Liberty

I want to thank CDS for giving me a heads up on a fascinating article that was supposedly written by a retired judge.

I hold CDS personally responsible for creating a lot of havoc around here as he is the one that sent me an incredible quote by Lyman Wight a few months ago.

Lyman Wight is an individual that I knew virtually nothing about at the time. The quote got me researching his life which led to my post about him;

Baneemy- The Wild Ram of the Mountains « Because I am Watching

That research then led me to the Morley Farm incident, which reminded me of the secret document I had acquired in Kirtland and began my current series on "Searching for 23 High Priests and also a short article on patriarchal priesthood.

The series on the 23 High Priests has really filled in several missing pieces of the church history puzzle and has taken on a life of its own.

Searching for the Holy Order and 23 High Priests- Part One


Searching for the Holy Order and 23 High Priests- Part Two


Searching for the Holy Order and 23 High Priests- Part Three


Searching for the Holy Order and 23 High Priests- Part 4


During that series I have had several epiphanies pertaining to priesthood, polygamy and several other doctrinal items.

That series has afforded me the opportunity to offend people to a much greater degree than I have been able to do in the past. In short, the information I have uncovered is, like just about everything else I have written, very disruptive.

But getting back to the most recent find that CDS has shared with us, here is his comment;

"…Have you checked out The Vatican-led Illuminati Matrix at Arctic Beacon. It's very interesting how our country was founded and how it's ran through the queen and the pope and how we all live as fictitous persons or corporations instead of sovereign individuals. I'm trying to wrap my mind around this versus what we hear in church all the time about the founding fathers and the constitution is for our benefit, very eye opening, I think it's anyone's time to read the 3 piece article written by a retired judge on how things really work." http://www.arcticbeacon.com/greg/

I have known for a long time that the Black Pope, and the Jesuits are the hidden power that controls England and the illuminati, and about their involvement in the assassinations of Lincoln and Kennedy, etc.

I have alluded to some of this in previous posts.

Black and White Robes- Part One

Black and White Robes Part Two

I have only been reading the article that CDS refers us to for a few minutes but wanted to share the following quotes from it and then share some observations;

"We are not free men; we are slaves, and bound to our Masters by adhesion contracts and secret Trusts. The goal of the Masters and their (agents) our elected officials, is to keep the people oppressed and subservient to them! As the Masters agents, they utilize propaganda techniques through government controlled schools; churches; the media and mind control by force and or the threat of force through the courts and police enforcement!

..The Treaty of 1783, known as the Treaty of Peace, signed subsequent to the Revolutionary War; was a Treaty between King George, the Holy Roman Church and the representatives of the Corporate United States. The opening statement is written in Olde English and when interpreted means: "The King claims that the Pope is the Vicar of Christ and that God gave the King the power to declare that no man can ever own property because it goes against the tenets of his Church, the Vatican/The Holy Roman Church and because he is the Elector of the Holy Roman Empire." [This is why no person or company can ever own real estate in America!] And the Founding Father's agreed to that Declaration!"

Here are a few thoughts about how the above information relates to and provides context to the restoration movement, end times prophecy and modern revelation;

I have posted before about the prophecy contained in Genesis 15 and how latter day Israel was to be "afflicted" for 400 years in a strange land. The book of Acts summaries this prophecy as well but uses the term "bondage" to describe the condition that the pilgrims (that God identifies as the children of Israel in modern revelation) and their descendants would experience in this country.

I realize that many people reject my interpretation of the prophecy in Gen 15 largely because they have been conditioned to believe that this nation has always or at least for large amounts of time, been completely FREE and that we have not been afflicted or in bondage for 400 years.

Although the allusion of freedom and the partial freedom that has been provided has been important and did enable the beginning of the restoration of the gospel to take place, America has not been totally free.

Far from it.

There have been sinister forces at place from the very beginning.

Old Scratch is the God of this world...

