🚨 BREAKING: Elder David A. Bednar Calls for a “REVOLUTION” in How We Teach the Gospel?! 🚨

What if I told you that one of the most senior apostles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints just shook up everything we thought we knew about baptism, repentance, and the Gift of the Holy Ghost? 😱

That’s exactly what happened in California during an unannounced three-day leadership training where Elder David A. Bednar showed up without warning and left everyone stunned. According to eyewitnesses who sent me detailed notes, Elder Bednar wasn’t giving a polished, pre-approved General Conference talk—he was teaching raw, Spirit-driven truth in real time. And what he said is unlike anything you’ve heard before…

🔥 He told the youth that most of us have been teaching baptism WRONG.
🔥 He declared that repentance is not a checklist, but a true change of heart.
🔥 He insisted that baptism without the Holy Ghost “is worth NOTHING”—and even said you might as well “baptize a bag of sand” if the Spirit is not received.
🔥 He boldly called for “a revolution” in how we prepare the rising generation for the Gift of the Holy Ghost.

But that’s just the beginning… Elder Bednar also revealed:

✨ If you’re striving to keep covenants and follow Christ, you cannot go amiss—His grace will cover your errors.
✨ The Atonement empowers us as God’s agents—His stewards—so that when we act in His name, the work cannot fail.
✨ Trials don’t come from God—they come from a fallen world. But through covenant faithfulness, Christ will strengthen, deliver, and ease our burdens.
✨ Repentance brings divine healing power into your life. Anything short of a change of heart is a mockery of Christ.
✨ What we DO is not fully who we ARE—but our choices shape what we BECOME.

This is rare, behind-the-scenes access to an apostle speaking directly, unfiltered, and by the Spirit. And it raises provocative questions:

👉 Have we been teaching our children false doctrine about baptism and repentance?
👉 Are we missing the deeper power of the Holy Ghost in our daily lives?
👉 Is this the start of a larger shift in the Church as we prepare for the Second Coming of Jesus Christ?

⚡ In this video, I’ll break down Elder Bednar’s stunning answers to the youth’s toughest questions, unpack his surprising scriptural insights, and explain why this message could change everything about how we live—and teach—the gospel going forward.

🔥 Brothers and Sisters, welcome back to Rise Zion! My name is Seth—and despite the heaviness of the headlines, I pray you’re having a blessed Friday.

As you know, we’ve been following the breaking news: authorities have now arrested the assassin who killed Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University. Out of respect, we won’t mention the murderer’s name here. Instead, we will focus on what matters most: truth, light, peace, and prophecy.

🙏 First, thank you to my audience for your prayers, your faith, and your commitment to the Prophet’s repeated counsel to be peacemakers. I am proud of you. The world’s eyes are now fixed on Utah and on the Saints. How we respond—non-violently, faithfully, boldly—will set the tone nationally and globally.

But here’s the question: Why now? Why September? Our prophet has urged peacemaking prophetically at least seven different times in recent weeks. Could it be that Satan is raging, using darkness as a smokescreen to distract us from a greater light about to break forth?

⚔️ Like Captain Moroni, we must think strategically. What is Satan trying to stop?

📜 September is a month of signs. Many Christians are predicting a rapture this year, but as Latter-day Saints we know the truth: there will be no pre-tribulation rapture. Instead, there will be a quickening (D&C 88)—a transformation of our bodies, minds, and spirits as we prepare to build Zion and welcome the Lord.

🌄 And now, consider this:

On September 21, Elder David A. Bednar will rededicate the Hill Cumorah, the exact anniversary of Moroni’s first visit to Joseph Smith in 1823.

Could this sacred rededication mark the beginning of new light, even new scripture, coming forth?

Could it be that Satan rages now to distract from what heaven is preparing?

Elder James E. Talmage once prophesied in 1916 that some then living would see the records of the Lost Tribes come forth. Those people would be over 100 years old today. If his prophecy is literal, we are standing on the threshold.

📖 Could the long-awaited sealed portion of the Book of Mormon be revealed? Could President Nelson, already demonstrating gifts of tongues, be prepared to translate? Or could The Family: A Proclamation to the World finally cross the finish line and be canonized as scripture?

Think about it:

The Proclamation was first read on September 23, 1995—30 years ago, on the eve of Rosh Hashanah.

