For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Zion and Jerusalem, July 1, 2013

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

(New Testament | John 3:16)

Brittney Brisco said in the public arena:

“Still haven't figured out why God favored me so much that he assigned me to Maggie and James Brisco.... I thank God for my parents every single day.”

 

Dear Brittney,

I love to see someone in love with their family. This is the very meaning of life and to enjoy these relationships for time and eternity or forever and ever.  Did you know that families can be together forever? And we are here to reassure you and all willing souls that that is very much possible, but not as a chance, coincidence or implied wishful thinking, but by the virtue and power of GOD in his Holy Church and Temples.   

Families Can Be Together Forever

https://www.lds.org/pages/families-can-be-together-forever?lang=eng

You guys, that is you and your siblings did chose each other in the pre-existence of man before the world was. We lived there as spirit with God the Eternal Father, Jesus Christ who was know to us as Jehovah and Michael or Adam and all the holy prophets. There we all met.  Before coming to this world, you chose your parents and even your beloved hubby and knew the conditions you will face in your entire life thru mortality. We; yes, you and me met there too, and we may have said to each other, if you know the restored gospel of Jesus Christ before I do, you must teach it to me, and If I get know it before you, I will teach it to you.  And there we received our first instructions and were prepare in all things and shouted for joy.  Now gird up your loins like a man, because when you come to internalize and realize these things, you will jump of joy and gratitude more than ever before because of the greatness of our GOD.

There are scriptures that you and us, in the resorted Church of Jesus Christ, have that talk about our pre existence that attest to some of these facts. Can you believe this Britney?  Is it conceivable?  Does it feel your heart with joy to gaze at the possibility that you and your loved knew and loved each other even before the world was? If not, ask God in the name of Christ and he will manifest the truth by the power of the Holy Ghost, and by the power of the Holy Ghost, you can know the truth of all things, particularly all the stuff I tell you about in blogs and messages or of the books I quote.

These are the great news or glad tithing of great joy and the new revelations we bring, even the glories of Eternity. I am here because the LORD sent you to me, and I am here to teach the gospel and the commandments of God to you by opening or expounding all the scriptures with divine light.  I am not a learned man. The power is not in me but in Christ or the Holy Ghost and the authority that he placed upon me to act in his name. We do not remember our first state or our preexistence because of the veil of forgetfulness that was placed upon us as a condition of our further progression.  But, here is the law and the testimony that these things are true.  I am short of speech, even as a child, but by the power of GOD that id in me, I declare to you in this manner without fear, boldly and nobly so that you know that God is the same yesterday, today and forever and that he is a God of miracles:

Job

Gird up now thy loins like a man; for I will demand of thee, and answer thou me. Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth?  declare, if thou hast understanding. Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest?  or who hath stretched the line upon it? Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened?  or who laid the corner stone thereof;

When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?

(Old Testament | Job 38:3 - 7)

Abraham

Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations. Then said I, Ah, Lord GOD!  behold, I cannot speak: for I am a child. But the LORD said unto me, Say not, I am a child: for thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee, and whatsoever I command thee thou shalt speak. Be not afraid of their faces: for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith the LORD.

(Old Testament | Jeremiah 1:5 - 8)

Priesthood ordiantion

And this is the manner after which they were ordained—being called and prepared from the foundation of the world according to the foreknowledge of God, on account of their exceeding faith and good works; in the first place being left to choose good or evil; therefore they having chosen good, and exercising exceedingly great faith, are called with a holy calling, yea, with that holy calling which was prepared with, and according to, a preparatory redemption for such.

