Mormon Articles of Faith – America to be Kingdom of God

The Mormon Angel, Moroni, heralds the Kingdom of God
Below is a link to the articles of faith of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, popularly known as the Mormon church. In Article 10 is it stated that the Kingdom (New Jerusalem) will be built on the American continent. The exact location will be in Jackson County, Missouri.

The Mormon’s basic concept of the “Kingdom” has not changed since Brigham Young created a theocratic political dictatorship in the Utah Territories in the 1840’s. It is a political, as well as ecclesiastical Kingdom and not just a spiritual concept.

The Mormons were forced by the US government to change their government and practices when they became a state, but their religious concept of the kingdom has not changed. Only minor, temporary changes in how it is implemented have been made to accommodate statehood.

Mitt Romney is a high priest of the Melchizedek Order, which was created by the Mormon Founder, Joseph Smith, with a specific purpose of bringing about the Kingdom of God on Earth, a physical kingdom.

Romney swore an oath when he became a Melchizedek priest to do everything he can to build the Mormon political Kingdom of God, which is not compatible with the presidential oath of office. He tithes 10% (millions of dollars) every year to the Mormon church, but parks his money in off-shore banking tax havens to avoid paying federal income taxes. Which oath do you suppose he will keep?

In my opinion, this makes Mitt Romney unfit to serve as president. However, it is a topic that should be openly discussed and fully explained to the voters. Democracy is not possible, when the public is not informed.

The Articles of Faith of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints

1. We believe in God, the Eternal Father, and in His Son, Jesus Christ, and in the Holy Ghost.

2. We believe that men will be punished for their own sins, and not for Adam’s transgression.

3. We believe that through the Atonement of Christ, all mankind may be saved, by obedience to the laws and ordinances of the Gospel.

4. We believe that the first principles and ordinances of the Gospel are: first, Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ; second, Repentance; third, Baptism by immersion for the remission of sins; fourth, Laying on of hands for the gift of the Holy Ghost.

5. We believe that a man must be called of God, by prophecy, and by the laying on of hands by those who are in authority, to preach the Gospel and administer in the ordinances thereof.

6. We believe in the same organization that existed in the Primitive Church, namely, apostles, prophets, pastors, teachers, evangelists, and so forth.

7. We believe in the gift of tongues, prophecy, revelation, visions, healing, interpretation of tongues, and so forth.

8. We believe the Bible to be the word of God as far as it is translated correctly; we also believe the Book of Mormon to be the word of God.

9. We believe all that God has revealed, all that He does now reveal, and we believe that He will yet reveal many great and important things pertaining to the Kingdom of God.

10. We believe in the literal gathering of Israel and in the restoration of the Ten Tribes; that Zion (the New Jerusalem) will be built upon the American continent; that Christ will reign personally upon the earth; and, that the earth will be renewed and receive its paradisaical glory.

11. We claim the privilege of worshiping Almighty God according to the dictates of our own conscience, and allow all men the same privilege, let them worship how, where, or what they may.

12. We believe in being subject to kings, presidents, rulers, and magistrates, in obeying, honoring, and sustaining the law.

13. We believe in being honest, true, chaste, benevolent, virtuous, and in doing good to all men; indeed, we may say that we follow the admonition of Paul—We believe all things, we hope all things, we have endured many things, and hope to be able to endure all things. If there is anything virtuous, lovely, or of good report or praiseworthy, we seek after these things.

Make Obama and Romney really Duke it Out

We have a miserable choice between Obama and Romney. There are things about both of them that their parties want to keep hidden. The way to get them to fight harder is to withhold support, until the end. The Republicans never vetted and challenged Obama like they should have on his eligibility or what Black Liberation Theology is really about; that is black supremacy and the divine destruction of white society, America and the Christian church. Black Liberation Theology teaches that blacks will rule after the destruction of white society, that is implement a black theocracy. Neither the politicians not the media want to go there.

On the other hand, Romney is a high priest in the Mormon Melchizedek Order of the Mormon church. This is a religious group that has implemented a political theocratic dictatorship in the past in the Mormon territory and they have no regrets about that. The fundamental mission of the church is to do it again on a global scale, if they get the chance.

Many would also like to see Romney show documentation that his father was a US citizen when Mitt was born. The historic definition of the natural-born citizenship requirement for the president of the Constitution is that your parents must be citizens.

Both major political parties want to polarize the public and demonize the other side so much that they will support one side or the other unconditionally and blindly. The way to make them really compete and talk more about these issues is to not be a rah-rah supporter from the beginning, but to be more critical of both parties and withhold support for any candidate until these issues do get a fair public hearing.

The 1st Amendment prohibits the Government from applying a religious test, but not the voters from being informed and having their own opinions about a candidates religious background and beliefs.

America can survive either of these candidates being elected. What America cannot survive is that the politicians and media are allowed to withhold the truth on important issues like these from public discussion.

Many people think the only issues are such mundane things as taxes and economic growth. Constitutional eligibility is a serious issue that many do not want to talk about, because both parties have candidates or potential candidates that may be ineligible. When a candidate has a religious belief that is fundamentally about the divine destiny of America as Mormonism and Black Liberation Theology both have, that is also a very serious issue that should be discussed. Candidates for the presidency are not princes dueling to become king. All candidates must be answerable to the American people.
