That a good first step. Keep inquiring. Remember, the lord is no respecter of persons so your prayer's for knowledge will be answer to your heart's desire. Don't skimp!
Hahaha, I don't imagine so. I'm of the mindset ... that ... I feel comfortable enough in my relationship with God to not be bothered by other peoples faiths. Unless of course, someone wants to try to impose their freedoms over my own.
While he focused entirely on the drugs part, he glossed over the part where sorcerers were the wise, learned, and educated of their day, claiming to know the true nature of spirituality and divinity. We have too many academics and gurus who offer quick fixes, alternative philosophies to the gospel and sell these alongside drugs and medicines.
@jasoneldredge1728 Yep that's what it seems Science's as big Pharma pushes all their drugs through the Science's of medicine. I also think this interpretation is missing a huge component of the literal power both spiritually and physically of the Devil. As we saw Pharaohs sorcerers replicate what Moses done. At the risk of explaining the miraculous powers of Satan. We can fall on that slippery slope where we don't believe in the literal physical power of evil and thereby disassociate with God's power to also perform miracles. Mormon 9: 20 And the reason why he ceaseth to do miracles among the children of men is because that they dwindle in unbelief.
I will only say this. As much as the teacher here says don’t draw conclusions, for me, I will. I appreciated his explanation. It rang true to me. Now, just look around to see that what he is saying is true.
@@TheOGProtestantMormon Yes, I saw that President Nelson is urging us to get vaxed. However, I do not think that is a revelation from God, or he would have stated it as such. Thusly, I think he is merely speaking as a necessity, BECAUSE he is also a Doctor/Surgeon. So he kinda hasta, is my take.
@@GreenTekHaus I'm a convert to The Church of Church of Jesus Christ. I've been a member for 9 years now. Having been a an occult practitioner and a Mage/Magus in The Satanic Priesthood in The Church of Satan and and occult researcher. Im going to tell you right now that this guy is absolutely oblivious/ignorant to the occult and the arts, Magick. It sounds like he also has an agenda to disapprove of something called chemistry and medicine.
@@ArthurPendragon122 It sounds like your point is that relating sourcery and deception to drugs understates the power of the Adversary. Could you say more about what you mean?
@@RobertPrisbrey I say that (now bear in mind that I'm a former Magus/Mage in The Church of Satan).. drugs is a very small part of sorcery.. pharmekia is sorcery THROUGH drugs. Sorcery involves a lot more including summoning up demonic entities with incantation in a Magick circle and sending them out to go hex or curse etcetera. I'd be very careful about studying these things.. but if you really must know, go to Barnes and nobles and look at a black Magick grimoire, study the druid and Celtics religions, check out Aaron vs sorcerers in scripture, as well as the witch in endor.. not merely drugs
Thank you. It is essential that we feel the power of truth in these last days. Daily prayer and scripture study are the best way to fortify our hearts and minds against evil in these last days.
So God is going to send people to the "lake of fire" because some people have medical issues? Well I wouldn't.. I guess I love my kid more than he does! smh! People going to hell is a big fat lie the masses have told to keep people in line!
Thank you! People are legalizing drugs where i live. They said its for people with depression, but they are also using it for recreational use. I only like to take medicine when my parents say i have too. I hope we can learn to hear the spirit in these last days like the prophet said! And dont stop learning
There has been a huge uptick in drug use among the CEOs in the Silicon Valley. They speak of gaining instruction for their business’ success. There are those who hold courses and classes to teach anyone willing to pay and listen to them. I was aware of this culture gaining popularity and aware of the root meaning of sorcery. However I never put the two together until watching this video. Thank you for your diligence and willingness to share.
Thanks so much for your hard work, research and even handed presentation. Those that have ears to hear will take all of this in the spirit in which it is given. Very much appreciated! 👍🏼
As someone who is a medical provider, I can attest that there are prescription drugs out there that can become addictive and enslave a person, as well as I believe by "pharmaceuticals" he was also discussing illegal drugs out there that enslave alot of poor and rich. I strive very hard never to prescribe these types of drugs because I have seen so many become addicted to it. I can see what John was discussing, as it is illegal drug cartels which cause alot of problems in our nations, as well as is usually connected with sex trafficking and all other manner of evil.
Many may not be aware of this, but there are several "spiritual" and/or "healing" practices that do use drugs to help the process along. I have friends who have used one. I can't remember the name of it. It's a deep meditation that involves a drug that reminds me of weed or similar. Several of them have left the church after following this practice. The other is a popular practice going on in Utah and maybe other areas. It's called "the journey" I think. You are given capsules with Mushrooms in them and get together in groups of people to talk out your issues or feelings. The experiences lead to what very much feels like therapy and healing. This confuses people and they think they no longer need Jesus as their healer and they don't need His gospel. Suddenly life is a journey of healing and not a journey of becoming a disciple of Christ. Drugs are being legalized, alcohol and pornogrphy are drugs in their own way as well. I don't think sorcery is meant in any way whatsoever about a vaccine or even much about useful rx's, but rather things that alter our thoughts, emotions, and feelings in ways that are addictive and/or lead us away from Christ. I've sure seen it. Thank you for this video so that I can connect these things to the term or sorcery. It's very accurate.
I would take great caution with any drug that helps meditate. There is beautiful music, that I play to helps me fall asleep to the snoring. In fact, when I put the music on the snoring practically stops. Also, I get much better sleep and longer. I believe natural remedies such as purified essential oils, which, I use the brand doTERRA, Greek meaning: gift of the earth or God’s garden. Well worth the money and definitely safe. Speaking of drugs, in 2019 I got really sick, sicker than I have ever ever been. I ran a fever of 103 for over two weeks. I felt like I was suffocating and I could barely get out of bed before I finally went to a doctor. Only to be told I had a virus. I believe it was my homemade antibiotic that saved my life from COVID-19. I still struggle with my lungs after nearly 2 years and still have no smell, but I have my life.
@@TheJlleyba yes, music and oils are very nice. Meditation is also very good! I'm so sorry about your experience being so sick. 😔 I hope you will be able to smell again!
Pharmaceuticals is definitely included in this. Man has put their faith in the medical community which massively profits off the sale of drugs. While For has given us what we need in wholesome herbs and healthy food. If we keep our faith in him strong and truly understand and live the word of wisdom, which most people don't, we would more often not need pharmaceuticals.
@@michaelhancock9636 I agree, they are definitely NOT innocent. That said, however, some of the drugs are life savers for many. I can attest to that. Like anything else, there are people with good intentions and those with bad.
@@evilprincess3307 there are essential oil companies that are not manipulative MLM/pyramid schemes. I agree that the MLM market for essential oils breed misinformation in an attempt to make sales. But that said, the FDA and government make it really hard to get accurate information on what essential oils can help with.
We have been given the word of wisdom which besides pointing out how we should basically avoid any addictive substance which steels away our agency. Speaks so much to what we should eat ( wheat , fresh fruits and vegetables and very little meat at all) if we did other more than strictly obey these words we would avoid so much of the sufferings of this world. We would avoid having to take most medications and would avoid the doctors and a early grave.