And thus they have been called to this holy calling on account of their faith, while others would reject the Spirit of God on account of the hardness of their hearts and blindness of their minds, while, if it had not been for this they might have had as great privilege as their brethren. Or in fine, in the first place they were on the same standing with their brethren; thus this holy calling being prepared from the foundation of the world for such as would not harden their hearts, being in and through the atonement of the Only Begotten Son, who was prepared— And thus being called by this holy calling, and ordained unto the high priesthood of the holy order of God, to teach his commandments unto the children of men, that they also might enter into his rest— This high priesthood being after the order of his Son, which order was from the foundation of the world; or in other words, being without beginning of days or end of years, being prepared from eternity to all eternity, according to his foreknowledge of all things— Now they were ordained after this manner—being called with a holy calling, and ordained with a holy ordinance, and taking upon them the high priesthood of the holy order, which calling, and ordinance, and high priesthood, is without beginning or end— Thus they become high priests forever, after the order of the Son, the Only Begotten of the Father, who is without beginning of days or end of years, who is full of grace, equity, and truth.  And thus it is.  Amen.

(Book of Mormon | Alma 13:3 - 9)

 

Premortal Councils

Now the Lord had shown unto me, Abraham, the intelligences that were organized before the world was; and among all these there were many of the noble and great ones;  And God saw these souls that they were good, and he stood in the midst of them, and he said: These I will make my rulers; for he stood among those that were spirits, and he saw that they were good; and he said unto me: Abraham, thou art one of them; thou wast chosen before thou wast born. And there stood one among them that was like unto God, and he said unto those who were with him: We will go down, for there is space there, and we will take of these materials, and we will make an earth whereon these may dwell; And we will prove them herewith, to see if they will do all things whatsoever the Lord their God shall command them; And they who keep their first estate shall be added upon; and they who keep not their first estate shall not have glory in the same kingdom with those who keep their first estate; and they who keep their second estate shall have glory added upon their heads for ever and ever. And the Lord said: Whom shall I send?  And one answered like unto the Son of Man: Here am I, send me.  And another answered and said: Here am I, send me.  And the Lord said: I will send the first.

(Pearl of Great Price | Abraham 3:22 - 27)

 

I observed that they were also among the noble and great ones who were chosen in the beginning to be rulers in the Church of God. Even before they were born, they, with many others, received their first lessons in the world of spirits and were prepared to come forth in the due time of the Lord to labor in his vineyard for the salvation of the souls of men.

I beheld that the faithful elders of this dispensation, when they depart from mortal life, continue their labors in the preaching of the gospel of repentance and redemption, through the sacrifice of the Only Begotten Son of God, among those who are in darkness and under the bondage of sin in the great world of the spirits of the dead. The dead who repent will be redeemed, through obedience to the ordinances of the house of God, And after they have paid the penalty of their transgressions, and are washed clean, shall receive a reward according to their works, for they are heirs of salvation. Thus was the vision of the redemption of the dead revealed to me, and I bear record, and I know that this record is true, through the blessing of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, even so.  Amen.

(Doctrine and Covenants | Section 138:55 - 60)

Melchizedeck Pristhood Restoration and Ordiantion

 

Brittney, I know that you are a very intelligent girl, but where you are you are being fed a very small portion of light and truth. The religious world out there sells at a great cost a salvation that is totally free.  But there is a difference between immortality and eternal life. Immortality is the gift of resurrection or the redemption from the temporal death which comes by the merits of the Blood of Christ on the cross. There he paid so we may all live again.  We do not have to do anything to receive it. But Eternal life is to live forever in the very presence of GOD as a family with all our loved ones and not somewhere else in a very happy but solitary state of existence forever and ever. And this is exaltation or eternal live we have to work it out thru Faith in Christ to repentance.  We have to live a Christ like life and he left us the ensample. Even The LORD and Savior who had no sin, had need of baptism for immersion by someone in authority and worthy to fulfill all righteousness; this he did also to show the Father that he would be obedient in all things, and to show us the way.

And now, if the Lamb of God, he being holy, should have need to be baptized by water, to fulfil all righteousness, O then, how much more need have we, being unholy, to be baptized, yea, even by water!

And now, I would ask of you, my beloved brethren, wherein the Lamb of God did fulfil all righteousness in being baptized by water?

Know ye not that he was holy?  But notwithstanding he being holy, he showeth unto the children of men that, according to the flesh he humbleth himself before the Father, and witnesseth unto the Father that he would be obedient unto him in keeping his commandments.

