Comments on: Christopher Columbus is an LDS High Priest http://www.latterdayconservative.com/blog/christopher-columbus-lds-high-priest/ LDS Prophets, America, Freedom, Liberty, Constitution, Mormon Politics Mon, 07 May 2012 00:55:24 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: AwakeAndAriseOrg http://www.latterdayconservative.com/blog/christopher-columbus-lds-high-priest/#comment-139 AwakeAndAriseOrg Sat, 26 Dec 2009 20:54:18 +0000 http://www.latterdayconservative.com/?p=1355#comment-139 Reading this nearly brings tears to my eyes. I know Moroni has power and authority from the throne of God, and it brings me to tears almost to consider his overseeing what is taking place on this land, of his helping Columbus leave the "captivity" of Europe, as the prophet Nephi foresaw, to move out with courage upon the waters. That same Moroni, now works to bring forth great works, and his statue symbolically atops now over a hundred holy temples dedicated to the Most High God, for Moroni is His angel who has brought back the restored gospel, and it is Moroni who gave us those vital last messages as he closed the record (Book of Mormon) written to us, for our day, warning of a secret combination seeking to overthrow the freedom of all nations, lands, and countries, and which now has it's "evil influence and control" over America and the entire world, as Ezra Taft Benson testified in 1988 just after a very pivotal gadianton robber and murderer was elected President of the United States.

Not because Hyde became apostate, but because he describes Moroni as having been with Columbus on the "stormy deep" and calming "troubled elements". In the accounts of Columbus's founding of the Americas, I have read that the seas were actually quite calm. I'm still searching to find something to verify the rumor that Columbus had any angelic visions or visitations. Columbus always writes that it's the Holy Ghost that inspired him and directed him. He does say the "hand" of God and he did produce a drawing with Angels in it but I don't recall him saying anything. But regardless, he WAS specifically referred to by Nephi. He was destined to be the one to usher in the restoration and this last dispensation. But if anyone has any info on Columbus and Angels please send them to me.

And it shall come to pass that their cry shall go, even according to the simpleness of their words.