“None are required to tamely and blindly submit to a man because he has a portion of the priesthood. We have heard men who hold the priesthood remark, that they would do anything they were told to do by those who presided over them, if they knew it was wrong; but such obedience as this is worse than folly to us; it is slavery in the extreme; and the man who would thus willingly degrade himself should not claim a rank among intelligent beings, until he turns from his folly. A man of God…would despise the idea. Others, in the extreme…have taught that such obedience was necessary, and that no matter what the saints were told to do by their presidents, they should do it without asking any questions. When Elders of Israel will so far indulge in these extreme notions of obedience as to teach them to the people, it is generally because they have it in their minds to do wrong themselves” Joseph Smith, Millennial Star, vol.14 #38, pp. 593-95
@@alvinstreicker4579 if the prophet asks us to do something,it is the same as the Lord speaking. The test IS,will you be obedient? Justify all you want but I’d be very careful if I were you. The thing you need to pray about is, is he a true prophet of God or not? If your answer is yes, then you follow him. Whatever he says. That is NOT blindly following. If you don’t believe, I don’t know what else to tell you.
@@alvinstreicker4579 Amen, that is what President Nelson has been encouraging us to do for years now....go to the one who will teach you the truth of all things....the Holy Spirit.
I appreciate your presentation on this. I've also noticed an great increase in energy healing practices over the years. Having been involved in many of these practices myself before walking away a few years ago, I can 100 % tell you that many of these modalities are sorcery.
Making my own sour dough starter and buying unbleached wheat. Look to see where the food you are eating comes from. GMO is being used in USA grown foods. Grow and bottle or dehydrate as much food as you can. Go in with neighbors to buy from local cattle and pig ranchers. Thank you for helping us put things in perspective. Always follow the prophet. He helped me getting the jab.
@@annstewart3324 just remember that the word of wisdom teaches to eat meat sparingly, and even gets more specific saying that it is pleasing to God that meat is only eaten during times of cold, winter, or famine. Meat consumption, according to the word of wisdom, should be incredibly minimal. However, I see most members of the church not following this part of our doctrine.
This was a well done presentation! Thank you for it🤍🕊 One thing bothering me in this comment section is people acting as if prescribed medicine is evil.. Our church leaders have said they're a BLESSING under a GOOD doctor's supervision. Try living with multiple head injuries or schizophrenia and people telling you "Ah HECK! You just need to THINK POSITIVE!" There ARE situations that require medicine.. Still, even with meds, good eating habits and exercise make a HUGE difference. We can rely on our primary answers: pray often 🙏🏼 read scriptures and follow the prophet! Then you won't go wrong 💜💖💞
My doc at first was very pro-you know what, the last time I went he was not pro that jab and told me to keep doing what I was doing which was using topical liquid ivermectin from our local farm store every 6 months for prevention. You use it as an essential oil on the bottoms of your feet. He even recommended my method of delivery over a pharma pill of ivermectin. He said it wouldn't have to go through your liver as the pill would.
Prescribed medicine such as anti-depressants and zanax for anxiety were prescribed so much for members of the Church back in the 80's and 90's that the Church had someone do a study on it, and found out that throughout the valley people were being over medicated. And back then instead of asking things like, are you exercising, or what are you eating and such, they were prescribed these meds and it really was something. Things like prozac and paxil were numbing out feelings and members were staying on them much longer than needed and with some, they couldn't taper off of paxil. That was the problem and that was many years ago. Since then people have realized is there other things I can do before I take medication. Bi Polar is a different animal and people have to have medication for that and schizophrenia as well.
@@donnavaughn9409 YES👍🏻I remember that time, and was one of those guinea pigs too🤯 After that, I self medicated with street drugs for awhile. Then later, was able to work into the correct combo of medication, exercise, and MOST IMPORTANTLY a personal relationship with Jesus Christ 🤍🕊 It didn't all happen overnight, but slowly over YEARS... SO WORTH IT!🥳
While I completely appreciate your disclaimer in the end THIS 100% resonates with me!! Thank you for following inspiration and taking the time to put this together! I enjoyed this very much! ☺️
I think you'd enjoy the channel The II LDS Archives, that guy has an impressive knowledge of scriptures. And all he teaches is follow the prophet to stand in holy places.
@@greentree_ I had a different experience with that guy. We gotta use discernment and be careful who we listen to. I’m not even gonna get into it but I’m just saying we gotta be very careful especially in these last days.
@@VolleyballMama He IS bold and doesn't mince words, he tells you how it is. And that's a positive about him, imo. You'd be surprised how many people crave boldness nowadays. People will either love him or hate him, I guess.
Thank you for your research, very interesting. I have seen this is my family, where a family member was smoking pot regularly and you could see them being lethargic, lazy and just complacent. They could be easily manipulated. The scriptures are spot on when talking about sorcery.
This is such an interesting topic. I believe it has helped me gain a little understanding of some experiences I've had. When I was on my mission we were teaching a less active member who suffered greatly from drug addiction and mental illness. I don't know if his mental illness was caused by his drug use, but based on the drugs he was using it is very possible. This member would frequently go off his medication and have periods of bipolar schizophrenia. When he had these episodes he fully believed he was the archangel Michael reincarnated and he would say the most wild things. One day, my companion and I went to his house to meet with him and he happened to have a "friend" there. As soon as we entered the home there was a very dark, uncomfortable feeling despite the home being well lit. This "friend" was certainly also a drug addict and I had a suspicion he may have been a dealer as well. This man was very well spoken and charismatic. We talked to him for probably 20 minutes or so and he left before we started our lesson with the member with a prayer. But before he left he did something uncanny. He made a "prophecy". He claimed to be able to look at us and see our futures. I don't remember all the details but he told me exactly which career I would go into, and he told my companion that he would become a bishop. I don't know if that companion has become a bishop yet, but he did later go on to become an assistant to the mission president. The career he predicted for me happened to be the exact job I had been planning on pursuing after my mission, and which after several years of work and training after my mission I did eventually achieve. I believe now that he was one of the "sorcerers" mentioned in scripture, and a false prophet. Perhaps he could even be considered a false Christ based on the kind of influence he had over our member friend.
That's very interesting. Satan also can predict the future. Look at Nostradamus. There's lots of soothsayers out there that are good at guessing the future. Maybe he picked up on something's you said in your conversation.
I'm so glad I found this channel. I REALLY appreciate the modest, humble approach in these videos and the restraint to stop short of making predictions and hard interpretations...others do that and they loose credibility instantly. Also, thanks for not being "whacko".
As I was watching this video, I was reminded of a video posted by Sergio and Rhoda in Israel titled: Shocking Discovery at Ancient Temple in Israel. In that video, I learned that cannabis was used at certain religious centers in ancient Israel. These days, I watch as state legislatures across the nation work to legalize recreational cannabis use. Certainly that work of "evil and conspiring men." I do not know that cannabis is the drug of sorcery, but it was interesting to put these several pieces together. Something for me to study out for next week. Thank you.
If you've ever used Afrin for an extended time, you know this is true. Stuff builds a dependency hard.