There are only a few instances wherein a Zion was established or other unique circumstances that enabled the inhabitants of the world to be free from the insidious bondage that Satan puts them in.

With the context provided by the quote from the article, lets review what the Lord told the saints in 1831, less than one year after the restored church had been legally organized;

"For all flesh is corrupted before me; and the powers of darkness prevail upon the earth, among the children of men, in the presence of all the hosts of heaven— Which causeth silence to reign, and all eternity is pained, and the angels are waiting the great command to reap down the earth, to gather the tares that they may be burned; and, behold, the enemy is combined.

And now I show unto you a mystery, a thing which is had in secret chambers, to bring to pass even your destruction in process of time, and ye knew it not,,, And again, I say unto you that the enemy in the secret chambers seeketh your lives.

Ye hear of wars in far countries, and you say that there will soon be great wars in far countries, but ye know not the hearts of men in your own land.

I tell you these things because of your prayers; wherefore, treasure up wisdom in your bosoms, lest the wickedness of men reveal these things unto you by their wickedness, in a manner which shall speak in your ears with a voice louder than that which shall shake the earth; but if ye are prepared ye shall not fear.

And that ye might escape the power of the enemy, and be gathered unto me a righteous people, without spot and blameless

Wherefore, for this cause I gave unto you the commandment that ye should go to the Ohio; and there I will give unto you my law; and there you shall be endowed with power from on high"

These passages are amazing, yet do we really get what was being said and how literal the Lord was being in his warning.

God was letting the Saints know that sinister powers were already organized and controlling the nation they were living in and that the very reason they were being sent to Ohio, is so that they would be called to a special conference at the Morley Farm where they would be endowed with the Melchizedek priesthood, have the land of Zion identified, be organized according to the law of the Celestial Kingdom and establish Zion!

That was their only means of escape from the enemy!

the laws and commandments contained in section 42 was the law they needed after establishing Zion to protect themselves from the enemy that was plotting their destruction.

Subsequent revelations would assure them that ultimately the kingdom of God would not be overcome, but they, the Saints would be temporarily overcome if they failed to be obedient and to establish Zion by the appointed date of Sept 11 1836.

They were promised several times, in several ways, that if they were not obedient, they would be overcome by the enemy..

And guess what…. THEY WERE!

AND WE ARE!

I have also written posts explaining that the following prophecy contained in section 87 is not speaking about race riots or the oppression of the Blacks. It is speaking about all of the inhabitants of this entire nation;

"And it shall come to pass that slaves shall rise up against their masters, who shall be marshaled and disciplined for war…"

Those slaves are the American people!

We have been slaves to a false system for 400 years and we have been too blind to see the darkness and bondage that we have been in.

If you have not had your eyes opened to the things I am speaking about and if you read the article that CDS is referring to and other related articles it will slowly begin to dawn on you that you and your forefathers and those who originally came here from England for freedom have been in one level of bondage or another in this land for 400 years.

It is interesting that CDS sent me this article at this time because I have been watching a video series that is very much related to what his article is speaking about.

It points out that Geoge Bush introduces the "New World Order" concept on Sept 11 (I forget the year...)

Is that a coincidence?

The Lord commands his Saints to establish the NEW WORLD ORDER of Zion by September 11 1836 and old Scratch, the great imitator, has his minions announce their NEW WORLD ORDER on September 11th… how fitting!

The ironies of the twilight zone we are living in are amazing.

The inhabitants of this land have never known what true liberty is.

Notice the following passages from modern revelation that speak about the true liberty that is coming when the Servants return;


4 Therefore, tarry ye, and labor diligently, that you may be perfected in your ministry to go forth among the Gentiles for the last time, as many as the mouth of the Lord shall name, to bind up the law and seal up the testimony, and to prepare the saints for the hour of judgment which is to come;

85 That their souls may escape the wrath of God, the desolation of abomination which awaits the wicked, both in this world and in the world to come. Verily, I say unto you, let those who are not the first elders continue in the vineyard until the mouth of the Lord shall call them, for their time is not yet come; their garments are not clean from the blood of this generation.

