Timing of the 2nd Coming - According to Prophets and Apostles

[@383mazda]

I loved that president Hinckley quote - live so that if the Savior came tomorrow you wouldn't feel ashamed or embarrassed to meet Him.

[@Twotone-ld1fb]

I'm a very imaginative person and have a lot of art background. So I find it rather easy for me to imagine different possibilities. I was contemplating the 2nd coming as well as the state of the world and wondered to myself what it would be like to be present on the earth when Christ comes again. To be able to stand before him. I imagined myself standing before him and pictured him in much the same way as many of the paintings of him are portrayed. And I could not look him in the eye. It was much like a young child who knows they have done wrong standing before a parent and they can't face the parent and keep trying to look away. I truly felt what the scriptures talk about with the sinners wishing for the earth to cover them and hide them and their sins. Since then I've been trying to make changes in my life so that when I meet Christ after i die, or if im allowed, in this life. That I will be able to look at him with love and not shrink away in embarrassment.

[@TomorrowsChild86]

I was always taught live like if the Lord knocked on your door today you would not be ashamed to let him sit at your table and eat with you… I love what President woodruff said.. live like he is coming tomorrow but go about and do your business…♥️

[@carolhudson3219]

"Time is running out!" This statement could have been said by prophets for generations, and it would be true. But with the times we are experiencing right now, for a prophet to say that and not mean it would be fear mongering. It's not just one or two of the brethern who are talking about the second coming, and none of them are telling us that the time is not now. They are telling us to be prepared. Do you think they are trying to deceive us? To keep us on the straight and narrow path.

[@alohaslots]

Is that deceit or is that forewarning/guidance/nudge in the right direction

[@aritzlizarragaolascoaga6254]

🎉& now we’ve reached the 7 seal. People reason to disbelieve like in the Book of Mormon.

[@carolhudson3219]

@alohaslots I believe they are "nudging in the right direction." And, that time is running out. I believe that President Nelson believes that time is running out. I don't know what that means in terms of time, but the number of warnings the prophets are giving us is unprecedented.

[@carolhudson3219]

It is confusing. And the use of words such as "just atound the corner", "come quickly" that have been used by prophet's for generations make a person wonder if current use of these words are talking about now or the distant future. What's most important to be spiritually prepared. To love and be tolerant of all of God's children. Even those who don't follow His path or agree with what we believe spiritually or temporally. Be ready and encourage others to live like Christ will be here tomorrow.​@aritzlizarragaolascoaga6254

[@TheMikeyb86]

"strait and narrow path." Strait does not equal straight.

[@AndrewCengiz]

President Benson said “a living prophet is more important than a dead prophet”. I also think we could say that what the prophets say today is more important than what they said yesterday. Even the final lesson of the come follow me manual for December 2023 said “It IS coming soon”. You’re sacrificing what they are saying today for what they said a decade ago.

[@templesofjesus]

Yes 🙌

[@fernandaclementelopez2506]

So what abt Isaias?..that even Jesus mention in the scrptures to study the words of Isaias...the profets of old does matter!!!! What abt Nephi? That saw almost everything...from the birth of Jesus to almost the last days??? If they are not important, why we have scriptures???? Why we have so many scriptures?? What abt Joseph Smith??? He was one of the greatest prophets...the gospel was restored because he was called of God!!!!

I noticed that in CFM also. It stool out, like REALLY STOOD OUT. I’ve never seen the brethren being so explicit with their warnings. No active member will have excuse if the Lord comes in the next 5-10 yrs (or sooner).

[@Adam-yr3ph]

God said in Quran about Jesus (peace be upon him): " And [mention] when the angels said, "O Mary, indeed God has chosen you and purified you and chosen you above the women of the worlds. O Mary, be devoutly obedient to your Lord and prostrate and bow with those who bow [in prayer]. That is from the news of the unseen which We reveal to you, [O Muhammad]." (Quran 3:42-43) " [And mention] when the angels said, “O Mary, indeed God gives you good tidings of a word from Him, whose name will be the Messiah, Jesus, the son of Mary - distinguished in this world and the Hereafter and among those brought near [to God ]. He will speak to the people in the cradle and in maturity and will be of the righteous. She said, "My Lord, how will I have a child when no man has touched me?" [The angel] said, "Such is God ; He creates what He wills. When He decrees a matter, He only says to it, 'Be,' and it is. He will teach him the Scripture and wisdom, the Torah and the Gospel, And [make him] a messenger to the Children of Israel, [who will say], 'Indeed I have come to you with a sign from your Lord in that I design for you from clay [that which is] like the form of a bird, then I breathe into it and it becomes a bird by permission of God.(Quran 03:45-49) "[Mention] when God said, "O Jesus, indeed I will take you and raise you to Myself and purify you from those who disbelieve and make those who follow you [in submission to God alone] superior to those who disbelieve until the Day of Resurrection. Then to Me is your return, and I will judge between you concerning that in which you used to differ."(Quran 3:55 )