I did not put this together until just now. I have no doubt this is what sorceries in the last days come from.

Thank you brother. What a well researched and evidence based application of wisdom.

I seriously need help here. How am I supposed to be inspired by men of God who tell me these poisons are safe and effective? I am really struggling with this.
Prophets are humans, they have opinions about things JUST LIKE YOU DO! Their opinions are NOT SCRIPTURE OR DOCTRINE. He said when he made the announcement that he didn't say everyone else must get it. He left that decision up to you! I had the Covid-19 virus so I have immunity-so I don't need the VAX. Would I get the jab if I didn't have the virus??? NO! THIS VAX IS NOT LIKE THE THOUSANDS OF VAXES THAT THE LDS CHURCH HAS SO KINDLY DISTRIBUTED TO 3rd WORLD NATIONS WHO NEED HELP WITH SO MANY DISEASES THAT HAVE BECOME RARE RATHER THAN COMMONLY SEEN BY PHYSICIANS. Dr. Nelson is a surgeon so he speaks from a medical surgeon's perspective. He is not a viralogist which makes a difference. Many LDS PHYSICIANS have discouraged the "jab" - but they are NOT in the same field as Nelson is. The Prophet is trying to do what's best and he has seen traditional vaxes work wonders - but not this vax! Just because you aren't too crazy about his advice doesn't mean he's not a prophet. Make your decision and accept the consequences - just like everyone else. Stop being so critical of President Nelson! Critical of Biden? 🤣😉😏 just keep it to yourself!
Great vid. Thanks for the disclaimer. I do suggest another video dealing specifically with the occult. This is something exploding among the young women of the Church, as they reject the Gospel and seek other forms of spirituality.
Absolutely fantastic insights, thoughts & ideas to consider.. especially within the gospel doctrine.. presented plainly, simply & an extremely rewarding "rabbit hole" to explore!!.. I wonder how many other "less explored" scriptural topics are as rewarding as this turned out to be!?.. 🤔 Love the extra facts & definitions that we just don't normally think about..
I do not think that applies to sorcery. I wouldn't take this video like that. Check out my comment if you like. I found a natural pain reliever in Coradalis root and others swear by wild lettuce. Herbal stores likely have even more options. I also met a lady at the temple that said 1/4 cup of ground flax seed in her yogurt helped her with arthritic pain in her hands (which were severely distorted). Anyway, these were just ideas if you were interested. 💗
I think you do what you feel is right. Prescription drugs become a problem when you take them and don't need them. If you need them, you take them what you need them for and the proper amount.
@@elbotoface Thank you. I have tried the wild lettuce it didn't do anything. But I will try the flax seeds and the other you mentioned. Thank you for answering me💜
Thanks for another great video. I'm always glad to see when a new one is posted. I have a little different opinion about sorcery in these last days. Webster's 1828 dictionary defines sorcery - SOR'CERY, noun Magic; enchantment; divination by the assistance of evil spirits, or the power of commanding evil spirits. I'm afraid drugs are just one of many paths that lead to sorcery, where people are using their agency to turn to these dark spirits for whatever advantages they believe they can get. In my opinion anything that weakens the will, or has an addictive nature to it, i.e. gives body power over mind, or causes an impure heart where the Holy Ghost cannot abide with us, is likely enabling these spirits who are far more knowledgeable and powerful than most people believe. Once they are able to entice a person into consenting to their presence, people begin to become familiar with them. I've heard stories of power hungry government leaders (Hitler for example) that sought means for advanced technology, military weapons, bioweapons, etc. from supernatural sources. These spirits have been around at least as long as human life on earth and they have witnessed periods of advanced technology that surpass what we have now and likely barter for the valuable information they have. Some think the UFO phenomena is due to these spirits somehow getting access into our dimension through human help. Satan and these unembodied spirits have always sought to entice, overcome, and possess anyone with a body. I have read a few early Christian writers who think that the mark of the beast is nothing more than the Satanic version of having the Lord's image in our countenance. The mark of the beast being something recognizable in those who are rebelling against God, and turning to the dark evil elements in the unseen world. “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. “ Ephesians 6:12
Thank you for your comments. May I share with you my personal testimony? What you say about agency is true. Use of agency can have greater power if used for Gods purposes. Anything that strengthens our faith and Heavenly Fathers’ purpose enable us to draw closer to him. We can and need to be “familiar” in our relationship with him. I recently enjoyed the talk by Wendy Watson Nelson about change and our ability to choose to change by reflecting on the atonement of Jesus Christ. We need to “Rend the veil of unbelief and access the power of the Atonement of Jesus Christ.” Wendy Watson,BYU 5-7-2018 Change It’s’ always a possibility] “What We choose to embrace to be responsive to is the purest reflection of who we are and what we love” -Joseph Smith
We can truly combat the evil purposes of the world and find comfort in our daily lives. May we all have the image of Jesus Christ in the in our countenances, and become one with him in our actions and purpose. CHOOSE WELL All the water in the world No matter how it tried Could never sink the smallest ship Unless it got inside. All the evil of the world And every kind of sin Could never damn a human soul Unless we let it in.
Wow this is so crazy interesting. I’m LDS, born and raised in the church, and I’m a writer. I’m working on a fantasy book series that has people using magic in it. I’ve thought a few times in the past about the times in the scriptures where it mentions magic and sorcery, and it’s always negative/in an evil light. I’ve wondered maybe I shouldn’t write this book, or watch things like Harry Potter/LOTR. But I’ve never ever ever equated magic with drugs. That was so interesting to learn. “People will use magic/drugs in the last day to kill a great many people.” Dude. That’s the Opioid Epidemic! This is so crazy. I’m definetly going to do more research on this. Thank you so much for your video!!!

Very good video. I’m wondering if I can get some help with the D&C 52:14 reference to a pattern? What is this pattern, I’m not recognizing it in the following verses. Is it to pray and speak with a contrite spirit?
Context i think matters. When this is using the word "Sorceries", it's always in a negative manner. when my doctor gives me a pill, that's authorized and for my good. As long as i stick to what i'm given by my doctor, i'm good to go!
This quote about drugs by Pres. Hinkley makes me angry. Because many of the Latter-Day Saints are actually pushing dangerous drugs. How? Well many doctors, psychiatrists, and other's in the medical profession are prescribing some of the most dangerous drug's known to man. I am talking about legal drugs of course,and many of these are worse than illegal drug's. I mean Hinckleys quote is true, but it so hypocritical to talk about the illegal drug pusher's and leave out the many church members who prescribe drugs that are just as bad and "Warp" minds too. I know because I was prescribed large dose's of zanax by some L.D.S. doctors who were MONSTERS. It took over 10 years to get off this drug and the side effects were disasterous. The damage to the Brain(mind) and body is just as bad as the Illegal drugs. The Saint's are quilty too of this crime!!
Not to mention the effect prescription drugs can have on our spirits. At least that was my experience with antidepressants and a couple other people I have talked to about it said the same thing.
@@danielallotey7549 l am not speaking against the prophet s ,only members who call themselves christians and who would destroy their fellow man or church members with these dangerous drugs for a buck$$. Your comment is silly.

