Children or not, this is a sad understanding of Christ’s charity towards little children. Our Savior was the purest example of how we should treat and love our children. I am so grateful for His example, as I need as much help as possible.
Here He is speaking of, interacting with, and healing children.
It’s funny when people get so mad about being labeled DezNat. Every time that happens I think of a comment my friend made right before he left the mission (oh no, mission story 18yrs later).
He once said he didn’t understand the fear we have as members of the true

Church of Jesus Christ to be labeled religious “fanatics”, because to be exalted we’d essentially have to be “fanatics” through keeping our covenants (temple and others). To the world, we are fanatics.

When the Lord comes to visit His people at Adam-ondi-Ahman, He will not only receive all the keys pertaining His Priesthood, but we will sustain Him as the God, King, and Ruler of this and all worlds. At that time the ecclesiastical mission of The Church will be joined with
the governmental mission.
Satan has been building a kingdom of his own, but once the True God of this world performs those ordinances at Adam-ondi-Ahman, the god of this world (Satan) will rage against the True Kingdom. He will know when this happens, he and his angles.

In our study of scripture, we seek patterns so we can recognize the Lord's dealings with men. Patterns teach us history & prepare us for the future.
In short, we ought to identify order as we await the Lord's Second Coming. God is the same yesterday/today/forever.

Jesus' disciple, Thomas, was incredulous that Christ had returned. He refused to accept the word of others.
God allows us to grow in faith. If we were always first presented with only what we see, our downstream decisions would lead to condemnation.
The Word causes faith growth

I love you, @RonaldARasband. I believe you are trying your best. I have felt a strong witness that President Nelson is a prophet of God. I also believe that the church’s messaging around Covid needs to change, especially for the sake of our youth. Hear me out (thread) /
During a recent youth fireside in S Africa, a teen asked if he should get vaccinated. You told him to follow the prophet’s counsel & get vaccinated.
Are you aware of the data that for young men, hospitalization 4 vaccine side effects is more likely than Covid hospitalization?/
Are you aware of the data that for young men, hospitalization 4 vaccine side effects is more likely than Covid hospitalization?/
In fact, the vax poses more threat than Covid itself for young men in a myriad of ways (see ref)
Statistically, it makes no sense for young men to receive this vax. New data out of Germany suggests /

We believe that Adam is the name of the first man on every new Earth.
The Adam of this Earth is Michael the Archangel of pre-existence.
You too had a name and title before you were born. Like Jeremiah, we were all known before the womb.
Adam was a man, but different from us

He was created in immortality - a transfigured state, without blood.
Still, the immortality that Adam experienced originally in Eden was not an immutable one, for he had not yet experienced a death and a resurrection which seals the temporal body to the spirit body permanently.

Some say that Jesus was fathered of the Holy Ghost - this is not so. He is the Only Begotten Son of the Father *in the flesh*.
Mortal mother - Immortal/Celestial Father, literally.
(Remember, Adam was born immortal, without blood, Celestial Mother and Father)

We do not believe in reincarnation. A resurrected body is NEVER to be again divided, spirit from Temple.
We believe in Eternal Identity and Progression.
I reject vehemently the psuedo-esoteric-LDS doctrine of "multiple probation" - it is in direct opposition to Resurrection.

Who/what is the Godhead?
We believe they are 3 distinct Divine and related individuals who are unified in purpose and nature through a Covenant and who govern the Universe.
Two have bodies of Flesh and Bone while the Holy Ghost only a Spirit Body currently.

He had a Resurrected and Celestially Glorified body before our spiritual birth to Him. He is literally the Father of our Spirit Bodies which were born into these [temporal] bodies and will be raised to immortality through Christ

“Are you not ashamed of such pretentions?” she said. “You, who are no more than any ignorant plow boy of our land!”