[@effervescentrelief]

Direct references to the second coming by the Brethren have increased exponentially in the past 5 years. This is not some fanciful thinking, but there are some who are actually tracking what they've been saying. They are calling us to be ready because we are in that season. I don't think it can be denied when you look around and see the troubles in the world, as well as the troubles in the Church. Persecutions are increasing rapidly as well. We are not just experiencing troubles, but man has now gained the ability to literally destroy the entire world in one fell swoop. The ability to create designer lethal diseases, weapons that stretch the imagination, tyranny that is here and is coming that will make any kind of oppression of the past look like a visit to the park are all here. The Lord says He has to come back or all flesh would be destroyed. Everything is lining up for His return. No time in history has ever been this chaotic. The Church itself is reeling internally due to various activism and other issues going on that is trying the faith of good members. People in droves are leaving the Church, and all Christian churches in general. This mess in the Middle East is slowly ramping up into something greater. The fact the US is on the verge of collapse should be a red flag like none other as this nation is the only thing stemming the tide of "the world" coming against Israel, and if/when this nation stumbles things will get spicy really fast. I'm just saying, no time before has been quite like this. There have been tumultuous times before, but today is truly unprecedented. Already I am seeing the Saints grumbling that the Lord is delaying His coming. Obviously much needs to happen, but things can happen very rapidly. And then we are in the midst of a generational cycle, the Pride cycle if you will, and we have come to the end of a long cycle where the world is set to drastically change. These occur ever 80-100 years and here we are. The elites are pushing their "Great Reset" because they aren't stupid, they know history, and they know where we are. Of course this Great Reset is a set of changes they wish to see made that would have sweeping changes in how the entire world works. It's a technocratic totalitarian global communism. This shouldn't be surprising since this is Satan's plan and he is trying to establish his plan ahead of the return of Christ. Satan always has a counterfeit version of everything the Lord does, and he is rapidly trying to cram this Great Reset upon the world. It's perfectly fitting at this time that he would be pushing this agenda. We are totally nearing the end of the book of Helaman and about the begin the third book of Nephi, if you catch my drift.

[@NsTheName]

My question is: what needs to happen? People keep saying that tired phrase and then when asked, they can’t answer what actually still needs to happen. And then if they happen to provide a list of things they think haven’t happened yet I would say: prove it.

Nah, 'Time is running out" from president Nelson is more then enough for me. It overwrites everything you read that indicates is not close. It's because i heard and saw with my own eyes & ears. And it felt right. I think is extremely close.

[@SegoLily]

President Nelson is not given to hyperbole (as per his wife). And he would have known how the Saints would hear that particular message. It would have been easier to just not say that. It's clear he didn't say it casually or without great weight. I think when he says "Time is Running Out" he means.... time is running out. :P And not in the cosmic sense. But in a way we standard mortals would understand it. And yes, the most significant thing is to be prepared - regardless of whether we die and meet the Savior, or whether we are here when He returns. But I think we ought to take the prophets at their word. Love your videos, and I'm always excited to see them. Keep up the good work! But I do feel this one misses the mark a bit.

[@templesofjesus]

@@SegoLilyagreed

[@MommaCrissa]

Remember he did say it before Covid. When I had looked back, he was saying it for all those who would die. We all needed to repent. However, I think there's more death to come ("for those that are alive") so yes, time is running out before this. We need to be ready for that more than than Christ's return. Maybe if we are ready and experience death we will be able to help from the other side. If we aren't we won't be worthy to help there.

[@templesofjesus]

@@MommaCrissa President Nelson was not referencing physical mortal death for some people as Time is running out! There is context to his message, and also it was not a mass (percentage-wise) death event for the saints. To each their own though.