I understand that the witchcraft mentioned here refers to the use of drugs and as I understood the third interpretation included magic but in the whole video I only seemed to hear that word once and only quoted but not deepened, so my question can you make a video please that talk about magic, enchantments, spells or mythological beings please? thank you very much, i love your channel
I believe the urge we got from the first presidency to be from God. President Nelson and his counselors are men of God, not only when they wear suits are they prophets but by every word and deed that comes out their mouth it is the same as the Lord has stated. I do believe big pharma are in business for something but the invitation we received last year is from God. Therefore the Prophet does not need to say “this sayeth the Lord” to be a commandment. Also I really liked in the latest video that this account posted the formula to understand doctrine. First is the scriptures, then what Joseph Smith said and then Prophets and then everyone else. President Nelson is the Prophet that we need today to lead us safely to where we need to go
One thing to consider though is that "Even the very elect shall be deceived". I think that we can safely presume that the very elect will follow direct commands and warnings from the prophet, so how can they possibly be deceived? Is the prophet considered to be among the elect as well? Can he be deceived? I personally believe that there are times he is speaking as prophet and there are times he is speaking as a man. The churches guidance on the vax was never given as a command or part of a prophesy. In any case, I hope that what he says at the end of this video is true, and that the destroying angel will pass us by regardless. And I hope that the new info that respected journals are releasing about the vax aren't correct, because I have family who has taken it. I'd rather be wrong. The more time passes, the worse it looks though.
Love your videos. Thank you for doing this. Just one suggestion: comply with the prophet’s commandment to discard references such as “LDS”. You can use “Latter-day Saint”.
Just because he mentioned the vaccines, I have to comment that anything the Prophet encourages us to take simply cannot be included in this category of "bad drugs", there are a lot of "good drugs" too that we wouldn't survive without and the invention of these surely has been inspired :)
Why can’t it be bad if a prophet suggested it? Where is it written that prophets can’t be wrong or that everything they say or do is correct, good, or doctrinally accurate? The blind obedience is spiritually lazy and does not, in fact, align with LDS doctrine. Many prophets have been wrong, both in scripture and latter-days. We are to heed the words of the Lord’s servants and seek confirmation with the Holy Ghost to know if what they’re saying is from God. Many modern prophets have confirmed this as well.
I was very biased about the Vac even when the prophet said it was ok and he got one. Back in June I told my husband to pray about it because I’m biased (in the university I learned it takes 18 months to make a vac) my husband prayed and received peace. He then saw the letter P everywhere all day. I told him that’s Pfizer and he said I thought it started with an F. I got Pfizer and I have peace about it.
Could someone explain Revelations 9:20 22 means these peope are going to go to the telestial kindom? Thanks. I'm a tennage mameber, and I'm trying to learn more about the gospel
Why do I feel sick and empty and lost when I hear of a family member so willing and excited about getting these shots? If it were a blessed thing given to us to truly help against disease's, Shouldn't I feel happy for them and also desire this? And yet I feel as lost and confused as if in some horrible alternative universe, my own mother were to turn her back on the gospel and rail against God with all her might! It just seems that unimaginable to me. Is there something wrong with my faith? I keep receiving blessings so, I don't know.
You are asking a great question. Something feels wrong about taking the shots, doesn’t it! If you haven’t had the shot(s) yet, I encourage you to get your own answer directly from your Father in Heaven. Hear and Trust Him. Our great prophet has to speak fondly of the shots; to do otherwise could place many of our fellow saints in even more danger-all over the world. Don’t trust in the arm of the flesh, or the narrative of the day.
@@jameskboyer thank you. This last week has been a treasure trove of new information how it's affecting people. ITS ALL BAD! Everytime I walk past a place where there giving shots, I just get irritated and angry just for the reason I'm around it. Well, there are my 2 witnesses. I hope your faith carries you and your family through 👍🙏
I am picking up what you are putting down. Just saddens me though. I always believed that the Lord delighted in plainness. Having to go through these translations gymnastics to draw a conclusion really upsets me for some reason. For example, The Mormon 1:19 verse to me always just meant that evil powers prevailed. They worshiped the devil and drew their power from darkness rather than the Lord. Never thought it meant the got high on drugs.
I do not take your video's as gospel thats for sure but I am greateful you have taken the time to spell out some things member and non members do not know or have missed. I have NOTICED alot of members out there putting up video's " as a warning " because I do feel we are in those days. Governments have gone mad or been possessed in a rush to enslave us or bind us to their doctrines and ideology's which do not co-currently align with gospel standard's.
People just need to know the difference between pharmakia and marijuana. As one is man made and one is a seed bearing plant that is a main ingredient in anointing oil and is the plant of renown. As we have receptors in our brains for this plant and this plant alone.
Hydrochloric acid. Death cap mushroom. Arsenic. Anthrax. All naturally occurring. All deadly. Just because it's natural doesn't mean it won't kill you. Or, at the very least, bring you very near death. A drug is a substance that interferes with the way our bodies work. Sounds like tons of things out there, "natural" or not.
Funny my husband got to chickens for eggs 🥚 but continues to buy eggs I ask why ? He replied I don’t trust them ! Me 🤦🏼♀️ he is so brain washed he’s afraid to eat fresh chicken eggs !
I can certainly see that, yes. Someone recently explained why he vapes; it changed the way his body felt and his state of mind was altered. I forgot the word he used. Loopy, light, but whatever it was, it was something that he craved.
The scriptures teach that we are not to put our trust in any man as far as I have been able to find. Where in the scriptures do we get the idea that we are to follow a man?
@@AntonydenDulk except when the man is the mouthpiece of God - his prophet. We ARE to follow the prophet in all his counsels. The scriptures says, as from God's mouth or the mouth of his prophets, IT IS THE SAME. If you don't believe the prophet, you're living a lie in the Church.
@@greentree_ whether by mine own voice or by the voice of my servants, it is the same. That is the actual quote - notice there is nothing about prophets there. I'm a servant of God so this could write easily apply to me.
@@davidk4869 Doctrine and Covenants one does not teach following the prophet, it teaches that it does not matter if God speaks the word himself or a servant speaks his word since they are the same. "my word shall not pass away, but shall all be fulfilled, whether by mine own voice or by the voice of my servants, it is the same." Notice that it starts with "my word" so it only applies to words that a servant has received from God. All who receive God's word and follow it are his servants, it is not limited to one person. There is also no requirement to follow that servant in that statement, God is merely saying that he will fulfill his word no matter who speaks his word. Am I missing something in the section?
I don't mind going out on a limb. If the gods that you have a direct relationship with is not malevolent and/or ones mentioned in the keys of Solomon/books of Enoch etc etc. You have to have to ask your self am I giving willing to the the god/gods that I have a direct relationship with? And If so is the/,they god/gods a malevolent force.
As a sorcerer, I define "sorcery" or more generally magick, broadly...as the actions of casting spells, performing rituals, working with entities outside of those proscribed by the bible, or imposing one's psychic will, to manifest change in the physical realm, or to divine answers for that which is unknown. This can be done in concert with mind altering substances, as was historically done by shamans, medicine men, priests, and sorcerers in ancient times. I must say I am not a fan of a bible that purports to have an all loving god, but if you disobey his dictates, you get to burn in a lake of fire for all eternity. So trillions upon trillions of years for say a lifespan of 70 years of indiscretion. It would seem to me this is a human contrivance rather than divine truth.
Psychedelics are having a comeback. Specifically mushrooms. I know a lot of people that left the church who are interested or doing Ayahuasca. You take the tea (it has DMT) and a shaman will guide you toward healing. It really is Interesting that many are seeking “spirituality” through these things.
I'm not Mormon but certain interpretations of the Bible in these videos are pretty interesting.
That a good first step.
Keep inquiring.
Remember, the lord is no respecter of persons so your prayer's for knowledge will be answer to your heart's desire.
Don't skimp!
Why are you not a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints?
I am. and it is still fascinating.
I appreciate you being civil, we don't get a lot of that lol
Hahaha, I don't imagine so. I'm of the mindset ... that ... I feel comfortable enough in my relationship with God to not be bothered by other peoples faiths. Unless of course, someone wants to try to impose their freedoms over my own.
While he focused entirely on the drugs part, he glossed over the part where sorcerers were the wise, learned, and educated of their day, claiming to know the true nature of spirituality and divinity. We have too many academics and gurus who offer quick fixes, alternative philosophies to the gospel and sell these alongside drugs and medicines.
So basically Scienceᵀᴹ? 😉
So basically sorcery...
@jasoneldredge1728 Yep that's what it seems Science's as big Pharma pushes all their drugs through the Science's of medicine.
I also think this interpretation is missing a huge component of the literal power both spiritually and physically of the Devil. As we saw Pharaohs sorcerers replicate what Moses done.
At the risk of explaining the miraculous powers of Satan. We can fall on that slippery slope where we don't believe in the literal physical power of evil and thereby disassociate with God's power to also perform miracles.
Mormon 9:
20 And the reason why he ceaseth to do miracles among the children of men is because that they dwindle in unbelief.
I will only say this. As much as the teacher here says don’t draw conclusions, for me, I will. I appreciated his explanation. It rang true to me. Now, just look around to see that what he is saying is true.
Who is urging us to be vaccinated? Just a thought.
@@TheOGProtestantMormon Yes, I saw that President Nelson is urging us to get vaxed. However, I do not think that is a revelation from God, or he would have stated it as such. Thusly, I think he is merely speaking as a necessity, BECAUSE he is also a Doctor/Surgeon. So he kinda hasta, is my take.
@@GreenTekHaus I'm a convert to The Church of Church of Jesus Christ. I've been a member for 9 years now. Having been a an occult practitioner and a Mage/Magus in The Satanic Priesthood in The Church of Satan and and occult researcher. Im going to tell you right now that this guy is absolutely oblivious/ignorant to the occult and the arts, Magick.
It sounds like he also has an agenda to disapprove of something called chemistry and medicine.
@@ArthurPendragon122 It sounds like your point is that relating sourcery and deception to drugs understates the power of the Adversary. Could you say more about what you mean?
@@RobertPrisbrey I say that (now bear in mind that I'm a former Magus/Mage in The Church of Satan).. drugs is a very small part of sorcery.. pharmekia is sorcery THROUGH drugs. Sorcery involves a lot more including summoning up demonic entities with incantation in a Magick circle and sending them out to go hex or curse etcetera. I'd be very careful about studying these things.. but if you really must know, go to Barnes and nobles and look at a black Magick grimoire, study the druid and Celtics religions, check out Aaron vs sorcerers in scripture, as well as the witch in endor.. not merely drugs
Thank you. It is essential that we feel the power of truth in these last days. Daily prayer and scripture study are the best way to fortify our hearts and minds against evil in these last days.
So God is going to send people to the "lake of fire" because some people have medical issues? Well I wouldn't.. I guess I love my kid more than he does! smh! People going to hell is a big fat lie the masses have told to keep people in line!
Thank you! People are legalizing drugs where i live. They said its for people with depression, but they are also using it for recreational use.
I only like to take medicine when my parents say i have too.
I hope we can learn to hear the spirit in these last days like the prophet said! And dont stop learning
You are wise and blessed
There has been a huge uptick in drug use among the CEOs in the Silicon Valley. They speak of gaining instruction for their business’ success. There are those who hold courses and classes to teach anyone willing to pay and listen to them.
I was aware of this culture gaining popularity and aware of the root meaning of sorcery. However I never put the two together until watching this video. Thank you for your diligence and willingness to share.
Thanks so much for your hard work, research and even handed presentation. Those that have ears to hear will take all of this in the spirit in which it is given. Very much appreciated! 👍🏼

