The book of Revelations can only be interpreted by the power of the Holy Ghost.
It is plain, simple obedience to the laws and ordinances of the gospel that blow through the sectarian world.
There is to b revelation after the day of John, after New Testament times, after the gospel given by Jesus had been lost; the heavens once again shall rain down righteousness as in the days of old. It is the gospel, the plan of salvation, the power of God unto salvation, the very thing preached by Jesus and John, by Peter and Paul and all the holy apostles, which shall ve revealed by the angel. The gospel is everlasting; it is without beginning of days or end of years; it is the same plan of salvation always and forever. It was had anciently; it shall continue to all eternity. It's terms and conditions apply on this earth and on all the creators of God. It saved Adam and Enoch; it guided Abraham and Moses; it was the standard heralded by John and Matthew; and its truths were to come again to Joseph Smith and latter-day Israel. It shall come by angelic ministration. Holy beings shall come from God's presence to bring again his eternal truths. The heavens, long sealed, shall be opened.
Four destroying angels holding power over the four quarters of the earth until the servants of God are sealed in their foreheads, which signifies sealing the blessings upon their heads, meaning the everlasting covenant, thereby making their calling and election sure. When a seal is put upon the father and the mother, it secures their posterity, so that they cannot be lost, but will be saved by virtue of the covenant of their father and mother.
-Bruce R. McConkie
In the gospel of Jesus Christ you have the help from both sides of the veil and you must never forget that. When disappointment and discouragement strike, you must remember and never forget that if our eyes could be opened we would see horses and chariots of fire as far as the eye can see, riding at reckless speed to come to our protection. They will always be there, these armies of heaven, in defense of Abraham's seed. -Jeffrey R. Holland
