Description
we are seeking to Gather the tribe of Ephriam and learn to live Gods higher laws so that Zion can be redeemed before the coming of Messiah ben Judah.
JST, Genesis 9:21–25.
Compare Genesis 9:16–17
21 And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant, which I made unto thy father Enoch; that, when men should keep all my commandments, Zion should again come on the earth, the city of Enoch which I have caught up unto myself.
22 And this is mine everlasting covenant, that when thy posterity shall embrace the truth, and look upward, then shall Zion look downward, and all the heavens shall shake with gladness, and the earth shall tremble with joy;
23 And the general assembly of the church of the firstborn shall come down out of heaven, and possess the earth, and shall have place until the end come. And this is mine everlasting covenant, which I made with thy father Enoch.
24 And the bow shall be in the cloud, and I will establish my covenant unto thee, which I have made between me and thee, for every living creature of all flesh that shall be upon the earth.
25 And God said unto Noah, This is the token of the covenant which I have established between me and thee; for all flesh that shall be upon the earth.

PLURAL MARRIAGE DONE AWAY
“The reason why the Church and Kingdom of God cannot advance without the Patriarchal Order of Marriage is that it belongs to this dispensation, just as baptism for the dead does, or any law or ordinance that belongs to a dispensation. Without it the Church cannot progress. (Life of Wilford Woodruff, p. 542)
“God has given me a revelation in regard to celestial marriage, I did not make it,… yet they would like us to tone that principle down and change it, and make it applicable to the views of the day. This we cannot do, nor can we interfere with any of the commandments of God to meet the persuasions and behests of men. I cannot do it and will not do it.” (John Taylor, J.D. 25:309)
“He cannot withdraw or renounce it. God has revealed it, and He has promised to maintain it, and to bless those who obey it….” (Oct. 6, 1885, Mill. Star 47:707)
But Today ….
“We have announced in previous conferences, as it was announced by President Woodruff, *** plural marriages have ceased in the Church. *** I want to say that we have been doing all in our power to prevent it or to stop it; and in order that we might do this, we have been seeking, to our utmost, to find men who have been the agents and the cause of leading people into it. We find it very difficult to trace them but when we do find them, and can prove it upon them, we will deal with them as we have dealt with others that we have been able to find.” (Joseph F. Smith, Conf. Rept., April 1911, p. 8)

“And after this time, your baptism for the dead, by those who are scattered abroad, are not acceptable unto me, saith the Lord. For it is ordained that in Zion, and in her stakes, and in Jerusalem, those places which I have appointed for refuge, shall be the places for your baptisms your dead.” (D. & C. 124:35-36)
“The whole of America is Zion itself from north to south, and is described by the Prophets, who declare that it is the Zion where the mountain of the Lord should be….” (T.P.J.S., p. 362)
“When the Savior comes, a thousand years will be devoted this work of redemption; and Temples will appear over this land of Joseph–North and South America–and also in Europe and elsewhere; and all the descendants of Shem, Ham, and Japheth who received not the Gospel in the flesh, must be officiated for in the Temples of God….” (Wilford Woodruff, J.D. 19:230)
“Wherefore the decree hath gone forth from the Father that they shall be gathered in unto one place upon the face of this land, to prepare their hearts and be prepared in all things against the day when tribulation and desolation are sent forth upon the wicked.” (D. & C. 29:8)

“Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.” (Revel. 2:5)
“And now I speak concerning baptism. Behold, elders, priests, and teachers were baptized; and they were not baptized save they brought forth fruit meet that they were worthy of it.” (Moroni 6:1)
“At this time came a revelation, that the Saints could be baptized and re-baptized when they chose….” (Brigham Young, J.D. 18:241)
“…the gospel has always been the same; the ordinances to fulfill its requirements, the same, and the officers to officiate, the same; and the signs and fruits resulting from the promises, the same;…” (T.P.J.S., p. 264)
“Shall we stop baptizing people and make no further efforts to establish the kingdom of God upon the earth, because certain ones have acted foolishly and perhaps wickedly? Do the actions of such people render the principles of the gospel without effect or the doctrines we teach untrue? I think you would not say so.” (John Taylor, J.D. 21:59)

