The Pleadings of Our Prophet

I'm someone who makes observations about the world around me and who specifically notices patterns. One area in which patterns jump out at me are in the talks that I hear during General Conference. One pattern that finally dawned on me, during the most recent conference, was the common use of words of exhortation from our prophet, President Nelson. In this video I attempt to explain my observations, through a video presentation.
This is the first video of this type that I have ever made. My videos generally consist of personal video footage and photos with music interspersed throughout. Most, if not all, tell a story about people: my family, friends, neighbors, strangers even. This video is a move out of my comfort zone of hundreds of videos consisting of what I just described. So please be kind. I hope that the message I am trying to convey comes across in a clear and precise manner.
I used what I have at my disposal: Keynote, Final Cut Pro, Quicktime, Voice Memo, Google Search and Scripture Citation Index.
Please note that I do not share my slides with viewers. All videos are for viewing purposes only. Thank you for understanding.

    Thank you for putting this summary together. Very helpful for focused study. Indeed, Presidents Hinkley, Monson and particularly Nelson have been preparing this generation of saints to reach out to others (make friends, give service), share the Restored Gospel (gather scattered Israel), be more self reliant (physically and spiritually- home storage, personal gospel study), repent and follow the Savior (get on and stay on covenant path), and let God prevail in our lives (learn to Hear Him, seek personal revelation, expect miracles).

    Thanks YamaBeth - this was so awesome. Here are some of my favorite things he has ask us to do that I noticed 1. "I call" upon you, my dear brothers and sisters, to become this righteous people who are able, ready, and worthy to receive the Lord when He comes again, a people who have already chosen Jesus Christ over this fallen world, a people who rejoice in their agency to live the higher, holier laws of Jesus Christ. 2. "Please ponder" that “Each person who makes covenants in baptismal fonts and in temples-and keeps them-has increased access to the power of Jesus Christ.” “Making and keeping covenants actually makes life easier!” 3." My plea" to you this morning is to find rest from the intensity, uncertainty, and anguish of this world by overcoming the world through your covenants with God. Let Him know through your prayers and your actions that you are serious about overcoming the world. Ask Him to enlighten your mind and send the help you need. Each day, record the thoughts that come to you as you pray; then follow through diligently. Spend more time in the temple, and seek to understand how the temple teaches you to rise above this fallen world. I love these!

    This is a wonderful compilation. I'm not sure when the second coming is either. I believe given President Nelson's age a lot of his way of expressing urgency is knowing his time to teach us is short. He will not be with us much longer and he's trying urgently to give us all the counsel he's prompted to give before he is through. For us whether the second coming is soon or generations from now does not matter. We still most likely will die and stand before the judgement the longer we have practiced to be in alignment with the pleas of our living prophet the greater our joy! The longer we procrastinate the guidance the deeper our regret and remorse.

    Notwithstanding, can you bear a strong critique? I worry that members (those born and raised in it) have no real 'root' in that volume of scripture that has been around the longest: being told that it is Scripture "as far as it is translated correctly". >>> With that, though, you have no idea about the truthfulness of 'any' of it, because you (as a whole) will not study it diligently and seek to see God's hand in it. The Jews certainly focus on the Torah (The first 5 books), and sometimes "miss out" by not reading the Neviim (The Prophets), etc. The predecessors of the Jews (i.e., the whole House of Israel) were very aware of the presence of those professing to be prophets but who really weren't. Real prophets (viz., those who prophesied) were not known to be such, among the people, until 'after' their prophecy was fulfilled: and, if their prophecy failed, the people certainly dismissed them, out of hand. Prophets (anciently) had "the gift of prophecy": they were not "called and set apart" to be a prophet (neither were they "anointed" to become such). >>> Those most familiar with the Old Testament will see that this was so. >>> David was "anointed to become king". (Not so, with prophets.) It's OK that Russell M. Nelson is not a prophet (i.e., he who has never prophesied is simply not a prophet). He is not a seer, either: not having the gift to "see beforehand" calamities in the Earth, and to then give a voice of warning. >>> President Nelson has said, "We cannot know what the future holds." (I'm afraid so, President Nelson: a Seer who does not 'see' is not a Seer.) Okay, Okay! Nelson certainly "is" something you can be proud of: he is... ...an educator ...a motivator ...a policy maker ...a great chief executive officer ...head of the LDS corporate hierarchy (holding the office of president). ...a 'preacher' ...a sometimes pontificator You really need to read the story of the prophet Samuel (Ist and 2nd Samuel, in the Old Testament). >>> The differences are glaring, to those who see the Biblical narrative for what it is and make no excuses for themselves, for any lack of understanding. >>>> Lax and Lazy come to mind: taken right out of the mouth of President Nelson.