Wherefore, after he was baptized with water the Holy Ghost descended upon him in the form of a dove.

And again, it showeth unto the children of men the straitness of the path, and the narrowness of the gate, by which they should enter, he having set the example before them.

And he said unto the children of men: Follow thou me. 

Wherefore, my beloved brethren, can we follow Jesus save we shall be willing to keep the commandments of the Father?

And the Father said: Repent ye, repent ye, and be baptized in the name of my Beloved Son. And also, the voice of the Son came unto me, saying: He that is baptized in my name, to him will the Father give the Holy Ghost, like unto me; wherefore, follow me, and do the things which ye have seen me do.

Wherefore, my beloved brethren, I know that if ye shall follow the Son, with full purpose of heart, acting no hypocrisy and no deception before God, but with real intent, repenting of your sins, witnessing unto the Father that ye are willing to take upon you the name of Christ, by baptism—yea, by following your Lord and your Savior down into the water, according to his word, behold, then shall ye receive the Holy Ghost; yea, then cometh the baptism of fire and of the Holy Ghost; and then can ye speak with the tongue of angels, and shout praises unto the Holy One of Israel.

(Book of Mormon | 2 Nephi 31:5 - 13)

Baptism By Immersion

Brittney and family and friends, I doubt that you are a conformists, and I know that you are here to excel.  If you believe these things, having faith in Jesus Christ alone, and repent of your sin whatever they may be and come unto us, that is the church of Jesus Christ of Latter Days Saints,  and be baptized by immersion for the remission of sins, you will receive the gift of the Holy Ghost by the lying of hands. And he will be as a constant friend and companion and he will guide you thru obedience and sacrifice to the very presence of GOD.  You now have his influence, but not as a right because to have this right one has to be a citizen of the Kingdom of GOD.  And Baptism by immersion for the remision of sins is the doorway. We cannot assume or imply that we have these blessings just because we read the bible or because we feel the love of GOD. If we want to inherit the kigdom of ehaven, we also have to receive these blessings TODAY even as Christ and his apostles and the prophets did thru all ages of time.

Bestowal of the Gift of the Holy Ghost by the Lying of hands

However, I must warn you that if you reject the truth and do not follow all righteousness as Christ did, the spirit of God that NOW teaches you will abandon you because the spirit of GOD will not always strive with man.  For the prophets have said:

Wherefore, do the things which I have told you I have seen that your Lord and your Redeemer should do; for, for this cause have they been shown unto me, that ye might know the gate by which ye should enter.  For the gate by which ye should enter is repentance and baptism by water; and then cometh a remission of your sins by fire and by the Holy Ghost.

And then are ye in this strait and narrow path which leads to eternal life; yea, ye have entered in by the gate; ye have done according to the commandments of the Father and the Son; and ye have received the Holy Ghost, which witnesses of the Father and the Son, unto the fulfilling of the promise which he hath made, that if ye entered in by the way ye should receive.

And now, my beloved brethren, after ye have gotten into this strait and narrow path, I would ask if all is done? 

Behold, I say unto you, Nay; for ye have not come thus far save it were by the word of Christ with unshaken faith in him, relying wholly upon the merits of him who is mighty to save. Wherefore, ye must press forward with a steadfastness in Christ, having a perfect brightness of hope, and a love of God and of all men. 

Wherefore, if ye shall press forward, feasting upon the word of Christ, and endure to the end, behold, thus saith the Father: Ye shall have eternal life.

And now, behold, my beloved brethren, this is the way; and there is none other way nor name given under heaven whereby man can be saved in the kingdom of God.  And now, behold, this is the doctrine of Christ, and the only and true doctrine of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, which is one God, without end.  Amen.

(Book of Mormon | 2 Nephi 31:17 - 21)

 

Please remember that many are called but few are chosen. These are not my own sayings, the LORD has spoken it; and his word will not pass away but will be verified in this day and age as in former ones. Here is the law and the testimony:

For the Spirit of the Lord will not always strive with man.  And when the Spirit ceaseth to strive with man then cometh speedy destruction, and this grieveth my soul.