God chooses the “weak things of the earth” to do his work. There are many good reasons for this. A humble man is teachable & obedient to his Lord’s will. Most importantly, Godly miracles wrought by humble beings cannot be misinterpreted as intellectual sophistry or might of arm.
God made the little shepherd David into a giant slayer, a king, & father of the lineage from whence the Messiah wld be born. He made Joseph, a boy left in a pit to die, later enslaved & imprisoned, into an interpreter of dreams, a leader in Egypt, & a savior of famished nations.
If you’ve been considering receiving your temple endowment but hesitate bc temples aren’t fully open yet, DON’T WAIT. My daughter received her endowments in a temple open at stage 2. It was an unreal, unforgettable experience.
There’s something special about knowing a temple opened because you would be there. YOU. The Lord opened a temple for you. A staff of temple workers gleefully arrived there to help just you (& consequently are able to attend themselves bc YOU came.)
My daughter & her parents were the only patrons in the entire temple. (Obviously not always going to be true at stage 2, but maybe close.) The whole session was empty, dedicated to one person. She was able to sit alone w/the Lord in the Celestial Room for as long as she wanted.
When this was released, it seemed rather dull to me. Why a proclamation abt practices already common to most of the civilized world? But here we are. & here I am, tweeting it all:
The Family: A Proclamation to the World
First Presidency & Quorum of the Twelve Apostles
Sept 1995
The Family: A Proclamation to the World
First Presidency & Quorum of the Twelve Apostles
Sept 1995
“We, The First Presidency & the Council of the 12 Apostles, of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, solemnly proclaim that marriage between a man & a woman is ordained of God & that the family is central to the Creator’s plan for the eternal destiny of His children.”
“All Human Beings—male & female—are created in the image of God. Each is a beloved spirit son or daughter of heavenly parents, & as such, each has a divine nature & destiny. Gender is an essential characteristic of individual premortal, mortal, and eternal identity & purpose.”
“Woe unto you, scribes & Pharisees, hypocrites!” (Matt23) Now as then, we live in an impossibly complex social system set up to virtue-signal & cancel people. No one is left out—there are rules that reach anyone. Why? Bc scared people don’t speak. They are easily led. #HearHim
How did Christ handle it? He spoke the truth anyway. He valued eternal law over personal comfort. He rebuked the oppressors & defended the weak. He abandoned all thought of reputation, even until they took his life. Will we exhibit the smallest part of his courage to follow him?
This life is made to cancel us. If you haven’t been cancelled by the world yet, now is a good time try harder. If you find yourself at ease with society, examine your priorities. What can you do today to remind God you’re on his side, & remind the devil you’re not his friend?
“Your spirit is an eternal entity. Your Heavenly Father has known you for a very long time. You, as His son or daughter, were chosen by Him to come to earth at this precise time, to be a leader in His great work on earth.” #RussellMNelson
He has known you for a very long time, and you have known *him* for a very long time. He hasn’t forgotten you; he watches every moment & assists even when you don’t notice. You, on the other hand, had to forget. That’s the test. To win is to remember, embrace, & endure. #HearHim
This is the entire individual work of a mortal human being: to remember him. It’s in you, waiting to be discovered. We who have already remembered are under covenant to help others remember, because he loves them as infinitely as he loves each of us.
“Above all, do not lie to yourself. A man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to a point where he does not discern any truth either in himself or anywhere around him, and thus falls into disrespect towards himself and others...” #Dostoyevsky
“Not respecting anyone, he ceases to love, and having no love, he gives himself up to passions and coarse pleasures in order to occupy and amuse himself, and in his vices reaches complete bestiality, and it all comes from lying continually to others and himself.” #Dostoyevsky
Why is self-deception a prominent feature in self-destruction? Because moral absolutes exist & are inborn to each person on earth—“It is given unto them to know good from evil; wherefore they are agents unto themselves” (Moses 6:56). We know. To excuse sin, we must lie.
“The Word of God can take care of itself, & will do so if we preach it, & cease defending it. See you that lion. They have caged him for his preservation; shut him up behind iron bars to secure him from his foes! ...” #Spurgeon
“See how a band of armed men have gathered together to protect the lion. What a clatter they make with their swords and spears! These mighty men are intent upon defending a lion. Oh fools, & slow of heart! ... ” #Spurgeon
“Open that door! Let the lord of the forest come forth free. Who will dare to encounter him? What does he want with your guardian care? Let the pure gospel go forth in all its lion-like majesty, & it will soon clear its own way, ease itself of its adversaries.” #Spurgeon
Thoughts for the coming year: “The Savior saw more in those humble fishermen whom He called to follow Him than they initially saw in themselves; He saw a vision of who they could become...” #OVincentHaleck
“He knew of their goodness and potential, and He acted to call them. They were not experienced at first, but as they followed, they saw His example, felt His teachings, and became His disciples.” #OVincentHaleck GC April 2020
Maybe you’ve felt to give up on something that would expand your soul, something you really suspected may be the Lord’s will for you, by thinking “Well, I knew I could never live up to that.” But God knows who you are. He knows all that you’re capable of doing and becoming.
I love the Book of Mormon! Over the years I have collected unique printings and different publications of this amazing book (garage sales, DI, and book stores). A thread!
I wanted to share some of these with my #DezNat family.

