Seeking counsel from a false prophet
Posted in false prophets, Uncategorized, tagged counsel, false prophets, Holy Spirit, Jesus on 10/03/2012| Leave a Comment »
The countdown to the Mormons biannual General Conference has begun. In a couple of days Mormons everywhere will be gathered around their TV’s in anticipation and awe of hearing from their current prophet and church leaders. On The Mormon Channel’s Facebook page there’s a quote by Quentin L. Cook which reads –
“We may not avoid every storm of life, but following the counsel of living prophets will help us ride out the storm.”
As a former Mormon and follower of Jesus Christ I can’t help but feel sad by this statement, and to be honest a little irritated. I just want to scream “WHAT ABOUT JESUS?” doesn’t His “counsel” mean anything to them?
As born again believers we know that once we’ve repented, and put our trust in Jesus alone the Holy Spirit takes up “permanent residents” in our hearts. We then have direct communication with the Father and Son, and through the Holy Spirit we can rely on their counsel when times get rough.

I heard him say, ‘the Ten Tribes were not on this globe, but a portion of this earth had cleaved off with them and went flying into space, and when the time comes when the “earth reels to and from like a drunken man and the stars from heaven fall,” it would join on again.’” – Bathsheba W.

Procreation in Heaven
Doctrines of Salvation 2:48; “The Father has promised us that through our faithfulness we shall be blessed with the fulness of his kingdom. In other words we will have the privilege of becoming like him. To become like him we must have all the powers of godhood; thus a man and his wife when glorified will have spirit children who eventually will go on an earth like this one…”

American Continent Empty?
The Improvement Era, July 1940, Vol. 43, no. 7, pg 396; “The Lord took every precaution to see that nothing might interfere with this posterity of Joseph in working out their God-given destiny and the destiny of America. He provided, and so told Lehi at the very beginning of his settlement, that… it is wisdom that this land should be kept as yet from the knowledge of other nations… The Lord so kept the land for a thousand years after Lehi landed. He so kept it in His wisdom for another thousand years after the Nephites were destroyed, perhaps to give the Lamanitish branch another chance.” – J. Reuben Clark

Other Men’s Wives
Journal of Discourses 2:13-14; “What would a man of God say, who felt aright, when Joseph asked him for his money? He would say, “Yes, and I wish I had more to help to build up the kingdom of God.” Or if he came and said, “I want your wife?” “O yes,” he would say, “here she is, there are plenty more… Did the Prophet Joseph want every man’s wife he asked for? He did not, but in that thing was the grand thread of the Priesthood

developed. The grand object in view was to try the people of God, to see what was in them. If such a man of God should come to me and say, “I want your gold and silver, or your wives,” I should say, “Here they are, I wish I had more to give you, take all I have got.” A man who has got the Spirit of God, and the light of eternity in him, has no trouble about such matters.” – Jedidiah M. Grant, Salt Lake City, February 19, 1854

Journal of Discourses 5:167; “Brother Heber has been prophesying. You know that I call him my Prophet, and he prophesies for me. And now I prophesy that, if this people will live their religion, the God of heaven will fight their battles, bring them off victorious over all their enemies, and give to them the kingdom. That is my prophecy. I said amen to all that brother Heber prophesied, for it is true; and he may say amen to all that I prophesy, for it is also true.” – Brigham Young, Salt Lake City, August 30, 1857

Revelations; Past Revelations don’t Matter
All Are Alike Unto God, Bruce McConkie Speech at BYU, June 1978; “We get our truth and our light line upon line and precept upon precept. We have now had added a new flood of intelligence and light on this particular subject, and it erases all the darkness and all the views and all the thoughts of the past. They don’t matter any more. It doesn’t make a particle of difference what anybody ever said about the Negro matter before the first day of June of this year, 1978. It is a new day and a new arrangement, and the Lord has now given the revelation that sheds light out into the world on this subject. As to any slivers of light or any particles of darkness of the past, we forget about them.”

Journal of Discourses6:36; “Does the earth conceive? It does and it brings forth. If it did not, why do you go and put your wheat into the ground? Does it not conceive it….Where did the earth come from? From its parent earths. Well, some of you may call that foolish philosophy. But if it is, I will throw out foolish things, that you may gather up wise things. The earth is alive. If it was not, it could not produce”. – Heber C. Kimball, Salt Lake City, November 8, 1857
