Eat your vitamin pills and get your rest because it's going to be exciting!

Said the Prophet...

“If you think the Church has been fully restored, you're just seeing the beginning. There is much more to come. … Wait till next year. And then the next year. Eat your vitamin pills. Get your rest. It's going to be exciting.”
Said the Prophets Wife Wendy...
“He's not afraid to do something different,” said the prophet’s wife. “If we're really preparing the Church and the world for the Second Coming of the Savior, he is sincere about that. He doesn't want us spending money, time, energy on anything that isn't really focused on that. It's pretty stunning.”

This quote from Wendy sums up EXACTLY why there's no such thing as a prophet of God:
"“I have seen him changing in the last ten months,” said Sister Nelson. “It is as though he's been unleashed. He's free to finally do what he came to earth to do. … And also, he's free to follow through with things he's been concerned about but could never do. Now that he's president of [the Church], he can do those things.” "

She literally says point blank here that RMN is doing the things he always wanted to do but never had the power to do. How could it be more clear that he's not receiving the words of God but simply executing his own confirmation bias with policy now?

There are two ways this can go: forward or backward.

Any bets?

I seriously thought this was a joke until I clicked the link. What a bunch of nutjobs.

That struck me as a very real and correct statement too.

How about both?

If the recent changes are a restoration from the primitive church that would mean:

Home teachers were called ministers in the early church.
There was a two hour block back in Christ's time.

Some of the changes actually are more like the primitive church:

They didn't use the name Mormon or LDS back in Christ's time.
They didn't have pageants back in Christ's time.
The early church didn't use the BSA as their Young Men's program.

Wow, so underwhelming.
President Nelson continued, “Now, we have millions in this South American continent. And it's not just numbers; it's strength, it's power, it's faith. It's almost palpable.”
Almost palpable? Ridiculous and silly would be a better words there.

Why the hell is he touting the big growth thing again? Did he not hear Cook change the narrative on that one?

I wonder if an earlier version of this talk accidentally said, "Be sure to drink your Ovaltine!"

Seriously, the only way this is going to be exciting is if Priesthood holders start manifesting Jedi powers.

Well, I have it on extremely good background that Mark Hoffman supplied the Church with the missing 116 pages which are being redacted as we converse. Why redacted you ask? The term "Trump of the Lord" appears several times and the 15 feel that it's too political.

I'm getting the impression that Pres. Nelson was not a fan of Hinkley and Monson and that he is merely dancing on their graves.

Yep^^^ And he's paving the way for the complete clusterf&#k train wreck that awaits us when Oaks takes over.

Reminds me of another president who is undoing everything his predecessor did just out of spite. Doesn’t make me respect him any.

Eat your vitamin pills and take a nap. Be sure to hit up the early bird specials. If the second coming happens after 5:00PM you can go out on a full stomach. Be sure you're wearing clean underwear. You look so much better with long hair. How can you read with the light so dim? Let me turn on a light for you. Put your teeth in and get ready for this wild ride.

Who exactly was it who was leashing him? Tommy? Gordon?

Hinkley publicly slapped him down on the name of the church thing.
