 billion on earth.) Read Charles Evans Dream about a civil war in America. See John Taylor's Dream about a plague (Ebola symptoms) that devastates the US and the World. See Sarah Menet, Suzanne Freeman, Spencer (VOG), Gayle Smith all see more than one plague killing the masses.
This is the “Abomination of Desolation” as spoken of by Daniel. The Savior is speaking to his disciples about an event from 200 years before him that was an abomination. He says the abomination will happen again (anti-Christ will force them to worship an idol in their temple and Israel will be under seige), at which time they should stand in holy places and flee to the mountains. Revelation 13:14 Matthew 24:15-16. The same pattern is for New Jerusalem too.
Ebola is described as bleeding internally to death. Has a 90 fatality rate. Die within days. 5,000 deaths now. Project 1.4 million by January. Project 5 million before it is contained (if it doesn’t come to America). John Taylor’s dream describes this massive death toll on America’s states, including Utah with a plague that also causes internal bleeding.
See John Taylor's dream, See Dream of Plagues (under book list tab).
Dollar Collapse. Worldwide depression begins. No work, no gas, no travel. Patriarch Charles Evans vision describes this in detail. Civil War in America ensues. Race rioting on a vast scale. See Cardston Prophecy. See Bishop Koyle vision. See Sarah Menet, Julie Rowe and Suzanne Freeman dreams. See George Albert Smith vision "collapse will make the great depression look like a picnic".
When the dollar is collapsed intentionally by New World Order operatives such as Illuminati, Builderberg Group, UN Agenda 21, this will trigger a civil war for 13 months. The New World Order calls for the earth’s population to be reduced to 500,000. We are currently at 8 billion. Ebola and a new strain of small pox has been weaponized and will intentionally be released. Spencer sees the troops inoculated against the plague. See John Taylor vision. See Dream of Plagues vision. Many other dreamers see a civil war and a devastating plague. See George Albert Smith vision "collapse will make the great depression look like a picnic".
Saints begin their trek back to Jackson County, MO. (takes years) Mighty miracles occur. Some get new transfigured bodies to complete this journey. People are raised from the dead. The plague is held back from the saints. A cloak of invisibility is provided for those in tent cities so the troops cannot find them.
VOG, Through the Windows of Life, Dream of Plagues,
This is the time to become “refined” enough to meet the Savior. We must abdicate all physical possessions, we People gather from all over to get to the intermountain region. More groups leave to find the tent cities from the first call out. Violence and chaos are rampant. Must flee by foot, only take what you can carry. No vehicles/gas/trailers available. Patriarch Charles Evans vision describes this in detail. Civil War in America ensues. Race rioting on a vast scale. See Cardston Prophecy. See Bishop Koyle vision. See Sarah Menet, Julie Rowe and Suzanne Freeman dreams.
Foreign troops finally arrive in Utah to help with the earthquake and plague, but martial law is declared instead. No prayers are allowed, no gatherings, no church, no meetings. Temples are closed.
Spencer (VOG), Sarah Menet, Suzanne Freeman, Julie Rowe, Temple Dreamer, Bishop Koyle, George Washington all had dreams/vision of these troops.
America is attacked. No electricity (EMP) from nuclear bombs set off to create the EMP (HAFB is one of the places). The attack is from China (west coast) and Russia (east coast). The UN declares the mid-west (farming communities) as the “world’s land”. See GA Smith vision, Sarah Menet, Patriarch Wolfgram, and all the others talk about this attack.
In his own words, Chinese General: http://www.rense.com/general85/China%27sPlanToConquer.htm
Utah misses the start of this attack because no electricity from the earthquake to announce the news. VOG
All happen in rapid succession:
Gathering in the mountains (call out) in Spring/Summer of 2016 (election year).
Dollar Collapse – September Sarah, Gayle, "10 days before the earthquake"
Jewish Calendar/Rabbi says (2015 stock market crash),
Earthquake – October Bishop Koyle, Gayle, Sarah, (actually use the month "October"), VOG says earthquake is one month before the troops show up.
Presidential Election – NOV (during presidency when first time president is not of European ancestry)
America attacked before new president can take office – Patriarch Wolfgramm, G.A. Smith
Note: "Not of European ancestry was meant to reference "black". Greek ancestry was meant to reference "black". During G.A. Smith's generation, they commonly referred to blacks as "Greeks" as to not be offensive with Negro". However, upon further search, Obama does have Greek ancestry as his ancestors were slave traders from North Africa (Kenya). North Africa was a Greek and Christian culture, and at one time a part of the Roman Empire.
DEC to trigger martial law and allow the UN to implement the New World President (Anti-Christ). Author Avraham Gileadi shared that he is good friends with Spencer (VOG) and will vouch for him. He said Spencer had other visions not recorded in VOG, this was one of them.
Light winter so saints can recover from the earthquake and plague, saints in the mountains are spared. (VOG)
Famine is in full force. Mark of the Beast is instituted. No buying or selling without the chip in your hand. To receive the chip, you must denounce Jesus Christ or else be beheaded. Anti-Christ is at the helm over all nations. Suzanne Freeman, VOG, Sarah Menet, Revelation 13:1-8, 16-18
UN already has someone they are sponsoring and touting as the New World President. His name is Maitreya. He is going around performing miracles on camera. He talks of a New World Order and social justice. He says he is the Messiah of all religions in one. Must read UN Magazine write up:
http://www.share-international.org/maitreya/Ma_main.htm
(Watch his Youtube videos and notice the blind followers comments.)
Israel builds a temple. See notes above on Israel/Jewish people.
Armageddon begins. Revelation 16:14-16
(3 year war – 3rd woe.) Revelation 11:14, Zechariah 11 to 14.
Two prophets killed. Revelation chapter 11.
Mt. of Olives split open. Zechariah 14:1-5
Christ rescues the Jews and teaches them the gospel.
Christ kills the world’s army who went against the Jews.
Christ goes to Adam-ondi-ahman. New Jerusalem is in the process of being built. D&C 107:53-57, D&C 116, Daniel 7:9-14
We must love and share under intense stress. We must rely on God for our every need. We must develop humility and patience before we can qualify to be in the presence of God. Thus, our journey, by foot back to MO. - Through the Windows of Life, Suzanne Freeman.
Lost 10 tribes appear to help with the journey and to fight back the foreign troops. See Cleansing of America, Through the Windows of Life, VOG
Constitution hangs by a thread (America to become a UN country) when the brethren take on the troops with the lost tribes and defeat them. They retreat and America is re-established. George Washington’s Dream sees this defeat. VOG, and Suzanne Freeman.
The Savior comes in from the heavens. The righteous are waiting (LDS and nonLDS) in MO and are lifted up to meet him. This includes those who are resurrected in the morning of the 1st resurrection.
The earth burns to stubble to take out any wicked who are left.
The Millennium is ushered in. Satan is bound for 1,000 years. Satan is release for a small season at the end of the 1,000 years for one final test and then he is bound forever.
Temples are open 24/7 for 1,000 years as people prepare for the final judgment, reconnect family lines, and work on spiritual progression.
Final judgment takes place. The souls who did not come forth in the first resurrection, come forth now.
Assignments are made to the three degrees of glory.
THE MARRIAGE OF (PLURAL) JESUS
Mormon Apostle Orson Hyde made these statements:
"It will be borne in mind that once on a time, there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; . . .no less a person than Jesus Christ was married on that occasion. If he was never married, his intimacy with Mary and Martha, and the other Mary also whom Jesus loved, must have been highly unbecoming and improper to say the least of it."
"I will venture to say that if Jesus Christ were now to pass thought the most pious countries in Christendom with a train of women, such as used to follow him, . . .he would be mobbed, tarred, and feathered, and rode, not on as ass, but on a rail."
"At this doctrine the long-faced hypocrite and the sanctimonious bigot will probably cry, blasphemy! . . . Object not, therefore, too strongly against the marriage of Christ." ( Journal of Discourses, Vol. 4, pages 259-260)
"When Mary of old came to the sepulcher. . .she saw two angels in white. and they said unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? She said unto them, Because they have take away my Lord, OR HUSBAND, and I know not where they have laid him." (Journal of Discourses, Vol. 2, page 210)
In 1853 the following appeared in the Mormon church paper, the Millennial Star:
". . .we apprehend that even greater troubles than these may arise before mankind learn all the particulars of Christ's incarnation-how and by whom he was begotten; the character of the relationships formed by the act; the number of wives and children he had. . ." (The Millennial Star, Vol 15, page 825)
Statement by Brigham Young, second prophet of the LDS church:
"The Scripture says that He, the Lord, came walking in the Temple, with "HIS TRAIN; I do not know who they were, unless his wives and children;" (Journal of Discourses, Vol. 13. page 309).

