ZIONWORKS NEWS for MAY 23rd, 2025
GLIMPSES OF ETERNITY. HIS WISDOM’S VAST, IT KNOWS NO BOUND…
The universe is so vast that it will never all be discovered. Its contents include all science, life, physics and all mysteries of the human mind, all matters concerning time/space, matter, anti-matter, all forces that are not understood and those as yet undiscovered. Eternity contains all of that, integrated with the mind and will of Creator God, integrated with the capacity, mind, soul, purpose and destiny of people. The pure gospel of Jesus Christ originates in eternity and consists of pure truth, unadulterated by man or adversary. It originates in truth and eternity and leads people from eternity to this life, and without confusion or deception, again to eternity. In and on this earthly realm, though, this time of probation, there is an abundance of foolery, heart-break, non-truth, hate, slander, deception, violence, murder and war because the prince of darkness has access to this realm and because all people here are granted free choice as to whose voice they will hear. We have the choice to love and nurture or to do damage. We have the capacity and stewardship to reason righteously or to abandon reason and call the abandonment “free thinking”. Having been granted mental and spiritual access to eternity and then choosing to abandon it doesn’t seem very smart, but we do it. There is a WAY to get back on the path and to help each other in the process.
Along this path, this treacherous and troubled proving ground from eternity to eternity, it is not all that unusual to have authentic glimpses of or experiences with eternity. It is well to remember that a glimpse of eternity, regardless of how huge, is comparatively tiny, and likely from a different perspective than another person’s. So if these glimpses or experiences are to be compared or judged for validity or authenticity, or to be collected and assembled into a wholistic reference, our Creator can be the only judge and advisor. We must each stay intimately close to Him so we can discern his voice and will, “living and acting honestly and honorably before God and in the sight of all men, using the things of this world in the manner designed of God, that the places where they occupy may shine as Zion, the redeemed of the Lord.” D&C 128:8c
In our endeavor to “live and act…as Zion”, we have had many reminders and reinforcements over the years and have believed in many hopes and promises yet to be fulfilled. Because Christ’s promises are true, many people persevere in Christ’s love, determined to live “on earth as it is in Heaven” and “out of Babylon”. This gets more difficult as years pass, but Christ’s word does not fade away and our dedication must stay fresh and strong. Now…can it be true that long-prophesied events concerning righteousness sweeping the earth, the Lamanite blossoming like a rose, and the Nephite record being embraced by its original chroniclers are at this time happening?! Here is evidence that will require your serious prayers and discernment. In this first video, I believe David Taylor/Chief Midegah when referring to the Church of Jesus Christ, is Referring to the “Bickertonite” church, which recently has partnered with the Restorationists, combining us in our quest to worship Christ under pure gospel.
This second video is titled “The Gathering Promise: Isaiah’s Prophetic Vision in 1 Nephi 21.
This third video is Howard Storm’s testimony, “What is Heaven Like”, a lovely, gentle yet powerful testimony which reinforces the gospel. Howard had a powerful near death experience in 1985 which converted him from atheism. In the last four months, he has lost his eyesight from nerve damage. Please pray for him.
