Growing Zion - a perspective - Gordon & McKay Platt

  Growing Zion - a perspective In the Growing Zion podcast Denver said, “And the challenge for Zion is always the first one: The seed. “ Some gardeners begin every garden by planting seed in the ground. That has several disadvantages:  1 – you can’t begin until after the last frost.  2 – you have a shorter growing season. 3—not all seeds are viable,  4—the soil may be poor Here’s our calculations on the growing Zion method from seed described in DS’s 2017 podcasts.  Start with 25 families, add one every six months (now that’s Polyannish optimism), and then once you hit 100 split the number into two groups of 50 and add one to each group of 50 every six months etc. until the total number is 800. How long would that take?  ———————————- Phase 1: From 25 to 100– 37.5 years Phase 2: From 100 to 200- 25 years Phase 3: From 200 to 400 - 25 years Phase 4: From 400 to 800 - 25 years Answer: 112.5 years to get to 800 families  But what if you plant the seed...

  The Name  Written as a memorial 20 years after the publication of The Second Comforter-April 6, 2006 McKay Platt Introduction: The title, “the Name” is intentional. This paper is about “the Name”, not “naming” or “names”, although we will touch on those topics as well. It is about a somewhat mysterious religious concept, scattered throughout the revelations. I understand enough to introduce this mystery. Not enough to elucidate it. With that caveat let’s look at names and naming. Naming:  Of the estimated 7.77 million species of animals, and countless plants, fungi, protozoa and bacteria naming is unique to men.  Adam named the animals and subsequent men have named every other known animal, plant, fungus, protozoan and bacterium. To identify a previously unknown species and name it is considered a great privilege in the scientific community.  Of the 8.3 billion humans on earth today and the estimated 117 billion since the dawn of human existence, presum...

Preface to volume 9 of Teachings of Denver Snuffer

The Lord intends to introduce us to the oceans of truth He has in store for those who love Him and purify themselves before Him, to whom He grants the privilege of seeing and knowing for themselves. Think of it: So many worlds have been organized by Jesus Christ that they are “without number”—and many of them have “passed away” after their organization.  From what we can observe with our present technology, there are now trillions, even more, quadrillions, yet even more, stars. Our present state of science confirms our Lord’s creations are beyond our ability to count, more so if we consider all that have passed away alongside all now rolling into creation.  To organize an earth with the elements needed for life, it requires an almost infinite amount of time to produce the necessary elements. The simplest elements fuse in stars, changing from hydrogen nuclei to helium nuclei and releasing energy. It requires a star to run through its entire life and collapse into a supernova ex...
