This article, "The Exalted Lord" was part of a book called, "Shedding Light on the New Testament", originally published ...

In 1834, Jonathan Hale and his wife Olive, were baptized as members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. That began a journey of soul stretching, discipleship for both. They were determined to serve the Lord at all costs and to do whatever was asked of them as they followed the prophet Joseph Smith and began to serve in God's Kingdom on Earth.

In the book of Revelation and in various other scriptures, there is reference to a group of High Priests who will be called and elected to bring others of the house of Israel to the Church of the Firstborn in the last days.

In a BYU Hawaii speech given on November 23, 2010, then Brother Clark G. Gilbert gave a talk about private and institutional frontiers. He related some advice that Brother Kim B. Clark gave to him, "If you want to know the Savior, go to the frontier because that is where you will see him in action. It is at the frontier where he does His work." When we look at the work of the Gathering of Israel through that lens, we understand that there is a largely untapped frontier, the Spirit...

In Isaiah 58:12 we read a prophesy and a description of a distinct group of saints living in the latter days. "And they that shall be of thee shall build the old waste places: thou shalt raise up the foundations of many generations; and thou shalt be called, The repairer of the breach, The restorer of paths to dwell in." Since the days of Adam, many have chosen to walk away from the covenant path or have not been given the opportunity to make sacred covenants with the Savior. The generations,...
