"And Babylon, the glory of kingdoms, the
beauty of the Chaldees' excellency, shall
be as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah. 20. It shall never be inhabited, neither
shall it be dwelt in from generation to generation: neither shall the Arabian
pitch tent there; neither shall the shepherds make their fold there.
21. But wild beasts of the desert shall lie there; and their houses shall
be full of doleful creatures; and owls shall dwell there, and satyrs shall
dance there. 22. And the wild beasts of
the islands shall cry in their desolate
houses, and dragons in their pleasant palaces: and her time is near to come, and her days shall not be prolonged."
I wish
that some could see the things I see. I
pray for that. Increasingly I am seeing
people professing the name of Christ and those that quote scripture following
the same humid path which put a stumbling block before the children of Israel.
They
don’t offer up scripture citing their reasoning because they can’t, so they
quote other books they call
scripture. Am I supposed to just walk
away? Do I fight them or fight FOR
them? Most times I just swallow down the
retort “are you for real?” They probably
feel the same way about me.
Is it
right to get angry over a labor of love rejected? Does a man turn and walk away from his true
love when she spurns his efforts of courtship, or does he pursue her and prove
his sincerity?
God
gave man time to reciprocate a relationship.
He gave his only begotten son to pay our debts. He prolonged this existence so that His
children would have time to remember the ransom paid for them, repent, accept
the gift of the restoration with their Father and get to know Him again.
John
saw the great angel with the little book.
John heard him call for an end to time.
The iniquity is about to be consumed and there is little time left.
While
the red carpet is being rolled out for the coming “Messiah”, very few are
noticing the pits that carpet is covering.
The slaughterers will call for peace and the deceivers will campaign for
truth; lies will look like truth and if you are not careful and question
everything, the illusion will appear real and you will be cut off on the wrong
side of the curtain.
A
celebrated siren overestimates her allure.
She thinks she’s writing the script, but she forgets the tale she had to
tell of her fall. And now she sings
about a messiah she believes she can attract with “no light of her own”,
“rolling in the deep” -
"I am the promise
That you cannot keep
Reep what you sow
Find what you seek
I am the sorceress
Down in the deep
I am the earth
Under your feet
I am the moon with no light of my
own
You are the sun guarding your throne
I heard the angels whisper to me
Look for the signs
He is the one
I'll light a candle here in the dark
Making my way
To your heart" -
Madonna :lyrics, "Messiah"
She has
no light of her own. Neither now, nor
when she sang of knowing where beauty lives.
The light he couldn’t see had already been given away with her soul.
This
they seek of him, but they haven’t succeeded.
And you are never going to convince He who authored truth that it has
been misinterpreted.
A Re-Upholstered
Babylon
I was
doing some research over the last week or so into a “denomination” of some
people that began as friends on my husband’s Facebook page. Two others of the same religion are friends
of both of ours and as a courtesy, we attended a church service with them.
The
program was laid out a bit different than what I was used to in most other
churches who teach Christ in that the service was three hours long instead of
the almost two (including Sunday School) that my Baptist upbringing adhered to.
That
was the weekend my in-laws came to visit and consequently when I became so
sick. The church had sent visitation
missionaries to our house so that we could ask questions. I was not keen on this at the time because I
was still running fevers and I unfortunately had to turn them away. I thought that would be the end of it, but my
husband wanted to go back to church and was interested in learning more. I was not happy about this . . . at all. But I supported him and agreed he had to make
up his own mind; so we attended both a “counseling” and a church service with
him once I recovered from the flu (counseling = question and answer).
The
first question I had could not be answered by them because the question asked
them to test what their doctrine book said with the scripture in the Holy
Bible. The same thing happened when the
conversation was continued through email later, and over the next few days. I had tons of other questions, and we
couldn’t get past this one.
The
“religion” in question is the “Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints” and their
“Book of Mormon”. They believe it is
scripture. I do not. We had briefly discussed the Mormon Church
along with Jehovah’s Witnesses, Scientology and a few others on blog topics two
to three years ago like “Michael Jackson and Scientology”, “Illuminati Had Big Plans”, “Jesus And Michael The Great Prince”
and “Urgency in His Message”, and their
founding by Masonic leaders.
There
are plenty of stories out there and various sources reporting that the Mormons
were persecuted for their religion, or at least that is what is reported on the
LDS Research website.
What that link says about the persecution was this:
"It would be wrong to say that the
Mormons were treated badly simply because they had theological disagreements
with their new neighbors. In his book The Mormon Hierarchy - Origins of Power,
former LDS historian D. Michael Quinn wrote,
"Fear of being overwhelmed politically,
socially, culturally, economically by Mormon immigration was what fueled
anti-Mormonism wherever the Latter-day Saints settled during Joseph Smith's
lifetime. Religious belief, as non-Mormons understood it, had little to do with
anti-Mormonism. On the other hand, by the mid-1830s Mormons embraced a religion
that shaped their politics, economics and society. Conflict was
inevitable" (p.91).
