I'm Convinced the End is Coming


Recommended Posts

Don't be scared...what I do fear and tremble over, is meeting my elder brother - Jesus Christ - knowing, what more could I have done and didn't do. There is nothing in this world more scarier than that. Even meeting Lucifer (Dragon) or the Anti-Christ (Lamb with two horns), doesn't scare me.

We follow the prophet and the Spirit, He will not leave us during those times.

There are many signs of the Second Coming that we will see before it happens, and many of them are already happening. I actually think it's amusing that this is what would trigger your concern. "Anti-Christ" is actually a very misunderstood term. I don't personally believe that there will be any one person will be the Anti-Christ. An anti-Christ is an person who actively seeks to draw others away from the truth of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Even Christ, who we all think was saved by His own accord, 'fear and tremble' over His own salvation.

While in Sacrament, I was reading about what is this Destroyer, is he a angel (ministering spirit) or a devil. Depending on the author usage of words and observation of the reader, remarkable in the D&C 1, it states the following:

6. Behold, this is mine authority, and the authority of my servants, and my preface unto the book of my commandments, which I have given them to publish unto you, O inhabitants of the earth.

7. Wherefore, fear and tremble, O ye people, for what I the Lord have decreed in them shall be fulfilled.

8. And verily I say unto you, that they who go forth, bearing these tidings unto the inhabitants of the earth, to them is power given to seal both on earth and in heaven, the unbelieving and rebellious;

9. Yea, verily, to seal them up unto the day when the wrath of God shall be poured out upon the wicked without measure—

10. Unto the day when the Lord shall come to recompense unto every man according to his work, and measure to every man according to the measure which he has measured to his fellow man.

11. Wherefore the voice of the Lord is unto the ends of the earth, that all that will hear may hear:

12. Prepare ye, prepare ye for that which is to come, for the Lord is nigh;

13. And the anger of the Lord is kindled, and his sword is bathed in heaven, and it shall fall upon the inhabitants of the earth.

14. And the arm of the Lord shall be revealed; and the day cometh that they who will not hear the voice of the Lord, neither the voice of his servants, neither give heed to the words of the prophets and apostles, shall be cut off from among the people;

15. For they have strayed from mine ordinances, and have broken mine everlasting covenant;

16. They seek not the Lord to establish his righteousness, but every man walketh in his own way, and after the image of his own God, whose image is in the likeness of the world, and whose substance is that of an idol, which waxeth old and shall perish in Babylon, even Babylon the great, which shall fall.

In using Lehi's dream of the Tree of Life (See 1st Nephi) When you read this dream, are you on the path that leads to the Tree of Life, or cross the river to the spacious building where the worlds is currently resides? Can you leave the building spacious river and wade across the murky dirty river to the path again? Yes! If you say no, it is you that is preventing that jounrey back. Don't worry about them, in do time, when the repentance time as ran out, the Savior's four destroyers (angels) will take care of business. Until then, the Parable of Wheat and the Tare is still in affect. Though, it is John who prevents them from binding the tares together before all the members are sealed with the eternal sealing. If not, the world would have already ended. :P

Hello? knock knock...Am I still here? Whewwww..I was worried for a moment after googling it.

After going through 20 pages I found absolutely no LDS reference to it. That would be the one I would be looking instead of all the conspiracy theories.

I would concentrate more on being the best person you could be than all the hodge podge of other doom and gloom things you hear.

Because I just saw this discussion on Yahoo about something called New World Order and a world leader is supposed to be chosen.

Does anyone know anything about this? Is this the real deal?

If you read in 1 John 2:18-22 it states:

18 Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.

19 They wend out from us, but they wee not of us; for if they had been of us they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they wee not all of us.

20 But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things.

21 I have not written unto you because ye know not the truth, but because ye know it, and that no lie is of the truth.

22 Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the son

The term "Antichrist" is prevalent in the Scriptures. Antichrist is any individual, group, philosophy or ideology, or nation that oppose Jesus Christ. There have been many antichrists throughout history. For example, Sherem, Nehor, Korihor, and Zoram were antichrists in the Book of Mormon.

