Just my take on issues around us.
They Can Not Stand In The Way
Posted 3rd June 2008 at 10:01 by Whitey
Here is just part of a talk by Elder Bruce R McConkie back in 1980. It is just as relevant today.
Amid tears of sorrow—our hearts heavy with forebodings—we see evil and crime and carnality covering the earth. Liars and thieves and adulterers and homosexuals and murderers scarcely seek to hide their abominations from our view. Iniquity abounds. There is no peace on earth.
We see evil forces everywhere uniting to destroy the family, to ridicule morality and decency, to glorify all that is lewd and base. We see wars and plagues and pestilence. Nations rise and fall. Blood and carnage and death are everywhere. Gadianton robbers fill the judgment seats in many nations. An evil power seeks to overthrow the freedom of all nations and countries. Satan reigns in the hearts of men; it is the great day of his power.
But amid it all, the work of the Lord rolls on. The gospel is preached and the witness is born. The elect of God forsake the traditions of their fathers and the ways of the world. The kingdom grows and prospers, for the Lord is with his people.

Sorry to post that. I will try to leave your children out of it in the future and quit my obsession with them.

Now how can I feel sorry about that when I have never wanted to do it?
You on the other hand have a recurring fixation that anyone who disagrees with you is out to hurt you and your family. The only logical conclusion I can draw from that it that your fixation is a subconscious cry for help because its you who wants to cause harm to them. |

Henceforth I shall be on my guard against those Gadianton robbers.
They be everywhere, I tell ye... (And why, I ask, is there no emoticon for extreme paranoia? Seems a serious omission on your part Louis, really it does...)  |
