Hi Melinda, welcome!

Yes. Not fully sure what you mean here, but he did say something about encouraging the general validity of first impressions. If that's what you're getting at, I could provide a quote for further discussion. That would be a general overstatement. More accurately that the New Jerusalem would be built in the Americas.

Alma 32. God speed.

Hi Seattle. I've studied a number of schools of prophetic interpretation, including preterism. Although there is some overlap with partial preterism, several of my view of Bible prophecy align with historicism.Would be interested in things you have read, on your take on Rev 12, and how you view all this in light of the Restoration.

MBASS, they were our neighbors until a few weeks ago. Very kind people. Salt of the earth. Please tell them their last ward misses them. Also, if they haven't heard yet about their last bishop, you might want to suggest they call someone from our ward for specifics. The ward is putting together a book of memories this week for the bishop's family. Your new neighbors might want to contribute a memory or two - so please invite them to contact "Barb" with their comments anytime this week.