[@MommaCrissa]

​@@templesofjesusYou must not have read that talk in awhile. He is specifically reviewing death and be ready for the hereafter. He talks about his daughter Wendys death and that she was ready. He talks about being ready so we can be with our families hereafter. He didn't once say be ready for Christ's coming. Even the main paragraph at the top of what his talk is about is here "Jesus Christ invites us to take the covenant path back home to our Heavenly Parents and be with those we love." Back home means death in a kind and nice way. Read the paragraph before he says "time is running out". Anyway, it is what I did a couple years ago and realized he was prophesying a year before Covid lockdowns to be prepared because time "was" running out. We should all know that in the near future part of Christ's coming is death. There will be a lot more coming too. Why do you think President Nelson said to "think Celestial"? If we don't then we run around with fear with all that we will be seeing and feeling or perhaps experiencing. In the end before many are resurrected and his coming we know that there will be "few" left alive. But if we are faithful we will be either quickened or resurrected at his coming, otherwise we will be burned with the wicked. If we all were straight forward with what is going to happen we would all be saying this. However instead the easy way to say it is, go read 3rd Nephi. The scriptures can tell us, but do we believe? I hope you have the faith to look forward with joy during the upcoming days despite what it means. We should do that always.❤

[@br5339]

Love your videos and the app. You missed this one…and a few others that speak similarly. Rough timing here seems pretty clear. October 2020 General Conference “You sisters, your daughters, your granddaughters, and the women you have nurtured will be at the heart of creating that society of people who will join in glorious association with the Savior. You will be an essential force in the gathering of Israel and in the creation of a Zion people who will dwell in peace in the New Jerusalem.” - President Eyring

[@myAmericanGirlLife]

Ressurected beings will be among the people living there too ....

[@MJuneMarshall]

Creating is the operative word here. We, our daughters and GRANDdaughters will be at the heart of CREATING that society of people who will join...He didn't say WE would join, but that we'd be Creating the society that would. We'll be helping to gather and to create. I too wish to be further along and I also think that prophecies yet to be fulfilled can happen so quickly our heads would spin, pushing the timeline up. But we also need to be careful and clear about what the prophets and apostles are actually saying. I hope they tell us something more significant this weekend.

[@renatomercurio4774]

Yes it couldn't be more obvious. And the men, who ignore this, are just jealous, that it was told to the women first, that enjoy facts and clarity.

[@Beachead2050]

I normally agree with a lot of what you say but not in this video. First your comments from Pres Nelson referring to 1 Nephi 14 are pertaining to what John wrote about on the great and abominable church and its fall. We will witness that. Just because Nephi is then commanded to stop writing doesn't mean that everything Nephi wrote is prior to the book of Revelations. The other part where I really disagree which is "At that day the father will shall commence, in preparing the way for the fulfilling of his covenants which he hath made to his people who are of the house of Israel" This is where we will see both the Jews and Lamanites accept the gospel and they will be a blessed people. We will witness this. All of these are events that occur close to when the Savior returns. Pres Nelson has said the work is hastening and a lot of the events described by John, Daniel, Joseph Smith and others will start to happen quickly and soon. Eight years ago I would have told you that I would be dead before the second coming (I'm 46). I now believe its going to happen within the next 10-15 years. At the end of the day we should be vigilant and knowledgeable on the signs of the second coming and our spirituality needs to be at its best so we can receive revelations and have the constant companionship of the holy ghost.

[@michaeldunwoody3629]

I agree.

[@elliotmorrell425]

My sentiments exactly

[@effervescentrelief]

President Nelson also said from now until his coming we would see his most marvelous works and miracles. I would think time is close if such things are occurring.

[@evabuehler9905]

All good points… I couldn’t help but wonder why he did this presentation, in this way!? I’ve never had that thought during his presentations before. But, this felt off, perhaps not spiritually motivated in the same way, or possibly because we all have the gifts of discernment and nothing is being left to interpret here. I don’t know, but what you said, makes sense. 🫤

[@christiancabrera3197]

Dont be disappointed if the second coming is not within 10-15 years. I think thats the point of the video. Be prepared now like your death is the second coming. Don’t lose faith if you don’t see it in your lifetime.

