    Some have expressed concerns about publishing this and other visions, when they align with scriptural warnings, such as those in Doctrine and Covenants Section 1, and are reflected in various General Conference talks given by Church leaders warning of future events.
    While some individuals claim these visions have been debunked, no concrete evidence has ever been provided. It’s thought-provoking to compare these criticisms with Church history and other materials that similarly rely on third-party sources.
    These visions will remain available, with more to come, allowing individuals to reflect and evaluate them in light of prophecy, doctrine, and Church counsel.
    Some individuals have claimed connections to Church leadership but offer vague descriptions of their relationships, which is typical of those who may be dishonest. If Church leadership genuinely wishes to see the removal of this or any other vision, please provide a link via a post on this channel to an official signed document by a member of the First Presidency or one of the Twelve Apostles, and it will be promptly removed. The signed document will not be made public, as all comments are moderated before publishing. This offer is made in a spirit of cooperation and respect for Church authority, with the goal of working in harmony, not opposition.

      Christ stated: know if something/ someone is truthful by the bad or evil tree bearing bad fruit and the good tree bearing good fruit. A "prophecy" of murky origin that causes nothing but pessimism, hope-destroying depression and feeling utterly helpless, "DOOMED" by the outlook of the story no matter HOW one strives to Do Right and be Christlike and caring toward all, IS OBVIOUSLY BEARING ONLY EVIL FRUIT. Du-uh! We can EASILY figure this out.

      ​@@Chris-qp9biI'm sorry you found it so frightening. I think it all depends on how you look at it, though. I listen to this and do not find my hope destroyed, nor do I feel absolutely helpless or doomed. I find it a sobering reminder to stay close to the Lord, and to actively choose Him over worldly things. To roughly paraphrase a quote I heard, the Lord makes the rain to fall on the wicked and the righteous, but faith in the Lord and following His servants give you an umbrella. One may get a little damp (depending on the extent of one's needs for personal humbling) but one will always be spiritually safe by having and following the Holy Ghost in one's life. 🩷

      True or not, since you made this disclaimer, I doubt the church will ask you to remove it. It doesn't do anything to hurt the church. This, vision, or what ever it is, could still potentially be true. Or maybe just parts of it. First and foremost, open your heart to recieve your own personal revelation through the Holy Ghost so that God could show you what is true or not.

    There is a comment about the word “cars” being used when John Taylor did not live to see them. Today we use the word “Car” to refer to an automobile, but back in the 1870s and beyond the word “car” referenced street cars, trolleys, etc., horse drawn or the upcoming electric. (I’m currently researching 1870s technology for a novel, and the word “car” repeatedly comes up in reference to street cars & trolley.). “Cars” could also refer to train cars. We gotta be careful not to interpret the past (cultural, mentality, vocabulary, etc.) through a 21st century lense.

      “The word "car" comes from the Latin word carrus or carrum, which means "wheeled vehicle". It also comes from the Middle English word carre, which means "two-wheeled cart". Both words come from the Gaulish word karros, which means "chariot".
      The word "car" originally referred to any wheeled vehicle that was pulled by horses, such as a wagon, carriage, or cart.”

    I am a member of the church, and I believe these words of desolation are befitting the prophets of old: Isa chapter 10, desolation spoken of by Daniel I chapter 9, and Jeremiah chapter 25. they fit the description and see the turmoil the world is in. I believe even Pres Nelson suggested these in his conference talks: the world will be in turmoil

    With the upcoming election between Trump and harris, I've had moments of despair and severe anxiety. The Spirit whispered to me that Heavenly Father will help me no matter what the outcome, as He always has in the past, because I've tried to be faithful; not perfect, but trying my best. I can't go back and find it, but somewhere in this clip it mentions few people being left. Sadly, I see that happening now. So many abortions. Other than at Church, I see very few babies out in the world. I've heard people talk of babies, but where are they?

      Fear is what Satan wants us to have because we are gifted with the innate “self- preservation” of life. Thus yes we fear death in a way. However our ❤ for Christ and knowing when we have done all we could according to our understanding, wether we die or live during these times to come matters not for we have Eternal Life and will be called up at the First Resurrection ! So as horrible as whatever is to come, will be to see, know that the Savior will lift up those loyal to Him those who Love & Live His Words as we give aid to those around us during good & bad times! Our earthly body is a temporal encasing of our True Spiritual body and all will be restored unto it when resurrected, including the removal of the Veil given us to live on this earth! Hosannah to His Holy Name and to our Heavenly Parents!

    Surely this account relates more than one moment in the final events in this world, even though it all was shown as a single vision.
    I can feel, confirm and give testimony of the truth in this message, and I did not come to know exactly while watching the video, but short after, while studying Isaiah's words.
    It is not a surprise that prophets, leadership, and even the Lord Jesus Christ itself ask us to study Isaiah's words, for they talk about our days.