“The First Presidency and Twelve have felt” (notice felt replaced revelation) prompted to order that “rebaptism ought to be stopped.” (Conf. Rept., Oct. 1897, p. 68)

“And let that which belongs to this people be appointed unto this people. And the money which is left unto this people–let there be an agent appointed unto this people, to take the money to provide food and raiment, according to the wants of this people. And let that which belongeth to this people not be taken and given unto that of another church.” (D. & C. 51:7,8,10)
Today ….
“The church has attained–through faithful tithes and shrewd investments and business operations–a spectacular wealth. It is fast becoming, if it is not already, the richest church of its size in the world. Unquestionably it controls the greatest aggregation of capital in the states of the Rocky Mountain area. *** A poor Mormon farmer near the hamlets of Moroni, Ephraim or Manti–educated to the high standards of his church–might occasionally bristle at some family sacrifice necessary to meet his tithe if the extent of church wealth were known to him.” (Esquire, “Utah: How Much Money Hath the Mormon Church?” Aug. 1962, see pp. 86-91)

The Lord speaking to the Twelve Apostles said, “Go ye and teach all nations.” (Matt. 28:16) And again, the Twelve are “called to go into all the world to preach my gospel.” (D. & C. 107:18)
“The Twelve will have no right to go into Zion, or of her stakes, and there undertake to regulate the affairs thereof…but it is their duty to go abroad and regulate all matters relative to the different branches of the Church.” (T.P.J.S., p. 74)
“They [the Twelve] are to travel and preach among the Gentiles, until the Lord shall command them to go to the Jews.” (D.H.C. 2:200; see D. & C. 107:33)
“What, says one, no seats provided for the Twelve; is not this their home? No, their homes are all over the earth preaching the Gospel, building up the kingdom, regulating the affairs of the kingdom of God upon the earth; and we take them in as visitors. Are there places to be provided for the Seventies? No, but for the First Presidency and the local authorities and not for the traveling ministry. The Twelve and the Seventies are travelling quorums to all the inhabitants of the earth.” (Brigham Young, Des. News, June 6, 1877)

17a. GATHERING OF ISRAEL
“And say unto them, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I will take the children of Israel from among the heathen, whither they be gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land.” (Ezek. 37:21; see also Deut. 30:3; Ezek. 36:24; Psalms 106:47; Psalms 26:9; Isa. 66:18; Jer. 31:10; Ezek. 11:17; John 11:52; Eph. 1:10)
“The doctrine of the gathering of the people of God, including Israel, is one so clearly predicted by the inspired writers, that it seems almost superfluous to refer to the numerous passages relating to it.” (Orson Pratt’s Works, p. 9)
“The Savior spoke in parable of the latter-day kingdom, and assured his disciples that when that kingdom was established, and preparatory to the end of the world, he would send his angels to the four corners of the earth, to gather the wheat into the garner, and the tares in bundles ready for the burning.” (Mill. Star 36:172)

PERSONAL TESTIMONY
“The weak things of the world shall come forth and break down the mighty and strong ones, that man should not counsel his fellow man, neither trust in the arm of flesh–But that every man might speak in the name of God the Lord, even the Savior of the world;…” (D. & C. 1:19-20)
“And every one that hearkeneth to the voice of the Spirit cometh unto God, even the Father.” (D. & C. 84:47)
“Reading the experience of others, or the revelation given to them, can never give us a comprehensive view of our condition and true relation to God.” (T.P.J.S., p. 324)
“If it was not for the religion I profess, which gives me to know something about the matter, by revelation, for myself, I would not have anything to do with religion at all.” (John Taylor, J.D. 1:150)
“Now those men or those women who know no more about the powers of God and the influences of the Holy Spirit than to be led entirely by another person suspending their own understanding and pinning their faith upon another’s sleeve, will never be capable of entering into the celestial glory to be crowned as they anticipate. They never will be capable of becoming Gods.” (Brigham Young, J.D. 1:312)
“Let every man and woman know themselves, whether their leaders are walking in the path the Lord dictates or not. This has been my exhortation continually.” (Brigham Young, J.D. 9:150)