YOUR PAPER MONEY JUST BECAME WORTHLESS
I cannot believe these jokers.......
Money represents value exchanged for work and goods and services. You cannot devalue that like some kind of cheesy gambling (stock market) debt...... Seriously - stuff like this will fuel the next revolution!!
For those with savings?? Get over it..... They really expect the people to take this sitting down??
Wow.
Here is what got me spun up:
They are getting ready to collapse it and bring in the NWO financial scheme. Not that I am obsessed with my money, or anything - it is a means to an end - but I do not believe in ripping people off just because I can get away with it.....

Here is what got me spun up:
"On Nov. 16, the G20 will implement a new policy that makes bank deposits on par with paper investments, subjecting account holders to declines that one might experience from holding a stock or other security when the next financial banking crisis occurs. Additionally, all member nations of the G20 will immediately submit and pass legislation that will fulfill this program, creating a new paradigm where banks no longer recognize your deposits as money, but as liabilities and securitized capital owned and controlled by the bank or institution."http://www.economicpolicyjournal.com/2014/11/warning-bank-deposits-will-soon-no.html

LDS PROPHETS SPEAK ON A GATHERING/CALLOUT
For my Russesque trolls out there who say there is no backing from the folks at the top of the pyramid, here you go:
Gathering Out of the Saints
Documented Quotes
__________________________________________________________________________________
Elder Oaks in the April 2004 General Conference encouraged all members of the Church throughout the world to "accelerate our own preparation and try to influence the preparation of those around us." The general authorities over the past years have been letting us know that this gathering is coming. Here is what they have said about it:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Elder H. Aldridge (Second Quorum of the Seventy) LDS Business College Devotional, February 8th, 2005
"We must both learn what these signs are and then identify them correctly when they occur. They can and will strengthen our faith in Christ and His prophets, if we know the scriptures. Just as in the days of Noah, a way is already prepared for the escape of the Lord's elect Latter-Day Saints, if they are in tune with His prophets."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Harold B. Lee Conference Report, April 1948
Thus, clearly, the Lord has placed the responsibility for directing the work of gathering in the hands of the leaders of the Church to whom he will reveal his will where and when such gatherings would take place in the future.
It would be well before the frightening events concerning the fulfillment of all God's promises and predictions are upon us, that the Saints in every land prepare themselves and look forward to the instruction that shall come to them from the First Presidency of this Church as to where they shall be gathered and not be disturbed in their feelings until such instruction is given to them as it is revealed by the Lord to the proper authority.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Henry B. Eyring - Raise the Bar (BYU-Idaho Talk - January 2005)
"The giant earthquake, and the tsunami it sent crashing into the coasts around the Indian Ocean, is just the beginning and a part of what is to come, terrible as it was.
You remember the words from the Doctrine and Covenants which now seem so accurate: (he quotes D&C 88:88-91)
Fear shall come upon all people. But you and I know that the Lord has prepared places of safety to which he is eager to guide us....It will be our choice whether or not to move up or stay where we are. But the Lord will invite and guide us upward by the direction of the Holy Ghost....
I did not plan to speak to you about the hard times that are ahead and they are real, and they are coming...."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Joseph Smith The teaching of the prophet Joseph Smith, Section 2, P.71
"...for without Zion, and a place of deliverance, we must fall; because the time is near when the sun will be darkened, and the moon turn to blood, and the stars fall from the heaven, and the earth reel to and fro.
Then, if this is the case, and if we are not sanctified and gathered to the places God has appointed, with all our former professions and our great love for the Bible, we must fall; we cannot stand; we cannot be saved; for God will gather out his saints from the Gentiles, and then comes desolation and destruction, and none can escape except the pure in heart who are gathered."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Joseph Smith DHC 4:272
"In addition to all temporal blessings, there is no other way for the Saints to be saved in these last days, than by gathering...."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Book of Mormon Alma 26:5-7
And they shall be gathered into the garners, that they are not wasted.
Yea, they shall not be beaten down by the storm at the last day; yea, neither shall they be harrowed up by the whirlwinds; but when the storm cometh they shall be gathered together in their place, that the storm cannot penetrate to them; yea, neither shall they be driven with fierce winds whithersoever the enemy listeth to carry them.
But behold, they are in the hands of the Lord of the harvest, and they are his; and he will raise them up at the last day.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
James E. Talmage, Conference Report, October 1921, p.188