As someone who is a medical provider, I can attest that there are prescription drugs out there that can become addictive and enslave a person, as well as I believe by "pharmaceuticals" he was also discussing illegal drugs out there that enslave alot of poor and rich. I strive very hard never to prescribe these types of drugs because I have seen so many become addicted to it. I can see what John was discussing, as it is illegal drug cartels which cause alot of problems in our nations, as well as is usually connected with sex trafficking and all other manner of evil.
Many may not be aware of this, but there are several "spiritual" and/or "healing" practices that do use drugs to help the process along. I have friends who have used one. I can't remember the name of it. It's a deep meditation that involves a drug that reminds me of weed or similar. Several of them have left the church after following this practice. The other is a popular practice going on in Utah and maybe other areas. It's called "the journey" I think. You are given capsules with Mushrooms in them and get together in groups of people to talk out your issues or feelings. The experiences lead to what very much feels like therapy and healing. This confuses people and they think they no longer need Jesus as their healer and they don't need His gospel. Suddenly life is a journey of healing and not a journey of becoming a disciple of Christ. Drugs are being legalized, alcohol and pornogrphy are drugs in their own way as well. I don't think sorcery is meant in any way whatsoever about a vaccine or even much about useful rx's, but rather things that alter our thoughts, emotions, and feelings in ways that are addictive and/or lead us away from Christ. I've sure seen it. Thank you for this video so that I can connect these things to the term or sorcery. It's very accurate.
I would take great caution with any drug that helps meditate.
There is beautiful music, that I play to helps me fall asleep to the snoring. In fact, when I put the music on the snoring practically stops. Also, I get much better sleep and longer. I believe natural remedies such as purified essential oils, which, I use the brand doTERRA, Greek meaning: gift of the earth or God’s garden. Well worth the money and definitely safe.
Speaking of drugs, in 2019 I got really sick, sicker than I have ever ever been. I ran a fever of 103 for over two weeks. I felt like I was suffocating and I could barely get out of bed before I finally went to a doctor. Only to be told I had a virus. I believe it was my homemade antibiotic that saved my life from COVID-19. I still struggle with my lungs after nearly 2 years and still have no smell, but I have my life.
@@TheJlleyba yes, music and oils are very nice. Meditation is also very good!
I'm so sorry about your experience being so sick. 😔 I hope you will be able to smell again!
Pharmaceuticals is definitely included in this. Man has put their faith in the medical community which massively profits off the sale of drugs. While For has given us what we need in wholesome herbs and healthy food. If we keep our faith in him strong and truly understand and live the word of wisdom, which most people don't, we would more often not need pharmaceuticals.
@@michaelhancock9636 I agree, they are definitely NOT innocent. That said, however, some of the drugs are life savers for many. I can attest to that. Like anything else, there are people with good intentions and those with bad.
@@evilprincess3307 there are essential oil companies that are not manipulative MLM/pyramid schemes. I agree that the MLM market for essential oils breed misinformation in an attempt to make sales. But that said, the FDA and government make it really hard to get accurate information on what essential oils can help with.
We have been given the word of wisdom which besides pointing out how we should basically avoid any addictive substance which steels away our agency. Speaks so much to what we should eat ( wheat , fresh fruits and vegetables and very little meat at all) if we did other more than strictly obey these words we would avoid so much of the sufferings of this world. We would avoid having to take most medications and would avoid the doctors and a early grave.
Heya Sandy! Long time no see! I hope you're all doing well. Hi to the lovely Dora from me 💖
Thanks.
“None are required to tamely and blindly submit to a man because he has a portion of the priesthood. We have heard men who hold the priesthood remark, that they would do anything they were told to do by those who presided over them, if they knew it was wrong; but such obedience as this is worse than folly to us; it is slavery in the extreme; and the man who would thus willingly degrade himself should not claim a rank among intelligent beings, until he turns from his folly. A man of God…would despise the idea. Others, in the extreme…have taught that such obedience was necessary, and that no matter what the saints were told to do by their presidents, they should do it without asking any questions. When Elders of Israel will so far indulge in these extreme notions of obedience as to teach them to the people, it is generally because they have it in their minds to do wrong themselves”
Joseph Smith, Millennial Star, vol.14 #38, pp. 593-95
Amen.
I have heard at least 1 prophet and 1 of the 12 or 70 say to go to the Lord himself and pray to find your own answer....
@@alvinstreicker4579 if the prophet asks us to do something,it is the same as the Lord speaking. The test IS,will you be obedient? Justify all you want but I’d be very careful if I were you. The thing you need to pray about is, is he a true prophet of God or not? If your answer is yes, then you follow him. Whatever he says. That is NOT blindly following. If you don’t believe, I don’t know what else to tell you.
@@alvinstreicker4579 Amen, that is what President Nelson has been encouraging us to do for years now....go to the one who will teach you the truth of all things....the Holy Spirit.
I appreciate your presentation on this. I've also noticed an great increase in energy healing practices over the years. Having been involved in many of these practices myself before walking away a few years ago, I can 100 % tell you that many of these modalities are sorcery.
Reguarding the word of wisdom it feels like conspiring men has ruined the goodness of grain.