      @TheWordsofChrist  3 місяці тому +4

      In the Book of Mormon, particularly in the book of 3 Nephi, we read about significant destruction and devastation that occurred prior to Christ's visit. This destruction was a result of the people's wickedness and the fulfillment of prophecies. For example, in **3 Nephi 8:6-12**, we learn about great natural disasters that took place, including earthquakes, storms, and darkness, which were signs of the end of a corrupt society.
      However, the destruction was not the end but rather a precursor to Christ's visit and the establishment of His teachings among the survivors. In **3 Nephi 11:1**, we see that after these events, Jesus Christ did indeed visit the survivors and began His teachings among them, providing a new beginning and a path of hope and redemption.
      The destruction before Christ's visit serves as a stark reminder of the consequences of turning away from God, but it also highlights the mercy and hope that Christ brings. As the survivors witnessed His arrival, it was a sign of new beginnings and the opportunity for change and reconciliation with God.
      The Bible also emphasizes the transformative power of Christ's return and the hope He brings, as seen in **Revelation 21:4**, which speaks of a future where God will wipe away all tears, and there will be no more death or mourning. This perspective helps us understand that while the destruction was severe, it was a moment leading to a new era of peace and righteousness through Christ's teachings.
      In summary, the destruction in the Book of Mormon and the warning found in the Book of Revelation chapter 24 are clear about the coming destruction which then sets the stage for a profound and necessary intervention by Jesus Christ, offering a chance for renewal and a fresh start for those who would follow Him.

    I heard of this but never heard that it was a vision seen by any specific person. Such horror

    There is no way this happened in 1951; John Taylor died in 1887. George Albert Smith died in 1875.

    Well he didn’t live through it as this said in the first vision so I guess it’s not true?

      Do you have any questions about the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and the doctrine of Christ which is taught all over the world in every language people may speak?

    He did not tell others of this, he did not count it as a revelation. Seems much more is added to this.

    "Avoid godless chatter, because those who indulge in it will become more and more ungodly." 2 Tim. 2:10 .......just a hint, the New Jerusalem will not be built in MO.

      @myteacorn 2nd Timothy 2: 10 is not talking about any of the Prophets or Apostles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. It is talking about the godless chatter of the accusers of Our Brethren from Revelation 12: 10. We are to defeat the accuser with The Atonement of Jesus , our testimonies of Him, and our covenants we make with Him in His Holy Temples.
      The fruits of Our Apostolic and Prophetic Brethren are sweet and abundant! Matthew 7: 15-20, Ephesians 2: 19-2 and Ephesians 4: 11-14. The glory of The Restoration would be clearly seen were it not for the accusatory fog from the godless chatter. Come and join all of the happy people on the Holy Highway or Covenant Path of Isaiah 35!
      And YES, _The New Jerusalem will be built on The American Continent in Jackson County Missouri_ .

      Isaiah 35: 8-10
      _And an highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called The way of holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it; but it shall be for those: the wayfaring men, though fools, shall not err therein. No lion shall be there, nor any ravenous beast shall go up thereon, it shall not be found there; but the redeemed shall walk there: And the ransomed of the Lord shall return, and come to Zion with songs and everlasting joy upon their heads: they shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away._

      It most definitely will be built in Independence Missouri

      @myteacorn - the New Jerusalem will absolutely be built in “the place which is now called Independence”. (D&C 57). There are those who think this was superseded in D&C 124, but subsequent statements made by many prophets including and especially Brigham Young, Heber C. Kimball and Orson Pratt specifically reference Jackson County. Orson Pratt was in Jackson County at the time of D&C 57. All three were in Zions camp. All three knew and understood D&C 124. All three made subsequent statements confirming Independence as the place. You can add Talmage, McConkie, Joseph Fielding Smith, Ezra Taft Benson and several others. I will take their statements over any contemporary Church historian.

    Is it okay that he got excommunicated from your church?

    • @TheWordsofChrist

      No, John Taylor was never excommunicated from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He served faithfully as the third President of the Church from 1880 until his death in 1887 and was a key leader throughout his life.

      The Bible encourages us to approach one another with love and understanding, rather than with slander or disrespect. As a leader of your own Christian church group online, you have an opportunity to set a positive example for others.
      1. **Respect for Others’ Faith:**
      - In **Philippians 2:3**, Paul instructs us, "Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves." This verse highlights the importance of humility and respect in our interactions with others, even when we have differing beliefs.
      2. **Avoiding Slander:**
      - **Proverbs 16:28** says, "A froward man soweth strife: and a whisperer separateth chief friends." Slandering or speaking ill of others can create unnecessary division and strife within the body of Christ. It’s important to address differences with kindness and integrity.
      3. **Unity in Christ:**
      - Jesus prayed for unity among His followers in **John 17:21**: "That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me." Our primary goal should be to reflect Christ's love and unity, rather than focusing on differences.
      4. **Focus on Constructive Dialogue:**
      - **Ephesians 4:29** encourages us, "Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers." Constructive dialogue and grace-filled communication are essential in discussing doctrinal differences.
      5. **The Call to Love One Another:**
      - Finally, **1 John 4:20** states, "If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?" Our love for one another should be evident in our words and actions, reflecting the love God has shown us.
      I encourage you to consider these principles as we engage in discussions about faith. Let’s strive to build each other up and seek common ground, focusing on what unites us in Christ rather than what divides us.
