“This shall be a land of liberty unto the Gentiles: and there shall be no kings upon the land, who shall raise up unto the Gentiles…For they who are not for me are against me, saith God…And he that fighteth against Zion shall perish, saith God; for he that raiseth up a king against me shall perish. For I the Lord, the King of Heaven, will be their king…Wherefore, I will consecrate this land unto thy seed forever, for the land of their inheritance…Wherefore, I will have all men that dwell thereon, that they shall worship me, saith God.” 2N7:18-32.  “…as many of the Gentiles as will repent are the people of the Lord…For the Lord covenanteth with none saveth it be them that repent and believe in his son, who is the Holy One of Israel.” 2N12: 77,78.

The above prophecies, translated into English in 1828-29 are astoundingly accurate. Nephi understood in 550 BC, that this land we call North America was chosen by God to be a land of liberty, forseeing that this land will be overrun by Gentiles, but that the Gentiles will become their protectors in their future and that the Gentiles would have a government of the people and not of a king or totalitarian, and prophesying that our righteous inhabitants of today will not fall to a king or totalitarian. Then, it is clearly stated that the Lord will be our king! This remarkable prediction can be a reassurance for us, with America so irreversibly enmeshed in rapidly progressing totalitarianism that outside of God’s intervention, there can be no reversing it. However, how much terror and suffering will there be on this land before God destroys the wicked and a people dedicated to righteousness and harmony prevail? Remarkably, many other scriptures corroborate in the message and instructions on HOW to live in harmony and how to live independent of the forces destroying freedom and the pursuit of happiness until those that fight against Zion are destroyed by God. Also, remarkably, this, the establishment of Zion, is the mission of the church restored in these latter days, and our privilege and duty as people who have dedicated ourselves to Christ. There is a nice topical concordance easily identifying this topic and many other easily accessible topics relating to last days in the Zionworks Preparedness Guide.
