Next we see those who believe in the Restoration but claim the Church is deficient and has gone astray. At one end we meet those who attack the Restoration, the Prophet Joseph Smith, and the Book of Mormon. There are many who deceive, and the spectrum of deception is broad. Paul said, “We see through a glass, darkly.” 3 Similarly, one of the most prominent features of the vision of the tree of life is a “great mist of darkness they who had commenced in the path did lose their way, that they wandered off and were lost.” 4 The Broad Spectrum of Deception
I am not sure of all that is implied by the qualification “if possible, they shall deceive the very elect,” but I think it means, at least, that everyone will be challenged in our day. When the Lord described the signs of His coming and the end of the world, when He described our day, He mentioned many things, including wars and rumors of wars, nations rising against nations, famines, pestilences, earthquakes, and many other signs, including this one:įor in those days there shall also arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders, insomuch, that, if possible, they shall deceive the very elect, who are the elect according to the covenant. The question is, Will you and I stand? Will you stand forever, or will you go away? And if you go, where will you go? Deception Is a Sign of Our Time The kingdom of God is The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever. The prophet Daniel said that in the last days I wrote other talks more entertaining, with more stories-more engaging than this one-but each time I wrote a new talk, I was directed back to this one. I would like to share with you some of the thoughts I recorded that day, and although what I wrote was for my benefit, I hope it will help you as well. Reading that material always left me with a feeling of gloom, and one day that sense of darkness inspired me to write a partial response to all such antagonistic claims.
