Understanding the abomination of desolation on the gentiles and how it brings in or just barely precedes the Lords first appearance to his saints as the Bridegroom is critically important in our day. We are not waiting for the signs of his coming, we are living the signs of his coming!
As important as it is to read and understand prophecy, for our generation, it is especially critical that we wake up to the fact that we are a part of the fulfillment of prophecy! And as such we aught to be paying attention to what’s going on in the world.
To help you better understand where we sit, I’m going to include a video that will hopefully clarify our present situation. In this video Tulsi Gabbard interviews Jeffery Sachs who gives us some important historical background concerning past US and Russian interactions as well as an assessment of where we stand today. It’s well worth watching the entire video or you can start at the 20:00 mark if you prefer.
As alarming as this all sounds, let us not forget the words of President Nelson in the Sunday morning secession of conference, said he:
“In coming days, we will see the greatest manifestations of the Savior’s power that the world has ever seen. Between now and the time He returns “with power and great glory,” He will bestow countless privileges, blessings, and miracles upon the faithful.”
Now, considering the starkness of the situation we find ourselves in, had we not aught to live in such a way that the Lord can “bestow countless privileges, blessings, and miracles upon” us “Between now and the time He returns “with power and great glory,”?
In my humble opinion, President Nelson’s talk was a masterful discourse on how we can draw closer the Lord in preparation for his coming, for he said:
“As I have stated before, the gathering of Israel is the most important work taking place on earth today. One crucial element of this gathering is preparing a 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.
I call upon you, my dear brothers and sisters, to become this righteous people. Cherish and honor your covenants above all other commitments. As you let God prevail in your life, I promise you greater peace, confidence, joy, and yes, rest.”