(Book of Mormon | 2 Nephi 26:11)

And the Lord said unto him: I will forgive thee and thy brethren of their sins; but thou shalt not sin any more, for ye shall remember that my Spirit will not always strive with man; wherefore, if ye will sin until ye are fully ripe ye shall be cut off from the presence of the Lord.

(Book of Mormon | Ether 2:15)

And we have the And the Lord said unto Noah: My Spirit shall not always strive with man, for he shall know that all flesh shall die; yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years; and if men do not repent, I will send in the floods upon them. And in those days there were giants on the earth, and they sought Noah to take away his life; but the Lord was with Noah, and the power of the Lord was upon him.

And the Lord ordained Noah after his own order, and commanded him that he should go forth and declare his Gospel unto the children of men, even as it was given unto Enoch. And it came to pass that Noah called upon the children of men that they should repent; but they hearkened not unto his words; And also, after that they had heard him, they came up before him, saying: Behold, we are the sons of God; have we not taken unto ourselves the daughters of men?  And are we not eating and drinking, and marrying and giving in marriage?  And our wives bear unto us children, and the same are mighty men, which are like unto men of old, men of great renown.  And they hearkened not unto the words of Noah.

And God saw that the wickedness of men had become great in the earth; and every man was lifted up in the imagination of the thoughts of his heart, being only evil continually. And it came to pass that Noah continued his preaching unto the people, saying: Hearken, and give heed unto my words; Believe and repent of your sins and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ, the Son of God, even as our fathers, and ye shall receive the Holy Ghost, that ye may have all things made manifest; and if ye do not this, the floods will come in upon you; nevertheless they hearkened not.

(Pearl of Great Price | Moses 8:17 - 24)

For many are called, but few are chosen.

Behold, there are many called, but few are chosen.  And why are they not chosen?

(Doctrine and Covenants | Section 121:34)

Because their hearts are set so much upon the things of this world, and aspire to the honors of men, that they do not learn this one lesson— That the rights of the priesthood are inseparably connected with the powers of heaven, and that the powers of heaven cannot be controlled nor handled only upon the principles of righteousness. That they may be conferred upon us, it is true; but when we undertake to cover our sins, or to gratify our pride, our vain ambition, or to exercise control or dominion or compulsion upon the souls of the children of men, in any degree of unrighteousness, behold, the heavens withdraw themselves; the Spirit of the Lord is grieved; and when it is withdrawn, Amen to the priesthood or the authority of that man. Behold, ere he is aware, he is left unto himself, to kick against the pricks, to persecute the saints, and to fight against God.

We have learned by sad experience that it is the nature and disposition of almost all men, as soon as they get a little authority, as they suppose, they will immediately begin to exercise unrighteous dominion.

 Hence many are called, but few are chosen.

No power or influence can or ought to be maintained by virtue of the priesthood, only by persuasion, by long-suffering, by gentleness and meekness, and by love unfeigned; By kindness, and pure knowledge, which shall greatly enlarge the soul without hypocrisy, and without guile— Reproving betimes with sharpness, when moved upon by the Holy Ghost; and then showing forth afterwards an increase of love toward him whom thou hast reproved, lest he esteem thee to be his enemy; That he may know that thy faithfulness is stronger than the cords of death. Let thy bowels also be full of charity towards all men, and to the household of faith, and let virtue garnish thy thoughts unceasingly; then shall thy confidence wax strong in the presence of God; and the doctrine of the priesthood shall distil upon thy soul as the dews from heaven. The Holy Ghost shall be thy constant companion, and thy scepter an unchanging scepter of righteousness and truth; and thy dominion shall be an everlasting dominion, and without compulsory means it shall flow unto thee forever and ever.