Many Christian denominations believe that there will be one man who rules the world under the guise of peace. When in fact, this individual actually is in league with the devil and will want to destroy the souls men. There are political groups, not only in the U.S. but throughout the world, that are calling for a New World Order; where a global government controls everything from religion to a single world currency. In fact, some of the globalization groups are calling for a one world religion.

These philosophies go against everything our Lord and Savior stand for. These philosophies and ideologies take away our free-agency, which an eternal gift the our Heavenly Father has given us. These philosophies are based upon the same plan Lucifer presented to the Father in the preexistence, which was that we wouldn't have our free-agency to choose to return to heaven. It would be forced upon us and Lucifer would gain all of the glory. Of course, this plan was rejected (thank goodness).

A new world order is very possible in the near future, but you must not have any fear. If and when we lose our freedom in this country, this will be the time our Church leaders will call for the gathering of the Saints to Missouri to build the New Jerusalem, which is called Zion. Zion will be protected by the Lord. This promise is found in Doctrine and Covenants, Section 45, Verses 62-71.

It is not likely the Anti-Christ or the Lamb with two horns portrayed in the Book of Revelation will rule the world as a whole. Apostle Bruce R. McConkie stated this also. Even Joseph Smith stated the obvious about the false prophet:

He then read Rev. 13:1-8. John says, "And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed; and all the world wondered after the beast." Some spiritualizers say the beast that received the wound was Nebuchadnezzar, some Constantine, some Mohammed, and others the Roman Catholic Church; but we will look at what John saw in relation to this beast. Now for the wasp's nest. The translators have used the term "dragon" for devil. Now it was a beast that John saw in heaven, and he was then speaking of "things which must shortly come to pass;" and consequently the beast that John saw could not be Nebuchadnezzar. The beast John saw was an actual beast, and an actual intelligent being gives him his power, and his seat, and great authority. It was not to represent a beast in heaven: it was an angel in heaven who has power in the last days to do a work.

"All the world wondered after the beast," Nebuchadnezzar and Constantine the Great not excepted. And if the beast was all the world, how could the world wonder after the beast? It must have been a wonderful beast to cause all human beings to wonder after it; and I will venture to say that when God allows the old devil to give power to the beast to destroy the inhabitants of the earth, all will wonder. Verse 4 reads, "And they worshiped the dragon which gave power unto the beast; and they worshiped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? Who is able to make war with him?.

Some say it means the kingdom of the world. One thing is sure, it does not mean the kingdom of the Saints. Suppose we admit that it means the kingdoms of the world, what propriety would there be in saying, Who is able to make war with my great big self? If these spiritualized interpretations are true, the book contradicts itself in almost every verse. But they are not true.

There is a mistranslation of the word dragon in the second verse. The original word signifies the devil, and not dragon, as translated. In chapter 12, verse 9, it reads, "That old serpent, called the devil," and it ought to be translated devil in this case, and not dragon. It is sometimes translated Apollyon. Everything that we have not a key-word to, we will take it as it reads. The beasts which John saw and speaks of as being in heaven, were actually living in heaven, and were actually to have power given to them over the inhabitants of the earth, precisely according to the plain reading of the revelations. I give this as a key to the elders of Israel. The independent beast is a beast that dwells in heaven, abstract [apart] from the human family. The beast that rose up out of the sea should be translated the image of a beast, as I have referred to it in Daniel's vision.(History of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, vol. 5 by Joseph Smith, B. H. Roberts, p.345)

However, he will control those nations and people that will give him his power (honor).

Since I know you guys fairly well, I thought I'd mention here first that I am the one that was picked to be the leader of the New World Order. First command? Chocolate ice cream at all meals.

Seriously, There has been discussion about the World Order for centuries. The belief of a cabal of super wealthy that seek to control the world has been around since the 1700s with the Illuminati, an actual group that sought to control Europe and the world by pitting nations against one another. The Rothchilds became very wealthy by loaning money and selling arms to both nations in a conflict.

