Distress for Salt Lake’s Villains vs. Help for Israel’s Heroines

1. Woe (reversal of fortune; trials and tribulations; problems; difficulties; trouble) to You (Salt Lake)  destroyers (agents charged with disqualifying, defiling, polluting Israel’s first-born heirs) while you who’ve escaped destruction and you men who’ve defrauded (double-crossed; embezzled; cheated; swindled) Israelites, but are never defrauded by them.

Once Israelites repossess (retrieve; retake; regain; recover; recoup)  their own authority, Salt Lake’s men will be the ones who’re destroyed.

This generation of Israel’s people is going to strike (afflict; attack; accuse; beset; fall-uponRelated image) Mormon headquarters in Salt Lake City, as a means to  tell Salt Lake’s   “Talking-Heads” (pundits; experts; sages) to “put a sock in it!”

This generation of Israel’s people is going to beset (plague; cause continual trouble or distress to; assail; beleaguer; accuse) Mormon headquarters in Salt Lake City,  in an effort to move (persuade the minds and opinions of) presiding-Melchizedek-Priesthood-Authorities to upend  (reverse; cease and desist; set aside; overrule; dismantle; do away with; put an end to;  overturn) their covert (undercover; secret) conspiracy (plot; scheme) against you (Israel’s people; rank and file Mormons).

3. At the thunder (cannonade; rumble; sound) of your (Jehovah’s) voice Salt Lake’s leadership flees (runs as fast as it can). When you (Jehovah) rise-up (“walk on the stage”) “The-Nations” (non-Israelites; Gentiles) scatter.

4. Your plunder (stolen-goods) …O’ Gentiles (non-Isaelites; Nations) is/are harvested (acquired; picked; collected; gained; gathered together) by young locust. Young men (missionaries)  are sent by Salt Lake Headquarters, throughout the world like a swarm of  hungry locust. 

* swarm locusts GIFLocust –  are a collection of certain species of short-horned grasshoppers in the family Acrididae that have a swarming phase. These insects are usually solitary, but under certain circumstances they become more abundant and change their behavior and habits, becoming gregarious. Locusts have formed plagues since prehistoric times. The ancient Egyptians carved them on their tombs and the insects are mentioned in the Iliad, the Bible and the Quran. Swarms have devastated crops and been a contributory cause of famines and human migrations. More recently, changes in agricultural practices and better surveillance of locations where swarms tend to originate, have meant that control measures can be used at an early stage. The traditional means of control are based on the use of insecticides from the ground or the air, but other methods using biological control are proving effective. Swarming behaviour decreased in the 20th century, but despite modern surveillance and control methods, the potential for swarms to form is still present, and when suitable climatic conditions occur and vigilance lapses, plagues can still occur. Locusts are large insects and convenient for use in research and the study of zoology in the classroom. They are also edible insects; they have been eaten throughout history and are considered a delicacy in many countries. The word “locust” is derived from the Vulgar Latin locusta, meaning grasshopper.
In the solitary phase, these grasshoppers are innocuous, their numbers are low, and they do not pose a major economic threat to the growth of Israel’s people. However, under suitable conditions of drought followed by rapid vegetation growth, serotonin in their brains triggers a dramatic set of changes: they start to breed abundantly, becoming gregarious and nomadic (loosely described as migratory) when their populations become dense enough. They form bands of wingless nymphs,  which later become swarms of winged adults. Both the bands and the swarms move around and rapidly strip fields and cause damage to crops. The adults are powerful fliers; they can travel great distances, consuming most of the green vegetation wherever the swarm settles.

5. The Lord should be exalted for he dwells “On-High” (in those with whom He feels Perfectly “At-Home”).

He is filling Zion (Jehovah’s Millenial Kingdom)  with Israelite people who appreciate justice and righteousness.   Salt Lake’s Lions (gatherers) are drawing (charming; luring; recruiting; seducing) all of you (Israel’s).

Salt Lake’s “Especial-Witnesses” (prophets and apostles) are “living” jokes (mockeries; travesties; charades; farces) of Israel’s true prophets and apostles.  Not a single one of Salt Lake’s presiding priesthood authorities is worthy of Israel’s respect.

7. Behold, every one of Salt Lake’s young “cutie-pie” ambassadors (missionaries; messengers) is trained (coached; disciplined) and ignorantly (unwittingly) sent out  to “Ring Your Doorbell” (drum-up your support; solicit your involvement) in behalf of (for the benefit of) Salt Lake’s missionary program. They want to totally (completely) supplant (replace; take the place of) Israel’s (Jehovah’s) experienced (seasoned) teachers of Peace and Salvation with Salt Lake’s  easily-fooled (gullible) “little boys”.

Salt Lake’s presiding authorities are proclaiming (promoting; preaching)  Sorcery,  as a means to change-the-course-of  (convert; turn the heads of; impress; influence; capture the attention of) the “Men Of Your Houses”(“heads of your households). They are determined to supplant (supersede; take the place of; exchange)  Jehovah’s Old-Testament promise to Abraham * regarding this (our) generation of Israel’s people.