Manifesting the Gentile Affliction www.blogtalkradio.com/thekingdomofgodornothing/2016/06/30/manifesting-the-gentile-affliction-on-zions-redemption-radio-06-29-2016 God calls and speaks to whomever he will when he wants His message delivered. There is no office, credential, position, or authority required, other than God’s word to one whom He has chosen. The message is the authority. Prophecy, seership, and revelation are spiritual gifts, not church offices. The church cannot “ordain” a man as prophet.Christ told us specifically to know true prophets by their fruits. If there are no fruits, there are no prophets.A message from God is identified as coming from God. We cannot claim something came from God simply because a particular man spoke it. God’s messengers clearly state the origin of the message.
Those called prophets in the LDS church exhibit no prophetic gifts, but rather live and function as wealthy, celebrity rulers over an earthly kingdom we call a church.
True messengers are almost never recognized and heeded, but rather are persecuted, cast out, and often killed. This pattern has persisted as long as mankind has been on this earth.
The LDS leaders and members make the unscriptural claim that it is utterly impossible for them to lead us astray, even though every prior dispensation was led astray and degenerated into apostasy. Somehow, we’re supposedly immune to this constant pattern of human religious failing. Because we’re special. Or chosen. Or something.
But God has indeed followed the prophetic pattern again in our day, to begin restoring what was lost with the death of Joseph Smith. The Lord has sent a man named Denver Snuffer to deliver a message.
True to the prophetic pattern, the message has been rejected by those who claim they cannot be deceived, and the messenger has been cast out.

Restoration Interrupted
www.blogtalkradio.com/thekingdomofgodornothing/2016/06/29/restoration-interrupted-on-zions-redemption-radio-06-28-2016
http://www.totheremnant.com/2015/02/prophets-part-6-another-prophet-now-is.html
And the Lord will set his hand again the second time to restore his people from their lost and fallen state. Wherefore, he will proceed to do a marvelous work and a wonder among the children of men.
—2 Nephi 25:17
Let’s start with a very important question: Why is there a need for a return to the prophetic pattern in our day? The answer will require us to look at our history; if we want to understand where we are, it’s important to first understand how we got here. The Latter-day Restoration of the Gospel started in 1820 with Joseph Smith’s first vision. This signaled the end of the long night of apostasy as the Lord sent new revelation into the world and sent a true messenger to teach a true message. Faithful to the prophetic pattern, the one God called was a religious outsider, without title, credentials or worldly authority, yet he spoke for the Lord, having received the message by direct contact with Christ and angels. New records came forth and gospel truths long lost were again taught on earth. The flood of heavenly light between 1820 and 1836 was remarkable and miraculous.
“they draw near to me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me, they teach for doctrines the commandments of men, having a form of godliness, but they deny the power thereof.” (JSH 1:19)

Prophets, Part 3:
We Thank Thee, O God, for a Princess
Therefore, thus saith the Lord: Because of the hardness of the hearts of the people of the Nephites, except they repent I will take away my word from them, and I will withdraw my Spirit from them, and I will suffer them no longer, and I will turn the hearts of their brethren against them.
—Helaman 13:8
In the first two posts in this series, we discussed the fruits of a prophet, and the standard set by the Lord for discerning a true prophet. "By their fruits ye shall know them." (Matthew 7:20)
We also covered the fact that, without the fruits of prophecy, visions, and revelation, it's impossible to tell if someone is a prophet, seer or revelator. The fruits come by gifts of the Spirit, not by virtue of any office in the church. Sadly, these fruits have been absent from the LDS church for quite a long time—that is, we cannot point to any new revelation, prophecy, or vision to the church in the last hundred or so years.
When I have pointed out this fact to my brothers and sisters in the church, and even church leaders, the most common reply is that we receive revelation at every General Conference. Indeed, some regard every talk by the members of the First Presidency or an apostle as revelation—because these men are sustained as prophets, seers and revelators.
I disagree. As I discussed previously, prophecy and revelation are different than inspiration. Many church leaders give inspired talks by the power of the Spirit, teaching great truths. Many General Conference addresses share this common inspiration and are filled with light. But revelation is something more. Prophecy is something different than just a great talk.
Conclusion of One Mighty ans Strong by Ogden Kraut.
www.blogtalkradio.com/thekingdomofgodornothing/2016/06/24/conclusion-of-the-book-one-mighty-and-strong-06-23-2016
The setting in order of the House of God will be a greater event than the Restoration. What failed in the beginning will succeed in the end. The miracles will be greater; the number of converts will be more numerous; the power and wealth of the Saints will be richer; and Zion—the New Jerusalem—will finally be built. Instead of the kingdoms of the world overcoming the Kingdom of God, it will be reversed.
The setting in order will be one of the greatest works of God among men. It will be called the “second great work” and a “marvelous work and a wonder”. Every true Saint should be eager and anxiously awaiting that event because Christ has promised, “Mine angels shall go up before you, and also my presence. . . . ” (D & C 103:20)
This will be the marvelous work and a wonder, for everything will change causing Babylon to fall and Zion to rise. The Saints will again seek for the redemption of Zion and the building of the New Jerusalem. They will be able to make that promised journey because Missouri will be swept clean of every image of Babylon and will be rebuilt according to the plan of God. Christ will reign personally on the earth as King of kings and Lord of lords, to give laws to the nations of the earth.
And “in that day shall the branch of the Lord be beautiful and glorious. . . and the earth shall be excellent and comely for them that are escaped of Israel.” (Isa. 4:2)
Then men will learn war no more and the earth shall have peace for a thousand years.

