I woke up this morning thinking about my friend Steve McIntosh. I thought I would write a little bit about him.

Am I prepared to enter Zion?
I feel we are in a strange predicament right now; living in the world while trying to not be of the world. I am sure that prior to us entering Zion we will be stripped of all things. Those who are still attached to the world will not be able to release it. Their appetites and passions will still be centered on all the world has to offer, even if the world is broken. While those humble followers of God will give all they have and if it so be, leave all they have behind in order to follow God.
Matt Jeppson Review – Ecliptic Year
Genesis 15:18 In the same day the Lord made a covenant with Abram, saying, Unto thy seed have I given this land, from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river Euphrates:
Patriarchal Blessing
A Patriarchal Blessing is a strange thing. I received mine when I was about 22. I know the patriarch gets to know you a bit before giving you the blessing. Either way, he sure seemed to know a lot about me. At least what I could tell from what I know about my character. I can say he hit the nail on the head more than once.
Matt Jeppson Review – Tav & Aleph
I felt as though there was some significance to the 2017 and 2024 eclipses. I knew they were in the “last days” and I knew they were 7 years apart, which is symbolic of God and Righteousness. I also knew they made an X over the New Madrid fault. I also knew the Heartlanders believed the spot where they will intersect like an X may have been a Nephite place of gathering. How they timestamped the events of the last days I did not know. Clearly all speculation.
Matt Jeppson Review – Children of Light
My cousin shared a video with me of this guy named Matt Jeppson. He is kind of like Morgan Philpot in that he is an attorney, good at study and research, and he is also focused on the last days. I was pretty amazed by what Matt came up with […]
Consecration
I’m going to try to explain my feelings here the best I can. I was studying the other day and was reminded of a condition that is important to become worthy of entering Zion—the Law of Consecration.
Meme – Our Souls Cry Out
“Our souls cry out: ‘God hasten the day of the coming of thy Son,’ and yet we know that such cannot be. The day is fixed and the hour is set. The signs have been, are now, and will hereafter be shown forth. Our obligation is to discern the signs of the times lest we, with the world, be taken unawares” – McConkie, Millennial Messiah, 405
Meme – In the Book of Mormon
President Benson said, “In the Book of Mormon we find a pattern for preparing for the Second Coming. A major portion of the book centers on the few decades just prior to Christ’s coming to America. By careful study of that time period we can determine why some were destroyed in the terrible judgments that preceded His coming and what brought others to stand at the temple in the land of Bountiful and thrust their hands into the wounds of his hands and feet.” – President Ezra Taft Benson
Too many members rely on a spiritual experience and not their spiritual habits
At church today I heard the following line: “Too many members rely on a spiritual experience and not their spiritual habits.” That was a great line. Don’t ask me whose quote it is… I don’t know. So, what does it mean?