It has already been unanimously signed by the First Presidency and Quorum of the Twelve.

All that remains is sustaining vote by the membership.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Could this be the turning point? In the wake of political violence, would you raise your hand boldly to sustain the truths of family, gender, covenant, and eternal identity? Would you stand as witnesses of Christ, even when the world calls such truth controversial and dangerous?

Charlie Kirk stood for freedom, faith, and family. His murder is an attack not only on life, but on speech, religion, and the God-given right to defend truth. Could his death be a marker, a sign that the Saints must rise, unite, and prepare for new scripture?

✨ These are the days of fulfillment—the fulness of times. Light is breaking forth. Satan rages because he knows what’s coming. Will you be ready?

Questions for You:

Do you believe the Hill Cumorah rededication signals something greater?

If new scripture is revealed, what do you think it might contain?

Would you sustain The Family: A Proclamation to the World as official scripture if presented this General Conference?

09/11/2025

Brothers and Sisters, today we stand at a turning point in our nation’s history. The air is heavy, the spirit is somber, and many of us are still processing the tragic and shocking political assassination of Charlie Kirk at UVU. What does this moment mean? What patterns are unfolding before our eyes? And—most importantly—what does God expect of us right now?

In this video, I share my raw observations of the aftermath and reveal the tactics of the adversary that are being unleashed in real time. If we can discern the enemy’s illusions of division, we can guard our souls and rise above the traps of anger, contention, and chaos.

We cannot afford to fall for Satan’s lies that pit left against right, citizen against citizen, or even Saint against Saint. The prophets have been warning us—over and over again—to be peacemakers. President Nelson, the apostles, and even Elder Christofferson—just hours before the attack—reminded us that vengeance is the Lord’s.

And yet… what do we see? Vigils turning violent. Social media consumed by judgment and outrage. The enemy whispering in our ears that we must strike back. But this is the hour where the eyes of the world are upon Utah, upon the Saints, and upon every follower of Christ.

👉 Will we descend into the same rage that consumes the world?
👉 Or will we rise as a Zion people—calm, courageous, full of peace and power through Jesus Christ?

I dive into:
⚔️ The dangerous illusion of division being weaponized against us
🕊️ The prophetic call to be peacemakers in perilous times
🙏 How prayer and daily reliance on God are our weapons of strength
🔥 Why Charlie Kirk’s death may represent more than just a tragedy—it may be a turning point for the future of America

I also share the prophetic testimony of Gordon B. Hinckley in the wake of 9/11, reminding us that even in days of darkness and violence, there is no need to fear when our trust is in God. These are perilous times, yes—but they are also the very days in which God is preparing a pure people to serve Him in righteousness.

💡 This is not just a commentary on a tragic event. This is a call to action. We must rise, repent, and unite as disciples of Christ. We must resist the adversary’s snares and instead become the influence for good the world so desperately needs.

🔥 Is President Nelson’s Call to Be a Peacemaker a Dangerous Warning—or a Prophetic Wake-Up Call? 🔥

Over the past week, something shocking has unfolded. Just before his 101st birthday, President Russell M. Nelson has repeated the same message seven times: Become a peacemaker. Seven—the biblical number of completion. Coincidence… or prophecy?

And on his birthday, he doubled down: “God is our Father. Jesus is the Christ. His Atonement allows us to repent and return to God. We will find joy as we think celestial, follow the covenant path, and please, the world needs peacemakers—so be kind.”

But here’s the alarming part—this call to peace has ignited controversy among Latter-day Saints themselves. Social media is on fire. Some Saints feel uneasy, even betrayed, claiming the Prophet is urging passive acceptance of society’s moral collapse.

Critics are asking: Is the Prophet telling us to lay down our arms in the cultural war?
Others point to the fiery warnings of Ezra Taft Benson, who thundered that the Saints must “warn the wicked” and never compromise truth.

⚡So here’s the question tearing at the heart of the Church right now:
Are President Nelson and President Benson in contradiction?
One calls for peace. The other calls for bold, fearless warning. Which path does God expect us to walk in these last days?

Elder Benson declared:

“As watchmen on the tower of Zion, it is our obligation and right… to speak out against current evils—evils that strike at the very foundation of all we hold dear.”

But President Nelson is just as relentless, warning again and again that contention is destroying us from the inside. Is this repetition of seven warnings his way of clearing his hands before God—leaving us fully responsible from now on?

