A Prophetic Voice - Gordon B. Hinckley Oct 1998

[dorisfenella]

I would like this will be sutitled in spanish

[1994buttons]

Are you ready!! Is your house in order?? Do we really realize that these are prophets. The stormy weather is here and it will be horrendous. A depression is right around the corner, do you have your year supply?? Are you spiritually prepared?? God help us if we are not!

[raisethelibertytitle]

At the time of this prophecy, our nation's economy was riding a swelling internet bubble. Yet, at the same time the Clinton Admin. was sowing the seeds of destruction w/ the reimplementation of the Community Reinvestment Act of 1977; & the repeal of Glass-Steagall - which gave way to Wall Street (Fed') Bank's derivatives trading. (Trillion $ gambling). Now our nation's wealth is being transferred away through TARP & Keynesian Stimulus - while being replaced by Quantitative Easing. Surely...

[raisethelibertytitle]

A "portent of Stormy Weather" is approaching our socio-economic shores. The Dollar is on the verge of total collapse. &, as the Dollar is (by far) our biggest & most manufactured trade export - for we no longer produce anything in our "service economy" (as Wal-Marts have replaced factories), our economy will likely implode by the close of 2012 (as Pres. Hinckley alluded). For those of us who trust in the Lord & know to "stand in holy places", we will not be "vexed". We will do the vexing! D&C87

@raisethelibertytitle Very profound comments, you certainly appreciate the wisdom and prophetic counsel given here from a Prophet of God. Thanks for the comments, all the best from the UK.

[raisethelibertytitle]

Thank you, my friend. I love the British Isles!

The day of consequences ("famine") from this "portent of stormy weather" seems to be at our door. Nevertheless, the words of Helaman 5:12 will yet apply:

"And now, my sons, remember, remember that it is upon the rock of our Redeemer, who is Christ, the Son of God, that ye must build your foundation; that when the devil shall send forth his mighty winds, yea, his shafts in the whirlwind, yea, when all his hail & his mighty STORM shall beat...

[raisethelibertytitle]

...upon you it shall have no power over you to drag you down to the gulf of misery and endless wo, because of the rock upon which ye are built, which is a sure foundation, a foundation whereon if men build they cannot fail."

I love this talk! Thank you so much for posting it. The world is seeing the validity of a Prophet's words. Moreover, the Book of Mormon - which was written & arranged for these very days - is playing out before us. Lastly, this world will soon see D&C 87 & 45 fulfilled!

[Robert5p3]

@raisethelibertytitle The Book of Mormon says Jesus was born in Jerusalem (Alma 7:10) & the Bible says Jesus was born in Bethlehem (Luke 2:4).

[Ametrida]

@raisethelibertytitle RIP to a MONEY LOVER! hahahahahha

[raisethelibertytitle]

@Ametrida Oh, yeah. A man who lived out the last 40 years of his life in an 800 ft. apartment was all about the money. Of course, that was complimented w/ his ZERO Dollar annual income. (Which would total out being paid ZERO Dollars - for leading a worldwide church - for a 40 yr. period)...

Genius comment!

Well thought out!

[cwood4ever]

@raisethelibertytitle Actually the prophet and the 12 get money while they are in from the Church. They get cars a house and a living allowance. in order to perform their duties. Learn before you speak so blindly.. Its not bad that they do but this is well known.

[endofus]

@raisethelibertytitle

Except that Hinckley lived in a 2400 square foot condo with a 24 hour limo service.

[raisethelibertytitle]

@Ametrida The most impoverished Catholic Nun; and/or the lowest paid Protestant Preacher were paid more financial compensation for a day's work - than Gordon B. Hinckley was paid for a lifetime of service from the LDS Church - who was never paid a penny. (As the Lord Jesus Christ set forth as the standard for true discipleship when He sent His Apostles to preach the Gospel).

Christ also taught that men must be called of Him - rather than being schooled in prominent seminaries and synagogues!

[fungibologna]

and he is right it is happening now, love hinckley

[deepwoodskentuckian]

gordon b hinckley was right. we are seeing this today

[earthenly]

Very wise and caring talk. It is truly nice to hear this gentleman tell all of you that he loves you. I think that this is the first time that I have heard someone from a church say that to his brethren. Thanks for posting !