86 Abide ye in the liberty wherewith ye are made free entangle not yourselves in sin, but let your hands be clean, until the Lord comes.

87 For not many days hence and the earth shall tremble and reel to and fro as a drunken man; and the sun shall hide his face, and shall refuse to give light; and the moon shall be bathed in blood; and the stars shall become exceedingly angry, and shall cast themselves down as a fig that falleth from off a fig-tree.

88 And after your testimony cometh wrath and indignation upon the people.


The Servants are going to return just in time to offer the warning voice, dispense the saving ordinances of the gospel and gather out the elect.

They will declare the true LIBERTY that only comes when the kingdom of God is fully established on the earth.

They will get here just in time to warn us of the DESOLATION OF ABOMINATION that is about to be unleashed on this unsuspecting world.

I've been reading the judges lectures and find them resurrecting past resentments against Babylon.

I find I am contemplating how to flee Babylon. Do we do it legally as in untwisting the legal contracts we're been duped into entering into in the first place.

Like the marriage contract. Do we need to have our marriages annulled?

Is there anyway to reclaim our children from their Birth Certificates?

How do we claim our freedom!!!

I found his explanation about what to say in a court of law fascinating but I have no faith that the court would honor the legality of what you said.

Is there some things we can do to begin to flee Babylon before the servants come?

We desperately need Gods servants.

Malachi

I am embarrassed to say that after reading part of that article and then being inspired by it to publish this post, I have not yet gone back to complete the article yet.

I do think I am familiar with the general idea pertaining to the contracts we have been duped into that bind us down.

I know there are lots of people who passionately feel that we can wake up and use the power of knowledge to get out of those contracts.. I would like to think that is the case, however I don't think so.

My feeling is that it now takes the servants and the power of the priesthood to break the bonds.

Section 44 which was the commandment for the elders to gather for the special conference at the Morley Farm, addresses the breaking of bonds which the enemy uses to enslave the Lords people.

It makes me wonder if in fact this commandment will have a dual fulfillment;

"Behold, thus saith the Lord unto you my servants, it is expedient in me that the elders of my church should be called together, from the east and from the west, and from the north and from the south, by letter or some other way.

And it shall come to pass, that inasmuch as they are faithful, and exercise faith in me, I will pour out my Spirit upon them in the day that they assemble themselves together.

And it shall come to pass that they shall go forth into the regions round about, and preach repentance unto the people.

And many shall be converted, insomuch that ye shall obtain power to organize yourselves according to the laws of man;

That your enemies may not have power over you; that you may be preserved in all things; that you may be enabled to keep my laws; that every bond may be broken wherewith the enemy seeketh to destroy my people.

Behold, I say unto you, that ye must visit the poor and the needy and administer to their relief, that they may be kept until all things may be done according to my law which ye have received. Amen."

I absolutely love that promise;

"that you may be enabled to keep my laws; that every bond may be broken wherewith the enemy seeketh to destroy my people."

I have a hope that the servants will break the bonds which bind us down and make us slaves.

Malachi said...

Yes, that is comforting and I believe the proper way to go is to wait for the servants. I appreciate the time we've had to prepare our minds and hearts. We've learned a lot even these last few months. But the inclination is to get the cart in front of the horse.

We have been separating ourselves from Babylon through the years but in mostly subtle ways. spiritual, psychological, emotional, medical ways. Ways in which the powers that be don't really care about. They will resist the separation when we want to leave Babylon in physical, financial and legal ways.

There is one phrase in those verses that peeks my curiosity.

"to organize yourselves according to the laws of man"

I wonder what all that entails.

To me one of the things that it could be referring to is purchasing the land that we move on to so "that your enemies may not have power over you".

