[Note: A group of approximately 400 persecuted German Lutheran Separatists formally organized the Harmony Society in Pennsylvania (Harmony, PA). They placed their goods in common under its founder and self proclaimed prophet, Johann Georg Rapp. They believed baptism was not necessary until children could decide for themselves, the U.S. was "the land of Israel," they should abstain from tobacco, that Napoleon was the anti-Christ, a spirit virgin named Sophia, that God had created Adam as a dual being, having male and female sexual organs, but when the female portion of Adam separated to form Eve, disharmony followed (but one could attempt to regain harmony through celibacy) and an imminent 2nd coming. The Society existed for one hundred years in the U.S., roughly from 1805 until 1905. Members were known as Harmonists, Harmonites, or Rappites.]

ReplyDeleteVery true. All of North, Central, and South America rightfully belongs to the American Indian, aka, the seed of Joseph (of Egypt) thru his 2 sons Ephraim (North American Indians) and Manasseh (Central & South American Americans). The U.S. is also the location where the city of the New Jerusalem (Zion) will be built by the American Indian, with the repentant Gentiles assisting them. The American Indian will be restored some future day to their rightful ownership and governship of ALL of both American continents, including the current state of Utah.
Important Note: These events will NOT occur UNTIL The Choice Seer, the future full-blooded American Indian Moses comes forth FIRST. He along with his Aboriginal/Indigenous brothers and sisters (including the Aboriginal/Indigenous people of Asia, Australia, the Pacific Isles, Nunavut, and Greenland - i.e., the 10 Lost Tribes of Israel) and the repentant Gentiles will all be future members of The Church of Jesus Christ [WHQ: Monongahela, Pennsylvania] www.thechurchofjesuschrist.org See 3rd Nephi 21: 10-29.
