[Patriarchal Blessings] [Patriarchal Blessing of Lorenzo Snow on December 19, 1843]/... Thou hast thy gift & blessing of discernment of spirits to detect error and imbrace [embrace] truth Ask and thou shalt receive the gift and blessing of a white stone in that stone a new name written that no man knoweth save him to whom it is given. ... Prisions [Prisons] shall only cause thee to smile to see the follies of men. Power from on high shall be given thee & clear thy way before thee
... thou shalt have the blessing to win thousands unto Christ... Thousands will honor thee & claim thee their Father in the Gospel ... thine enimies [enemies] shall ever flee from before thee & thou shall yet wear the laurels and crowns of victory upon thy brow Thou shalt ever be admired by all who are lovely & enjoy the society of Kings and Nobles. Brother Joseph shall be thy Prophet and Friend. .... Ask and thou shalt receive length of days untill thou shalt be satisfied with life & see the kingdoms of this world of our Lord and our God, and no good thing shall be withheld from thee.
Ask and thou shalt receive the Anointing and the ordinance in the House of the Lord Thy Posterity shall be as numerous as was promised to Abraham because thou hast the blood of Joseph who was sold into Egypt....

ReplyDeleteLorenzo Snow had more than one patriarchal blessing.

ReplyDeleteThis is false doctrine.
The ONLY people on the face of the whole earth who have the blood of Joseph of Egypt in them are the Aboriginal/Indigenous inhabitants of North, Central, and South America, i.e., the American Indians. They are exclusively BOTH Ephraim AND Manasseh, the 2 sons of Joseph of Egypt.
Lehi was a descendent of Manasseh per Alma 10:3, while Ishmael was a descendent of Ephraim per the Book of Lehi (116 stolen & lost pages), according to JOD 23:184-185 (Discourse of Apostle Erastus Snow given at Logan,Utah on May 6, 1882 recollecting what Joseph Smith told him and others).

One of the most infamous of false doctrines that exists today is what is called "British Israelite-ism."
