Isaiah 66:18-19 “For I know their works and their thoughts: it shall come, that I will gather all nations and tongues; and they shall come, and see my glory. 19 And I will set a sign among them, and I will send those that escape of them unto the nations, to Tarshish, Pul, and Lud, that draw the bow, to Tubal, and Javan, to the isles afar off, that have not heard my fame, neither have seen my glory; and they shall declare my glory among the Gentiles.”
1 Corinthians 15:6 “After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep.”
Matthew 28:18-20 “And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. 19 ¶ Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.”

…All nations come to God…If all nations would come to God as Isaiah prophesied why did the Church ban non-whites from their congregation for almost 150 years? Ask your Mormon friends/loved ones why LDS scripture still say blacks are condemned.

Moses 7:22 “And Enoch also beheld the residue of the people which were the sons of Adam; and they were a mixture of all the seed of Adam save it was the seed of Cain, for the seed of Cain were black, and had not place among them.”
Despite the fact that black people are welcomed to join the church, very few do join and those that do, seldom hang around for very long. I believe these people can sense that they are not truly welcomed additions to the wards. Most Mormons are truly nice, kind and generous people, however, the racist lineage of the church’s past is still present today.