On page 82 of the
book, The Story of the Latter-day Saints, LDS historians James B. Allen and
Glen M. Leonard wrote, "Impressed
by the Mormon image of group solidarity, some old settlers expressed fears that as a group the Mormons were
determined to take over all of their lands and business." - Source, mrm.org
Does
this sound familiar? It follows the same
pattern as the stories told of the “pogroms” and the expelling of the Jews from
different countries – both religious groups claim unprecedented persecution . .
. while accumulating wealth and power in their organizations. That in itself is no crime, unless you are
oppressing and killing others in the process.
Just
about every organized group can boast that strategy; however it they had even
more in common with the Jews. It is hard
to advocate for a group as a persecuted people while their founders held
prominent positions in government.
Mormon’s
founder Joseph Smith was a Freemason as was his brother and his father. Joseph Smith was mayor of Nauvoo, Illinois, where the first
“temple” was constructed. Brigham Young
was the first governor of the Utah territory which later became a state. He founded many of the major towns/cities in
that state and it was admittedly governed as a “theo-democracy”.
While
Young was governor, few could deny his organizational and business skills. But there was an incident that occurred while
he was in power that also sounds very familiar not only with the tactics the
Jews used in the time of Jesus, but also in what our own government is being
used to accomplish today and I will wager that you will not have much trouble
seeing this tactic in this account of the incident.
It was
called “The Mountain Meadows Massacre”.
The Mountain Meadows
massacre was a series of attacks on the
Baker–Fancher emigrant wagon train at Mountain Meadows in southern Utah. The attacks culminated on September 11, 1857, with the mass
slaughter of most in the emigrant party by members of the Utah Territorial Militia from the Iron County
district, together with some Paiute Native Americans.
"The militia, officially called the
Nauvoo Legion, was composed of Utah's
Mormon settlers (members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints
or LDS Church). Intending to give the
appearance of Native American aggression, their plan was to arm some Southern Paiute
Native Americans and persuade them to join with a larger party of their own
militiamen—disguised as Native Americans—in an attack. During the militia's first assault
on the wagon train, the emigrants fought
back and a five-day siege ensued. Eventually fear spread among the
militia's leaders that some emigrants
had caught sight of white men and had likely discovered the identity of their
attackers. As a result militia commander William H. Dame ordered his forces to kill the emigrants.
At Lee's sentencing,
as required by Utah Territory statute, he was given the option of being hanged,
shot, or beheaded, and he chose to be shot.[34] In 1877, before being executed
by firing squad at Mountain Meadows on March 23, 1877, Lee professed that he was a scapegoat for others involved.[35]
Brigham Young stated that Lee's fate was just, but not a sufficient blood
atonement, given the enormity of the crime.
The massacre has been
treated extensively by several historical works, beginning with Lee's own Confession in 1877, expressing his opinion that George
A. Smith was sent to southern Utah by Brigham Young to direct the massacre.
Some of the property of the dead was reportedly
taken by the Native Americans involved, while large amounts of their valuables and cattle were taken by the Mormons
in Southern Utah, including John D. Lee.
Some of the cattle were taken to Salt Lake City and sold or traded. The remaining personal property of the
Baker–Fancher party was taken to the tithing house at Cedar City and
auctioned off to local Mormons"
The
first thing that struck me was the date – September 11, 1857. I don’t know what else has happened on that
date aside from the worst mass murder that ever was perpetrated in this country
in 2001, and the Benghazi attacks, but this is a
very young country. I don’t see how it
can support three “coincidences” in such a short span of time, of this
enormity.
MJ 2014 CBS News Benghazi
-Source URL
That is
the screenshot from the CBS page denoting the date should there be any
question.
The
patterns that a certain, late pop star alluded to in a cryptic yet telling
interview as he was going through he own trial in 2005 are evident in all three
of these events:
- The
date, September 11
-
People dressed as/acting as an ethnic group they had planned to blame the
attack on.
- A
“false flag” designed to garner popular support for the group who was behind
the attacks and/or to garner support for war against those who’s land which
they wanted ownership or control.
In the
case of the Meadow Mountain massacre, the
territory the Indians had control of was the target.
Brigham
Young was also credited with leading the first Mormon settlers to Utah, where
the settled around “The Great Salt Lake”. It is the largest “terminal lake” in the Western Hemisphere (nothing flows out
from it – it is cut off). Coincidentally
the “Jordan River” in Utah is one of three rivers that dump minerals into the
Great Salt Lake. Isn’t it
“coincidental” that the only other “Salt Sea” known around the world is
the one mentioned in scripture, the “Dead Sea” into which the “Jordan” of “Israel” and “Jordan”
empties. – Source, William W. Slaughter
and Michael Landon: Trail of Hope – The Story of the Mormon Trail. Shadow
Mountain, 1997.
Why was
Brigham Young so set on that area? It
wasn’t “crop-growing” friendly.
Young
and his followers were also responsible for establishing hundreds of other
settlements in Utah, Idaho, Nevada, Arizona, Wyoming, California, Canada, and
Mexico. These included “Las Vegas, Nevada; Franklin, Idaho (the first white settlement in Idaho);
San Bernardino, California; Star Valley, Wyoming; and Carson Valley, Nevada."