The tension could not be clearer:

Do we “turn the other cheek” while evil spreads unchecked?

Or do we cry repentance, risking division, anger, and persecution?

Are we misinterpreting peacemaking as passivity, when in reality it may be the boldest resistance of all?

The ancient Prophet Ezekiel warned that if the watchman fails to blow the trumpet, the blood of the wicked will be required at his hands. Doctrine and Covenants 101 echoes this: “All who are found upon the watchtower… shall be saved.”

This isn’t optional. It’s life or death.

In this episode, we break open Ezra Taft Benson’s fiery talk “Watchman, Warn the Wicked!” and place it side by side with President Nelson’s repeated prophetic charge. The results are unsettling—but also faith-building. Because when we understand both voices together, the picture becomes clear:

✅ To be a true peacemaker does not mean compromise.
✅ To avoid contention does not mean silence.
✅ To follow the Prophet means standing boldly for truth without becoming enslaved to the spirit of violence.

We also dive deep into the misunderstood command of Christ to “turn the other cheek.” Far from being passive submission, this was a radical, nonviolent defiance of evil—a third way between cowardice and retaliation. Could this be the very strategy the Prophet is urgently pressing on us now?

Brothers and sisters, this is a wake-up call. Rome fell for the same sins now corroding America and the world: moral decay, appeasement, and an apathetic middle class. The only hope is for disciples of Christ to rise up, cleanse themselves of complacency, and fulfill their watchman duties—without falling into the devil’s trap of endless contention.

🙏 The Prophet’s plea for peacemakers is not weakness. It is a test.
⚔️ President Benson’s charge to warn the wicked is not cruelty. It is courage.
Together, these messages are the survival manual for the last days.

👉 Will you heed the warning? Or will you choose silence and compromise in the name of false peace?

🔥It's Time for a SPIRITUAL Revolution of the SPIRIT! Elder Bednar Says!🔥

🔥 Elder David A. Bednar just shook things up in California with an unplanned, Spirit-led visit—and what he said has the potential to start a SPIRITUAL REVOLUTION. This wasn’t General Conference. This wasn’t a planned Stake Conference. This was Elder Bednar speaking by the Spirit, and his words cut deep, challenging members and leaders alike to rise up and stop living beneath our spiritual privileges.

📜 Thanks to a listener who attended and took detailed notes, we now have a rare glimpse into what Elder Bednar is teaching behind the pulpit in smaller, more intimate settings—and his remarks are nothing short of revolutionary.

Here are some of the most provocative things Elder Bednar said:

✨ “Start a revolution.” — Not political, but spiritual. The youth of this generation must rise in purity, covenantal power, and sanctification through the Holy Ghost.
✨ “You may as well baptize a bag of sand.” — Baptism alone is worthless without the Gift of the Holy Ghost. This is the doctrine Joseph Smith emphasized as the very thing that sets The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints apart from all others.
✨ “The Primary song I know when I am baptized my sins are washed away is false doctrine.” — Elder Bednar corrected this by teaching that it is not baptism that cleanses us—it is repentance and the sanctifying power of the Holy Ghost.
✨ “Agency is not to do whatever you want.” — He reminded leaders and parents to stop excusing sin in the name of “agency.” True agency is the power to choose God and covenant loyalty.
✨ “Invite and create holy experiences, not performances.” — Talks, baptisms, and youth activities must move beyond ritual and entertainment. Our children need to experience the Spirit, not just sit through a program.

💡 Elder Bednar tied these teachings to Doctrine & Covenants 88, Moses 6, and even Ephesians 1, showing that baptism, repentance, the Holy Ghost, and temple covenants are all one divine pattern meant to prepare us for the Second Comforter and ultimately the presence of Jesus Christ Himself.

He didn’t just fine-tune doctrine—he issued a warning:
➡️ Many of us are living beneath our privileges.
➡️ We are neglecting to teach our youth correct doctrine.
➡️ We are mistaking performances for experiences, and entertainment for conversion.

This meeting wasn’t just inspiring—it was a call to arms. A call for a generation of covenant keepers who can recognize the voice of the Lord for themselves.

⚔️ The revolution begins in our homes. It begins with how we teach our children about baptism, repentance, and the Holy Ghost. It begins when we stop excusing sin, stop abdicating parental responsibility, and rise up as disciples who live by revelation.

