To those who have eyes to see and ears to hear and the Holy Ghost to bear
witness.
Past Life, Yes - Spirit Life. as a Spirit.
Mortal life, Now.
What we do during this brief time of probation will determine our state
forever hereafter; the effect of the
plan being "everlasting, either on the one hand or on the other--either unto
. . . peace and life eternal, or unto the
deliverance . . . into captivity"
D&C 50:29-30 What does it take. Look it up.
(D&C 33:2-6) 2 For verily, verily, I say unto you that ye are called to lift
up your voices as with the sound of a
trump, to declare my gospel unto a crooked and perverse generation. 3 For
behold, the field is white already to
harvest; and it is the eleventh hour, and the last time that I shall call
laborers into my vineyard. 4 And my
vineyard has become corrupted every whit; and there is none which doeth good
save it be a few; and they err in
many instances because of priestcrafts, all having corrupt minds. 5 And
verily, verily, I say unto you, that this
church have I established and called forth out of the wilderness. 6 And even
so will I gather mine elect from the
four quarters of the earth, even as many as will believe in me, and hearken
unto my voice.
(1 Nephi 14:7). 1 Nephi 14:7 7 For the time cometh, saith the Lamb of God,
that I will work a great and a
marvelous work among the children of men; a work which shall be everlasting,
either on the one hand or on the
other--either to the convincing of them unto peace and life eternal, or unto
the deliverance of them to the
hardness of their hearts and the blindness of their minds unto their being
brought down into captivity, and also
into destruction, both temporally and spiritually, according to the
captivity of the devil, of which I have spoken.
Hear it, all ye Latter-day Saints! Will you spend the time of your probation
for naught, and fool away your
existence and being? You were organized, and brought into being, for the
purpose of enduring forever, if you
fulfil the measure of your creation, pursue the right path, observe the
requirements of the celestial law, and
obey the commandments of our God. 1:113. Discourses of Brigham Young, p.87
"Be reconciled unto Christ, and enter into the narrow gate, and walk in the
straight path which leads to life, and
continue in the path until the end of the day of probation." (2 Ne. 33:9.)
(Alma 34:32-33, 35). "This life is the time for men to prepare to meet God .
. . [and to] improve our time while
in this life. . . . If ye have procrastinated the day of your repentance, .
. . behold, ye have become subjected to the
spirit of the devil"
(1 Nephi 10:21) 21 Wherefore, if ye have sought to do wickedly in the days
of your probation, then ye are
found unclean before the judgment-seat of God; and no unclean thing can
dwell with God; wherefore, ye must
be cast off forever.
Today is the day of your probation.
(Mormon 9:28) 28 Be wise in the days of your probation; strip yourselves of
all uncleanness; ask not, that
ye may consume it on your lusts, but ask with a firmness unshaken, that ye
will yield to no temptation, but that ye
will serve the true and living God.
(2 Nephi 2:28) 28 And now, my sons, I would that ye should look to the great
Mediator, and hearken unto his
great commandments; and be faithful unto his words, and choose eternal life,
according to the will of his Holy
Spirit; 29 And not choose eternal death, according to the will of the flesh
and the evil which is therein, which
giveth the spirit of the devil power to captivate, to bring you down to
hell, that he may reign over you in
his own kingdom.
Ask not for that which ye aught not.
Helaman 13:37 37 Behold, we are surrounded by demons, yea, we are encircled
about by the angels of him
who hath sought to destroy our souls. Behold, our iniquities are great. O
Lord, canst thou not turn away thine
anger from us? And this shall be your language in those days. 38 But behold,
your days of probation are past;
ye have procrastinated the day of your salvation until it is everlastingly
too late, and your destruction is
made sure; yea, for ye have sought all the days of your lives for that which
ye could not obtain; and ye have
sought for happiness in doing iniquity, which thing is contrary to the
nature of that righteousness which is in our
great and Eternal Head.
Multiple mortal probations, Transmigration of souls, Recarnation. Evil
spirits enter in and deceive!
And as far as the LDS Church being TRUE Only as far as it holds to the
truth, for they have
transgressed the Law changed the Ordenances and Broke the Everlasting
Covenant.
And Noah a little Elder Xed out of the Church in his day looked upon the
wicked People. So did the
Church fail in noah's day ? Save it be 8 souls saved through the flood. The
rest followed the brethren
who had transgressed the law, changed the ordenances and broke the
everlasting covenant.
History repeats itself. 2 Nephi 28 1-32 Could this be speaking of the LDS
Church today?

they are murderers and
no murderer hath eternal life. Words of Joseph Smith, pg. 62, 73, 331, 390.

7:22 All the Presidents of the LDS supported this doctrine up to pres.
Kimball, for they understood
the punishment, that they would lose the priesthood and the church would go
to destruction, for the
Priesthood would be taken from them. No wonder the "Follow the brethren"
doctrine of infallibility
has been ingrained into the members while they accept evil doctrine as they
sleep. (NOT
KNOWING THE SCRIPTURES OR TEACHING OF THE PROPHETS) Matt. 15:14
(NOW) LDS Inter-racial marriage is frequent with the seed of cane, in many
wards it is clear
as Black & White. (THE CURSE WILL FOLLOW ALL WHO CONSENT. )
6- (THEN) Celestial marriage is plurality of wives or polygamy, all who
preach against or deny it
will be da-ned, must be lived to become sanctioned by the Lord. Established
for the fullness of the
gospel. D&C 132:3-6,32,34-40, 64-66 JD 1:54, 6:35, 13:194, 13:239, 22:148.
The Seer 173

marriage, even
though contrary to all previous doctrine. (Follow the ways of men and the

(JOSEPH SMITH SAID IF CONTRARY TO SCRIPTURES THROW THEM OUT AS
IMPOSTORS. TIMES & SEASONS, APRIL 1, 1844.)
10- (THEN) Alters & Prayer circles used in every faithful member's home,
Stake and Temple. To
receive the will of God in the true order of prayer, to gain knowledge and
intelligence and a more
sure word of prophecy. Also rooms were provided for any temple attendees to
use. See Book:
Temples of the Most High, D&C 88:38-40, 131:5,
(NOW) LDS Policy is only one place the true order can be done and that is in
the temples in
front of all, this is where a partial instruction is given on the true order
of prayer. rooms in the temple
are off limits and are roped off, to assure no entry. The LDS leaders are
afraid of revelation that
reveals their falsehood. If the true order of prayer is used at home or
outside of these temples and
you are found out, you will assuredly be excommunicated and labeled an
apostate. LDS Church &
Temple rules 1994
11- (THEN) Priesthood Garment not to be altered or changed. Made by own

(HOW TRUE IS A CHURCH THAT CAN NOT HOLD ON TO THE TRUTH)
NOW THAT all true doctrines have been done away with in the main stream LDS
Mormon
Church, things are less threatening. Have you been lulled away in a false
sense of security ?
PLEASE for you own Exaltation, Gain a personal Testimony of the Savior,
Jesus Christ. Learn
truth, study the teachings of all true past prophets, learn all the doctrine
of the fullness of the Gospel.
Study the Scriptures, holding fast to the iron rod the word of God. D&C
76:116-119, 132:20-24
THIS IS A DOCTRINAL COMPARISON OF SOME OF DOCTRINES OF THE LATTER
DAY SAINTS 1830-1890 AND FROM 1890 TO NOW. THIS LIST WAS PROVIDED BY A
INDEPENDENT FUNDAMENTALIST LATTER DAY SAINT, FOR THE FULLNESS OF THE GOSPEL
OF ETERNAL TRUTH.
IT IS NOT A DAY OF MANY WORDS BUT A DAY OF WARNING,
FROM A BROTHER IN CHRIST.
Act honest before God and man, ye inhabitance of the earth, ye saints, or
those who can be
called saints. Profit from this important key ... that in all your trials,
troubles, temptations, afflictions,
bonds, imprisonment's and death, see to it that ye do not betray heaven,
that ye do not betray Jesus
Christ, that you do not betray the revelations of God, whether in the Bible,
Book of Mormon,
Doctrine and Covenants or any of the written word of God. See to it that you
do not this thing, lest
innocent blood be found in you skirts or on your garments and you go down to
hell.
When any one gives way to the devil, so as to neglect the first light, even
the light of Christ which
is given to all at birth to discern the difference between good and evil,
beware, lest ye become
captive and swayed to destruction or become engulfed in the ways of the
world and the foolish
traditions of the fathers, being led to change or alter that which has been
instituted before the
foundation of the world for the eternal decree has gone forth. All must be
saved upon the same
eternal law and pattern established by the Father of Light, Truth, and Love.
Faith comes by hearing the word of God and through the testimony of the
servants of God, ye
may be assured through the witness of the Holy Ghost, the Comforter. Repent
ye now therefore and
come unto Christ, who is the only Savior and Redeemer. Follow thou him, for
He has laid down the
foundation of salvation, even in the holy writ. (the scriptures). Be ye not
deceived by any means,
prove all things and hold fast to that which is true and good. Flee from
that which would bind you
down to destruction and cause you to be kept in bondage. Hold to no man your
allegiance, seek ye
Christ and the Father, through the Holy Ghost. Baptism and Re-Baptism are
the ordinances unto the
remission of sins.
The gift of the Holy Ghost (The Testator or Witness) is a rightful gift by
the laying on of hands
and is received only upon the principle of righteousness, for if the
principles of truth are not complied
with, the gift is of no use and the Holy Ghost withdraws.
Men and devils have sought to change that which is eternal and thus they
seal their souls to
da-nation, rejecting the truth. For they seal up away from themselves that
which God has ordained
to save them. They are then left without excuse in their own ignorance and
shall dwindle in unbelief.
As God gives revelations unto the children of men and they refuse to abide
the eternal laws, then
they refuse the blessing on which the law is predicated, for if the law is
broken then cometh a
punishment.
Keep the commandments of the Lord God. Seek ye his counsels in
righteousness, seek ye that
ye may come up unto the revelations of God by the order set forth for the
faithful, that ye may come
unto the administration of angels and just men and just women made perfect,
that ye may have
reams, and visions, that ye may abide the presents of those who are awaiting
the righteous in their
cause. Seek ye your calling and election made sure, that ye may hear the
good shepherd and here
the voice of God assuring you that ye have part in the kingdom, even unto
the company of the
Church of the Firstborn, that ye may be enlightened unto the knowledge that
ye are sealed unto the
Most High God, through your faithfulness.
Today is the day to prepare to meet your God. Repent! Do ye the first words,
even that which
ye have come to mortality to accomplish. What does it profiteth a man if he
shall gain the whole
world (Things in the World) and shall loose his soul ?
The revelations of God are established and have been through out all
eternity. Those who reject
or try to put asunder bring the judgments of God upon them. One pestilence
will desolate after
another, wars of bloodshed are upon all nations. The moon shall be turned as
likened to blood.
These things are now choleric upon all peoples. The spirit of the devil is
now enraged. There are
those who are seeking and receiving spirits and ministrations of spirits &
angels. See, that ye be not
deceived. Try the spirits, as explained in the Doctrine and Covenants, Sec.
129. Every spirit or
vision or singing is not of God. The devil is an orator, he is powerful. The
gift of the discerning
of spirits is a necessity lest ye be deceived and delivered over to the
buffeting of Satan. Cast evil
from amongst your presence in the name of Jesus Christ, again try the
spirits, and by the revelations
of God contained in his Holy Writ. If contrary then ye may know of a surety
it is of the devil.
Let us seek for the glory of Abraham, Noah and Adam. True prophets, apostles
and saints have
communion with God as these have. Then ye shall be with that number of
faithful Saints when Christ
comes.
It is the privilege of the children of God to come to God and get
revelation. We all have the same
privilege to come unto God, weary Him until he blesses you. We are entitled
to the same blessings
of Heaven, The presence of Jesus and his revelations through the centennials
placed for our
appointment. Lay not aside the doctrine of Christ but go on unto perfection,
obtain the Holy Spirit
of promise, then you can be sealed to eternal life within the promises of
God to obtain all that is
promised to His faithful.
All those who are proud who do wickedly will have to answer and stand before
their Creator to
suffer the vengeance of a just God, which he will perform upon them for
their deeds in the flesh, then
for some cometh the second death, after a short season. Judge not
unrighteously that ye be not so
judged, but judge a righteous judgment as the Lord God hath given in his
Holy Writ, for by this may
ye know that it is of God. For God lies not and his judgments are just and
true. When the law is
broken there must needs be a punishment.
Repent ye now therefore and keep the commandments of God, be just in all
your dealings, show
integrity in all your transactions, swear not by heaven or by hell, swear
not at all lest ye be found the
transgressor. Your stewardship is before you, see to it that ye lead in
righteousness, be ye the
example for good, look to Christ and God and no other. As fathers and
mothers, sons and
daughters, it is the duty of each individual to seek and find, knock and
receive personally. To prove
and establish truth in righteousness, perfecting one's self, regardless of
what is going on about us.
God has decreed the law and salvation only cometh as one perfects his or her
life and casts off all
that would be evil.
Ye have a house (Your Body) this a temple of the spirit of which ye are.
Make your
stewardship faithful unto the end, be pure and clean before God. The joyous
manifestations of
heaven will be yours to receive and be revealed in the Lords due time. We
may know of a surety
and not of another, the truth of all things. Then ye shall surely be free,
knowing of things for yourself
and not of another. May God bless you in you search for the mysteries of
Godliness, in the name of
Jesus Christ, Amen. Your brother in TRUTH. Kelly L Sharp