[@KylonRic]

Your content is well researched and I appreciate your level headed and grounded approach. However, I noticed you used a lot of older quotes. Even your more modern quotes were mostly from apostles or prophets who have passed on for close to a decade now. “Of the Savior’s words that no man knows the day or the hour of the coming of the Son of Man (see Matt. 24:36), the Prophet asked: “Did Christ speak this as a general principle throughout all generations? Oh, no, He spoke in the present tense. No man that was then living upon the footstool of God knew the day or the hour. But He did not say that there was no man throughout all generations that should not know the day or the hour. No, for this would be in flat contradiction with other scripture. For the prophet says that God will do nothing but what He will reveal unto His servants the prophets. Consequently, if it is not made known to the prophets, it will not come to pass.” - Joseph Smith So if older prophets like Pres Hinkley said he didn’t know when the time was, and no one does, he was correct. Has our modern prophet said that? Not at all. And what has our modern prophet been saying? Well, President Nelson gave a talk about a fire that consumed everything in Paradise, California. And said “time is running out.” And this quote from President StevenJ Lund: “Then he (President Nelson) went on for about 10 minutes without taking a breath, you know, 95-year-old President Nelson, and just his whole visage just lighted up with enthusiasm. He talked to me about this final work of the gathering and his deployment of the youth of the church to make that happen. This thing that has been talked about by apostles and prophets for as long as there have been people on this Earth, looking forward to the end game, when the earth will be rolled up like a scroll and the Savior will come again. And I walked out of that room, just with this intense understanding and knowledge confirmed to me by the Spirit that I share with you and that is: that He's coming, He really is and it's imminent. I don't know what that means. All I know is that there's a sense of urgency about the brethren.” Again, this sense of urgency seems to be important for a reason. It’s not just to “inspire us to do the work we need to do even though the second coming is likely very far off.” That’s not a sense of urgency 😂 Urgency means it’s imminent and you truly believe President Nelson’s words that “time is running out.” Not figuratively, not because our individual time might run out when we expire unexpectedly, no, ALL of our time is running out.

[@templesofjesus]

[@evabuehler9905]

[@nickolitay8644]

[@sunshinydays6916]

@KylonRic - May I please get a reference for that awesome quote by Elder S J Lund?

[@ChrisHolmes-db7fi]

That Joseph Smith quote is interesting. I never thought of it that way before. Interesting though in regard to not knowing the day or hour, what about the year? In revelations 12 Joseph smith translation it talks that the women would be sheltered for a thousand 2 hundred and 3 score years. Thats 1260 years. The woman is the church. Church was established in 1830. The millennium could be counted as 1000 of those years. 1830 plus 260 gives us the year 2090. Since Satan will be unleashed at the end of the millennium id imagine the sheltering would end at that time. Now 2090 is still a ways off and things in the current world seem to be progressing faster then that. There have been prophets in the past that have urged urgency saying Christs second coming is near but are now long dead. I don't know that it is as near as many people like to think because there are some things that need to happen still that i can't see happening overnight. Like the world as a whole rejecting the church and persecuting the saints causing wide spread chaos and a righteous remnant need to flee to zion from the entire world. I don't think we are near that tipping point yet and will likely take many years at the rate temples are being built and the church is growing. But at the same time there have been things I thought wouldn't happen quickly and did. There is also the possibility that some of the urging being done by prophets is because they are so influenced by the holy ghost and the spirit of Christ that they view the second coming as if it was the very hour. In the timeline of god it might as well be. There is also the fact that there are going to be great trials and tribulations before the second coming that many of us might not live through. So urging us to be prepared for it insures that even if we die we are ready, Also makes us more able to deal with the tribulations and persecutions spiritually when they happen. We will need a strong foundation built on the rock of the redeemer. So I'm just going to try and do my best to meet god today and continue to watch for signs.

If the world can be fixed, then it might be worth considering fighting for freedom and righteousness, but if it's the second coming, then the only hope is for Jesus to sort out the world after it burns.

There has been an unmistakeabke accelleration of signs and events. Above all, can't you just FEEL it? It has become palpable. People falling away from faith in massive numbers. People of faith barely clinging to survival (both spiritually and even literally). I honestly can't help but feel we are extremely close to a crescendo. Like all the statements, prophecies, visions, etc. Are all lines moving closer together; to soon touch at a great climax or endpoint. One final thought... how much more wicked can the world become?

