There are other things that he will also "know" and prepare for in defending this people....Revelations 8,9 & 16 let him know what he can and cannot (or should not) try to prevent.

Since November of 2005, I have been doing some studying on this very subject because of a “dream that wasn’t a dream” that I had that month. That’s the only way I have to explain what happened. In that experience, I saw a place that I have never been to before and was shown it in great exacting detail. When I was ‘told’ where this place was, I told my guide that there was absolutely no way that place could exist there. I have since found out that it does….exactly as I was shown. There have been several other such instances helping me to ‘understand’ and I have struggled to comprehend what it all meant as I have been taught line-upon-line. I am writing it up and will be looking for a publisher soon…however, not sure anyone will touch this so I may have to publish it myself. At any rate, I will tell you what I understand about this as it relates to my situation. (Although, I believe that the “Watchtower” has several meanings.) What I saw was so horrible that at first, I was somewhat angry at being brought to view this destruction. When I ‘left’ where I was and returned to my room, I immediately fell to my knees and begged to be told what it was that I had seen. The ‘mountain burning with fire’ verse came to my mind and I grabbed my scriptures to look it up (Revelations 8:8-10 and 16:3/Sister chapters…the same angels with slightly different perspectives. Wrath of God for the wicked…trumpets to hail his imminent arrival for the righteous.). I cannot say ‘why’ I was shown this…only know that it IS part of my most sacred stewardship to know it although it took me several years of struggling with the spirit to find even this out for myself. The watchtower—as I know it—relates not only to this second angel but also to the quote from Joseph Smith that you shared and Joel 2:28-32 and Acts 2:16-21 (The Lord really wanted to make sure we got this one so He included it twice in the scriptures. ) Have you never stopped to think…why the revelations and visions of saints would be related to the ‘physical salvation’ of the people of Zion? They’re included together in both of these citations. When God wants something done….He inspires a mother/father/grandfather and they prepare a son….or sons to fight the battle that is to come. The second ‘angel’ was not meant to go down in the sea by the wicked men who sent it. (Or will send it…I can only think of it in the past tense since I have already seen it happen.) Its destination was changed (or will be) by these warriors who have been prepared for its coming. It must go down in the sea because it is Satan’s last ditch attempt to destroy the Kingdom of God upon the earth. These warriors will see its approach by the “Watchtower” which will be built for this purpose on the western coast of the U.S. I have often wondered why the U.S. and Israel’s other allies were not there to defend her when Israel is surrounded by the hosts at Armageddon. Now I know…we will fighting for our own existence…for our very lives against the forces that have converged against both our nations and any who would defend us. Anyone who does not want to fall to those forces must come to our aid because alone they will fall…and the Kings & Queens of the earth will know that. If we fall, so do they. The reason that the nations shall lean upon the staff of this people is because a latter-day Captain Moroni and his stripling warriors shall be raised up to lead the fight in this battle. As he did, this man will ‘know’ through his gifts of the spirit where to face his enemies even before his enemies themselves know that they are going. His preparations will seem unnecessary to many (‘what need hath my Lord of this tower’) but his efforts shall be inspired and lead by the gifts of God and the priesthood which he holds. For any that may doubt this, examine closely Revelation 8:10-11 & 16:4-6. Consider them as I ask you, “in what place do we know that a prophet of God, his fellow apostles (themselves prophets) and the saints of God were viciously and violently murdered in recent history?” When I visited Nauvoo and stayed with some members there, I found that their drinking water came from the Mississippi River. If an enemy with limited resources wanted to destroy our nation, they would strike something that they know to be the most valuable…especially in the Middle East…the sources of water. For our country that would be mainly the Great Lakes (fountains of waters) and the Mountain West. Consider a strike on the Great Lakes to contaminate them with the weapons that exist today. The survivors ‘burning’ with pain (and no hospitals left) would go to the rivers to ease their wounds and die. “True and righteous ARE thy judgments.” Now perhaps you have some small sense of why I was angry at being shown what I was shown. It makes me weep to think of it still. Thank you for that quote from Joseph Smith.

He is the only candidate i can reconcile my religious faith with. I am apologetic that my views may seem one sided but they are unwavering I feel that i must be vigilant that we must be vigilant. on Friday the President who is a good man, with bad misinformed ideas, with the support of the legislative, passed with only 7 descenting votes, eliminated by the use of vague terms every part of the bill of rights, the bill is in essence the american version of the Reichstag Fire Decree. "If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be." -Thomas Jefferson How did we elect senators congress men and presidents who trample under their feet the very sovereignty of the American People? In the name of protection and defending the very freedoms they have now striped from us?

Oathkeepers have been embarrassed and promise to never air such again without audio and video files to support them. The LDS Newsroom has offically said there was no raid. I can't for a moment even think the gov't stupid enough to attempt such at this time and give any sympathy to Romney. So I say let sleeping dogs keep quite and stop talking about it. We will and have, much to work on without time spent on gossip. Let's work now to contact our Congress and let them know we don't like National Defense Authorization Act, this is real as you state above and we had better get busy opposing it, while we can.