I
surmise that the migration and spread of the Mormons in the west had less to do
with persecution and more to do with gold and silver, or maybe something deeper
than that – “History Nevada State”.
Remember
what we discovered about Las Vegas – that “great city spiritually called Sodom
and Egypt”?
On “Spiritually Called Sodom and Egypt”
we discovered some curious familiar “symbols” for the State of Nevada and Las
Vegas:
The “Morning Star”

Lordcrucified
Back on
that blog topic I pointed out evidence that there were plans not only for this
country, but that town specifically – this is where the two witnesses are put
to death by the beast that comes up out of the pit –and it says “also where our
Lord was crucified” . . . remember this is “that great city” SPIRITUALLY
called Sodom and Egypt as told in Revelation 11.
The
Bible says the “messiah” is crucified there.
Everything in Biblical history points to a crucifixion in Israel, but
modern preparations point to this very country, the United States where at
least some of this will take place.
Remember the “beast” or the “vile one” in Daniel 11 will “return to his
own land”.
"24 He shall
enter peaceably even upon the fattest places of the province; and he shall do
that which his fathers have not done, nor his fathers' fathers; he shall
scatter among them the prey, and spoil, and riches: yea, and he shall forecast
his devices against the strong holds, even for a time.
Remember
“a time”, when measuring by the “time, times and half a time” in Daniel 12:7 and Revelation 12:14 is “a year” of the
three and a half year tribulation (times = 2 years).
Another
rather exquisite “coincidence” I found with Mormonism, Brigham Young’s
“establishment” of Utah was the State of Utah’s flag:
Utah’s State Flag
MJ 2014 Utah State Flag
This
was also Brigham Young’s idea. Of this
it says:
"Young had an expansionist's view of the territory that he and the Mormon
pioneers were settling, calling it
Deseret – which according to the Book of Mormon was an ancient word for "honeybee" – hence the beehive
which can still be found on the Utah flag, and the state's motto, "Industry." - Source, Corporation of
the President of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints: "Church
History in the Fullness of Times." 1989

else have we seen the “hive” prominent in religious institutions?

Zealand.

different parts of the world.