[@ThePackman627]

The only quote that you didn't mention that I feel like we heard recently at a general conference within the past 3 years was from President Nelson where he said something along the lines of "between now and the second coming the Lord will perform his greatest miracles." He didn't directly say that the second coming was going to be happening in a year but it is interesting to know that after that point and whenever the Lord arrives that the Lord will be performing his greatest miracles

[@MommaCrissa]

Which could be resurrection. If we read the last line of the verse in 1 Thessalonians 4:16 the dead will rise BEFORE he comes so that those who are alive and those who are resurrected will be caught up to meet him....for his second coming. The verse seems to go so fast that we might think it goes boom, boom all at the same time. But how many other scriptures are there that seem to spread it out at least a little. A little could even be a year or two. Or some other number. If we are not to fear the coming of Christ then we should not fear death. We need to be honoring and standing up for Christ no matter what. The outcome is never death forever. If we truly believe in God's love and promises we truly know others who have passed on are doing a great work preparing for this time, because there is an end date for them too before they are resurrected and with us before meeting Christ for his second coming. It seems like even after all the study we have done do we not remember the second coming involves a lot of things, it's not just one moment where we say tomorrow it will happen. It's a series of events of preparation. That series of events and "time" IS what we should be apart of, because if we don't, when he actually comes to the world, we will be burned and now sitting on the other side doing who knows what and not taking part in the millennium. Maybe those on the other side are preparing some of the things for them? We have to be preparing everyday.

Personally I feel like many saints today are using the second coming almost as a “get out of jail free” card for death. Man is appointed to die. It’s a necessary and proper step. Just as birth. We need to prepare to die. If we are prepared to die. We will be prepared for the second coming of the lord. And whether in mortality or in death. If we are prepared. We will be with the lord when he comes. And we need to do the preparatory work of gathering for the second coming.

There always seems to be overreactions to topics about the 2nd Coming. So many members live in fear instead of faith. Just be prepared and then it doesn’t matter when it is. We are living in perilous times, but so has every generation in the history of the world. This presentation should give us all something to think about but not to argue about. The members are so divided on so many doctrines. Just live as though the Savior will come tomorrow, and you will be fine.

[@lorraineorlando7424]

I’m not living in fear at all (except as a mother concerned for her family). I eagerly await His coming! Although I am sad to see the destruction of my beautiful country, I still feel that it is an amazing time to be alive. I believe that many Saints feel this way as well! Prophecies are being fulfilled left and right and in a very natural way. Perhaps many have been fulfilled that we’re not aware of. When a living prophet says “Time is running out” I listen!! But I’ve been a watcher for a long time and I’ve felt the urgency for the last 20 yrs…..jus sayin.

Thank you for this carefully curated collection of teachings from scripture and modern prophets on this topic. I appreciate the perspective shared and agree with your synopsis and conclusion.

Thx for being real n honest in your sharing. Real life is both wonderful n messy. It is my decision to choose to believe, to act positively, and also acknowledge we are living in an imperfect world.

As we all know....each of these events can move fast and almost undetected if we are not watching.

This was done with much diligence and work. Your effort and outline is so very much appreciated. Thank you brother!!

[@gvbingham]

What does it profit the servant of the vineyard to say that the Lord delayeth His coming? What does it profit the guests to the wedding feast to not be excited and expectant for the doors to be open? What does it profit the goodman of the house to not be on watch every night for the thief to come? What does it profit the bride to be unconcerned and unexcited for the bridegroom to come? What does it profit the expectant mother to not count the days and the hours with hope and eagerness to delivery? As for myself. I'll stand firm and steadfast to the ONLY safe way of looking at the Lord's coming. And it is in the immediate. ALWAYS the proverbial "tonight" or "tomorrow" this month. This year. It is the only true and faithful way to view it if I interpret well the words of the Lord on the very subject through his many parables and analogies on the subject.

Our church website specifically states ‘about 2,000 AD’ for the seventh seal also. John the Revelator also did not mean some of the symbolism to be exacts, but as a likeness in foretelling what things could be like, so it’s not really that imperative to know EXACTLY which seal we’re in, for this EXACT point in time.

[@rdgale2000]

I agree with your conclusion. We should concentrate on living our lives as if the second coming were tomorrow. For those who pass through the veil, that may be their own 'second coming' when they are brought back into the presents of the Lord. What I think about is Noah and the building of the ark. He spent 600 years building the ark, declaring to the people to repent, for the day of judgement was soon at hand (600 years is soon?). Remember that time is only measured to man, not in the presents of God. He knows the beginning from end because everything is present before Him. How is that done? I don't know. My mind cannot comprehend something like that, but I'm looking forward to learning in the coming days (eons).