There was a meat scandal here in Brazil a few years ago
Making my own sour dough starter and buying unbleached wheat. Look to see where the food you are eating comes from. GMO is being used in USA grown foods. Grow and bottle or dehydrate as much food as you can. Go in with neighbors to buy from local cattle and pig ranchers. Thank you for helping us put things in perspective. Always follow the prophet. He helped me getting the jab.
Heavy antibiotic use may be the real culprit with this. The destruction of beneficial gut bacteria is key in understanding this topic.
@@annstewart3324 just remember that the word of wisdom teaches to eat meat sparingly, and even gets more specific saying that it is pleasing to God that meat is only eaten during times of cold, winter, or famine. Meat consumption, according to the word of wisdom, should be incredibly minimal. However, I see most members of the church not following this part of our doctrine.
This was a well done presentation! Thank you for it🤍🕊
One thing bothering me in this comment section is people acting as if prescribed medicine is evil..
Our church leaders have said they're a BLESSING under a GOOD doctor's supervision.
Try living with multiple head injuries or schizophrenia and people telling you "Ah HECK! You just need to THINK POSITIVE!" There ARE situations that require medicine..
Still, even with meds, good eating habits and exercise make a HUGE difference.
We can rely on our primary answers: pray often 🙏🏼 read scriptures and follow the prophet! Then you won't go wrong 💜💖💞
My doc at first was very pro-you know what, the last time I went he was not pro that jab and told me to keep doing what I was doing which was using topical liquid ivermectin from our local farm store every 6 months for prevention. You use it as an essential oil on the bottoms of your feet. He even recommended my method of delivery over a pharma pill of ivermectin. He said it wouldn't have to go through your liver as the pill would.
True
Prescribed medicine such as anti-depressants and zanax for anxiety were prescribed so much for members of the Church back in the 80's and 90's that the Church had someone do a study on it, and found out that throughout the valley people were being over medicated. And back then instead of asking things like, are you exercising, or what are you eating and such, they were prescribed these meds and it really was something. Things like prozac and paxil were numbing out feelings and members were staying on them much longer than needed and with some, they couldn't taper off of paxil. That was the problem and that was many years ago. Since then people have realized is there other things I can do before I take medication.
Bi Polar is a different animal and people have to have medication for that and schizophrenia as well.
@@franciegwin Interesting.. never heard of that👍🏻❤
@@donnavaughn9409 YES👍🏻I remember that time, and was one of those guinea pigs too🤯
After that, I self medicated with street drugs for awhile. Then later, was able to work into the correct combo of medication, exercise, and MOST IMPORTANTLY a personal relationship with Jesus Christ 🤍🕊
It didn't all happen overnight, but slowly over YEARS...
SO WORTH IT!🥳
While I completely appreciate your disclaimer in the end THIS 100% resonates with me!! Thank you for following inspiration and taking the time to put this together! I enjoyed this very much! ☺️
Your scriptural knowledge is impressive. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.
I think you'd enjoy the channel The II LDS Archives, that guy has an impressive knowledge of scriptures. And all he teaches is follow the prophet to stand in holy places.
@@greentree_ I had a different experience with that guy. We gotta use discernment and be careful who we listen to. I’m not even gonna get into it but I’m just saying we gotta be very careful especially in these last days.
@@VolleyballMama He IS bold and doesn't mince words, he tells you how it is. And that's a positive about him, imo. You'd be surprised how many people crave boldness nowadays. People will either love him or hate him, I guess.

@@VolleyballMama I agree
Thank you for your research, very interesting. I have seen this is my family, where a family member was smoking pot regularly and you could see them being lethargic, lazy and just complacent. They could be easily manipulated. The scriptures are spot on when talking about sorcery.
This is such an interesting topic. I believe it has helped me gain a little understanding of some experiences I've had.
When I was on my mission we were teaching a less active member who suffered greatly from drug addiction and mental illness. I don't know if his mental illness was caused by his drug use, but based on the drugs he was using it is very possible.
This member would frequently go off his medication and have periods of bipolar schizophrenia. When he had these episodes he fully believed he was the archangel Michael reincarnated and he would say the most wild things. One day, my companion and I went to his house to meet with him and he happened to have a "friend" there. As soon as we entered the home there was a very dark, uncomfortable feeling despite the home being well lit. This "friend" was certainly also a drug addict and I had a suspicion he may have been a dealer as well. This man was very well spoken and charismatic. We talked to him for probably 20 minutes or so and he left before we started our lesson with the member with a prayer. But before he left he did something uncanny. He made a "prophecy". He claimed to be able to look at us and see our futures. I don't remember all the details but he told me exactly which career I would go into, and he told my companion that he would become a bishop. I don't know if that companion has become a bishop yet, but he did later go on to become an assistant to the mission president. The career he predicted for me happened to be the exact job I had been planning on pursuing after my mission, and which after several years of work and training after my mission I did eventually achieve. I believe now that he was one of the "sorcerers" mentioned in scripture, and a false prophet. Perhaps he could even be considered a false Christ based on the kind of influence he had over our member friend.
That's very interesting. Satan also can predict the future. Look at Nostradamus. There's lots of soothsayers out there that are good at guessing the future. Maybe he picked up on something's you said in your conversation.
I'm so glad I found this channel. I REALLY appreciate the modest, humble approach in these videos and the restraint to stop short of making predictions and hard interpretations...others do that and they loose credibility instantly. Also, thanks for not being "whacko".
As I was watching this video, I was reminded of a video posted by Sergio and Rhoda in Israel titled: Shocking Discovery at Ancient Temple in Israel. In that video, I learned that cannabis was used at certain religious centers in ancient Israel. These days, I watch as state legislatures across the nation work to legalize recreational cannabis use. Certainly that work of "evil and conspiring men." I do not know that cannabis is the drug of sorcery, but it was interesting to put these several pieces together. Something for me to study out for next week. Thank you.
If you've ever used Afrin for an extended time, you know this is true. Stuff builds a dependency hard. Just got over a lung infection also caused from it dripping into my lungs at night and causing capillary growth. Been off of it for 1 month now lol.

Psychedelics are the drugs you’re looking for. Okay so I’ve been hearing a lot of people talking about psychedelics for religious and spiritual experiences. even Jordan Peterson’s talks a lot about it. I am totally blown away right now.

Thank you brother. What a well researched and evidence based application of wisdom.

I seriously need help here. How am I supposed to be inspired by men of God who tell me these poisons are safe and effective? I am really struggling with this.
Prophets are humans,
they have opinions about things JUST LIKE YOU DO!
Their opinions are NOT SCRIPTURE OR DOCTRINE. He said when he made the announcement that he didn't say everyone else must get it. He left that decision up to you! I had the Covid-19 virus so I have immunity-so I don't need the VAX. Would I get the jab if I didn't have the virus??? NO! THIS VAX IS NOT LIKE THE THOUSANDS OF VAXES THAT THE LDS CHURCH HAS SO KINDLY DISTRIBUTED TO 3rd WORLD NATIONS WHO NEED HELP WITH SO MANY DISEASES THAT HAVE BECOME RARE RATHER THAN COMMONLY SEEN BY PHYSICIANS. Dr. Nelson is a surgeon so he speaks from a medical surgeon's perspective. He is not a viralogist which makes a difference. Many LDS PHYSICIANS have discouraged the "jab" - but they are NOT in the same field as Nelson is. The Prophet is trying to do what's best and he has seen traditional vaxes work wonders - but not this vax! Just because you aren't too crazy about his advice doesn't mean he's not a prophet. Make your decision and accept the consequences - just like everyone else. Stop being so critical of President Nelson!
Critical of Biden?
🤣😉😏 just keep it to yourself!
Great vid. Thanks for the disclaimer. I do suggest another video dealing specifically with the occult. This is something exploding among the young women of the Church, as they reject the Gospel and seek other forms of spirituality.
I LOVE this! Thank you!! Your lessons are my very favorite
Thanks for watching!
Absolutely fantastic insights, thoughts & ideas to consider.. especially within the gospel doctrine.. presented plainly, simply & an extremely rewarding "rabbit hole" to explore!!..
I wonder how many other "less explored" scriptural topics are as rewarding as this turned out to be!?.. 🤔
Love the extra facts & definitions that we just don't normally think about..
Wonderful and well advised. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I always enjoy the videos.
Thanks for watching!

