shutterbugheidi Posted March 15, 2011 Report Posted March 15, 2011 As a member of AVOW, I can tell you that there are all kinds of people who are members of the AVOW group/website. Much like this site, the AVOW site is a place for networking and discussion. There are forums that deal with spiritual preparedness, physical preparedness, current events, and other note/news worthy information. There is a lot of good preparedness information, food storage/preparation/purchase, medical information in case of emergencies, etc as well as other forums that deal with parenting issues, children with special needs, and other forums that assist saints in all parts of the world in supporting one another, etc. None of this is forbidden discussion according to the leadership of the church... Yes, there are forums that deal with dreams and visions, both of LDS people (including GAs and Prophets) as well as dreams and visions of Non-LDS people (George Washington, etc). These forums that deal with dreams and visions are done so with the intention of sharing only--no one claims to be a prophet or that their dream should be followed. It is simply a way to share the dreams that have common themes by people who are having these dreams (Joel 2:28-29). There is nothing sinister about them...and they certainly are NOT the focus of the website. AVOW stands for Another Voice of Warning. It is simply a resource to assist people in their preparedness (as we have been commanded to do), and is not there to replace our prophet, contradict the prophet, or preach false doctrine. Quote
zob Posted May 19, 2015 Report Posted May 19, 2015 I have research Roger K Young and cannot find anything about his biography.. I'm assuming that is because he has no credentials.. President Harold B. Lee made this statement about individuals who take it upon themselves to instruct us in regards to the second coming: “There are among us many loose writings predicting the calamities which are about to overtake us. Some of these have been publicized as though they were necessary to wake up the world to the horrors about to overtake us. Many of these are from sources upon which there cannot be unquestioned reliance. “… We need no such publications to be forewarned, if we were only conversant with what the scriptures have already spoken to us in plainness.” (In Conference Report, Oct. 1972, 128; or Ensign, Jan. 1973, p. 106.)