The
Beehive and pine cone are common images as well as the “dome”. Domes can be explained easy enough without
attracting too much attention but the “beehive” as a symbolic
Straight
from the Lodge of Texas Freemason web site:
"The early 19th century lecture of
the Master’s degree contained the following. “The Bee Hive is an emblem of industry, and recommends the practice
of that virtue to all created beings, from the highest seraph in the heavens,
to the lowest reptile of the dust. It teaches us, that as we come into the
world rational and intelligent beings, so we should ever be industrious ones;
never sitting down contented while our fellow-creatures around us are in want,
especially when it is in our power to relieve them, without inconvenience to ourselves.” - Source, Masonictrowel.com
From
the MasterMason.com site explanation on Honeybees, workers and drones:
"Drones are larger than the worker bees, however they do absolutely
nothing to promote the welfare of
the hive. They do not gather nectar, make
honey or make beeswax. They do not cap off each cell of honey that has been
stored nor do they fan the cell to dry the bees wax. They also do not perform
any housekeeping tasks toward the common good of their fraternity nor do they
educate the younger bees in how to perform the work.
Needless to say, the
drones do not worry about having enough honey stored to take the fraternity
through the long Winter. The worker bees
must feed the drones or the drones would starve and die. The only reason
the drones are kept alive by the
worker bees is to promote the
reproduction within the hive. As you can see, the hive needs very few drones if it is to function properly.
If too many drones have been produced by
the Queen Bee, their excess numbers drag
down the abilities of the entire hive because each working member has to
attempt to care for and feed these non-working members of their fraternity
without receiving anything in return.
In the bee world,
their excess numbers are internally counted and when the drones numbers exceed their usefulness, the worker bees drag
these non-working members of their institution to the front door of the hive
where they are left, alone to perish…not because they feel no charity, but
simply because for their fraternity to survive, they cannot continue to nourish
and support non-working members." – Source, MasterMason.com
Now you
understand the “mentality” of the “Bee Hive” and hence the “philosophy”
underneath your “global warming”, “fake vaccine genocides” and the “useless
eaters” by some of your more quoted “elitists” and “Zionists”.
"28 Then shall he
return into his land with great riches; and his heart shall be against the holy
covenant; and he shall do exploits, and return to his own land.
29 At the time appointed he shall return,
and come toward the south; but it shall not be as the former, or as the latter."