"Great and grand as is this people, mighty as are the works that have been accomplished through the blessings of God through his servants in these days, there is too little real prayer among the Latter-day Saints, too many prayerless homes, and hence the spread of spiritual contagion among some of us. Thank the Lord not among many, relatively speaking. I have faith in my people, for I knew that they are the Lord's people, and I am proud to be one of them; but when the cry shall come, as come it shall: "To your tents, O Israel," for there are struggles ahead, the Lord knows where to find those who have been faithful."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Brigham Young, Mosiah Hancock Autobiography, typescript, BYU-S, p.73
"He [President Brigham Young] conversed freely on the situation of the Saints in the mountains, and said that he dreaded the time when the Saints would become popular with the world; for he had seen in sorrow, in a dream, or in dreams, this people clothed in the fashions of Babylon and drinking in the spirit of Babylon until one could hardly tell a Saint from a black-leg. And he felt like shouting, "To your tents, Oh Israel!" because it was the only thing that could keep the people pure."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Heber C. Kimball, Journal of Discourses, Vol.9, p.154, June 19, 1862
This people know enough to be righteous, honest, pure, and virtuous; and those who will not practice that which they know to be good will become habituated to folly and vice, just in the same way that men became habituated to using tobacco, to stealing, drinking, and lying.
"When the time comes that the Lord says, "Arise and to your tents, O Israel;" then men be pure inside and out; they must be for God, or they will have no part in the blessings conferred upon the righteous."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
President Eyring, April 1997 General Conference, "Safety in Counsel"
President Eyring says this in his 1997 General Conference talk called "Safety in Counsel." The church has posted this talk 3 times in the Ensign.
Henry B, Eyring, “Safety in Counsel” June 2008 First Presidency Message
http://lds.org/liahona/2008/06/safet...unsel?lang=eng
Henry B, Eyring, “Finding Safety in Counsel” November 2001 Ensign
http://lds.org/liahona/2001/11/findi...unsel?lang=eng
Henry B, Eyring, “Finding Safety in Counsel” April 1997 General Conference
http://lds.org/ensign/1997/05/findin...unsel?lang=eng
The talk starts out about the warnings of the prophets, standing on safe ground, having listening ears and reaching out to others. The very last paragraph of the talk says:
"We are blessed to live in a time when the priesthood keys are on the earth. We are blessed to know where to look and how to listen for the voice that will fulfill the promise of the Lord that He will gather us to safety. I pray that we will have humble hearts, that we will listen, that we will pray, and that we will wait for the deliverance of the Lord that is sure to come as we are faithful."
Interesting enough, he refers to Haun's Mill in this talk and many other things. I would highly recommend that you carefully read it.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is a list of at least 49 times that the righteous have to leave.

48. And the prophet did send out a letter to the nations calling for the Jews to return to Jerusalem. If they had listened they would have been spared the holocaust.
49. The saints fled from Johnston's Army back in Brigham Young's day.
I would challenge you as you read the scriptures especially the Bible and Book of Mormon to pay attention every time someone is leaving and going to the wilderness or somewhere else to live. Make a note as to who is leaving; it is usually the righteous party who is leaving.
_______________________________________________________________________________
There is also another pattern the Lord has followed in the scriptures. He usually gathers his people out during the spring or the fall and either around or on the holy days. All the holy days occur during the spring (March -May) and during the fall (Sept - Nov.) time. For example, the Israelites left on the night of passover which is during the springtime. They were also only given a 72 hour time frame to escape. Keep in mind that general conference is in the spring and in the fall as well. And, the solaces within the universe always occur during this time too. Here is a thread about it.
President Hinckley's General Conference talk of October 2001 (Living the Fullness of Times), he told the church "The Vision of Joel has been fulfilled."
Joel 2:28 And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions.
Joel 2:29 "And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out my spirit."
This happened in the New Testament as well when Agabus prophesied of a coming famine that would be especially hard on the members in Jerusalem. Now, Peter and Paul did not receive this information. At the time, Peter was at the head of the church and Paul was an apostle. The members heeded his forewarning by preparing and sending invaluable aid to those members in Jerusalem by the hand of Paul and Barnabus. Agubus was called a prophet, not because of his church calling (which we do not know what that was) but because he had the gift of prophesy. He also later prophesied of Paul’s imprisonment and death. He was not rebuked but was believed and sustained by them.
Many people are having visions and dreams about this gathering that is coming. Here is just a brief summary of what they are seeing:
They see a call coming from the prophet to the bishops and through the proper priesthood channels letting you know it is time to leave. Then, the trucks come to pick up the food storage in the early hours of the night. After the food and possibly supplies are loaded onto the trucks. Then, you are told where to go. Now, every area may be different so some may leave in individual cars, or meet and leave in groups, caravans and so forth. I'm just giving you a general overview of what they are seeing.

