As an aside to what I wrote in The God Makers, It drove me into a state of severe disbelief and utter frustration to have seen so many Christian leaders leaping into the Mitt Romney camp. Pat Robertson, who had him as the main speaker at Regent University graduation that year, Jay Sekulow, head of the ACLJ, endorsed Romney and said that Romney would appoint constructionist judges, and that he (Sekulow) had the opportunity to observe Romney and knew that he was for real.
Lou Sheldon, a well-known evangelical Presbyterian minister and conservative lobbyist in Washington, endorsed former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney for the 2008 Republican presidential nomination. Sheldon, the outspoken chairman of the Traditional Values Coalition, had agreed to serve as one of the co-chairs of the � ���"Romney for President Faith and Values Steering Committee.� �� �
Mark DeMoss is president of the DeMoss Group (an Atlanta-based public relations firm that works primarily with evangelical organizations) and the author of The Little Red Book of Wisdom. He also endorsed Gov. Romney for President of the United States. DeMoss became a national, unpaid emissary for Romney, making his case before Southern Baptists and other evangelicals. He organized an introductory meeting that October that included Jerry Falwell and Franklin Graham. He also put Romney in front of the attendees at the annual National Religious Broadcasters convention in Orlando.
Continued from The God Makers:
There is every reason to believe that the new President would immediately begin to gather around him increasing numbers of zealous Temple Mormons in strategic places at the highest levels of government. A crisis similar to the one which Mormon prophecies � ���"foretold� �� � occurs, in which millions of Mormons with their year's supply of food, guns, and ammunition play a key role. It would be a time of excitement and zealous effort by the � ���"Saints� �� � to fulfill Joseph Smith's and Brigham Young's � ���"prophecy� �� �:
The time will come when the destiny of the nation will hang upon a single thread. At that critical juncture, this people will step forth and save it from the threatened destruction.
Not only does Mormonism predict the � ���"saving� �� � of America, but the precedent for an attempted takeover by force or subterfuge through political means has been set by the founding � ���"Prophet� �� � himself. In 1834 Joseph Smith organized an army and marched toward Independence, Missouri, to � ���"redeem Zion.� �� � In spite of a humiliating surrender to the Missouri Militia that proved his bold � ���"Prophecies� �� � false, the � ���"Prophet� �� � later formed the � ���"Nauvoo Legion� �� � and commissioned himself a Lieutenant-General to command it. Lyman L. Woods stated:
Joseph Smith was not only the ordained King on earth, but he ran for President of the United States just before his death, at which time Mormon missionaries across the country became � ���"a vast force of political [power].� �� � Today's Church leaders are urging Mormons to prepare themselves for the coming crisis in order to succeed where past � ���"Saints� �� � have failed. A major article in the LDS Ensign magazine about being prepared included this oft-repeated warning reminder:
The commandment to reestablish Zion became for the Saints of Joseph Smith's day the central goal of the church. But it was a goal the Church did not realize because its people were not fully prepared.
Going back to our hypothetical crisis, what Mormons unsuccessfully attempted against impossible odds in the past, they might very well accomplish with much better odds in this future scenario. Under cover of the national and international crisis, the Mormon President of the United States acts boldly and decisively to assume dictatorial powers. With the help of The Brethren and Mormons everywhere, he appears to save America and becomes a national hero. At this time he is made Prophet and President of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and the Mormon Kingdom of God, while still President of the United States. There is no provision in the Constitution to prevent this.
With the government largely in the hands of increasing numbers of Mormon [and Masonic] appointees at all levels throughout the United States, the Constitutional prohibition against the establishment of a state church would no longer be enforceable. Mormon prophecies and the curse upon the United States government in revenge for the blood of Joseph and Hyrum Smith would seemingly have been fulfilled. In effect, the United States would have become a theocracy exactly as planned by The Brethren, completing the first step in the Mormon takeover of the world. LDS President John Taylor boasted of it 100 years ago:
Let us now notice our political position in the world. What are we going to do? We are going to possess the earth . . . and reign over it for ever and ever. Now, ye Kings and Emperors help yourselves if you can. This is the truth and it may as well be told at this time as at any other. There's a good time coming, Saints, a good time coming!
A More Likely Scenario
While the above presents an extremely disturbing possibility, it may seem highly speculative and improbable. There is another scenario, however, which is equally disturbing and much more likely. It arises from the fact that Mormonism is actual part of something much larger.
We have already noted that the � ���"revelations� �� � that Joseph Smith received, far from being unique, were in fact very similar to the basic philosophy underlying many occult groups and secret revolutionary societies. Thus far in history, these numerous occult/revolutionary organizations have remained largely separate and in competition with one another.
If something should happen to unite them, and at the same time their beliefs should gain worldwide acceptance, a new and unimaginably powerful force for world revolution would have come into existence. There is increasing evidence of a new and growing secular/religious ecumenism persuasive enough to accomplish this unprecedented and incalculably powerful coalition.
It could be the means of creating the one-world government that has not only been the long-standing hope and plan of The Brethren and many other occult/revolutionary leaders, but is increasingly gaining a wide acceptance through New Age networks as the only viable option to a nuclear holocaust and/or ecological collapse.
Let's review this once more from the top before we thread Mitt Romney's bid for the Presidency into the mix.