If the House of God is to be set in order, it means that it must first be out of order. This chapter will attempt to answer three major questions regarding the setting in order of the House of God:
When did it get out of order?How did it get out of order?What must be done to get it back in order?

CLAIMANTS TO THE TITLE CHAPTER 7 OF THE BOOK ONE MIGHTY AND STRONG.

http://ogdenkraut.com/?page_id=161
Even before the official 1905 statement was issued from the Church Presidency, several men were claiming the title of One Mighty and Strong:
There have arisen from time to time men of doubtful intelligence who have laid claim to be the one Mighty and Strong. * * * (CHMR 1:350)
It has been used by vain and foolish men to bolster up their vagaries of speculation, and in some cases their pretensions to great power and high positions they were to attain in the Church. (Des. News, Nov. 13, 1905)
One would think in such a matter as this that sufficient native modesty would assert itself to restrain a man from announcing himself as the one on whom such high honors are to be conferred, and who is to exercise such great powers in establishing the Saints in their inheritances. (Mess. of the F.P. 4:109)
And today men are still making this claim. So how can we distinguish the many from the one? In 1912 Joseph F. Smith, troubled by men who claimed to be the Mighty and Strong, gave the following warning in General Conference:
I know that the Lord will not raise up “Tom, Dick, or Harry”, here, there and everywhere, claiming to be Christ, or “One Mighty and Strong,” claiming to be [84] inspired and called to do some wonderful things. * * * Put that in your little notebooks now, and remember it. . . . (April Conf. Rept., 1912, p. 10)

FRANCIS DARTER’S STATEMENT
www.blogtalkradio.com/thekingdomofgodornothing/2016/06/21/francis-darters-statement-of-the-one-mighty-and-strong-06-20-2016
Francis M. Darter was a brilliant civil engineer and an avid student of the scriptures. He was strong minded with a firm conviction of the Gospel, and because of it he had the rare distinction of being excommunicated twice from the LDS Church. He wrote many books and pamphlets and often included information on the One Mighty and Strong.
Because of his extensive research and willingness to share the fruits thereof (even at the possible sacrifice of his Church membership), we can gain much by reading what he has recorded. Therefore, this chapter will include extracts pertaining to the One Mighty and Strong from his book entitled Redemption of Zion.
A Mighty and Strong One
Does Holy Writ refer to a future spiritual leader as “A Mighty and Strong One?” Yes. In the 28th chapter of Isaiah we find a detailed record foretelling the Lord’s sending forth “A Mighty and Strong One” to bring a blessing to the righteous, but judgment against the wicked, the oppressor and the slothful servant. His mission will be in the last generation, “in that day,” among a certain people who will be living in “the fat valley,” a people who are “of Ephraim.” Their organizations will possess “priests” and “prophets”. Isaiah refers not to the faithful and strong but to the weak ones among these people as “the Drunkards of Ephraim.” (Isa. 28:1-7)

