Doctrine and Covenants 34 | |
1 MY son Orson, hearken and hear and behold what I, the Lord God, shall say unto you, even Jesus Christ your Redeemer; | |
2 The light and the life of the world, a light which shineth in darkness and the darkness comprehendeth it not; | |
3 Who so loved the world that he gave his own life, that as many as would believe might become the sons of God. Wherefore you are my son; | |
4 And blessed are you because you have believed; | |
5 And more blessed are you because you are called of me to preach my gospel-- | |
6 To lift up your voice as with the sound of a trump, both long and loud, and cry repentance unto a crooked and perverse generation, preparing the way of the Lord for his second coming. | |
7 For behold, verily, verily, I say unto you, the time is soon at hand that I shall come in a cloud with power and great glory. | |
8 And it shall be a great day at the time of my coming, for all nations shall tremble. | |
9 But before that great day shall come, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon be turned into blood; and the stars shall refuse their shining, and some shall fall, and great destructions await the wicked. | |
10 Wherefore, lift up your voice and spare not, for the Lord God hath spoken; therefore prophesy, and it shall be given by the power of the Holy Ghost. | |
11 And if you are faithful, behold, I am with you until I come-- | |
12 And verily, verily, I say unto you, I come quickly. I am your Lord and your Redeemer. Even so. Amen. | |
