WHEN DO YOU MOURN AND WHEN DO YOU ACCEPT GOD'S JUDGMENTS?

Well, yet another controversial piece here.

There were two events that have come to the front and center here recently.  One was the gunning down of some guy in Provo, UT (of all places) who apparently was a sniper (probably in the military) and who did own a rifle and apparently did have a ghillie suit (so his flippant online comments could have been construed as a credible threat).  A guy who apparently went to church on Sunday (and I am guessing is LDS and probably holds a fringe attitude, as I do), but apparently willing to act out on it.  Probably a guy who is fed up with what our current prez is doing to what was once a great nation and a candle in a prominent spot on the world stage.  One that used to be worthy of emulation by all - not because it was perfect, but because it had enough good things going for it to be copied by other aspiring players the world over.  One that has been hijacked by corruption and specifically by the gadiantons.  One that fits the bill of Babylon, as defined in Revelations, and whose burning and ultimate destruction will occur within an hour.  One whose filth and corruption is now being dispersed worldwide in the form of pornography, child trafficking, perverse film and "arts" and so much else and a useless and enslaving form of fractional banking that enslaves the average person, while enriching the "elites" who control the system from the top, while bleeding off the life energy of those at the bottom.  NOT the Millennial model in any way, shape or form.

And, if you disagree with any of it, you are silenced, marginalized and even killed for those views.  My guess is that this guy was a pretty regular guy, but was probably mentally imbalanced a bit by all the crap he sees around him.  Hopefully, they do not pin him as a "Trumper", which will just add fuel to the lefties out there pushing the violent narrative...  I mourn for that guy and his family.  It sounds like his daughter was shell-shocked over the fact that her dad was gunned down by federales over a stupid online comment.  Had he actually left his house and tried to back that stupid comment up?  Yep, for now, there is due process and he would have crossed a line.  Long-term, in a rational way, I know that the only person who will be able to effect change is the Lord.  All of these parasites and malcreants that infest the swamps of DC will be brought to naught.  And it likely will be by another nation (just as a wicked Israel was brought under the yoke of bondage by Babylon and then again the Romans, etc, when they refused to act in good principle (killing the very Son of God would fit that definition in the extreme...).

Likely Russia will pounce on the USA and make it humble suddenly, here shortly for our sins of pride, arrogance and Imperialism.  The world is quickly catching on to the scam - as we are witnessing in Africa and in other areas.  The day of the Bretton-Woods, petro-dollar dominance is over.  A war is going to have to be provoked in order to cover up that scam - and even other scams such as the pharmakeia scam.  They are becoming too numerous to list - and when they cannot be all tamped down, extreme measures will be taken to keep the lid on.  Simple history repeating itself.  When the murder of world leaders that oppose your scam reaches a fever pitch (Quito, Ecuador is the latest), then the people begin to see it for what it is and they rebel and the tide cannot be reversed, because the human spirit ultimately demands freedom of conscience as the desire for life is over-ridden by a God-given desire for Liberty).  Thus the phrase, "Give me Liberty, or give me Death."  Basic stuff here.

Now for Maui...  I have a classmate over there.  One of the more beautiful women I have ever known personally.  Her boutique and home did not burn - and I am happy for her.  I think she is a relatively good woman and I would be sad for her.  As it is, it will be years before that community recovers from this tragedy.  The drummer for Fleetwood Mac had his waterfront restaurant burn to the ground.  Apparently dozens of people missing.  It may end up being hundreds.  Worse than the Cali fires that burned out a set of twins that I graduated with who are part of the Freedom movement and ran a national radio broadcast (they relocated to Texas after the fires).