✨ Something unprecedented just happened… ✨

Every Apostle of Jesus Christ — and even the Prophet himself — released simultaneous YouTube messages only WEEKS before October 2025 General Conference. At first glance, these might look like separate reflections. But when studied together, something astonishing emerges: a unified prophetic theme pointing us directly toward the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. ⏳👑

As I carefully analyzed these inspired videos, I discovered repeating phrases, imagery, and testimonies that were too perfectly aligned to be coincidence. While each Apostle was led individually by the Spirit, their combined voices form a prophetic mosaic — a roadmap showing us how to prepare ourselves, our families, and the Church for Christ’s return.

🚨 Make no mistake: This is no ordinary upload cycle. This was divinely orchestrated. The timing is not random. The Apostles and Prophet are sounding a trumpet before General Conference — and if we listen, we’ll recognize the same call to action echoing across ALL of their messages.

Here’s what we uncovered together in this video:

⚡ Part 1: The Restoration & Second Coming
The Apostles remind us the Restoration is ongoing, not past tense. From Joseph Smith’s First Vision to priesthood keys and temple power, the Restoration is the foundation preparing us for the Lord’s return.

🌟 Part 2: Light vs. Darkness
Again and again, we hear it: spiritual darkness is intensifying. But the light of Christ and His gospel shines brighter than ever before. Apostles invoke lighthouses, temples, and sacred visions to show us how to withstand the storms ahead.

⏩ Part 3: Hastening the Work
Missionary work, temple dedications, global gatherings — all accelerating. Elder Stevenson even pointed to the coming decade (leading to 2034) as a time of “seminal events” unlike anything we’ve seen before. Could this urgency be tied to the very events of the Second Coming?

🏛️ Part 4: Temples & Covenants
Temples are Zion’s training grounds and refuges. Our covenants bind us to Christ, enabling us to withstand tribulations. The Apostles testify that the temple is where we find the courage to stand firm.

🛡️ Part 5: “Doubt Not, Fear Not”
Elder Andersen, Elder Gong, Elder Cook, and others reassure us: peace and power come through Jesus Christ, even in tribulation. Fear dissolves when faith in Christ becomes unshakable.

👣 Part 6: “Follow Me” — Becoming Like Him
President Nelson, President Oaks, and others call us to unity, civility, and discipleship. As contention escalates in the world, the Lord’s people are commanded to become peacemakers, disciples who follow Him in word and deed.

📌 When taken individually, these videos might seem like “dots” on a canvas. But as Elder Uchtdorf beautifully said, when we step back, we see the full picture. The Master Artist is preparing His Church for His glorious return.

🔥 Friends, the Apostles and Prophet are not whispering — they are SHOUTING with one unified voice. The Second Coming is nearer than we realize. The question is: will we hear their call and prepare?

🙏 Join us as we walk through their exact words and explore how these Spirit-directed messages create a prophetic pattern guiding us right now.

09/04/2025

✨ On August 19th, 2025, something unforgettable happened at the Missionary Training Center in Provo, Utah. Thousands of missionaries gathered to hear Elder Neil L. Andersen of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, but what unfolded stunned every witness and will echo as a modern-day testimony that God is still a God of Miracles. 🙏🔥

Moments into the devotional, after the choir had sung and Elder Andersen began speaking, the entire sound system failed. The microphone went silent. Technology gave out. Yet instead of chaos, something sacred filled the room. Elder Andersen calmly invited the choir to sing again. Missionaries joined in, and the Spirit descended with fire. What happened next defied natural explanation—those sitting in the very back testified they could not only hear Elder Andersen’s unaided voice but felt it pierce their hearts. 💡

👉 As one missionary declared: “Even though he had no mic, the Spirit carried his message.”
👉 Another said: “God needed us to listen—and He made sure that we did.”

This was no accident. Elder Andersen’s entire message that night was about faith—how it is tried, why it matters, and how it unlocks the miracles of heaven. The timing could not have been more divine. Just months earlier, Elder Andersen told mission leaders worldwide:

“Miracles should not only be hoped for—they should be expected.”

📖 Moroni 7:37 reminds us:
“Behold I say unto you, Nay; for it is by faith that miracles are wrought; and it is by faith that angels appear and minister unto men.”