[Jonksus]

This message came unfortunately too late for me.

[gmillerguy]

This was the first Priesthood session that I attended after getting home from my mission in Brazil. This talk had a profound impact on my outlook on debt. I have never been in debt accept a mortgage as a result. And I make extra payments on my mortgage regularly. I can afford the things I need and save for those that I want and have plenty for the future. Few speeches or talks have affected me the way this one did. I am glad that I heard it 11 years ago and listened.

[johnlds1965]

Glad you liked it, I did too, that's what I waited 7 years to see what he would say Oct 2005 Priesthood Session! It was amazing too. Follow the links to read it too. Wonder what Pres Monson might say Oct 2012 (7 years after!) Do these prophetic counsels come every 7 years!

[rbvmtr]

@johnlds1965 Depends ! he speaks to all the world to heed the council of the lord , he speaks to prepare us against those who seek to inslave and destroy for their own benifit . eventhou a demise of whatever is not immediate or tomarrow as yet Noah was commanded to preach and it took him 120 years to build an Ark the same prophetic princibles still aplies " Man is slow but a sinful man is even slower "

[ilikesuzuki]

@johnlds1965 even though if these so called famine is to happen. how the heck are we going to prepare for this we're going to die in hunger. there is no way people in these days will survive. we are living in hopeless time, how are we going to be save no way. hopeless hopeless. why these days LDS prophets are not prophesying if they so claim to be the true church why is that?

[TrueSaintsLDS]

11 years ago, he said the word depression.

Told us to get our houses in order. Wo unto the procrastination of the idle. It will be hard and dark days ahead if you even survive the end days at all.

the church of Jesus Christ is God's kingdom on the earth, Thomas s. Monson guide by revelation. And the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

[sns112203]

Truly inspired...

[wisteria210]

A good and wise man. I am not LDS but have seen him speak before. The wisdom of this great man cannot be denied. He was a humble, decent follower of the Lord.

[freshflowers4u2]

I LOVE THE MAN!!! Thank you Pres. Gordon B. Hinkley. God be with you, till we meet again...I LOVE YOU ALL...

[Donna4TheOsmonds]

I Miss President Hinkley, He Was Truly A Great Prophet Of God, And A Wonderful Man. I Wish That I Could Have Met Him Face To Face....

Thanks Again John,

Donna

[fluffythecat2]

its so nice to hear him again

interesting that today the Church announced a hiring freeze

thats great

[sdcf001]

Thanx SO much for posting! This was a great talk!

[sns112203]

John Philos, your not fooling anyone buddy. If your going to pose as lds like so many other anti-mormons, at least get the beliefs right....And minisight2000 this talk was made 10 years ago. The church has been screaming "save your money, and get your house in order" for the last 30 years!!!! You're clearly not listening.....

[johnPhilos]

We will miss him. I'm sure Joseph Smith will let Him into heaven where he is now save on Kolob with Heavenly father and our heavenly mothers.

[minisight2000]

this is the only thing i get mad at..listen! were in really really bad shape right now i dont see monson saying save your money get food starge nothing about the new world order no the only thing they say and ask...give money for tithing..are you serious? what cant they tell us whats really going on right now? and how are goverment are satan worshippers!

[AgentJDM]

I can see where you are coming from. But there is a need for temporal preparation but also spiritual preparation. And the spiritual is just as important if not more important.

But I might add that Jesus spoke in parables so that only the spiritually discerning could get the real message. I'm certain the today's prophetic voices speak in the same way.

[Bureyeanne]

Ezra Taft Benson did and so did David O. Mckay.

[minisight2000]

i know i said that 7 months ago i now better now...:)

[TheHistoriCam]

@minisight2000 My parents always said that when the Lord's servants STOP telling you to do something, the time for warning has passed. They have been saying these things for years, and now they have stopped. That's enough of a warning for me.

[omiolo1]

I have been wanting to hear this talk for the last month.

Thanks for posting.