SIDNEY SPERRY’S STATEMENT For years Church leaders had been receiving and hearing reports from apostates, Fundamentalists, and questioning members about the “setting in order of the house of God.” These rumblings were disturbing and often created an embarrassment since they inferred that the One Mighty and Strong was to come to set the Church in order because it was out of order. This matter was often referred to religion professors and other religious scholars in order to rebuff this unsavory publicity.
This explains why Dr. Sidney B. Sperry, BYU professor, attempted to interpret these questionable verses in the 85th section. In his Compendium he explained:
A little knowledge of Church history and a prayerful reading of the revelation should produce the answers. The reader will recall that on at least two previous occasions the Lord had reason to chastise Bishop Edward Partridge. (See 50:39 and 64:17) Despite the good qualities of Elder Partridge, he seems to have had a stubborn streak in him, and on occasions the natural practical bent of the man seems to have been in conflict with some of the directions given by the Lord to govern the Church. In July, 1831, the Almighty gave directions (57:7) that Brother Partridge should “stand in the office to which I have appointed him, and divide unto the saints their inheritance, even as I have commanded.” And in the revelation we are now dealing with, inheritances are [36] being considered, and the Saints we are told receive them “legally from the Bishop,” meaning, of course, from Bishop Partridge (vs. 1).
Chapter One of One Mighty and Strong by Ogden Kraut
http://ogdenkraut.com/?page_id=161
One of the unique features of the Gospel Restoration in these latter days is its endurance. In every previous dispensation, the Gospel was gradually changed until it was lost; however, with Joseph Smith’s Restoration, it will continue with a few good men, even if God has to send His messengers to protect them from destruction.
When the Savior established the Gospel among the Jews in the year 30 AD, it took only another 60 years for the last apostle to be found alive. The inspired apostles were killed, and only uninspired apostles, using human wisdom, continued to represent the Gospel.
In the latter days the Lord has promised that His Priesthood would continue until the end of the Millennium. However, one passage of scripture, often interpreted in many different ways, indicates that at some point it will get out of order. But the Lord has promised that He will protect his “house” from getting too far out of order, and it is because of this prediction that many Saints expect to see some marvelous events take place.
The fulfillment of the scriptural promise made in Section 85 of the Doctrine and Covenants—that God will send One Mighty and Strong to set in order the house of God—will be one of the major future events of this dispensation, and certainly one of the most interesting.

MODERN CRUCIBLES
… and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years. (Rev. 20:4)
Today is not without martyrs. Men are being tortured, imprisoned and killed for their testimony of Christ. Behind the Iron and Bamboo curtains, millions upon millions suffer torture and death in every conceivable form. The example of their courage should spark fire in the faith of the men who bear the Priesthood. But these Christians do not die in vain. Their testimony shall yet stand as a witness to the nations of the earth.
It is under pressure that men display strength or weakness. Temptations and opposition measure a man’s faith and fortitude. In a Gethsemane men must choose between their will or the will of God, and many of those who prove faithful are often brought to Calvary. But it is also in the torment of trial that men excuse themselves from the battle of resistence and thereby succumb to the temptation of peace at any price. In these trials of life a man’s strength is measured. True strength is not measured in muscle or mind, nor in social or financial power, but rather in the mastery of himself. Without overcoming the opposition of evil forces, no man can gain a crown.

Battle Of Short Creek
Among the rights of citizens are those rights for the pursuit of happiness of our own choosing. The children chose to stay with their parents, but the “law” was going to force them into foster homes. Tears from children and parents had no influence upon these officials. But there would be a reckoning because Jesus had said:
Whosoever shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea. (Matt. 18:6)
It is a disgrace that common citizens of America have to present the fundamental constitutional laws to the attention of its learned officials. Such tyrants are only prompted by religious bigotry. The greater crimes were not committed by the victims, but by the persecutors. Official villains were corrupting the courts, shattering the Constitution, and bringing abuse upon the rights of men, women and children by such illegal prosecutions.

MODERN CRUCIBLES
… and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years. (Rev. 20:4)
Today is not without martyrs. Men are being tortured, imprisoned and killed for their testimony of Christ. Behind the Iron and Bamboo curtains, millions upon millions suffer torture and death in every conceivable form. The example of their courage should spark fire in the faith of the men who bear the Priesthood. But these Christians do not die in vain. Their testimony shall yet stand as a witness to the nations of the earth.