The MTC miracle teaches us three eternal lessons:
1️⃣ God fills the gap when we are weak. Just as Paul wrote, “My strength is made perfect in weakness.” (2 Cor. 12:9). When the microphone failed, heaven amplified.
2️⃣ Faith is magnified in community. As missionaries and choir sang, their united faith drew down the Spirit in power.
3️⃣ Obedience precedes miracles. Just as Jesus always asked for an act of faith before performing miracles, Elder Andersen invited the missionaries to act—and heaven responded.

⚡ This moment was not about a broken microphone—it was about a living God who still manifests His power today, in 2025, just as He did anciently. It was about a generation of missionaries learning that when they step into the vineyard, Christ will be with them.

President Nelson has promised:
“In coming days, we will see the greatest manifestations of the Savior’s power that the world has ever seen.” 🌎✨

That night at the MTC was a glimpse of that promise unfolding. And it’s not just for missionaries—it’s for you. Miracles will guard, guide, and sustain us as we prepare for the Second Coming of Jesus Christ.

💬 I invite you to reflect: When has God filled the gaps in your life? What miracles have you seen when you acted in faith? Share your testimony in the comments so others can be strengthened.

✨ Hello everyone and welcome back to Rise Zion! My name is Seth, and I hope you’re all having a wonderful Wednesday!

Today we’re diving into a truly historic moment: President Russell M. Nelson, prophet and President of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, is turning 101 years old in just a few days! The Church recently released a powerful new video across its social media channels in honor of his incredible milestone.

Think about this for a moment: President Nelson has lived through 52% of the entire history of the Church since its restoration in 1830. His life is not just remarkable in length—it’s remarkable in divine purpose. In fact, as I’ve studied his life and words, I’ve started to notice patterns—repeated themes, carefully chosen phrases, and prophetic layers of meaning—that testify that God had a special purpose for his life from the very beginning.

Which raises a bold and fascinating question: Could there be divine purpose behind President Nelson’s long life?

For decades, President Nelson has spoken with clarity, power, and consistency. His words often strike with hidden depth—sentences that sound simple at first but unfold into eternal principles upon reflection. He has repeatedly directed the Church’s focus on preparing to meet Jesus Christ at His Second Coming. Some believe his long life may itself be providential—that God preserved him to stand as a steady beacon in an era of accelerating last-day events. Could President Nelson live to see the return of the Savior? Could his mission be tied directly to preparing us for the greatest event in history?

In this video, we’ll analyze the Church’s new birthday tribute, where President Nelson reflects on what he’s learned in his century of life:

✅ Heavenly Father’s plan is fabulous — rich with blessings and eternal opportunities.
✅ Agency matters — the choices we make determine not just our mortal happiness but our eternal destiny.
✅ To “Think Celestial” means aligning our daily actions with eternal perspective.
✅ To “Begin with the End in Mind” means making the Celestial Kingdom our ultimate goal.

We’ll also connect this new message to President Nelson’s earlier teachings, including his 1984 talk Begin with the End in Mind, where he first taught principles that have become the foundation of his prophetic ministry. From his groundbreaking career as a heart surgeon to his decades of service as an apostle and prophet, his entire life seems to testify of divine order—woven with scripture, law, and eternal truth.

What does this mean for us? That our lives, too, can become testimonies of God’s plan. Just as President Nelson’s story reflects divine design, our own stories can align with Heavenly Father’s purposes when we faithfully follow Jesus Christ.

We’ll explore:

How prophetic counsel like Think Celestial carries literal, eternal meaning.

Why wickedness never was happiness, and why only Celestial living prepares us for eternal joy.

How the Atonement of Jesus Christ makes the Father’s perfect plan possible for each of us.

Why this season of prophetic emphasis on the Second Coming is a sign we must spiritually prepare now.

Whether or not President Nelson will be alive to witness the Lord’s return remains to be seen. But what we can know for certain is that his prophetic ministry is meant to prepare us for that glorious event.

As President Nelson declared: “We do not know the day or the hour of His coming. But I do know that the Lord is prompting me to urge us to get ready for that ‘great and dreadful day.’”

Brothers and sisters, this is not just about celebrating a birthday—it’s about recognizing the divine purpose behind the Prophet’s life and the eternal plan God has for each of us.
