Today's Favorite Verse: Doctrine & Covenants 112:25-26
"And upon my house shall it begin, and from my house shall it go forth, saith the Lord;
First among those among you, saith the Lord, who have professed to know my name and have not known me, and have blasphemed against me in the midst of my house, saith the Lord."

The Lord will clean His House first. He will both purify his saints, and sift them with judgment. I do not want to be on the wrong side of things. If the sifting among the saints has not already started, then it is soon coming. From His House to the world we will see a dividing of those that truly love and know the Lord.

"For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?"
(1 Peter 4:17)

It makes me sad to think of those that lose their grasp on the iron rod. That give into and join the mocking from the great and spacious building and lose their way. What is to be done? Follow the prophet. Read and really ponder the scriptures, and not books or podcasts about them. Invest time and effort to truly know them to know the Lord. Go to the House of the Lord with clean hands and a pure heart. Pray and repent daily, check in with the Lord to know where you stand There are red flags that should go up when any wolf in sheep's clothing tries to enlist you to their side. I exercise caution and am very careful of who I listen to or follow on social media. It has been the saddest thing to watch members that were once strong become deceived and fall away. It has taught me to be ever watchful and ever learning.