If you look at the 2010 March Ensign page 58, it kind of gives a hint to the gathering coming. The article is called "Safe In His Hand." Notice what the article says at the top of the page. It says:
God warned Noah of the flood and told the righteous how to escape. God told Joseph in Egypt of the coming famine and how to prepare. That same god speaks today through His prophets, giving counsel that brings peace and safety when followed.
Here is the link to the article on the church website. I would recommend you read the whole thing. http://lds.org/ensign/2010/03/safe-in-his-hand?lang=eng
This original article was only half of a page in the actual 2010 March Ensign but the church has added a historic timeline and a whole bunch of preparedness quotes from all the prophets. I would recommend you take a look at the quote from President Hunter that is posted with the article on the church website. It says:
“Knowing what we know, and living as we are supposed to live, there really is no place, no excuse, for pessimism and despair....
“I promise you in the name of the Lord whose servant I am that God will always protect and care for his people. We will have our difficulties the way every generation and people have had difficulties. But with the gospel of Jesus Christ, you have every hope and promise and reassurance. The Lord has power over his Saints and will always prepare places of peace, defense, and safety for his people. When we have faith in God we can hope for a better world—for us personally, and for all mankind.”
President Howard W. Hunter, “An Anchor to the Souls of Men,” Ensign, Oct. 1993, 70.

On September 12, 2010 in a 150+ Stakes in a Provo Stake Conference which involved over a half million members. Elder Holland gave a talk about the faith of the pioneers who were called by the prophet to move and settle new areas south of Salt Lake and other states. He spoke of 2 specific examples of early pioneers who were called by a prophet to move and settle into new areas outside of Salt Lake. He went through their tremendous struggles and difficulties that they had to endure. He says:
"The fundamental driving force in these stories is faith. Rock ribbed, furnace refined, event filled, spiritually girded faith that this is the truth...the very church and kingdom of God on earth. And, when you're called, you go. Build your faith so you have a reservoir to call upon when tasks, challenges and demands come."
Elder Packer in the same conference said that "Elder Holland and others talked about the pioneer days. They had the easy part. From now on it’s going to be different and it’s going to be rougher...when you think of the hole in the rock or rocky ridge, or the other places where the pioneers served. In many ways, their part was easier than our part is going to be." The speakers at this conference were Elder Packer, Elder Holland, Elder Snow and Sister Beck.

"I have been praying for some guidance on tent cities. My answer came as I was serving. I was preparing to train several new Relief Society Presidencies and went to the LDS website to download some training videos. I had attended these training sessions for Stake Relief Society Presidencies with Sister Julie Beck and was happy to see them available for us to use or for that matter any one on lds.org to view. But there was one video on Self Reliance that I hadn't seen before. I began playing it and was surprised to hear her talk about TENTS! The video is inspiring and gives you such hope for the hard times because the Lord is planning for us if we just do our little part (which seems to include every family having a tent). I highly recommend you watch it as a testimony how we don't need to be scared because the Lord has always taken care of his people who have been faithful.
http://lds.org/pa/display/0,17884,8731-1,00.html then click on the "Self Reliance" video near the bottom.
OR: http://broadcast.lds.org/relief-soci...e-768k-eng.mp4"
Here is exactly what Julie Beck says when she is talking about tents in the "Self Reliance" links:
"I have a sense and a feeling as we have watched some of these disasters in the world, that this is a time for us to learn and prepare from these experiences. Sister Thompson gave a testimony of that, and the preparation happens in our own homes. There are not enough tents in the world to furnish every person with a tent unless the members of the church have a tent in their own homes...a simple thing like that. And then the storehouse is pressed down, heaped over and running over in our own homes. Some of you have student apartments, how prepared are you? If an earthquake or economic disaster happened, would you have enough water to drink for 24 hours? Would you be able to get by until help could come to you. Those are the kind of the things we need to be thinking about in our day and time, the Lord expects us to do our little part and then He can bring on the miracles and then we don't need to fear."...
_________________________________________________________________________________
Cleon Skousen in his book called "Cleansing of America." On page 5, it says:
"This last phrase, "I will bring the fullness of my gospel from among them," has always meant removing God's people and especially the missionaries from among them. Once God has gathered out his people from the midst of the wicked, God's cleansing will be imminent."
Then, he goes on to talk about the plagues and scourges that will come. You may want to read pages 5-20.
When a person understands the scriptures that talk about the last-days scenarios, they know that the Lord in control. The destruction of the wicked, which is carried about by a very wicked and conceited man is the Lord’s left hand in fulfilling the promise of destruction of the wicked in the last days. He acts under the Lord’s direction…while thinking he is doing it himself. But before the work of destruction takes place, the Lord (through His Prophet, who is the Lord’s right hand) leads His righteous covenant people out on an exodus - because he has promised protection to those who have kept their covenant.
This is what the Book of Isaiah teaches us. The destruction is going to happen. There is nothing we can do to prevent it - short of converting the world. But the Lord has promised to save his covenant people. In that process, the righteous will be tried, tested and refined - thus preparing them for the 2nd Coming and to rise up to a higher spiritual level - and become a Zion people. The chapters of Isaiah that appear in the Book of Mormon teach all about this - especially the 1st chapters of Isaiah that appear in the B of M (Isaiah 40, or 1st Nephi 20).
There are many indicators throughout Isaiah that tell the story of the time of trouble, and time of destruction -- and of the exodus that takes place just before the destruction. The essence of this teaching is that the Lord is bound to protect His people who have kept their covenants -- thus He will lead them out on an exodus, just before the destruction. Isaiah is very impressed with what happened to King Hezekiah -- and he structures his entire book around this central idea. In chapter 37, the Assyrians surround Jerusalem with their army’s and threaten to destroy the city. Isaiah tells righteous King Hezekiah not to worry. During the night, an angel kills all 185,000 soldiers. The reason: the people have fulfilled the terms of the Davidic covenant, and the Lord was bound to protect them. Isaiah included this story in his book to show that the Lord really will save his covenant people, by leading them out on an Exodus prior to the destruction.
All the scriptoriums who really study the scriptures will tell you that the Lord will gather out his people. It is a common pattern that the Lord uses all throughout time and scripture. The Lord NEVER makes the wicked leave. It is usually ALWAYS the righteous who have to leave. (only 1 time did the righteous not have to leave which is in the Book of Mormon during the 3 days of darkness just before Christ appeared) But, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER HAVE THE WICKED LEFT.

