A “marvelous work and a wonder” is the Lord’s description of His efforts to gather and save his elect from the most severe bondage and destruction plot in history. Joseph Smith successfully laid the foundation of Zion 190 years ago. But he’s returning again with vengeance to scatter watchmen, tear down hedges, destroy their towers and redeem the Lord’s vineyard. Zion will return triumphant.

The End-time Servant – Isaiah 48-49 & Jeremiah 23

Posted on by

Both Isaiah and Jeremiah wrote extensively about the apostasy of the Lord’s house in ancient times, while paralleling it with the last days and the condition of the gentiles.

Jesus warned about false prophets and wolves in sheep’s clothing, and for a very good reason.