"to organize yourselves according to the laws of man"

I guess I always assumed that God was telling them to purchase lands and create deeds in conformance with the prevailing laws at the time.

But it certainly could mean something other than or in addition to that.

Hi Watcher,

A couple of things, on the "Believe all Things" blog he posted this quote from Pres. Taylor to Baron Rothschild.

In looking still forward we find that there are other things ahead of us. One thing is the building of Temples, and that is a very important item, and ought to rest with force upon the minds of all good Saints. I remember, some time ago, having a conversation with Baron Rothschild, a Jew.

I was showing him the Temple here, and said he—“Elder Taylor, what do you mean by this Temple? What is the object of it? Why are you building it?” Said I, “Your fathers had among them Prophets, who revealed to them the mind and will of God; we have among us Prophets who reveal to us the mind and will of God, as they did. One of your Prophets said—“The Lord whom ye seek shall suddenly come to his Temple, but who may abide the day of his coming? For he shall sit as a refiner’s fire and a purifier of silver.”

“Now,” said I, “Sir, will you point me out a place on the face of the earth where God has a Temple?” Said he, “I do not know of any.” “You remember the words of your Prophets that I have quoted?”

Isn't it interesting how he quoted the Malachi scripture as proof of Temples being the "Lord's House" even though Lord was not capitilized as you pointed out in one of your fine blogs. So we take it to mean some other God, like the God of this world, and Pres. Taylor quotes it as referring to the savior.

I also was re reading over there the Lorenzo Snow account told by his daughter of his visit from Jesus Christ in the SL Temple upon Pres Woodruffs death. This actually surprises me since I kind of get the feeling that prophets weren't necessarily called out by God after JS. Just wanted your take on that and also John Taylor claims to have the savior visit him regarding not doing away with Polygamy...lies, deceit, what think ye?

The following is a response from Heber J Grant to a woman that wrote to him asking him if any presidents of the Church had seen the Savior since the Prophet Joseph Smith;


" Dear Sister:

Answering your letter of the 12th.

I know of no instance where the Lord has appeared to an individual since His appearance to the Prophet Joseph Smith.

Sincerely your brother,

[signed] Heber J. Grant (1)

I find it extremely difficult to believe that after a long time of the heavens being sealed, Wilford Woodruff would not make it abundantly clear, at least to his brethren, if not to the church, that the heavens were once again open.

I seem to recall reading another version of the story wherein the Savior told Wilford that he was appearing in the stairway instead of the Holy of Holies because the church was out of the way...

I am going to try to find that version.

Anyway, as with many other issues, the doctrine of polygamy is central to the issue for obvious reasons.

The truth or falsehood of the Spiritual Wife doctrine becomes a huge issue regarding whether or not the heavens were sealed.

I am currently doing an in-depth analysis of section 132, passage by passage, comparing each doctrine in it to what is taught in the four standard works which is sure to give people heart-burn.

That actually sounds great! I would love to study 132 in that way. I might have to carve out some time to do just that---or I'll just wait for you to present me with all your hard work. LOL

Watcher, Did you every find the other version of this story? I think its of Lorenzo Snow. I'm trying to find the full account of this incident but I keep coming up with the same story about how jesus told him to form the first presidency immediately instead of waiting?

Thanks,

Sputnik-

Thank you for the correction, it was Lorenzo Snow not Wilford Woodruff.

My research thus far indicates that in fact there is no other more detailed published account of the story told by Snow's daughter.

I believe there is an oral tradition by some LDS fundamentalists that claim that there were more details implying that the church was in apostasy and that is why the visit took place in the stair well instead of the holy of holies, and that the additional info has been withheld.

However it is all hearsay as far as I can tell.

When I tried to track down the fundamentalist version of the story I was told that Ogden Kraut may have been the one that spoke of the other version of the story but when I went to the website done by Ogden's son, I could only find the traditional published version that contained few details.
