Absurdity

Section 64: Absurdity

  1. Joseph Smith, Jun. has the keys to the kingdom, and they will never be taken from him. 5
  2. Edward Partridge has sinned, and Satan is trying to destroy his soul. But I'll forgive them. 17

    So God is going to forgive Edward Partridge and Satan?

  3. Sidney Gilbert should return to his business in Zion. 18
  4. I command Isaac Morley to sell his farm. 20
  5. But I don't want Frederick G. Williams to sell his farm. I want to have a strong hold on Kirtland for the next five years. (I won't destroy the wicked during that time.) 21
  6. From now until the Son of Man comes is called "today". Everyone must tithe until the Son of Man comes. Those who tithe won't be burned when he comes. 23
  7. After "today" comes the burning (I'm speaking the way the Lord speaks). "Tomorrow" I'll burn all the proud and wicked people. I won't spare anyone in Babylon. 24
  8. Wherefore, if ye believe me, ye will labor while it is called today. 25
  9. I don't want Newel K. Whitney and Sidney Gilbert to sell their store - until everyone here goes to Zion. 26
  10. I forbid any of you to get in debt to your enemies. 27
  11. The Lord takes what he wants and pays back whenever he wants. 28
  12. You're on the Lord's errand, doing the Lord's business. 29
  13. The rebellious aren't of the blood of Epraim, so they'll be plucked out. 36
  14. I've made my church in these last days the judge of all nations. 37
  15. The nations of the earth will tremble because of the church, and fear her terrible ones. I, the Lord, have said so. Amen. 43
