Monday, October 4, 20049:10 a.m. Calling ladies at Isaac's

You have to hurry or my phone connection goesaway, are you there? Where is Bonnie?Hello, ladies, how many ofyou are there? 8 andthen daughter Shirley is 9? I am sure anxious foryou to be with me. Heavenly Father is your ticket,get close to Him, be loyal and fervent. Zion is acondition of living in the increase of the Spirit ofGod through a devotion ofloyalty and living in theburning peace ofthe heavenly fire. Priesthood andthe Spirit of God can reach you from a distance.Just like your prayers to Heavenly Father rise toheaven instantly and the answer returns instantly,wherever Heavenly Father is He can hear you and

He can hear my prayers for you wherever we are.So exert great faith and you will feel the burningpeace.It is a great and terrible sin, this sin calledselfishness, that great fallen nature that distracts usfrom our progress. Why is selfishness such aterrible thing? It is because selfishness is the lesserlight. You are still alive when you are selfish butyou are not enlightened ofheaven. You are offeredthe heavenly gift, the heavenly fire, the Spirit ofGod, you are offered to become like God and dwellwith Him forever. We left our eternal home inheaven to come to this earth for a test that only lastsa few years, then we die, and yet our spirits will bealive, we will be resurrected as we are laid down inthe grave and then we will be judged. This lifeseems like everything, but it is only a few momentsin eternity to our spirits. Selfishness is to throwaway the eternal vision and live just for the presentmoment to please yourself. When we are sons ordaughters of God sent by Heavenly Father to do

His will. We are born selfish but He gave usenough ofHis spirit to overcome this selfishness.The reason you are not with me yet is because thereis some element of selfishness within you that youneed to reach unto Heavenly Father for His spirit toroot it out. Get rid of that selfishness. Aselfishness is as easy as not reaching for theheavenly light. Now I am praying for you,yearning for you, you are still connected toPriesthood, get busy. We live our lives in thepresent moment, reaching for the heavenly gift.

That is the life of a saint, reaching to become likeGod. Every moment is a moment unto God. Ibelongs to Him, we belong to Him, exert ourselveto reach for His heavenly gifts and receiving theSpirit ofGod then stopping the reach, that is whenwe tum to our selfishness. We reach to receive togive, we reach to receive the heavenly spirit andpowers to return it back increased to our HeavenlFather through Priesthood. You need to staydevoted to the Priesthood over you. Now ladiesthe day of rial is upon us, the Lord showed me thamy family and my father's family would be testedfirst, I would be tested first, through a scattering omy family. Where we were always togetherconstantly trained, now the Lord is testing us to seewhat we love most. And ifwe love our selfish selwe will go down with the wicked. But if we wilturn to our Heavenly Father in these last fewmoments of preparation and learn how to bconstantly devoted to Him, reach unto Him andenjoy the heavenly spirit, the love of God alwayexercised. His spirit will quickly change us and wwill become like God. Why do you let yourselvebe bothered by the evil whisperings? You need tstop it, you just need to reach for the heavenlywhisperings. I want you to know it is the littldoubts holding you back, and doubt is a hesitatiotoward the good where you don't reach for thgood. It is you listening to the whisperings of evispirits. Hesitation is deadly, says Father, that'what doubt is, the thought you hold onto thadrives away the heavenly peace. Come alive in thSpirit ofGod be Zion. The Lord has promised thaeveryone wherever they are among the Priesthoopeople are about to go through a great shaking anyou need to have the Spirit of God in place.

I also called to let you know, are you there? ThLord is still cleaning up this people and I havhandled my brother Wallace. I am letting youknow that he doesn't hold Priesthood and also mbrother Brian, his Priesthood is in question againSo if any of these brothers, not appointed by metry to come and help you, do not listen to themThe Lord handles these men who are mastedeceivers where they claim to hold Priesthood anddon't hold Priesthood, He handles these unworthymen so that they will not be able to deceive thfaithful people. That is why I am telling you anyou need to have the discerning of spirits, not jus

join with others in their ways. In the day ofgreatertrial, even persecution and suffering, certain menwill try to approach you ladies, even use my nameand say, Warren would want us to do this and youneed the Spirit of God as your protection. Adeceiver will look good on the outside, even claimto uphold me at first and then leave a little doubt anaccusation or complaint against the Priesthood.Against me to get you to tum to him and I say toyou ladies, you be loyal to God and Priesthood, nomatter what the Lord allows us to go through. Thisworld has to be destroyed and the Lord will protectthe faithful. Now you be faithful, you who aretroubled with the whisperings of evil spiritscontinually, it is because you are choosing to listento them, and you are doing things, even temptedwith immoral thoughts and feelings that invitethose whisperings to be around you, it is becauseyou are not being fervent enough in the good thatthe evil can still reach you.