Elder Jeffrey R. Holland, April 2011 General Conference, "An Ensign to the Nations" pg. 113 May Ensign
In the 2011 spring conference President Holland in the Sunday afternoon session 2nd to last talk said:
"Brothers and sisters, in general conference we offer our testimonies in conjunction with other testimonies that will come, because one way or another God will have his voice heard. "I sent you out to testify and warn the people," the Lord has said to his prophets.
"And after your testimony cometh the testimony of earthquakes,....of thundering,....lightnings, and....tempests, and the voice of the waves of the sea heaving themselves beyond their bounds..."
"And angels shall...[cry] with a loud voice, sounding the trump of God."
Now, these mortal angels come to this pulpit have, each in his or her own way, sounded "the trump of God." Every sermon given is always, by definition, both a testimony of love and a warning, even as nature herself will testify with love and a warning in the last days."
___________________________________________________________________________________
Pay attention to what the general authorities say about the priesthood protecting you and your families in the last days. For example, Elder Packer in the April 2010 General Conference gave a talk called “The Power of the Priesthood.” This is in the May 2010 Ensign on page 9 and he says “There will be times when all that stands as a shield between your family and the adversary’s mischief will be that power.”
Also, let's look to the scriptures on being prepared. The parable of the ten virgins is repeatedly used and referred to over and over again by the prophets and apostles. What was the difference between the two groups? One group was prepared and the other group was not. It was that simple.
The group that was prepared moved on to meet and be with the Lord. And, the other group did not which became a brutal reality to their disobedience. We have had over 100+ years to prepare and have basic food storage for ourselves and our families. So, don't be surprised if food storage is used as a criterion to being gathered out because either you have been obedient or you have not. You can bluff your way through a temple recommend but you can't bluff your way through food storage.
The scriptures also say that the Lord shut the door on Noah’s Ark. (Genesis 7:16)
“And they that went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God had commanded him: and the LORD shut him in.”
This means Noah couldn't have opened the door if he wanted to because he did not know how it got closed. By the Lord gathering out his saints with food storage, it keeps them relatively safe and free from the hands of others who did not and sharing with those who did. Possibly, living some form of the law of consecration.
Also, keep in mind that during Noah’s time it had never rained. The mist from the ground always watered the vegetation. The same thing applies to our day. This country has never been without any food. When there is no food, ones entire sociology changes to only self survival and will do unspeakable things to satisfy their hunger even cannibalism which will happen.
On the front cover of the March 2009 Ensign; there was a picture of one of the Ten Virgins filling her lamp with oil. In the September 2009 Ensign on page 66, there is an entire article to newlyweds to get their food storage in and suggestions on how to do this. They are being encouraged to get their 3 month supply of food. If you are paying attention, you can quietly see them telling us to get it in. There was an article in the January, March, July, September and November 2009 Ensigns. In 2010, there were articles in the January & June issues. In 2011, there are articles in the March, June & September issues.
Not only did the ten virgins have a criterion of having oil in their lamps, the pioneers did as well. Joseph Smith told the saints of his time to store 18 months worth of food and many did not listen. Brigham Young not only told them to store food but gave them a list of items that they were to have.
A criterion was placed on the first group of pioneers that left with Brigham Young. They had to have all the items on the list that he gave them and their 18 months of stored food.
Those who had been obedient left with Brigham Young which was the first group of pioneers. You hardly ever hear about their hardships because not only were they prepared but traveled in relative peace and safety. They only had a few casualties. In contrast, you sure do hear about all the other groups that left afterwards because they weren't prepared.
I don’t have the exact quote yet. But Joseph Smith says that the Lord will come to his people in peace which is in the beginning of the seventh seal and he comes to the world in wrath which is at the end of the seventh seal. From what I know, he will come to his people sometime after they get gathered out and this country is being or has been cleansed.
Then, the righteous that make it will go forth and spread the gospel to the world at large. And, the Lord does a final cleansing to the world in wrath as he introduces himself to the world at his 2nd coming. Our visit from the Lord (members of the church) and the worlds visit from the lord are two completely separate events.
I would highly recommend that you pray about these things for yourself and do your own research. Here are some resources that you can look at and use. I promise as time goes on you may begin to run into others who will build upon this information as well.
“It is time to get our houses in order….” “There is a PORTENT of stormy weather ahead to which we had better give heed.” President Gordon B. Hinckley in November of 1998
PORTENT STORM= an indication of something momentous about to happen which is threatening and dire. A sign of a coming calamity.
Keep in mind that President Benson in his General Conference Report in October 1987 said "I ask you earnestly, have you provided for your family a year's supply of food, clothing, and where possible fuel? The revelation to produce and store food may be as essential to our temporal welfare today as boarding the ark was to the people in the days of Noah."
This came from this site. I recommend going there to see how well you are set up:

