Interesting stuff about the timing of all these things that are happening including the causing of the sacrifice to cease:

Remember that this already did happen exactly seven years ago when the sacrifice was ceased in 2013 when Obama (obamanation desolation, a gay man) ascended temple mount in Jerusalem and subsequently, the Samaritans cut the sacrifice for the first time in thousands of years.
In the October 2019 conference, Pres Nelson invited us to read D&C 84. When the revelation was given in 1832, it listed many of the duties of the elders and happenings coming in the future.
ReplyDeleteStarting in verse 45, the state of the world is revealed and the duty of the elders of the church to proclaim the gospel is stated. Jumping to the end of the duties, in verses 96-97, the Lord reveals what happens to those who do not receive the gospel. The world will be scourged and plagues shall go forth and shall not be taken. Continuing on to verse 98, the Lord then talks about all who REMAIN AFTER the plagues, that they shall be filled with the knowledge of the Lord, and the new song of the redemption of Zion is sung.
I believe we are currently living in verse 97 of this section. Here are a few of the outbreaks we've had recently: Swine Flu (2009-2010), Ebloa (2014), Zika (2015-2016), Measles (2019), and Coronavirus (2020).
Obviously, verse 98 hasn't occurred yet, so his work is not completed and the plagues must/will continue. Unfortunately, I believe they are going to get worse. In order to get to the point revealed in verse 98, the wicked must either humbled to repent or be removed from the earth. Ultimately, being filled with a knowledge of the Lord, sounds like the millennium/Second Coming to me.
Interestingly enough, in this section, nothing else is revealed to occur between the plagues and world wide knowledge of our Lord. So it seems they continue to the very last day.
But, we are close. We are in the last days. Just as many have seen in visions of the plagues and destructions, we are living in those times. Buckle up, rough times are still to come, but glorious times await the faithful.