I do appreciate your hard work. But I agree with most of these comments. It seems to be disingenuous to the apostleship to discount all the apostles words because they're not the prophet. Including Elder Rasband sayimg, "We are the ones charged with ushering in the second coming." I didnt quite follow quoting so many quotes about how close the second coming is and to be prepared in order to make a point that it's not close. We may not know the day nor the hour but we have ABSOLUTELY been given signs to know the season.

[@andrewsilver3366]

Going by the time he said that, in 2020, then the farthest time beyond now where that statement (of us ushering in the second coming) still applies is 100 years from 2020 at the latest, and probably more like 80 years for a maximum amount of time. So it’s reasonable to suppose that Christ will return sometime in the next 80 years, and we don’t really know more than that.

[@SunnyCalifornia2023]

[@codeoverdrive]

so does this mean that many of us WILL witness some of these events?

[@DebiT-HOPEISALIVE]

In the earliest days of the Restoration, Joseph Smith believed in ernest, that he was called to prepare a people for the eminent arrival of Christ. He knew that he would witness the Second Coming of the Lord in the flesh. Over time, he came to understand that many events would require a great many years to come to pass. I'm quite sure that if Our Father in Heaven wanted it to happen tomorrow, it would. But, the idea was that in order to save as many of His Children as possible, it requires time. Noah preached for many years. Not just a week, a month, or even a year. People in his time lived for up to a thousand years. He was preparing for the Flood for nearly 100 years. Joseph told Emma that the Lord was going to let him rest "for a little while." He will see the Second Coming in the flesh. I think the real question is... if it happens tomorrow, am I ready? Good work Kevin. Your careful preparation is evident.

[@MommaCrissa]

At 17:45 in your presentaion is where I believe we are at, or looking to happen in the very near future. This aligns with 3 Nephi.

[@samtate2011]

Some modern day prophets have suggested that the righteous in the last days WILL know the time when Christ will come. Joseph Smith was not given a clear answer regarding the second coming of Christ, but I think many in our generation do sense the timing of things. As a young boy (born in the 80s) I was aware that roughly 2000 years after Christ's ascension to heaven "this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven." God has a time and order to things and I believe He has revealed that order and time to many in the last days, I don't believe it is a secret and although it is plain to see, no one knows when they will be called upon to die, THAT is far more important.

[@dougmetcalf2895]

There are plenty of recent quotes telling us to get ready, not delay our preparation, etc, but these are the only two quotes I've found from General Conference in my lifetime that specifically address the timing itself: President Boyd K. Packer, October, 2011: "Sometimes you might be tempted to think as I did from time to time in my youth: “The way things are going, the world’s going to be over with. The end of the world is going to come before I get to where I should be.” Not so! You can look forward to doing it right-getting married, having a family, seeing your children and grandchildren, maybe even great-grandchildren." President Henry B. Eyring, April, 2023: "The rising generation will become the nurturers of the generation to follow. The multiplier effect will produce a miracle. It will spread and grow over time, and the Lord’s kingdom on earth will be prepared and ready to greet Him with shouts of hosanna. There will be peace on earth."

[@lukeslc-xd8ds]

In the Book of Mormon, an angel told one of the prophets something like this: The time is not too far distant when the Son of God will come down and dwell among men. That was about 80 years or so before His birth. So, "not too far distant" was 80 years.

[@scott596]

2027-2033 some time after this, so In the next Thousand Year's ! In the Morning of the Third Day

[@scott596]

When does Jesus Christ Return ? Jesus Christ Return's in the Morning of the Third Day a Day is a Thousand Year's and Jesus Christ Ascended into the Cloud's of Heaven in-between 27 AD 33 AD so We are about to Enter the Third Day After 2027-2033

[@cordellnebeker9748]