As one who has horrible arthritis in my back... What would you have me do? I really would like an answer to understand this..... PAIN is real..
I'd recommend consulting a doctor and taking prescribed medication.
The warnings are about about an abuse of drugs, not anti-drug in its entirety.
I do not think that applies to sorcery. I wouldn't take this video like that. Check out my comment if you like.
I found a natural pain reliever in Coradalis root and others swear by wild lettuce. Herbal stores likely have even more options. I also met a lady at the temple that said 1/4 cup of ground flax seed in her yogurt helped her with arthritic pain in her hands (which were severely distorted). Anyway, these were just ideas if you were interested. 💗
I think you do what you feel is right. Prescription drugs become a problem when you take them and don't need them. If you need them, you take them what you need them for and the proper amount.
@@elbotoface Thank you. I have tried the wild lettuce it didn't do anything. But I will try the flax seeds and the other you mentioned. Thank you for answering me💜
Thank you all of you. I think you are all right and I will stop worrying about it. I do what my doctor says!
Thanks for another great video. I'm always glad to see when a new one is posted. I have a little different opinion about sorcery in these last days.
Webster's 1828 dictionary defines sorcery - SOR'CERY, noun Magic; enchantment; divination by the assistance of evil spirits, or the power of commanding evil spirits.
I'm afraid drugs are just one of many paths that lead to sorcery, where people are using their agency to turn to these dark spirits for whatever advantages they believe they can get. In my opinion anything that weakens the will, or has an addictive nature to it, i.e. gives body power over mind, or causes an impure heart where the Holy Ghost cannot abide with us, is likely enabling these spirits who are far more knowledgeable and powerful than most people believe. Once they are able to entice a person into consenting to their presence, people begin to become familiar with them. I've heard stories of power hungry government leaders (Hitler for example) that sought means for advanced technology, military weapons, bioweapons, etc. from supernatural sources. These spirits have been around at least as long as human life on earth and they have witnessed periods of advanced technology that surpass what we have now and likely barter for the valuable information they have. Some think the UFO phenomena is due to these spirits somehow getting access into our dimension through human help. Satan and these unembodied spirits have always sought to entice, overcome, and possess anyone with a body. I have read a few early Christian writers who think that the mark of the beast is nothing more than the Satanic version of having the Lord's image in our countenance. The mark of the beast being something recognizable in those who are rebelling against God, and turning to the dark evil elements in the unseen world. “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. “ Ephesians 6:12
@J Ann I am glad you said this. About the mark being as in our countenance. That is a viable option
Thank you for your comments. May I share with you my personal testimony? What you say about agency is true. Use of agency can have greater power if used for Gods purposes. Anything that strengthens our faith and Heavenly Fathers’ purpose enable us to draw closer to him. We can and need to be “familiar” in our relationship with him. I recently enjoyed the talk by Wendy Watson Nelson about change and our ability to choose to change by reflecting on the atonement of Jesus Christ. We need to “Rend the veil of unbelief and access the power of the Atonement of Jesus Christ.” Wendy Watson,BYU 5-7-2018 Change It’s’ always a possibility]
“What We choose to embrace to be responsive to is the purest reflection of who we are and what we love” -Joseph Smith
We can truly combat the evil purposes of the world and find comfort in our daily lives. May we all have the image of Jesus Christ in the in our countenances, and become one with him in our actions and purpose.

Unless it got inside.
All the evil of the world
And every kind of sin
Could never damn a human soul
Unless we let it in.
Wow! Just, wow! This puts so many things together for me about the scriptures. You just got another subscriber.
So glad!
I had no idea. That’s pretty scary considering I have to go on meds for chronic pain. But it’s can see what you mean.
Thank you 🙏
Alcohol or pornography are associated drugs....
Spot on! You are obviously a child of the light.
Wow this is so crazy interesting. I’m LDS, born and raised in the church, and I’m a writer. I’m working on a fantasy book series that has people using magic in it. I’ve thought a few times in the past about the times in the scriptures where it mentions magic and sorcery, and it’s always negative/in an evil light. I’ve wondered maybe I shouldn’t write this book, or watch things like Harry Potter/LOTR. But I’ve never ever ever equated magic with drugs. That was so interesting to learn. “People will use magic/drugs in the last day to kill a great many people.” Dude. That’s the Opioid Epidemic! This is so crazy. I’m definetly going to do more research on this. Thank you so much for your video!!!
Could the use/misuse of alcohol be considered a drug? Just wondering.
You just earned yourself a subscriber
This is fantastic! Thank you so much for this, it is very eye opening and I thank you for your experience and understanding.
Thanks for watching!
Always HAPPY To Hear The Disclaimer.--Back In The 1980's Some LDS Used The Words Of Some Book Authors To Support Their Own Church Views.--It Became So Bad At The Time LDS Church Headquarters Had Every Local Church Leader Read A Letter Form Them About This BIG Problem In Sacrament Meetngs. --Authors Write For PROFIT. The Standard Works Should Be Your Guide, NOT The Auhors Views.,,!!
This was excellent! Thank you!!!
Thanks for watching!
Thank you for your work in videos.
Thanks for watching!
Thank! this puts it all together!
Very good video. I’m wondering if I can get some help with the D&C 52:14 reference to a pattern? What is this pattern, I’m not recognizing it in the following verses. Is it to pray and speak with a contrite spirit?
Context i think matters. When this is using the word "Sorceries", it's always in a negative manner. when my doctor gives me a pill, that's authorized and for my good. As long as i stick to what i'm given by my doctor, i'm good to go!
This quote about drugs by Pres. Hinkley makes me angry. Because many of the Latter-Day Saints are actually pushing dangerous drugs. How? Well many doctors, psychiatrists, and other's in the medical profession are prescribing some of the most dangerous drug's known to man. I am talking about legal drugs of course,and many of these are worse than illegal drug's. I mean Hinckleys quote is true, but it so hypocritical to talk about the illegal drug pusher's and leave out the many church members who prescribe drugs that are just as bad and "Warp" minds too. I know because I was prescribed large dose's of zanax by some L.D.S. doctors who were MONSTERS. It took over 10 years to get off this drug and the side effects were disasterous. The damage to the Brain(mind) and body is just as bad as the Illegal drugs. The Saint's are quilty too of this crime!!
Not to mention the effect prescription drugs can have on our spirits. At least that was my experience with antidepressants and a couple other people I have talked to about it said the same thing.
@@jasoneldredge1728 Yes, that's right.
Speak not against the Prophets..and
Save yourself from the judgment of a just God.
@@danielallotey7549 l am not speaking against the prophet s ,only members who call themselves christians and who would destroy their fellow man or church members with these dangerous drugs for a buck$$. Your comment is silly.