* Abraham –“One Man Through Whom to Bless the World”– Now,  we arrive at a point in history which will prove to be of such tremendousImage result for Jehovah's covenant with Abraham and his descendants importance as to shape the course of the world both in this age and the age to come.
But, like many of God’s mustard-seed size actions, it is obscure and seemingly insignificant. It is the kind of action scarcely anyone would have thought of who wanted to redeem the world, reclaim creation from the curse of sin, and fill the earth with God’s glory.
God zeroes in on one man, Abram, a worshipper of false gods (Joshua 24:2,3) in the land of Ur, and says, with unbelievably far-reaching implications, “Go from your country (society)and your kindred (extended family) and your father’s ancestral house (dynasty; bloodline; lineage; line of hereditary rulers) the land (society) that I will show you.
And I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you, and make your name great so that you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and him who curses you I will curse, and in you shall all the families of the earth be blessed” (Genesis 12:1-3).  In completely sovereign grace God comes to this undeserving idolater and says, with life-creating authority, “I am going to bless you, and through you bring blessing to the whole world.” And with that begins the history of the people of Israel.
 God first removes Abraham from his father’s house-thereby establishing Himself as Abram’s father. Then he also promises Abram an inheritance. Abram was the firstborn of Terah and therefore would have expected to receive the blessing and birthright of the firstborn. But God calls Abram to be his son, and to look for an inheritance (birthright) from Him. Therefore God also gives him a new name-Abraham, the father of a multitude. And as Paul tells us in Romans 4:13, the promised inheritance was not merely a piece of real estate in the middle east, but consisted of the whole world. The fact that Paul says that Abraham was promised the inheritance of the whole world ought to convince us once and for all that Abraham is indeed a son of God. He is no longer merely the firstborn of Terah, he is now the firstborn son of God. The point here is that Jehovah’s covenant with Abraham extends to include, especially, this latter-day generation of Abraham’s posterity (descendants; Israelites; rank and file Mormons) and, remember……  Jehovah’s covenant with Abraham is not just hereditary….it’s IRREVOCABLE!!

Israelites are intentionally (deliberately; consciously; purposefully) breaching (breakingRelated image; trashing; violating) Salt Lake’s binding contract (agreement; indenture) …….as a gesture (act; sign; declaration; statement; indication) of their utter repudiation and inevitable (certain; unavoidable; inescapable; inexorable) overthrow of Salt Lake’s diabolical (satanic; demoniac; “spooky”; spell-binding) dynasty (line of hereditary rulers).

9. Satan (Man’s-Common-Enemy), is  the eternal-cause (fountainhead; author; creator) of mourning (expressions of deep sorrow for something that has died or beenImage result for dig a pit gif lost).

Mormonism’s  Melchizedek Priesthood Organization weakens  (incapacitates; enfeebles; deteriorates) the people of the Mormon Kingdom.

Behold (observe something remarkable), Salt Lake’s presiding Melchizedek Priesthood officers have dug a “Pit” (recepticle for the dead) among  “The Family Of Man” (the human race; mankind) .  

The “Pit” (recepticle for the dead) is designed to stop (interfere-with; interrupt) the continuation (perpetuation) of Israel’s house (dynasty of hereditary rulers), in their role (capacity; function) as “Sureties” *( persons obligated by covenant to perform a duty for another person who fails to do it) for this (our) generation, so that they’ll never be supplanted (replaced; superseded; overridden; usurped; removed), or  become the withered (dried-up; shriveled; decayed; wasted; corrupt) stewards (managers; administrators; chamberlains; officials charged with the management of the family of  a sovereign, i.e. God) bound to this generation as bondsmen (guaranturepledges; sureties) or an elite (specialized) unit made-up of people from aristocratic (ruling) families. Words Bondsman and Bondman have similar meaning   

* Surety –  bondsman – one who becomes responsible for another, in the sense of security or pledge for a person or group of persons.–
This means that one person or (in the context of Isaiah’s indictment) one group (group #1) may become security for another (group #2), that such a one (group #1)  will do a certain thing at a time in the future.
Judah was “surety” to his father Jacob that Benjamin would safely return from Egypt (Genesis 43:9). He pledged his life that the younger brother would return safely. He tells Joseph (Genesis 44:32)  how he had become surety for Benjamin, and offers to become Joseph’s slave for the sake of his brother. Job says (Job 17:3), “Give now a pledge, be surety for me with thyself; who is there that will strike hands with me?” The “Striking-of-Hands”  refers to the (reaching of an agreement),i.e. an action or gesture by which the surety or pledge was publicly manifested and thus ratified.
Job,  (Job 17:3),  beseeches God to become surety for him, to pledge him that sometime in the future He will cause Job’s innocence to be made known and be acknowledged by God Himself. In Isaiah 38:14) Hezekiah says, “O Lord, I am oppressed, be thou my surety.” He wishes God to give him a pledge of some kind, to go security for him in such a way that he will surely be saved out of his sickness and distress. Jesus is called “the surety” (Greek “egguos”; “under good security” (as an adjective), “guarantee” (as a noun) of a better covenant” (Hebrews 7:22). Jesus is the pledge or surety that through Him we (his kindred; his blood relatives; his extended family; his people) may obtain the assurance and certainty that a more excellent covenant has been established by God, and are assured also of the truth of the promises connected with it.