BUT, the bigger picture still rattles around in my head.  If Hawaii was the liberal bastion that approved the first LGBT laws in the USA (which the Church poured millions into fighting against, before falling back to Cali and fighting over Prop 38 on the mainland).  And then the eventual over running of the land of perversion of God's most sacred laws and covenants with the re-definition of marriage.  So, if we have contemporary prophecies by a prophetess in NZ stating that a wave will come from the north and devastate the islands due to their stance on marriage (and the subsequent persecution of those who maintain traditional views), and Iohanni Wolfgramm and others warning that destruction will come upon the wicked in the islands if they do not repent.  Then, I add my voice of warning that these things will come about and have to ask if I should loft petitions for protections for a (generally) wicked place, or do I ask that the innocent and worthy be spared only?  I think the latter.  What Christians (who had fled Jerusalem in 68 or 69AD, prior to the Abomination Desolation) would have offered a prayer of protection over Jerusalem, a city that "condemnest the Prophets" to death, including Christ?  It would seem illogical and unreasonable to do so.

So, I am a little torn here.  Do I sing the phrase, "God bless America" in those patriotic hymns any more?  In a prayer over the pulpit, or in a testimony or talk (which I haved not been invited in years to give, likely because I let my fringe thoughts and views be known), would I ever ask God to "bless this great land?".  Nope.  In a prayer a few Sundays ago, someone asked for the rain to finally come (generally over our area) and I had to mutter under my breath that it come (upon those who are striving) and not upon the wicked in this land.  The farmers and ranchers are generally good people...

At what point are we fighting against God's will and attempting to impose our willful and proud ways onto God?  I have a sister who is currently in critical care, life flighted to Provo and on a ventilator.  My father saw her in day vision/visitation before she was born in NZ while he and my mother were serving as Church teaching missionaries over there at the temple complex.  She has been a real pain in the butt for my parents as she has bucked living a conforming and covenant-filled life.  As with one of my children (in my humble opinion - based on scriptural yardsticks, not my own understanding; therefore, not judgment nor Final Judgment...  for M.F., just simple evaluation as I would judge whether a horse or car meets criteria), her mortal probation appears to have been largely wasted as she mocks those of us who believe in God and even gave a blow-up sheep sex doll as a gift to a young nephew who was celebrating his 12th birthday and preparing to be a worthy vessel for the Priesthood of God  This doll complete with a working orifice on the back end painted red...  Grrrr....  Most laughed at this at the family reunion; I was just shocked and saddened by the level of depravity and I set about finding excuses to not attend another one until there was a level of public shaming of this kind of thing... instead of encouraging it with laughter and carrying on.

So, do I pray for the recovery of this person?  Or do I pray that they will have their arse handed to them and possibly have an Alma the Younger moment?  And save themselves, pulling off a last minute miracle save of the individual due to a "coming to Jesus" moment?  I think the latter.  At some point, God will expunge those from this earth that harbor these feelings and attitudes.  If the George Soros and Hunter Bidens of the world are allowed to persist, do we pray for their well-being or do we pray for them to turn it around or do we pray for their immediate dismissal from this globe?  I am firmly in the latter camp...

Do we do what the crowd is doing in flying the Ukrainian flag and praying for their success?  Or do we pray that one of the world's biggest sex trafficking and baby trafficking countries are brought to their knees in any way possible and the vermin expunged?  I think the latter.  We will have to have the Gift of Discernment in order to navigate what is coming in the future months.  We need to know CLEARLY what we are fighting for and what we are fighting against.  If we do not know those things, we may find ourselves on the wrong side of the fence literally.

I cannot help but think of the prophecy regarding Utah and those few who are saved and how there will literally be a line in the sand drawn by Federal oppressors and those who are for the current regime, corruption, the gadiantons, big pharma, marxism and forced collectivism will side with the feds and the analgous "Jophnson's Army" that has come to force Utahns into compliance once again and there will be those who stand for self determination, Liberty, limited and Constitutional government, and who believe that this land is only for those who are Christ-centered, who will be about to be wiped out.  At the crux of the moment, Christ will save them as with fire from heaven consuming the latter-day "aints", while preserving the Latter-day Saints from harm.

If this comes about, and I believe it to be a literal thing, then we will have an analgous event to what the Jews will experience - with the save from a Divine Power, after the purging of the wicked posers.

We will witness amazing things and go through amazing things.  Those who survive it will be called blessed.  Literal statistical anomalies...  However, I am of the opinion that those who do not, will be the actual blessed ones....  Strait is the way, narrow the passage that will lead into Millennial bliss.  The bar is high, the requirements quite stringent.
