133:4.4

Then he said to me, “I revealed myself in a bush and talked with Moses when my people were in bondage in Egypt. I sent him, and he led my people out of Egypt. I brought him up to Mount Sinai, where I kept him with me for many days. I told him many wondrous things, and showed him the secrets of the times and the end of the seasons. I commanded him, saying, ‘You shall publish these openly, and these you shall hide.’ Now I say to you: Lay up in your heart the signs that I have shown, the dreams that you have seen, and the interpretations which you have heard; for you will be taken away from men, and from now on you will live with my Son and with those who are like you, until the times have ended. For the world has lost its youth, and the times begin to grow old. For the age is divided into twelve parts, and ten parts of it are already gone, even the half of the tenth part. There remain of it two parts after the middle of the tenth part. Now therefore set your house in order, reprove your people, comfort the lowly among them, and instruct those of them who are wise, and now renounce the life that is corruptible, and let go of the mortal thoughts, cast away from you the burdens of man, put off now your weak nature, lay aside the thoughts that are most grievous to you, and hurry to escape from these times. For worse evils than those which you have seen happen will be done after this. For look how much the world will be weaker through age, so much that more evils will increase on those who dwell in it. For the truth will withdraw itself further off, and falsehood will be near. For now the eagle which you saw in vision hurries to come.”

Then he answered me, “Things present are for those who live now, and things to come for those who will live hereafter. For you come far short of being able to love my creature more than I. But you have compared yourself to the unrighteous. Don’t do that! Yet in this will you be admirable to the Most High, in that you have humbled yourself, as it becomes you, and have not judged yourself among the righteous, so as to be much glorified. For many grievous miseries will fall on those who dwell in the world in the last times, because they have walked in great pride. But understand for yourself, and for those who inquire concerning the glory of those like you, because paradise is opened to you. The tree of life is planted. The time to come is prepared. Plenteousness is made ready. A city is built. Rest is allowed. Goodness is perfected, and wisdom is perfected beforehand. The root of evil is sealed up from you. Weakness is done away from you, and death is hidden. Hell and corruption have fled into forgetfulness. Sorrows have passed away, and in the end, the treasure of immortality is shown. Therefore ask no more questions concerning the multitude of those who perish. For when they had received liberty, they despised the Most High, scorned his law, and forsook his ways. Moreover they have trodden down his righteous, and said in their heart that there is no God—even knowing that they must die. For as the things I have said will welcome you, so thirst and pain which are prepared for them. For the Most High didn’t intend that men should be destroyed, but those who are created have themselves defiled the name of him who made them, and were unthankful to him who prepared life for them. Therefore my judgment is now at hand, which I have not shown to all men, but to you, and a few like you.” Then I answered,

He answered me, “Measure diligently within yourself. When you see that a certain part of the signs are past, which have been told you beforehand, then will you understand that it is the very time in which the Most High will visit the world which was made by him. When earthquakes, tumult of peoples, plans of nations, wavering of leaders, and confusion of princes are seen in the world, then will you understand that the Most High spoke of these things from the days that were of old, from the beginning. For just as with everything that is made in the world, the beginning is evident and the end manifest, so also are the times of the Most High: the beginnings are manifest in wonders and mighty works, and the end in effects and signs. Everyone who will be saved, and will be able to escape by his works, or by faith by which they have believed, will be preserved from the said perils, and will see my salvation in my land and within my borders, which I have sanctified for myself from the beginning. Then those who now have abused my ways will be amazed. Those who have cast them away despitefully will live in torments. For as many as in their life have received benefits, and yet have not known me, and as many as have scorned my law, while they still had liberty and when an opportunity to repent was open to them, didn’t understand, but despised it, must know it in torment after death. Therefore don’t be curious any longer how the ungodly will be punished, but inquire how the righteous will be saved, those who the world belongs to, and for whom the world was created.”