Gathering Out of the Saints
Documented Quotes
__________________________________________________________________________________
Elder Oaks in the April 2004 General Conference encouraged all members of the Church throughout the world to "accelerate our own preparation and try to influence the preparation of those around us." The general authorities over the past years have been letting us know that this gathering is coming. Here is what they have said about it:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Elder H. Aldridge (Second Quorum of the Seventy) LDS Business College Devotional, February 8th, 2005
"We must both learn what these signs are and then identify them correctly when they occur. They can and will strengthen our faith in Christ and His prophets, if we know the scriptures. Just as in the days of Noah, a way is already prepared for the escape of the Lord's elect Latter-Day Saints, if they are in tune with His prophets."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Harold B. Lee Conference Report, April 1948
Thus, clearly, the Lord has placed the responsibility for directing the work of gathering in the hands of the leaders of the Church to whom he will reveal his will where and when such gatherings would take place in the future.
It would be well before the frightening events concerning the fulfillment of all God's promises and predictions are upon us, that the Saints in every land prepare themselves and look forward to the instruction that shall come to them from the First Presidency of this Church as to where they shall be gathered and not be disturbed in their feelings until such instruction is given to them as it is revealed by the Lord to the proper authority.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Henry B. Eyring - Raise the Bar (BYU-Idaho Talk - January 2005)
"The giant earthquake, and the tsunami it sent crashing into the coasts around the Indian Ocean, is just the beginning and a part of what is to come, terrible as it was.
You remember the words from the Doctrine and Covenants which now seem so accurate: (he quotes D&C 88:88-91)
Fear shall come upon all people. But you and I know that the Lord has prepared places of safety to which he is eager to guide us....It will be our choice whether or not to move up or stay where we are. But the Lord will invite and guide us upward by the direction of the Holy Ghost....
I did not plan to speak to you about the hard times that are ahead and they are real, and they are coming...."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Joseph Smith The teaching of the prophet Joseph Smith, Section 2, P.71
"...for without Zion, and a place of deliverance, we must fall; because the time is near when the sun will be darkened, and the moon turn to blood, and the stars fall from the heaven, and the earth reel to and fro.
Then, if this is the case, and if we are not sanctified and gathered to the places God has appointed, with all our former professions and our great love for the Bible, we must fall; we cannot stand; we cannot be saved; for God will gather out his saints from the Gentiles, and then comes desolation and destruction, and none can escape except the pure in heart who are gathered."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Joseph Smith DHC 4:272
"In addition to all temporal blessings, there is no other way for the Saints to be saved in these last days, than by gathering...."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Book of Mormon Alma 26:5-7
And they shall be gathered into the garners, that they are not wasted.
Yea, they shall not be beaten down by the storm at the last day; yea, neither shall they be harrowed up by the whirlwinds; but when the storm cometh they shall be gathered together in their place, that the storm cannot penetrate to them; yea, neither shall they be driven with fierce winds whithersoever the enemy listeth to carry them.
But behold, they are in the hands of the Lord of the harvest, and they are his; and he will raise them up at the last day.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
James E. Talmage, Conference Report, October 1921, p.188
"Great and grand as is this people, mighty as are the works that have been accomplished through the blessings of God through his servants in these days, there is too little real prayer among the Latter-day Saints, too many prayerless homes, and hence the spread of spiritual contagion among some of us. Thank the Lord not among many, relatively speaking. I have faith in my people, for I knew that they are the Lord's people, and I am proud to be one of them; but when the cry shall come, as come it shall: "To your tents, O Israel," for there are struggles ahead, the Lord knows where to find those who have been faithful."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Brigham Young, Mosiah Hancock Autobiography, typescript, BYU-S, p.73
"He [President Brigham Young] conversed freely on the situation of the Saints in the mountains, and said that he dreaded the time when the Saints would become popular with the world; for he had seen in sorrow, in a dream, or in dreams, this people clothed in the fashions of Babylon and drinking in the spirit of Babylon until one could hardly tell a Saint from a black-leg. And he felt like shouting, "To your tents, Oh Israel!" because it was the only thing that could keep the people pure."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Heber C. Kimball, Journal of Discourses, Vol.9, p.154, June 19, 1862
This people know enough to be righteous, honest, pure, and virtuous; and those who will not practice that which they know to be good will become habituated to folly and vice, just in the same way that men became habituated to using tobacco, to stealing, drinking, and lying.
"When the time comes that the Lord says, "Arise and to your tents, O Israel;" then men be pure inside and out; they must be for God, or they will have no part in the blessings conferred upon the righteous."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
President Eyring, April 1997 General Conference, "Safety in Counsel"
President Eyring says this in his 1997 General Conference talk called "Safety in Counsel." The church has posted this talk 3 times in the Ensign.
Henry B, Eyring, “Safety in Counsel” June 2008 First Presidency Message
http://lds.org/liahona/2008/06/safet...unsel?lang=eng
Henry B, Eyring, “Finding Safety in Counsel” November 2001 Ensign
http://lds.org/liahona/2001/11/findi...unsel?lang=eng
Henry B, Eyring, “Finding Safety in Counsel” April 1997 General Conference
http://lds.org/ensign/1997/05/findin...unsel?lang=eng
The talk starts out about the warnings of the prophets, standing on safe ground, having listening ears and reaching out to others. The very last paragraph of the talk says:
"We are blessed to live in a time when the priesthood keys are on the earth. We are blessed to know where to look and how to listen for the voice that will fulfill the promise of the Lord that He will gather us to safety. I pray that we will have humble hearts, that we will listen, that we will pray, and that we will wait for the deliverance of the Lord that is sure to come as we are faithful."
Interesting enough, he refers to Haun's Mill in this talk and many other things. I would highly recommend that you carefully read it.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is a list of at least 49 times that the righteous have to leave.

