Apocalyptic prophecies? Natural disasters have some people thinking about last days

February 6, 2006 · No Comments

No doubt end-time prophecies are rolling forth. The saints are commanded to know the signs of the times. While many will simply consider these events as par for the course, saints in tune with the Spirit will hear the voice the of Lord within these signs.

President Hinckley:
“What we have experienced in the past was all foretold, and the end is not yet,” President Hinckley said. “Just as there have been calamities in the past, we expect more in the future. What do we do?

“Someone has said it was not raining when Noah built the ark. But he built it, and the rains came.

“The Lord has said, ‘If ye are prepared ye shall not fear’ (D&C 38:30).

“The primary preparation is also set forth in the Doctrine and Covenants, wherein it says,

‘Wherefore, stand ye in holy places, and be not moved, until the day of the Lord come. (D&C 87:8).’ “

The LDS Church believes in modern scripture and revelation, in addition to the Bible. The LDS Church’s Doctrine and Covenants reaffirms the idea of very strong earthquakes in the last days before Christ’s second coming.

Apocalyptic prophecies? Natural disasters have some people thinking about last days: “Tsunamis, hurricanes, earthquakes. In the past year, calamities have struck countries around the world and more disasters will come in the last days, according to the Scriptures.”