Some believe that there still is a cabal seeking to establish this order. BTW, the Great Seal of the United States has the term "Novus Ordo Seclorum" or New Order of the Ages. Many believe that our nation actually set back the effort by the wealthy to obtain power by spreading democracy throughout the world and being a beacon of hope to the enslaved.

As it is, the scriptures suggest there will be two world orders in the last days: Zion and Babylon. Joseph Smith stated that Zion would be established in the Americas. Babylon will then be established in the Old World both spiritually and physically. The European Union is based upon many of the concepts involved in the claimed New World Order conspiracies.

Personally, I do not believe the anti-christ is one person. I believe it is a system, economic and religious, which will control much of the earth. People will have to worship "the Beast", again not a person, but a cabal of nations. And they will still have differing views on how to do things.

While Hemidakota thinks it is still years away, I do not. I believe that the signs are there for the end times to shortly be fulfilled. The upcoming economic collapse of most nations, which will occur, is not far off. We are just too far into debt to pull out of it without serious economic overhaul. It will give the powerful the chance to step in to "save" the people by returning to an authoritarian form of government.

Red China (the Dragon in Revelation) gives us a glimpse of what Babylon will be like. It will be authoritarian, but still give people enough economic freedom to keep them stupidly content. There are few Tienanmen Squares these days, because the Chinese people have work and can log onto the Internet to Facebook one another.

In the USA, if we do not stop spending on all levels, we will have an economic collapse. Expect a double dip recession starting next year sometime, as that is when the Bush tax cuts end, Congress is raising new taxes and wants to spend more money, and you will see our economy slow way down again. We have had decades of excess, and it is now all piling up upon us with no time to fix it all.

Hello? knock knock...Am I still here? Whewwww..I was worried for a moment after googling it.

After going through 20 pages I found absolutely no LDS reference to it. That would be the one I would be looking instead of all the conspiracy theories.

I would concentrate more on being the best person you could be than all the hodge podge of other doom and gloom things you hear.

"there is no reference?" It is not called the "New world order" It is called secret combinations and gadianton robbers. There are tons of references to these.

Have any of you actually read the BOM, Bible, and listened to modern day prophets? It is all just a crazy conspiracy? What planet are you guys on? The devil started his own conspiracy in the pre existence. He conspired to take god's throne. He conspired to trick Adam and eve. Do you think he has changed? He is the god of this world. He works in the hearts of man and is the leader of the secret combinations. Many of these groups do actually worship satan.

Practically every mormon prophet has made reference to corruption in the world government. That means the American government as well. Ezra T. B has lots of stuff on it.

Somewhatmormon, I am some what mormon myself, but the NWO does exist and you will find all kinds of talks and members that are involved with knowing this kind of stuff.

For starters:

Study the book of Daniel. It will take you through the different evil societies that existed until present date. The babylon society is the world and we are definitely part of it (usa). and this evil war like society will eventually be destroyed.

I think someone made mention of the catholics? Look up the Jesuit order and study the actions of the catholics throughout history.

Look up the club of rome, bilderberg, cfr, EU, Zionist, The trilateral commision, Masons,The green movment, rothschilds, Rockefeller's.......... I could go on and on but they are all secret combinations with the end goal being world domination and population control. They want to kill off the population and rule the world.

A stone that says it all.

The Georgia Guidestones

That means that 6.5 billion of us have got to go. How do they do this? Wars, disease, starvation etc. It is literally all around us and it goes back to Satan's original plan. And you will find that all roads eventually lead to Rome. There is prophecy in the bible concerning this.

Dont trust any goup reps or dems. They are funded by the same people and vote the same commy way. The reps appeal to the white christian conservative, but do not vote in the same manner that they say. Dems appeal to the free loading socialists but vote the same as the reps. It is all the same with a different face. The parties are lobbied and controlled. News and all major broadcasters are own and payed off. The media is owned by the same people. You can follow the money and have a good Idea who controls what.

There is to much to even scratch the surface of what is going on. To much.

Stay away from david icke and steve quayles. They are ridiculous and misleading. There is a lot of misinfo out there too. alex jones is right about a lot of things, but.......I am not sure about him yet. He does not talk about the jesuit order at all, perhaps the most powerful group out of all.
