1 | True believer | Rom 10:9 | gbt1997oct | 95588 | ||
Moreover, thou son of man, take thee one stick, and write upon it, For Judah, and for the children of Israel his companions: then take another stick, and write upon it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and [for] all the house of Israel his companions: And join them one to another into one stick; and they shall become one in thine hand. And when the children of thy people shall speak unto thee, saying, Wilt thou not shew us what thou [meanest] by these? Say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which [is] in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his fellows, and will put them with him, [even] with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they shall be one in mine hand. And the sticks whereon thou writest shall be in thine hand before their eyes." This is a reference to the Book of Mormon and the Bible being companion books, complimenting each other. This is under the Joseph Smith reference because the two go hand in hand. The Book of Mormon is a true volume of scripture, prophesied in the Bible, and brought forth by God. Therefore, Joseph Smith is a Prophet of God. |

7 | revealing His secret to His servants | Amos 3:7 | gbt1997oct | 95560 | ||
surely the Lord God will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets." How many churches even claim to be led by prophets with new revelation – or do they all claim that God has done nothing since Bible times? One view is that the word translated as "secret" should be translated "council", and this verse indicates that true prophets are shown a vision of the grand council in heaven where they were fore-ordained to their role. If that is the correct translation, then this is a particularly good indication that Joseph Smith (prophet of the "Mormon" church) was the genuine article, as he had just such visions and revelation. |

8 | turn the hearts of the children | Mal 4:5 | gbt1997oct | 95559 | ||
Elijah would return and turn the hearts of the children to the fathers and the fathers to the children. Some people think this was fulfilled by John the Baptist (see Matthew 17:10-13), since the names Elias and Elijah are sometimes interchangeable. But Matthew 17 cannot refer to Malachi 4, because: Matthew 17 refers to a prophecy that Elias who would restore all things, Malachi does not. Malachi refers to an Elijah who would link parents and children. Matthew does not. John himself (John 1:21) said he was not Elias. So presumably there was more at least two Eliases – one referred to in Matthew and one in John, which had not yet returned. The fulfillment of the prophecy in Malachi 4:5-6 occurred when Elijah appeared to Joseph Smith and Oliver Cowdery in 1836, and sure enough world-wide interest in keeping records of births and deaths and in tracing genealogy mushroomed from that period. |

9 | Its branches run over a wall | Gen 49:22 | gbt1997oct | 95558 | ||
Read Genesis 49 and Deuteronomy 33. This is where great blessings were promised to the twelve tribes of Israel. Count the blessings. Or just count the words used! Whichever way you look at it, Joseph had the biggest inheritance. Genesis 49:22 "Joseph is a fruitful bough, even a fruitful bough by a well; who's branches run over the wall ..." Genesis 49:26 "The blessings of thy father have prevailed above the blessings of my progenitors unto the utmost bound of the everlasting hills: they shall be one." Where are these promises fulfilled? They are not fulfilled in Bible lands. They couldn't be! Joseph's inheritance was to be bigger than all the other tribes combined. The promises were fulfilled by branches of his family that travelled "over the wall of the well", across the seas to the land of the everlasting hills. The Book of Mormon records the fulfilment of these promises. Deuteronomy 33:17 "His glory is like the firstling of his bullock, and his horns are like the horns of unicorns: with them he shall push the people together to the ends of the earth: and they are the ten thousands of Ephraim, and they are the thousands of Manasseh." These are not promises that can be forgotten or ignored. They were not fulfilled in Bible times. They are being fulfilled now as the Book of Mormon, the record of Ephraim, is bringing millions of people to Christ. The Book of Mormon - the record of Ephraim - is one of the great signs of the gathering of Israel. Ezekiel 37:16-17 "Moreover, thou son of man, take thee one stick, and write upon it, For Judah, and for the children of Israel his companions: then take another stick, and write upon it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and for all the house of Israel his companions: And join them one to another into one stick; and they shall become one in thine hand." |

10 | "other" gospel taught by the establishe | Gal 1:6 | gbt1997oct | 95557 | ||
Galatians chapter 1 – "another gospel." Modern day critics sometimes quote one part of this chapter – "though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed." But they never quote the rest of the chapter. Why? Read the whole chapter and you will see why. Then read it again. Paul is contrasting the gospel of man made churches with the gospel of Christ. The true and original gospel begins with new and life-changing revelation – a literal vision of Jesus Christ. The "other" gospel is the one taught by the established churches, based on centuries of studying the dead prophets. |