This one is pretty cool. It's a "fireside edition" with lots of room for notes. I've never seen another one of these after this DI purchase years ago.
This is one of my older versions. 1920 publication with no cover title printing on the front.
And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant, which I made unto thy father Enoch; that when men should keep all my commandments, Zion should again come on the earth, the city of Enoch which I have caught up unto myself.
And this is mine everlasting covenant, that when thy posterity shall embrace the truth, and look upward, then shall Zion look downward, and all the heavens shall shake with gladness, and the earth shall tremble with joy;
“Allow Him to make more of you than you can make of yourself on your own. Treasure His involvement. Sometimes we consider changes in our plans as missteps on our journey. Think of them more as first steps to being 'on the Lord’s errand' (D&C 64:29)."

It’s been a tough year. Relentless calamity, social instability, pandemic lockdowns, political chaos. Life events of the simplest nature & need have been cancelled. People we love or admire have buckled under the pressure, let us down, faded away. The isolation can be crippling.
The road, however straight, feels to be narrowing with every step. The demoralizing noise from the great & spacious building is mind-numbing. Dangerous detours are tempting. The haze of despair is thick & blinding. It’s so much. It is just so much.
I have a few. Let me start with an inspiration that happened to someone else, for me. One morning in late November, my neighbor crossed the street to be at my door. This is a risk to her. She is legally blind...
She can see vague shapes and bright colors. She’s usually accompanied by her husband when she comes by. This time she was alone and carrying a gift basket—an added risk. The basket contained Christmas treats, toys, and books, for my then-small children.
Her family are the kindest & most Christian of people, though not members of the Church. “Your family has been on my heart,” she said. “I don’t know why.” I knew why, and I told her immediately. My dad had passed away within the hour from a long and terrible illness.
Sometimes you feel lost, deeply foreign in your own life. It’s scary & nonsensical, everywhere you turn feels less familiar. “Surely I’m in the wrong place.” But then you find a new treasure so obscure that you never could have found it on a known path. But God knew where it was.
Most of us are feeling like foreigners right now. The Lord does not want us to suffer. He also knows that hard new roads can increase our faith & bring us to hidden treasures. Sight distance is incredibly short. We must trust him & listen carefully, manage moments one by one.
“Therefore, dearly beloved brethren, let us cheerfully do all things that lie in our power; and then may we stand still, with the utmost assurance, to see the salvation of God, and for his arm to be revealed.” —D&C 123:17 #HearHim
Jesus Christ orchestrated the creation all things we see.
All the stars and their planets in nursery that we can comprehend are the workmanship of that Holy Son.
So why is OUR Earth so special as to be the only sphere to which Jehova came to perform his probation of flesh?

You who was born to the same planet that is to be crowned with the highest Celestial Glory and be the abode of the Eternal Savior.

I will start by stating that symbols are eternal. They are the language of the divine.
Symbols are powerful REMEMBERING and thought control tools. This is why Temples and prophecy are full of symbols. Even the child or the unlearned will still understand great wisdom in symbol