I understand that the witchcraft mentioned here refers to the use of drugs and as I understood the third interpretation included magic but in the whole video I only seemed to hear that word once and only quoted but not deepened, so my question can you make a video please that talk about magic, enchantments, spells or mythological beings please? thank you very much, i love your channel
What happened to your cool video about the family and the mouse study???
I changed the title screen to Satan's Playbook. Same video though
I believe the urge we got from the first presidency to be from God. President Nelson and his counselors are men of God, not only when they wear suits are they prophets but by every word and deed that comes out their mouth it is the same as the Lord has stated.
I do believe big pharma are in business for something but the invitation we received last year is from God. Therefore the Prophet does not need to say “this sayeth the Lord” to be a commandment.
Also I really liked in the latest video that this account posted the formula to understand doctrine. First is the scriptures, then what Joseph Smith said and then Prophets and then everyone else.
President Nelson is the Prophet that we need today to lead us safely to where we need to go
One thing to consider though is that "Even the very elect shall be deceived". I think that we can safely presume that the very elect will follow direct commands and warnings from the prophet, so how can they possibly be deceived?
Is the prophet considered to be among the elect as well? Can he be deceived?
I personally believe that there are times he is speaking as prophet and there are times he is speaking as a man. The churches guidance on the vax was never given as a command or part of a prophesy. In any case, I hope that what he says at the end of this video is true, and that the destroying angel will pass us by regardless. And I hope that the new info that respected journals are releasing about the vax aren't correct, because I have family who has taken it. I'd rather be wrong. The more time passes, the worse it looks though.
Love your videos. Thank you for doing this. Just one suggestion: comply with the prophet’s commandment to discard references such as “LDS”. You can use “Latter-day Saint”.
I enjoyed lisen to you talk.thank u
Just because he mentioned the vaccines, I have to comment that anything the Prophet encourages us to take simply cannot be included in this category of "bad drugs", there are a lot of "good drugs" too that we wouldn't survive without and the invention of these surely has been inspired :)
Why can’t it be bad if a prophet suggested it? Where is it written that prophets can’t be wrong or that everything they say or do is correct, good, or doctrinally accurate? The blind obedience is spiritually lazy and does not, in fact, align with LDS doctrine. Many prophets have been wrong, both in scripture and latter-days. We are to heed the words of the Lord’s servants and seek confirmation with the Holy Ghost to know if what they’re saying is from God. Many modern prophets have confirmed this as well.
I was very biased about the Vac even when the prophet said it was ok and he got one. Back in June I told my husband to pray about it because I’m biased (in the university I learned it takes 18 months to make a vac) my husband prayed and received peace. He then saw the letter P everywhere all day. I told him that’s Pfizer and he said I thought it started with an F. I got Pfizer and I have peace about it.
Could someone explain Revelations 9:20 22 means these peope are going to go to the telestial kindom? Thanks. I'm a tennage mameber, and I'm trying to learn more about the gospel
Can some one tell me if sorcery are based on real life
Please because in safari I asked that and there is no answer from that
Great work thank you !
yes - you inspired. If you're watching this - LISTEN to what he's saying - this is truth.
I live in Las Vegas. There are cult bookstores and tarot card readers all over town.
Same..
A coffee shop in Park City, Utah with witch books, and in Barnes & Noble.. both sides being out in the open..
Very very spot on for today's day!
Thanks for watching!
sounds like the opioid epidemic
Can you make a Facebook account and post all your videos there for the missionaries to watch your contact because missionaries only have Facebook
Intriguing thoughts, good study.
Why do I feel sick and empty and lost when I hear of a family member so willing and excited about getting these shots?
If it were a blessed thing given to us to truly help against disease's,
Shouldn't I feel happy for them and also desire this?
And yet I feel as lost and confused as if in some horrible alternative universe, my own mother were to turn her back on the gospel and rail against God with all her might!
It just seems that unimaginable to me.
Is there something wrong with my faith?
I keep receiving blessings so, I don't know.
You are asking a great question. Something feels wrong about taking the shots, doesn’t it!
If you haven’t had the shot(s) yet, I encourage you to get your own answer directly from your Father in Heaven. Hear and Trust Him.
Our great prophet has to speak fondly of the shots; to do otherwise could place many of our fellow saints in even more danger-all over the world.
Don’t trust in the arm of the flesh, or the narrative of the day.
@@jameskboyer thank you.
This last week has been a treasure trove of new information how it's affecting people.
ITS ALL BAD!
Everytime I walk past a place where there giving shots, I just get irritated and angry just for the reason I'm around it.
Well, there are my 2 witnesses.
I hope your faith carries you and your family through 👍🙏
@@jameskboyer also, ldsprepper did a vid called "what the prophet didn't say".
It's very good, if you get a chance.
@@jameskboyer Amen, James
Thank you! Liked and shared with many!
Awesome, thank you!
I am picking up what you are putting down. Just saddens me though. I always believed that the Lord delighted in plainness. Having to go through these translations gymnastics to draw a conclusion really upsets me for some reason. For example, The Mormon 1:19 verse to me always just meant that evil powers prevailed. They worshiped the devil and drew their power from darkness rather than the Lord. Never thought it meant the got high on drugs.
I do not take your video's as gospel thats for sure but I am greateful you have taken the time to spell out some things member and non members do not know or have missed. I have NOTICED alot of members out there putting up video's " as a warning " because I do feel we are in those days. Governments have gone mad or been possessed in a rush to enslave us or bind us to their doctrines and ideology's which do not co-currently align with gospel standard's.
why is the word harm in pharmacy?
So interesting. I wished this video were longer
Thanks for watching!
What do you mean "at some time in the future". ;-) Been going on for a long time brother. Well put.
Thank you.
An eye-opener indeed !

I'm not sure what "the fearful" means in Revelation 21:8. Do you know?
John 3.16 For God loved the world so much that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not die but have eternal life.
Excellent. Thank you.

We already have a serious problem with drug use and cartels. That is probably part of it, or most of this form of sorcery.
People just need to know the difference between pharmakia and marijuana. As one is man made and one is a seed bearing plant that is a main ingredient in anointing oil and is the plant of renown. As we have receptors in our brains for this plant and this plant alone.
Hydrochloric acid. Death cap mushroom. Arsenic. Anthrax. All naturally occurring. All deadly. Just because it's natural doesn't mean it won't kill you. Or, at the very least, bring you very near death. A drug is a substance that interferes with the way our bodies work. Sounds like tons of things out there, "natural" or not.
Funny my husband got to chickens for eggs 🥚 but continues to buy eggs I ask why ?
He replied I don’t trust them ! Me 🤦🏼♀️ he is so brain washed he’s afraid to eat fresh chicken eggs !
Enjoyed.
8:45 from what I understand it’s probably not talking about vaccines nor manufactured viruses, but maybe things like medical marijuana or opioids
I could easily see this refer to opioids or heroin but i would not be surprised if it was an umbrella term referring to many different similar things
Excellent presentation! Gives me much to ponder.
Thanks for watching!
There is a trend towards the use psychedelic's recently, especially certain mushrooms.
How about the legalization of marijuana as “recreational “ medicine
I can certainly see that, yes. Someone recently explained why he vapes; it changed the way his body felt and his state of mind was altered. I forgot the word he used. Loopy, light, but whatever it was, it was something that he craved.
Absolutely.
Great clip. I do think it's wise to follow the prophet, for we know he knows the way.
Perhaps do a video next on why we should follow the prophet
The scriptures teach that we are not to put our trust in any man as far as I have been able to find. Where in the scriptures do we get the idea that we are to follow a man?
@@AntonydenDulk except when the man is the mouthpiece of God - his prophet. We ARE to follow the prophet in all his counsels. The scriptures says, as from God's mouth or the mouth of his prophets, IT IS THE SAME. If you don't believe the prophet, you're living a lie in the Church.
@@AntonydenDulk D&C section 1
@@greentree_ whether by mine own voice or by the voice of my servants, it is the same.
That is the actual quote - notice there is nothing about prophets there. I'm a servant of God so this could write easily apply to me.
@@davidk4869 Doctrine and Covenants one does not teach following the prophet, it teaches that it does not matter if God speaks the word himself or a servant speaks his word since they are the same.
"my word shall not pass away, but shall all be fulfilled, whether by mine own voice or by the voice of my servants, it is the same."
Notice that it starts with "my word" so it only applies to words that a servant has received from God.
All who receive God's word and follow it are his servants, it is not limited to one person. There is also no requirement to follow that servant in that statement, God is merely saying that he will fulfill his word no matter who speaks his word.
Am I missing something in the section?
I don't mind going out on a limb. If the gods that you have a direct relationship with is not malevolent and/or ones mentioned in the keys of Solomon/books of Enoch etc etc. You have to have to ask your self am I giving willing to the the god/gods that I have a direct relationship with? And If so is the/,they god/gods a malevolent force.
Very well done
Thanks for watching!
As a sorcerer, I define "sorcery" or more generally magick, broadly...as the actions of casting spells, performing rituals, working with entities outside of those proscribed by the bible, or imposing one's psychic will, to manifest change in the physical realm, or to divine answers for that which is unknown. This can be done in concert with mind altering substances, as was historically done by shamans, medicine men, priests, and sorcerers in ancient times. I must say I am not a fan of a bible that purports to have an all loving god, but if you disobey his dictates, you get to burn in a lake of fire for all eternity. So trillions upon trillions of years for say a lifespan of 70 years of indiscretion. It would seem to me this is a human contrivance rather than divine truth.
Psychedelics are having a comeback. Specifically mushrooms. I know a lot of people that left the church who are interested or doing Ayahuasca. You take the tea (it has DMT) and a shaman will guide you toward healing.
It really is Interesting that many are seeking “spirituality” through these things.
Not all knowledge is bad. Depens how ones individual use it.
Drugs destroy so many lives is appropriate warnings would be found in the scriptures.