33. Father Smith's life was in jeapordy. He was warned to flee but didn't leave soon enough and was thrown into prison where he spent a month. After his release he immediately moved his family to Waterloo, NY and most of the Smith family would never see Palmyra again. "Life of Joseph Smith by his Mother"

48. And the prophet did send out a letter to the nations calling for the Jews to return to Jerusalem. If they had listened they would have been spared the holocaust.
49. The saints fled from Johnston's Army back in Brigham Young's day.
I would challenge you as you read the scriptures especially the Bible and Book of Mormon to pay attention every time someone is leaving and going to the wilderness or somewhere else to live. Make a note as to who is leaving; it is usually the righteous party who is leaving.
_______________________________________________________________________________
There is also another pattern the Lord has followed in the scriptures. He usually gathers his people out during the spring or the fall and either around or on the holy days. All the holy days occur during the spring (March -May) and during the fall (Sept - Nov.) time. For example, the Israelites left on the night of passover which is during the springtime. They were also only given a 72 hour time frame to escape. Keep in mind that general conference is in the spring and in the fall as well. And, the solaces within the universe always occur during this time too. Here is a thread about it.
President Hinckley's General Conference talk of October 2001 (Living the Fullness of Times), he told the church "The Vision of Joel has been fulfilled."
Joel 2:28 And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions.
Joel 2:29 "And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out my spirit."
This happened in the New Testament as well when Agabus prophesied of a coming famine that would be especially hard on the members in Jerusalem. Now, Peter and Paul did not receive this information. At the time, Peter was at the head of the church and Paul was an apostle. The members heeded his forewarning by preparing and sending invaluable aid to those members in Jerusalem by the hand of Paul and Barnabus. Agubus was called a prophet, not because of his church calling (which we do not know what that was) but because he had the gift of prophesy. He also later prophesied of Paul’s imprisonment and death. He was not rebuked but was believed and sustained by them.
Many people are having visions and dreams about this gathering that is coming. Here is just a brief summary of what they are seeing:
They see a call coming from the prophet to the bishops and through the proper priesthood channels letting you know it is time to leave. Then, the trucks come to pick up the food storage in the early hours of the night. After the food and possibly supplies are loaded onto the trucks. Then, you are told where to go. Now, every area may be different so some may leave in individual cars, or meet and leave in groups, caravans and so forth. I'm just giving you a general overview of what they are seeing.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you look at the 2010 March Ensign page 58, it kind of gives a hint to the gathering coming. The article is called "Safe In His Hand." Notice what the article says at the top of the page. It says:
God warned Noah of the flood and told the righteous how to escape. God told Joseph in Egypt of the coming famine and how to prepare. That same god speaks today through His prophets, giving counsel that brings peace and safety when followed.
Here is the link to the article on the church website. I would recommend you read the whole thing. http://lds.org/ensign/2010/03/safe-in-his-hand?lang=eng
This original article was only half of a page in the actual 2010 March Ensign but the church has added a historic timeline and a whole bunch of preparedness quotes from all the prophets. I would recommend you take a look at the quote from President Hunter that is posted with the article on the church website. It says:
“Knowing what we know, and living as we are supposed to live, there really is no place, no excuse, for pessimism and despair....
“I promise you in the name of the Lord whose servant I am that God will always protect and care for his people. We will have our difficulties the way every generation and people have had difficulties. But with the gospel of Jesus Christ, you have every hope and promise and reassurance. The Lord has power over his Saints and will always prepare places of peace, defense, and safety for his people. When we have faith in God we can hope for a better world—for us personally, and for all mankind.”
President Howard W. Hunter, “An Anchor to the Souls of Men,” Ensign, Oct. 1993, 70.

On September 12, 2010 in a 150+ Stakes in a Provo Stake Conference which involved over a half million members. Elder Holland gave a talk about the faith of the pioneers who were called by the prophet to move and settle new areas south of Salt Lake and other states. He spoke of 2 specific examples of early pioneers who were called by a prophet to move and settle into new areas outside of Salt Lake. He went through their tremendous struggles and difficulties that they had to endure. He says:
"The fundamental driving force in these stories is faith. Rock ribbed, furnace refined, event filled, spiritually girded faith that this is the truth...the very church and kingdom of God on earth. And, when you're called, you go. Build your faith so you have a reservoir to call upon when tasks, challenges and demands come."
Elder Packer in the same conference said that "Elder Holland and others talked about the pioneer days. They had the easy part. From now on it’s going to be different and it’s going to be rougher...when you think of the hole in the rock or rocky ridge, or the other places where the pioneers served. In many ways, their part was easier than our part is going to be." The speakers at this conference were Elder Packer, Elder Holland, Elder Snow and Sister Beck.

Here is exactly what Julie Beck says when she is talking about tents in the "Self Reliance" links:
"I have a sense and a feeling as we have watched some of these disasters in the world, that this is a time for us to learn and prepare from these experiences. Sister Thompson gave a testimony of that, and the preparation happens in our own homes. There are not enough tents in the world to furnish every person with a tent unless the members of the church have a tent in their own homes...a simple thing like that. And then the storehouse is pressed down, heaped over and running over in our own homes. Some of you have student apartments, how prepared are you? If an earthquake or economic disaster happened, would you have enough water to drink for 24 hours? Would you be able to get by until help could come to you. Those are the kind of the things we need to be thinking about in our day and time, the Lord expects us to do our little part and then He can bring on the miracles and then we don't need to fear."...

Cleon Skousen in his book called "Cleansing of America." On page 5, it says:
"This last phrase, "I will bring the fullness of my gospel from among them," has always meant removing God's people and especially the missionaries from among them. Once God has gathered out his people from the midst of the wicked, God's cleansing will be imminent."
Then, he goes on to talk about the plagues and scourges that will come. You may want to read pages 5-20.
When a person understands the scriptures that talk about the last-days scenarios, they know that the Lord in control. The destruction of the wicked, which is carried about by a very wicked and conceited man is the Lord’s left hand in fulfilling the promise of destruction of the wicked in the last days. He acts under the Lord’s direction…while thinking he is doing it himself. But before the work of destruction takes place, the Lord (through His Prophet, who is the Lord’s right hand) leads His righteous covenant people out on an exodus - because he has promised protection to those who have kept their covenant.
This is what the Book of Isaiah teaches us. The destruction is going to happen. There is nothing we can do to prevent it - short of converting the world. But the Lord has promised to save his covenant people. In that process, the righteous will be tried, tested and refined - thus preparing them for the 2nd Coming and to rise up to a higher spiritual level - and become a Zion people. The chapters of Isaiah that appear in the Book of Mormon teach all about this - especially the 1st chapters of Isaiah that appear in the B of M (Isaiah 40, or 1st Nephi 20).
There are many indicators throughout Isaiah that tell the story of the time of trouble, and time of destruction -- and of the exodus that takes place just before the destruction. The essence of this teaching is that the Lord is bound to protect His people who have kept their covenants -- thus He will lead them out on an exodus, just before the destruction. Isaiah is very impressed with what happened to King Hezekiah -- and he structures his entire book around this central idea. In chapter 37, the Assyrians surround Jerusalem with their army’s and threaten to destroy the city. Isaiah tells righteous King Hezekiah not to worry. During the night, an angel kills all 185,000 soldiers. The reason: the people have fulfilled the terms of the Davidic covenant, and the Lord was bound to protect them. Isaiah included this story in his book to show that the Lord really will save his covenant people, by leading them out on an Exodus prior to the destruction.
All the scriptoriums who really study the scriptures will tell you that the Lord will gather out his people. It is a common pattern that the Lord uses all throughout time and scripture. The Lord NEVER makes the wicked leave. It is usually ALWAYS the righteous who have to leave. (only 1 time did the righteous not have to leave which is in the Book of Mormon during the 3 days of darkness just before Christ appeared) But, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER HAVE THE WICKED LEFT.