(Doctrine and Covenants | Section 121:35 - 46)

(New Testament | Matthew 22:14)

Behold, I tell you these things, even as I also told the people of the destruction of Jerusalem; and my word shall be verified at this time as it hath hitherto been verified.

(Doctrine and Covenants | Section 5:20)

And as you see, we now have the authority and power of GOD to solemnize all blessings; and also the tools to prepare you in all things to meet your maker and make sure that is a pleasant and joyful meetings at the last day.  

These blessings are not only for you, but for your whole family both among the living and the dead. These departed souls have a great many hopes placed in you because they departed this world without these blessings and are anxiously waiting for you to help them. But you cannot help them if you do not help yourself first. We all have to go thru this process. We all have to exercise faith in Christ unto repentance, to be baptized and receive the gift of the Holy Ghost by the Lying of hands. It has been so from the beginning.  If I had the time, I would expound and quote all the scriptures as a reference of the living truth.

And If you do these things as we have done for ourselves and our loved ones, I promise, in the solemnity of the LORD that if you do not harden your heart against these truths you will become Christ like or a Savior on mount Zion. And when your turn comes to return to GOD you and your loved ones will receive you with gladness and surround you, with great shouts of acclamations chanting great hosannas of welcome.  And these truths that I tell you today, you will not find anywhere else.  We are searching the sheep and lambs of GOD out of all parties, sects and denominations. And this is why I am here today dedicating this time and work to you and your loved ones. Because we are not happy to save ourselves, and our families, but we want to save the whole family of Adam or bless the whole world in fulfillment of the promises made from God to our Fathers, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in whose seed, who we are, all the families of the earth will be blessed.

And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.

(Old Testament | Genesis 12:3)

And thy seed shall be as the dust of the earth, and thou shalt spread abroad to the west, and to the east, and to the north, and to the south: and in thee and in thy seed shall all the families of the earth be blessed.

(Old Testament | Genesis 28:14)

And in that day Adam blessed God and was filled, and began to prophesy concerning all the families of the earth, saying: Blessed be the name of God, for because of my transgression my eyes are opened, and in this life I shall have joy, and again in the flesh I shall see God.

(Pearl of Great Price | Moses 5:10)

And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse them that curse thee; and in thee (that is, in thy Priesthood) and in thy seed (that is, thy Priesthood), for I give unto thee a promise that this right shall continue in thee, and in thy seed after thee (that is to say, the literal seed, or the seed of the body) shall all the families of the earth be blessed, even with the blessings of the Gospel, which are the blessings of salvation, even of life eternal.

(Pearl of Great Price | Abraham 2:11)

The choice is all yours.

NOW,  Britney Brisco, family, friends and companions, the choice is all yours. Now like peter asked and said so I say, What prevents you from being Baptized you?  Have faith in Christ, repent and be baptized all of you for the remission of your sins, for the promises of salvation is also made unto you; the LORD is calling you, save yourself from this untoward generation and let us all follow the examples of the ancient saints during the day of Pentecost and receive salvation as those of whom it is also written and bear witness of the same blessings in the Book of Mormon, in the book of the Doctrine and Covenants of the Church of Jesus Christ of latter day saints and in the Book of the Pear of Great Price. Come and receive the blessings of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob upon your souls.   

Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do? Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call.

And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this untoward generation. Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls. And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers. And fear came upon every soul: and many wonders and signs were done by the apostles. And all that believed were together, and had all things common; And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need. And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart, Praising God, and having favour with all the people.  And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.

(New Testament | Acts 2:37 - 47)

This is the threefold mission of the church if Jesus Christ; to preach the gospel, to perfect the saints and to redeem the dead. I testify that all these things are true because the spirit of GOD has made them known unto me. And I now declare them to you for your eternal welfare and profit if you will seek after these blessings.  Thru obedience and sacrifice we can be perfected and in Christ and of this I solemnly testify as one having authority with a single eye for the honor and glory of GOD in the sacred name of the Saviour and Redeemer of the world, even in the name of Jesus Christ, amen.

Your most attentive and dedicated friend, brother and servant in the hands of Christ.