    When you seek answers from the Book of Mormon instead of the Bible, God can't help you because you have turned your back on Him. Therefore this leaves the door open for Satan (II Corinthians 11:14-15) to step into your life with a false christ or prophet showing you signs and wonders to lead you away from the real Jesus of the Bible who is God the Son 2nd person of the Trinity. God Himself warns us about this in MATTHEW 24:23-24 "Then if anyone says to you, Look, here is the Christ! or There! do not believe it. For false christs and false prophets will rise and show great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect..." Mormons teach and believe that their jesus is the brother of Satan, which contradicts what God says in His Bible that Jesus is God the Son 2nd person of the Trinity. So Mormons, which Jesus do you believe in? A). Your jesus of the Book of Mormon who is the brother of Satan. OR B). The Jesus of the Bible who is God the Son 2nd person of the Trinity.

    @@trellkennett I don't know that he has actually prophesied anything. Most of what they call 'new revelation' usually contradicts or changes the old revelations. For example, 2015 The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has instructed local church leaders that same-sex couples are apostates and that children living with them can't take part in church activities until they're adults and leave home April 4, 2019 The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, also known as the Mormon church, will now baptize children of parents who are gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender, the church announced Thursday. ************************* Blacks are denied the priesthood. 1939 The negro is an unfortunate man. He has been given a black skin... But that is as nothing compared with that greater handicap that he is not permitted to receive the Priesthood and the ordinances of the temple, necessary to prepare men and women to enter into and enjoy a fulness of glory in the celestial kingdom. George F. Richards - Mormon apostle Conference Report, April 1939 1958 As a result of his rebellion, Cain was cursed with a dark skin; he became the father of the Negroes, and those spirits who are not worthy to receive the priesthood are born through this lineage... Noah's son Ham married Egyptus*, a descendant of Cain, thus preserving the Negro lineage through the flood. Bruce R. McConkie - Mormon apostle Mormon Doctrine, p.102,477 *Note: The Bible and Book of Mormon do not mention Egyptus. NEW 'REVELATION' Thu, 06.08.1978 The Mormon Church Allows Blacks Into Priesthood The First Presidency of the Church of Latter-Day Saints said that a new revelation had been given: "We have pleaded long and earnestly in behalf of these, our faithful brethren, spending many hours in the upper room of the Temple supplicating the Lord for divine guidance. He has heard our prayers, and by revelation has confirmed that the long-promised day has come when every faithful, worthy man in the church may receive the holy priesthood, with power to exercise its divine authority and enjoy with his loved ones every blessing that flows therefrom, including the blessings of the temple. Accordingly, all worthy male members of the church may be ordained to the priesthood without regard for race or color." ********************************* The same thing happened with polygamy. Joseph Smith got a revelation to practice 'plural marriage.' Then when the United States congress passed a law threatening to seize their assets and shut them down the prophet got a 'revelation' saying that they must stop practicing polygamy. OLD REVELATION July, 1843 "Revelation" on Plurality of Wives (Doctrine and Covenants, Section 132) Joseph Smith dictates a "revelation" requiring the practice of polygamy to obtain exaltation: becoming gods (v.1-6, 20). This revelation would not be canonized until 1876 as Section 132 of the Doctrine and Covenants. It remains part of the LDS canon today. Up until now Joseph hid his marital trysts from his first wife Emma. Joseph's brother Hyrum attempted to present this "divine revelation" to win Emma's approval of her husband's behavior. Emma rejected it. The revelation specifically states that if Emma rejects it she would be destroyed (v.54,64). That did not happen. However it was Joseph who died within a year from now. Emma, who was 39 years at this time lived to be 75. February 19, 1887 Edmunds-Tucker Act The United States Congress passes the Edmunds-Tucker Act which permits the government to seize assets and disincorporate the LDS church for continuing to practice polygamy against the law. The bill is enacted into law March 3. NEW REVELATION The Historical Record 6:233-234 October, 1890 The 1890 Manifesto: Official Declaration-1 Under increasing pressure from the federal government, including being disincorporated, the sitting Mormon prophet, Wilford Wilson, issued a statement denying that the Mormon church was practicing polygamy. Wilford Woodruff The Utah Commission, in their recent report to the Secretary of the Interior, allege that plural marriages are still being solemnized... also that in public discourses the leaders of the Church have taught, encouraged and urged the continuance of the practice of polygamy-I, therefore, as President of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, do hereby, in the most solemn manner, declare that these charges are false. We are not teaching polygamy or plural marriage, nor permitting any person to enter into its practice. Wilford Woodruff - Mormon prophet Doctrine and Covenants, Official Declaration-1 Note: About a year later Wilford began referring to the statement as a "revelation". It was canonized in 1908.

He and the Mormon church claim that Jesus was the spirit brother of Satan (a different Jesus and gospel than that of the Bible). He said God told him he would build his temple in St Louis, MO; which he didn't, making himself a false prophet; he said Jesus told him, "no church was right before Him and that he wanted JS to build the right one". But that goes against Scripture which says "I will build my church and the Gates of Hell will not prevail"; meaning God always has a remnant of true believers.
