"How Oft We're Warned"

Hi All – below are several verses of Scripture – review them carefully and make the comparisons to our day. Then think carefully as what you’re reading was written over 2,000 years ago by a Prophet of God.

“How Oft We’re Warned”

cji

2/2/18

Awakening into the terror

seeing laws broken daily

criminals of high standings

congress, senators, FBI

justice department, CIA

hate filled the media

dividing asunder a nation

our nation the USA

how oft we’re warned

all about us this terror

still going to the mall

lining up to pay again

lining the pockets of evil

rhetorical lying daily

we’ve been warned today!

3 Nephi 6:23 Now there were many of those who testified of the things pertaining to Christ who testified boldly, who were taken and put to death secretly by the judges, that the knowledge of their death came not unto the governor of the land until after their death.

24 Now behold, this was contrary to the laws of the land, that any man should be put to death except they had power from the governor of the land—

25 Therefore a complaint came up unto the land of Zarahemla (You could put the United States of America), to the governor of the land, against these judges who had condemned the prophets of the Lord unto death, not according to the law.

26 Now it came to pass that they were taken and brought up before the judge, to be judged of the crime which they had done, according to the law which had been given by the people.

27 Now it came to pass that those judges had many friends and kindreds; and the remainder, yea, even almost all the lawyers and the high priests, did gather themselves together, and unite with the kindreds of those judges who were to be tried according to the law.

28 And they did enter into a covenant one with another, yea, even into that covenant which was given by them of old, which covenant was given and administered by the devil, to combine against all righteousness.

29 Therefore they did combine against the people of the Lord, and enter into a covenant to destroy them, and to deliver those who were guilty of murder from the grasp of justice, which was about to be administered according to the law.

30 And they did set at defiance the law and the rights of their country; and they did covenant one with another to destroy the governor, and to establish a king over the land, that the land should no more be at liberty but should be subject unto kings.