What are your thoughts on President Eyring’s talk “Sisters in Zion”’ where he said, “You sisters, your daughters, your granddaughters, and the women you have nurtured will be at the heart of creating that society of people who will join in glorious association with the Savior. You will be an essential force in the gathering of Israel and in the creation of a Zion people who will dwell in peace in the New Jerusalem.” I think many of us want the Savior to come soon, and so it becomes easy for us to believe it will happen. I personally think they are major events that have to occur that the whole world will experience, i.e. restoration of the gospel and spread throughout the world. I think we have to be careful to assume we know exactly how all of the other events will occur. Some might be apparent others may not be readily apparent. President Hinkley in 2004 said in a conference address that the prophecy of Joel has been fulfilled. Nobody at that time thought or even fathomed that the prophecy had been fulfilled, many today still say they don’t think President Hinkley really meant it was fulfilled. What! How many other prophecies have been fulfilled that we think have not. If it is to come as a thief in the night, many will be surprised, even Latter Day Saints. But I believe the Spirit if we can put off our own wished will prepare us. I once looked at how many times President Monson talked about the Second coming in conference talks. Only once, whereas President Nielson mentioned it in almost every conference talk in his first 2 to 3 years as President of the Church. To me that is showing more urgency in our preparation. I really like all of your work.

For even the elect of God will lose heart in the days to come. Despite there being a promise... doesn't mean what's coming will be easy. In fact it will be very hard for all. For we all need purifying. And our true nature's will become manifest. Are you will to sacrafice and suffer to not compromise your divine nature? Have you cultivated patience tolerance mercy and charity? It can only be embodied through the application of it while in service to others. Doing such for the perfect stranger is the best way. Then we must maintain that fortitude of character through our coming tribulations too. We will all need to be like Job.

[@nickolitay8644]

Says ezra‘s quote is invalid because it was before he was a prophet but before that was quoting other apostles before being a prophet, validating their emphasis that we don’t know when his coming is. To pray and look forward to his coming is to also understand the prophecies and events into anticipate, as if he were to come in your lifetime. to always dismiss it and say “ well we don’t know when he’s coming, so you just need to prepare as if you’re going to die”tomorrow doesn’t actually prepare you for his coming. to actually be prepared for his coming you act as if he is coming in your life so you do the things required to prepare as you study these miraculous, marvelous prophecies and events to come

[@keithmckee7130]

Think celestially and you will realize that whether he comes in 20 years, or 200 years-it’s still right around the corner. The sense of urgency is for the work to be completed.

The front row seats of what will happen is the "power" descended upon righteous saints...to fight off....evil etc. This is before Christ is coming. So yes, this is what your saying.

There is a whole lot of confusion around this subject and I like your timeline(s) more than most of them or all.

But in short, I am not a prophet, even if I beleive, it to be one of my gifts in some cases. And I will not die and I will be without pain in the very last days and it will be 2034 (but started in the past with JS and continues 7 or less or more years before this and might even have already started to continue without us knowing it). But I will not loose faith, if I am completely wrong. And it is not right for the world to know it. And if we were told the year, we could just as well put an end to the suffering and stop it immediately. But God wants to save as many souls as even possible up to the very bitter end.

Is there a possibility that there is something wrong with the calendar we are using now? Because the calendar we use today is called the Gregorian Calendar, it was followed in the name of Pope Gregory. So if it can be proven that the Calendar we follow today is wrong, it means that we are all in the wrong year and this has a big effect on the calculations of the second coming.

[@Baaxonda]

Calculations?!? ONLY the Father knows.

[@jasonsellers56]

Yes, our calendar is wrong. The days of each month and year are wrong, and even the year itself is anywhere from 7-9 years off (meaning it has actually been almost 2031-2033 years since Jesus' birth, not 2024). But does this matter for calculations? No. We should be preparing our hearts and minds to see our Savior, not trying to calculate the days and years until his coming. The exact year or the correct calendar method can be fun to know, but it ultimately has nothing to do with when Christ will come again. "The lord of that [wicked] servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of,..." (Joseph Smith - Matthew 1:53) Whatever day someone calculates, you can rest assured it probably won't be on that day. The point is to "calculate" *every* day as a day when either Jesus will return, or when you could return to Him via death.

[@obamazadork]

If the angels and Savior himself doesn’t know the exact time when He will come, it is useless for us to guess and ruminate about it. We are only to watch for signs, and try to live worthily to abide the day. And help our families and as many people as possible to do the same.

"FRONT ROW SEATS TO THE END"

[@the.saintriot]

Do you see why members may leave the church based on our modern prophet, seers and revelators? It’s a sad excuse but I can see their point when words are spoken like this from earlier prophets about His coming.

[@lesley4215]

Parsing prophets quotes in order to fit your agenda is wicked. Nobody knows the day of the Lord's return but I would want to be the person who encourages people to be ready rather than telling them it is not!! Like a thief in the night.

[@bartercoins]

The Lord will return between fall of 2074 and spring of 2075.