Saturn Stones? On a Christian Building?
In
correspondence with a Mormon on the church, I couldn’t get questions answered
other than “pray about the Book of Mormon and read it”. I couldn’t get them to point out in scripture
in the Bible where their teaching was “The Word of God”.
I sent
back another reply to them and as I awaited their response, I did some more
reading.
The
term “Mormon” is even an Egyptian word combined with an English word.
Mormon (n.) -
1830, coined by
religion founder Joseph Smith (1805-1844) in Seneca County, N.Y., from Mormon,
supposed prophet and author of "The Book of Mormon," explained by
Smith as meaning more mon, from English more + Egyptian mon
"good." As an adjective by 1842. Related: Mormonism.
The
“stones” on their temples (sun stones, moon stones, Saturn stones, earth
stones, etc…) are Egyptian sun god in origin, the “planetary alignment”, the
pyramids in Giza and as I told our friend, this is exactly what got the
“children of Israel” in trouble with God time and again throughout the Bible.
The
“golden plates” that started it all with John Smith were were allegedly written
in Egyptian:
“The language on the plates is called
reformed Egyptian: which remains unknown today.” – Source, LDS.org
None of
their prophets . . . not a one is named in the Bible even though they claim
they are descendants of Jacob and Joseph.
Then
there is this – on the Nauvoo Temple.
They call them “morning stars”.
MJ 2014 Mormon Nauvoo Temple
MJ 2014 Mormon Salt Lake Temple
From Masonic Author Manly Hall
"“In symbolism, an inverted figure always signifies a perverted power…The star with two points upward is also
called the “Goat of Mendes,” because the inverted star is the same shape as
a goat’s head. When the upright star turns and the upper point falls to the bottom, it signifies the fall of the Morning
Star.” –
Source, Luis40pr.Wordpress.com
The
link above points out every esoteric and Masonic symbol on their temples and
lists it’s Babylonian and Egyptian origin.
This was offered as an explanation for the “inverted” five pointed
stars:
"The five-pointed star is often represented as the morning star. The descending ray of the Nauvoo
Temple's inverted five-point starstones (there is only one surviving example
and it is damaged) was extended downward. Such
an orientation suggests the rising morning star. This "star" is not a star at all, but the planet Venus.
Venus' brightness is a reflection of the sun, which invisible below the
horizon. The extended ray portrays the source of the morning stars brightness,
not the planet itself, but the sun's brilliance. " - Source, Marshall.edu
The LDS
web site itself does little to explain how these “graven images” on a building
have anything to do with Christ’s teachings.
As a matter of fact the images not Christian at all.
“Located directly above the earthstones, the moon is depicted in its various phases around the temple. The changing moon can represent the stages of human
progression from birth to resurrection or represent the patron’s journey from darkness to light.” – Source, LDSchurchtemples.com
That
sounds like it comes straight from Wicca. But it is older than that, from ancient Egypt and
Samaria.
“One of the most prominent features
of the pilasters were the base-stones. The
base-stones included a deeply carved relief crescent moon facing downward. Although William W. Phelps stated
that the moonstones were “new moons” (Lundwall, Temples of the Most High, p.
47), they were clearly crescent moons.
Each moon also had a carved face in profile. The personification of the
moonstones was perhaps meant to also represent those who dwell in the
Terrestrial Kingdom, because the moon represents the glory of that kingdom on
the Vision (D&C
76:71, 78).” – Lisle Brown
http://users.marshall.edu/~brown/nauvoo/symbols.html
A
comment found which expresses my sentiments exactly:
“I keep saying one of the best bible
studies that opened my eyes to the historical aspects of the Old Testament was the book of Jeremiah (See Jer.
42:15-16). It also cleared the fog of confusion for me that I kept having with the
Book of Mormon. Just about everything God commanded the Israelites not
to do is found as righteous behavior in the Book of Mormon. – Source, LifeAfter.org
There
is also, on the Salt Lake City Temple, a giant statue of the angel “Moroni”
holding a “book” (of Mormon), blowing a trumpet with a “square and compass”
above his head. A square and compass:
"There exists no account for reason of the placement of the square and
compass on the weather vane. One scholar has suggested that,
since the compass, which is used to draw circles, points towards the bowl of
the sky, and that the square, which is used to draw squares, points towards the
earth, that the combination of the two symbols respresent the powers of God in
creating the bowl of the starry heavens and the four corners of the earth
(Brown and Smith, Symbols in Stone, p. 105). Since the symbol is associated
with "the angel flying through the midst of heaven" (D&C 133:36),
it may suggest that the gospel will be "declared by holy angels"
(Moses 5:58) from above to the four corners of the earth, even "unto every
nation, and kindred, tongue and people" (D&C 133:37)." - Source, Marshall.edu
Strategically
left out is the Masonic association of the square and compass, because we know
which the Masons call “God” and It’s not the God of Abraham
Not the God of
Abraham, Isaac or Jacob
Every
bit of symbolism in the temples of the “Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day
Saints” is Masonic, sun-god oriented.
The organization itself has uniquely positioned itself and it’s doctrine
with that of Judaism’s eschatology, even though in appearance they split at
“Jesus Christ”.
MJ 2014 Mormon Sun God Horus
This is
a drawing of an image Joseph Smith made in the Mormon “book of Abraham” of “God
sitting on his throne”.
“In the 1913 publication of
Spalding’s booklet, “Joseph Smith, Jr., as a Translator”, we find Egyptologist
Dr. Samuel Mercer’s findings. According
to Dr. Mercer along with ten other Egyptologists, the drawing in Facsimile 2,
Figure 3 in the Book of Abraham is the Egyptian sun god Horus.
Yet, Joseph Smith was adamant this pictorial
is “God sitting upon his throne”. We can
only be left to conclude the god of Mormonism is Horus, not the God of the
Bible. The drawing is from the Book of
Abraham Facsimile 2, Figure 3

from the LDS Website, the explanation on the “Saturn Stones” which they say
represents the dwelling place of God?

"Saturn Stones are located directly below the parapet on each side of the
six towers. They represent Kolob, the dwelling place of God."

None of
this is Christian based. None of
it. This has more in common with
Egyptian sun god worship than it does Christ’s teachings.
In
discussion of most of this (I had to approach this with our friend in parts
because there is so much), I was surprised at the lack of response. Not even an attempt to scripturally address
this. The responses I sent back were
pretty full with scripture addressing the issues that concerned me about the
Book of Mormon and what I had learned during
that Saturday question and answer session.
The
response I sent back and his reply addressing absolutely NONE of my questions
was one thing. But checking my stats on
the blog that night took me completely by surprise. Especially since I had never given him the
address of the blog nor sent him a link.

