    "THE EXALTED LORD": JOHN'S VISION OF THE 144,000-Richard Draper, BYU Studies 2009

    The Book of Revelation contains several visions of the Savior, Jesus Christ. It's chapters are full of symbolic meanings and prophesies of the latter days. John sees 144,000 high priests clothed in white robes laboring in the Lord's vineyard for the final time. Richard Draper describes in detail who the Lord is referring to and what work that they have yet to preform. This article, "The Exalted Lord" was part of a book called,  "Shedding Light on the New Testament", originally published in 2009. Richard takes the reader through the meanings and symbolism behind all four of John's visions of the Savior in the book of Revelation. All of them prophesy about the swift messengers that will live in the latter days and the mighty work that these messengers will undertake. As we Gather Israel, we are acting as the Lord's "sickles", and reaping while their is still time. Filling the storehouses of the Lord's people with priesthood blessings overflowing.

    WHERE THEY WALKED: DISCOVERING ANCESTORS THROUGH FAMILYSEARCH MAPS

    Have you ever wondered where your ancestors walked or the surroundings of their day to day life? In this episode Colette teaches how to use FamilySearch Maps to understand your ancestors even more than you did before. Maps is a great tool in understanding what shaped the everyday decisions that your ancestors faced based on location. FamilySearch Maps is an under utilized tool that can actually help you in your genealogical research to find your missing loved ones. Maps should be in the tool box of every genealogist from beginner to advanced skill levels and is a fun way to connect to those who came before you in unexpected ways.

    ANCESTRAL SPIRITUAL PHENOMENA: Story of the Jonathan Harriman Hale Family

    In 1834, Jonathan Hale and his wife Olive, were baptized as members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. That began a journey of soul stretching, discipleship for both. They were determined to serve the Lord at all costs and to do whatever was asked of them as they followed the prophet Joseph Smith and began to serve in God's Kingdom on Earth. Unfortunately, during their journey west, both were taken home to the other side of the veil, leaving small children to cross the plains by themselves. With the aid of Heber C. Kimball, those children made it safely to the Salt Lake Valley, with their testimonies intact. As the church grew and temples began to built up in numerous places the children knew they needed to be close to one. Logan valley became their new home as there was a newly built temple there. Through a series of miracles they acquired numerous ancestral records. They were stalwart in preforming the ordinances for their dead with the help of then temple president, Samuel Roskelley. At the completion of this family's work, a strange, miraculous, spiritual phenomena occurred at the Logan temple and was witnessed by many near and far. Truly the parting of the heavens has, is, and will always be a part of the sacred work that is done in any temple around the world.

  4. THE 144,000 GATHERERS

    6D AGO

    THE 144,000 GATHERERS

    In the book of Revelation and in various other scriptures, there is reference to a group of High Priests who will be called and elected to bring others of the house of Israel to the Church of the Firstborn in the last days. Who is this group? Is it some elite club with very few members or are there many humble servants of the Lord called to the 144,000? Are there righteous women who will be invited to take upon themselves this Holy calling? This group of servants will be called upon to do a mighty work through priesthood power and mighty manifestations. What exactly is this work and when will it be accomplished? Our efforts in the Gathering of Israel today echo the work of this sanctified quorum. As we seek to make our calling and election sure, gather Israel, and endure to the end, we will find that the qualification to be a part of that holy group is being made sure.

    "ON THE FRONTIER", Clark G. Gilbert, BYU Hawaii, Nov. 2010

    In a BYU Hawaii speech given on November 23, 2010, then Brother Clark G. Gilbert gave a talk about private and institutional frontiers. He related some advice that Brother Kim B. Clark gave to him, "If you want to know the Savior, go to the frontier because that is where you will see him in action.  It is at the frontier where he does  His work." When we look at the work of the Gathering of Israel through that lens, we understand that there is a largely untapped frontier, the Spirit World, where so many have passed on and need our help. As we understand the role of Redeemer and Savior through the example of Jesus Christ, we will find Him doing the work of bringing to pass the immortality and eternal lives of our Heavenly Father's children. Truly there is a sacred invitation from the Lord Jesus Christ, to meet Him on the fields of the frontier, to gather the wheat safely into the garners, before His glorious return.

    AI, FAMILY SEARCH AND MY HERITAGE MIRACLE

    Doing genealogical work will most assuredly require miracles in some form or another. Thankfully,  with the continuing addition of new technologies these miracles are becoming more regular for anyone seeking to know who their ancestors are. In this episode Colette demonstrates one of her own miracles as she implemented the use of AI, FamilySearch, and My Heritage. Technology is truly changing the face of how we find our families on both sides of the veil. Are you attending the Gathering of the Gatherers?

  8. REPAIRERS OF THE BREACH: Conversation with Adele Marcum

    REPAIRERS OF THE BREACH: Conversation with Adele Marcum

    In Isaiah 58:12 we read a prophesy and a description of a distinct group of saints living in the latter days. "And they that shall be of thee shall build the old waste places: thou shalt raise up the foundations of many generations; and thou shalt be called, The repairer of the breach, The restorer of paths to dwell in." Since the days of Adam, many have chosen to walk away from the covenant path or have not been given the opportunity to make sacred covenants with the Savior. The generations, you might say, are in need of much healing and repairing. Adele Marcum, has spent most of her life trying to repair the breach that has occurred within her own family and in the broken lineal chain of others as well. She works as a professional genealogist and has worked some of that time at FamilySearch and Ancestry. In this episode she testifies of the many miracles that happened behind the scenes during her time at FamilySearch. She also testifies of her own thinning of the veil experiences that helped to shape and mold her work in the Gathering of Israel. Truly as the Lord prophesied in Isaiah, there would be many saviors, willing and able in the last days to save the generations. The healing and strengthening of the family of Adam is now underway in temples all across the world, restoring the promises made to the fathers and repairing the many breaches in God's family. Giving hope to millions upon millions.  Are you attending the Gathering of the Gatherers?
