Posts Tagged ‘angels with flaming swords’

Joseph Smiths VisionsBecause there are so many stories about this activity in Smith’s life it’s hard to keep them all straight and in my quest to stay sane I’ve found organization is key so I’ve put them all in one place for easy access.

If you need info on any of Smith’s peculiar visions in the future you can find them by looking over to the right and scrolling down to “Visions of Joseph Smith” or clicking here.

If you’re LDS I want to be clear about our objective in publishing these things. I/we don’t do this out of animosity or to bash the Mormon people. On the contrary we do this out of our deep love and concern. We believe you deserve to know the truth and in order for you to make a wise decision about your eternal life it’s best to be informed.

With Love in Christ;

There are a lot of places in the Bible where we find angels mentioned and by a lot that means 108!  About a third is in the first four books of the Old Testament, eleven in Psalms, nineteen times in Zechariah and twenty in Judges.  Whew!

The amazing thing about this is seeing how the Lord utilized His angels with each having a specific duty to fulfill. Some served to defend Israel with a sword (2 Chron. 32:21), some will serve in the future to defend her (Zech. 12:8), some delivered messages from God (Judges 2:1) and then we have one angel who stood guard in the Garden of Eden with a flaming sword (Genesis 3:21).

Which god Commanded Polygamy?

Mormon Decisions 10Contributor, Vol. 5, October 1883-September 1884, pg 259; “The same God that has thus far dictated me and directed me and strengthened me in this work, gave me this revelation and commandment on celestial and plural marriage, and the same God commanded me to obey it. He said to me that unless I accepted it, and introduced it, and practiced it, I, together with my people would be damned and cut off from this time henceforth. We have got to observe it. It is an eternal principle and was given by way of commandment and not by way of instruction.” – Joseph Smith