No time listedMonday, October 4, 2004Calling ladies at LeRoy's

Hello ladies, are you gathered where I can talkto you? Put me on speaker phone in a closed doorroom.How many of you are there? 7? Is Roy boy

minding? He asked me about Winston, I told himto be separate unless parents are guiding.Hello, ladies, did you want to hear from me or

did you not? I love you today more than ever and Ilook upon you what you can become. I seek thereality of revelation of what you are to know howto help you to overcome your fallen nature, but Ilook upon you what you can become. Ladies, theday of greater trial is soon upon us, you need to befilled with the Spirit of God to be protected andyou need to be with me. I am calling to let youknow I have handled another man, my brother,Wallace Jeffs, does not hold Priesthood and alsomy brother, Brian Jeffs, his Priesthood is inquestion. The Lord handles men who claim tohold Priesthood but don't hold Priesthood toprotect the innocent, so you won't join with thosewho are against God. Leave these men in theLord's hands and be inspired so you don't joinwith anyone who is against me. He is being sentaway from UEP land, you should not tum to himfor any guidance in a day ofneed. So in the Lord'smercy He calls men to repentance and delivers theinnocent from being deceived. A man who claimsto hold Priesthood and doesn't hold Priesthood is amaster deceiver, he has deceived himself, hisfamily and others. Thank the Lord for revelationand Priesthood to guide us, other people's wrongsdo not save us, we need to qualify throughrighteous living. But it is a deliverance, lest youjoin with those who are against me. Thus far he is

humbling himself and we'll leave it in the Lord'shands.

The Lord has shown me that some of the halfhearted will approach my ladies in a day ofgreatertrial, a great severity, to comfort my ladies andthen in a deceptive manner accuse me ofnot lovingyou and that they will help you. At that time it willbe a day of great trial upon you, when peopleapproach you that way. This is the Lord's test weare going through, to complain means you areaccusing God, complaining against God. I loveyou and I want you with me, you are close if youhave the Spirit of God increasing in you. I revealthese things to you as a protection, me not beingthere, physically, able to tell you these things, Imust do it by phone. There will be a people comeforth from among this Priesthood people that willredeem Zion, which is the presence ofGod amongus. Are you Zion? Are you inviting to theheavenly spirit and the heavenly powers, theheavenly beings and do the angels come near youthere? Remember personal revelation is alwaysdirectable by the Priesthood over you. Youbecome a revelator to yourself, feel?? You can doall things independent of your Priesthood head,you are in a dangerous position. So be one, reachfor the strength of heaven to return that strengththrough obedience and be close to me. I love youand want you with me.Beware the enthusiasm of sympathy. Some ofyou have had sympathy against authority throughthe years, where you say, I just don't see why thisand that. Circumstances that are in the Prophet'shands, the Lord's hands, be careful, the Lordknows what He is doing, He knows best. It is purefoolism to be a fool, pure stupidity that we in ourignorance judge God and Priesthood, when Godsees all things and He know what is right. Let usbelieve in God and trust His judgement. Youbeing there is a test, you do not want it to turn to ajudgement where you cannot be part of me, youneed to be with me, you need to be Zion, living inthe lively increase of heavenly gifts. Stop living inpride of a memorized way of life where you arejust living by how you have done things in the past.Turn to the Lord, feel His whisperings. You feelthe attributes ofGod, you feel His whisperings, theburning Heavenly peace ofHeavenly joy and love.I pray the Lord to bless you, Priesthood and the

Spirit of God do not know time or distance. Evefrom a distance you can be close and my prayercan reach Heavenly Father and your prayers reacHim and that oneness in Him, our Heavenly Fathecauses the Spirit ofGod to flow to you. How I amyearning for you, more than you can understand.Oh Lord my God, bless the ladies in ShorCreek to qualify quickly.I want you to overcome your gossiping, youtale bearing, just naming what you have heard. want you to have conversations when you speakthat are uplifting, have to do with your duties ancorrect principles. Be more quiet to be morprayerful, not always voicing your opinion, beinbubbly, talkative often drives away the sweewhisperings because you are not listening. All takes is once, just resist the sweet whispering

be led and following the path of he burning peace.Live unto God, do it, this minute and when I amable to talk with you again or even see you, I wantto feel the heavenly fire in you, that you areapproved of God and Priesthood. Your yearningdesires aren't the only thing that qualify you to bewith me, it is the actual having something, havingthe Spirit of God burning brighter in you. Youmust have something to be Zion. Now go earn ittoday, today can be a great step toward yoursuccess in the Lord and you being with me. Thisdoesn't have to take long.

Ok dearies, the family and the Priesthoodpeople everywhere are about to go through a greatshaking. I will be accused ofeverything by the halfhearted, the Lord is through with the half hearted,these are the Lord's tests that are upon us, I amhere to do the will of my father and thus HeavenlyFather, go where they want me to go, teach whothey want me to teach, because there are so manytraitors among our Priesthood people I cannot holdmeetings and give the trainings and even my ownfamily, though not intentional, they have oftenbeen traitors against me. Naming to other peoplewhat I have said or done, so I cannot give theadvanced trainings, they cannot know where I am,as long as you are a talker, a gossiper, you cannotbe with me. I have told Roy Allred to stop thisletter writing to each other in Short Creek and youjust get busy with your personal preparation. Andyearn for everyone else to qualify as fervently asyou yearn for yourself. And yearn for me and thework of God to be prospered and blessed evenmore than for yourself and then you will bereaching and exerting the first two greatcommandments. I trust this test and thisexperience has made you become more ferventunto a fervent yearning. Has it ladies?
