Satan's Real Plan

For roughy 50 years I was taught by my LDS teachers and leaders that Satan wanted to force all of us to do the right thing in his misguided plan to save humanity and steal GOD's honor. His plan was simply one of coercion. 

That was not his plan.

Who the heck would go along with such nonsense? People agreeing to be slaves? Not a chance in outer darkness.

Moses 4 verse 3 

Most High God speaking; "...Satan rebelled against me, and sought to destroy the agency of man..."

What Satan attempted to do was present a plan where agency (aka accountability) had no place in this life. In essence his idea was to allow us to do whatever we wanted without consequences. 

Now, that is an attractive plan. I work with lazy teenagers, and they are constantly trying to avoid  consequences. Satan's plan appealed to the weak spirits. Some of them were even foolish enough to refuse to repent in the life before this one. They have followed him straight to a hell that never ends.

Moses 4:3 could be worded "Satan rebelled against me, and sought to eliminate accountability for people's behavior."

He is still using these tactics today. He gets parents to be a child's wish-granter. He has governments under his control (and they are all under his control) to promise people something for nothing. He gets religions to promote salvation via membership and attendance. It seems to be working quite well with billions of people.

Start taking responsibility for your actions. You can only control yourself. It is Satan that wants to control everyone. He wants slaves, but he is not using coercion to control them. He is using a false promise freedom. Cain thought he was "free" when his took this life of his brother Abel. 

For the semi-religious folks he uses the concept of"GOD is going to save everyone regardless of behavior." For the religious zealots he uses "GOD is only going to save Mormons (or Jews, or Catholics, or Muslims, or Protestants).

For the atheists and cowardly agnostics, the devil uses the ridiculous idea that "there is no GOD." Of course that means, "there is no devil."

There is a GOD MOST HIGH.

There is GOD the SON (JESUS).

There is an adversary trying to make you as miserable as he is.

There are judgements coming. Some occur at a personal level is this life. There is a preliminary one for everyone at death, and a final judgement for this phase of existence when we are resurrected.

Earthquake in New York is a Warning

 I live in California and earthquakes are just part of the experience here. New York is different. What if the recent 4.8 earthquake in New York is a warning from GOD? My best guess (and this is the guess of a sinner) is that New York has had time to decide what to do about abortion since the Supreme Court overturned Roe V Wade. You can currently get an abortion in New York for any reason in the first 24 week period. GOD might be against abortion for any time period or any reason. Certainly 24 weeks seems excessive by any standard of common sense. If GOD mandated an earthquake in California, another home of infanticide, no one would think anything happened out of the ordinary. Have an earthquake in the Empire state (empire of secret murder) and you might get a few people wondering what is going on. I am a firm believer in targeted strikes by the Almighty. Everything from the  angel Moroni falling off  temples, to unusual weather, to Lincoln being shot by John Wilkes Booth...

France to be Destroyed

  I am sure you are aware the France has become the first sovereign state in the history of the world to make abortion a constitutional right. It makes sense, this is same country that basically laid down for Hitler at the start of WWII. The French are consistently foolish and cowardly. Based on the Lehite cities in the Book of Mormon, I predict (not prophesy) that France will one day soon be destroyed. Why? "The blood of the saints" (aborted children) cries from the ground to the GOD of this Earth, Jesus Christ. I have a strong feeling He has had enough of listening to the distress calls of people whose second estate has been horrifically terminated before it began. When the day of mercy runs out, the day of justice begins. Will it start with France? The US is not going to fare much better, but at least we have not as yet made abortion a constitutional right. If that does happen, you may want to move to El Salvador, Nicaragua, Honduras, Madagascar, or the Dominican Republic....

17 Million Mormons?

Dr. Ryan Cragun has done some excellent research on the decline of religion generally (secularization). He grew up LDS in beautiful Morgan, Utah (up Ogden Canyon), served a mission to Costa Rica in the 1990s, and then left the church in 2004. His latest work turned up the fact that Utah is no longer a majority Mormon state. The LDS church via its media holdings in Utah would like you to believe that 60 percent of the state is still Mormon. They are just not allowed to utter the word "Mormon" for fear of spontaneously combusting, or at the very least going to Hell at some future date (despite the fact the founding scripture of the institution has "Mormon" in the title). Perhaps the church will rename the book, The Book of Nephi, which would be great since it was actually Nephi that appeared to Joseph Smith all those years ago. Cragun's research indicates with a 99.9 percent confidence interval (most studies only use 90-95 percent) that 38-46 percent of the popula...