Not
that this would be surprising, but I did a little look-up on West Jordan and
sure enough, there was a list of “West Jordan” stakes of the LDS church in the
“Jordan River District:

I took
a look at the list of names of officers of that church and a former President
of the Jordan River District was
President Ben B. Banks. That last name
was very familiar to me because it was the last name of one of the
“missionaries” that came to our house, and also met with us that Saturday
during the “counseling” session.

There
was something else I discovered while researching the LDS church, their claims
to “Jewish” tribes, and their pro-present day Zionism movement:
"With large families, a deep love of
Israel and the Jewish people, simultaneous dedication to our faith and
engagement with the broader world, dietary restrictions and modest dress, and being misunderstood (even by our
coreligionists), Orthodox Jews
surprisingly have much in common with one of the fastest growing religions
in the United States – the Church of Latter Day Saints (LDS), colloquially
known as the Mormons." - Source, JewishPress.com
They go
on to say -
"Mormons were persecuted and killed, but are quick to point out that the persecutions of
the Jews are unparalleled.
Mormons are disproportionately represented in many walks of life, including
the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives. Senate Majority Leader Harry
Reid and 2012 presidential candidates Mitt Romney and Jon Huntsman are members
of the LDS. The founders of Marriott
Hotels and JetBlue, as well an increasing
number of high-level lawyers and bankers, are Mormon." - Source, JewishPress.com
F.W. Blake was one of the Mormon “pioneers” who
traveled from England with those that would be coming from Europe to grow the
Mormon organization with Brigham Young.
You can Google him to find that he first went to Salt Lake (on the
Brigham Young U website for Mormon Migration), Diary of F.W. Blake. If you read through this LDS link, you will
find an almost miraculous organizing of a mass immigration (even from
Copenhagen and England), Mormons all coming to the grand “territory” of Utah,
Salt Lake to be exact. 24,000 of them in
just a six year time span, most with help from “the church”, and all in days
before cell phones, Facebook, or even “Western Union”.
Miles Romney was another British immigrant who began in Nauvoo
and moved to Salt Lake Where Mitt Romney’s father was born. Some of the family migrated to Mexico and
spread LDS down there. Miles Romney was
the architect that helped plan the construction of the temple there.
You
might ask, how did people in Copenhagen and other parts of Europe even hear of
Mormonism, learn the doctrine and decide to mass immigrate all by 1843 - within
just a couple of decades from its 1830 American founding by Joseph Smith?
After
Salt Lake, F.W. Blake was one of the Mormons who established towns in
California, and started a bank – in Weaverville, California.
The “fireproof” building is now a saloon called “The Diggins”. The screenshot below of the building today,
and the building when it was still the bank.

on the tab. Can you see it? It’s a six pointed “star” – like the Israel

was co-occupied with Wells Fargo and by most accounts he was their agent. Wells Fargo
closed their agency in Weaverville in Jan, 1859 and transferred their
relationship to Greenhood & Newbauer, at which time Blake exited the express business. |
It
would not surprise me that “persecuted” people could become “disproportionately
represented” in positions of wealth and leadership. It does however surprise me that a Jewish
source so readily admits it, and ties the pattern to Mormonism as well.
At Kavvanah Wordpress, it is hard to
tell whether they are complaining or celebrating the “Big Love” Orthodox Jewish
leaders have for Mormons, but they are certainly announcing it. While looking through that topic I saw the
distinction of the Noahide laws and reference to Mormon’s agreeing with them,
even as they don’t consider themselves “Noahide”, basically due to the fact
that they don’t consider themselves “Gentile” Righteous but instead spiritual
members of the children of Israel and therefore can’t be Noahide.
The U.S. Congress endorsed the Noahide Laws
in 1991, via President George Bush Sr. at the
time. Yes, that includes “beheading” as a “civilized” law. Where that led me was the “unprecedented”
familiarity with the “eschatology” of both.
From
here, I ran into more coincidental parallels between the Mormons and Jewish
religions and this led me deeper into God’s True Word. We will continue that by clicking here.

be patient, I will install the link, it is a lot of information. Please keep checking back).