Elder Jeffrey R. Holland, April 2011 General Conference, "An Ensign to the Nations" pg. 113 May Ensign
In the 2011 spring conference President Holland in the Sunday afternoon session 2nd to last talk said:
"Brothers and sisters, in general conference we offer our testimonies in conjunction with other testimonies that will come, because one way or another God will have his voice heard. "I sent you out to testify and warn the people," the Lord has said to his prophets.
"And after your testimony cometh the testimony of earthquakes,....of thundering,....lightnings, and....tempests, and the voice of the waves of the sea heaving themselves beyond their bounds..."
"And angels shall...[cry] with a loud voice, sounding the trump of God."
Now, these mortal angels come to this pulpit have, each in his or her own way, sounded "the trump of God." Every sermon given is always, by definition, both a testimony of love and a warning, even as nature herself will testify with love and a warning in the last days."
___________________________________________________________________________________
Pay attention to what the general authorities say about the priesthood protecting you and your families in the last days. For example, Elder Packer in the April 2010 General Conference gave a talk called “The Power of the Priesthood.” This is in the May 2010 Ensign on page 9 and he says “There will be times when all that stands as a shield between your family and the adversary’s mischief will be that power.”
Also, let's look to the scriptures on being prepared. The parable of the ten virgins is repeatedly used and referred to over and over again by the prophets and apostles. What was the difference between the two groups? One group was prepared and the other group was not. It was that simple.
The group that was prepared moved on to meet and be with the Lord. And, the other group did not which became a brutal reality to their disobedience. We have had over 100+ years to prepare and have basic food storage for ourselves and our families. So, don't be surprised if food storage is used as a criterion to being gathered out because either you have been obedient or you have not. You can bluff your way through a temple recommend but you can't bluff your way through food storage.
The scriptures also say that the Lord shut the door on Noah’s Ark. (Genesis 7:16)
“And they that went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God had commanded him: and the LORD shut him in.”
This means Noah couldn't have opened the door if he wanted to because he did not know how it got closed. By the Lord gathering out his saints with food storage, it keeps them relatively safe and free from the hands of others who did not and sharing with those who did. Possibly, living some form of the law of consecration.
Also, keep in mind that during Noah’s time it had never rained. The mist from the ground always watered the vegetation. The same thing applies to our day. This country has never been without any food. When there is no food, ones entire sociology changes to only self survival and will do unspeakable things to satisfy their hunger even cannibalism which will happen.
On the front cover of the March 2009 Ensign; there was a picture of one of the Ten Virgins filling her lamp with oil. In the September 2009 Ensign on page 66, there is an entire article to newlyweds to get their food storage in and suggestions on how to do this. They are being encouraged to get their 3 month supply of food. If you are paying attention, you can quietly see them telling us to get it in. There was an article in the January, March, July, September and November 2009 Ensigns. In 2010, there were articles in the January & June issues. In 2011, there are articles in the March, June & September issues.
Not only did the ten virgins have a criterion of having oil in their lamps, the pioneers did as well. Joseph Smith told the saints of his time to store 18 months worth of food and many did not listen. Brigham Young not only told them to store food but gave them a list of items that they were to have.
A criterion was placed on the first group of pioneers that left with Brigham Young. They had to have all the items on the list that he gave them and their 18 months of stored food.
Those who had been obedient left with Brigham Young which was the first group of pioneers. You hardly ever hear about their hardships because not only were they prepared but traveled in relative peace and safety. They only had a few casualties. In contrast, you sure do hear about all the other groups that left afterwards because they weren't prepared.
I don’t have the exact quote yet. But Joseph Smith says that the Lord will come to his people in peace which is in the beginning of the seventh seal and he comes to the world in wrath which is at the end of the seventh seal. From what I know, he will come to his people sometime after they get gathered out and this country is being or has been cleansed.
Then, the righteous that make it will go forth and spread the gospel to the world at large. And, the Lord does a final cleansing to the world in wrath as he introduces himself to the world at his 2nd coming. Our visit from the Lord (members of the church) and the worlds visit from the lord are two completely separate events.
I would highly recommend that you pray about these things for yourself and do your own research. Here are some resources that you can look at and use. I promise as time goes on you may begin to run into others who will build upon this information as well.
“It is time to get our houses in order….” “There is a PORTENT of stormy weather ahead to which we had better give heed.” President Gordon B. Hinckley in November of 1998
PORTENT STORM= an indication of something momentous about to happen which is threatening and dire. A sign of a coming calamity.
Keep in mind that President Benson in his General Conference Report in October 1987 said "I ask you earnestly, have you provided for your family a year's supply of food, clothing, and where possible fuel? The revelation to produce and store food may be as essential to our temporal welfare today as boarding the ark was to the people in the days of Noah."
This came from this site. I recommend going there to see how well you are set up:
