I would add a word of caution, living in a large city when times of leanness come will not be pleasant. Hoards of angry people and gangs will roam those parts of our nation. it is difficult to experience the reaction of people when I have warned them of what is going to happen in the cities. I have...

given many of the comments on communism, I'm wondering how few on FF know what communism is? Communism in its intended form taught years ago, isn't a totalitarian, oligarch runs social system! Russia has no communes. China has communal concepts for the poor and rural but no one else. Both of these ...

Here is an interesting hint that Paul was working from a slightly different canon to the NT. Notice that 1 Corinthians says "as it is written"... but where? Paul would have met people who knew Jesus in the flesh but he is quoting a writing here. 1 Corinthians 2:9 “But as it is written , E...

I won't say that there are elements of communal living that are not appealing. But such arrangements must be entered into and abided by free will and choice. No one will be forced to live consecration/ United Order. If you WISH to live in Zion, the you will CHOOSE to abide that law. As the collapse...

Ethiopian Christians won't touch pork. One or two small churches too. Theres a good reason for the Jew or or any ancient people not eating pig flesh, and its a health reason, in those days , especially so in warmer climes pigs were riddled with tapeworm, whoms eggs can only be killed by thorough co...

Recognizing the source's desire to destroy the very idea of Christ is not "attacking" the source. It is a recognition that in order to destroy the divinity of Christ, that they have to knock down one of the large walls surrounding hte divinity of Christ and they do so through attempting t...

The combination of record high credit card debt and record high credit card interest is nothing short of catastrophic for both the US economy, and the strapped consumer who has no choice but to keep buying on credit while hoping next month's bill will somehow not come. Unfortunately, it will and at...

like the hoffman history. the church purchased many of his forgeries and accepted them as authentic. The outcome of all that was a complete scandal that was painted black and hidden from the public. Church leaders have been very proficient at lying and deceiving for a very long time. No doubt, to pr...

The church also took out the SEO searchable text of Joseph Smith drinking beer from the Joseph Smith Papers project. are you saying that the Q15 et al have been engaging in cover-ups, manipulation of doctrine and the creation of propaganda in a concerted effort to mislead the church membership? For...

So, it sounds like you must have received a spiritual witness — that it is the word of God? I never ask if "it" is the word of God. Just like I don't ask if the BoM is true. Is the overall premise "true", that it is a record of a people who lived and struggled? Yes, I believe so...

At this point, I am shocked that people do not know who is the Davidic Servant. It makes me comprehend how the Jews crucified their Savior. Many know him . The word messiah in Hebrew means “anointed one”. We have a Messiah. He is clearly cleaning out the wicked and exposing them daily. Brigham Youn...

What has that got to do with priesthood ordination? If you practice the priesthood, you ought to know. this gives me a pause as i consider the statement. so...for you, what precisely does 'practice the priesthood' mean ? That you caught that, I appreciate. According to the church, “ priesthood is t...

Alex, i'll go with 'Israel strikes Iran in April' for a 100.

"Israel Bombs Iran, deadly gas release kills 2000"

I'll go with "What is a false flag,?" Alex.

The next Shtf is February. They will set up the crisis which will be the focus of the next Presidential election and it will start in February like it always does. With a reset or refocus in September. I don't know if there will ever be a big shtf now. Just a continuous flow of s!*# spraying throug...

It was though. I don’t believe so, nor do other scriptures (if you insist on dogma)… “The LORD seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart.” - 1Samuel 16:7 What has that got to do with priesthood ordination? If you practice the priesthood, yo...

Lately I have had strong impressions that I need to build my relationship with the Lord so that I will be able to discern Truth from Deception for this reason... and soon a MIGHTY DECEPTION WILL MAKE AN APPEARANCE. Be STRONG. Seek Wisdom. Follow the Truths as given. Remain humble as all things are ...

Scientist Presents Clinical Evidence to Halt Covid Shots - The New American The association between excess mortality and disability rates and genetic Covid shots is getting stronger.

I’m continuing the discourse I was noting previously. I believe this is one of the main reasons why I have such a difficult time with how the church wields their authority and abuses the word “sustain.” The priesthood was/is meant as a means of service to God’s children, but has been cloaked in “ke...

Looks like this OP went unnoticed or perceived as irrelevant in 2010. Just thought I’d bump it for those familiar with Dr. Schoch, Randal Carlson, Suspicious Observers, and the like. Thought there was some interesting correlations here. Your mileage may vary, however. Note: I’d never heard of the K...

In " The Screwtape Letters ", C.S. Lewis has a demon instructing another demon on how to ruin a man. I always remember this bit: "Your patient has become humble; have you drawn his attention to the fact? All virtues are less formidable to us once the man is aware that he has them, bu...

I've believed in this since I first heard it, but I just find it hard to apply it practically. My wife would question my mental health if I ran a wire from outside to our bedroom, lol. I took interest in this and tried it without bias to determine if it really worked. i ran a wire to the house grou...
