According to Joseph Smith, the Garden of Eden's physical location was not in the Levant but in the new world - it's actual placement in the area now encompassed by Jackson County, Missouri, which is now part of metropolitan Kansas City. The City of Independence, Missouri is considered the Mormon terrestrial center and the Temple and International Headquarters of the Church of Christ is the center of that center. This Temple is a Mormon Church although it is separate from the Church of the Latter Day Saints and has mainstreamed itself somewhat in line with more standard Protestant denominations. In keeping with some other Mormon temples the Church of Christ - International HQ's is quite spectacular in idea and design. Joseph Smith, as prophet of the peoples of the New World, declared that the New Jerusalem of Zion would be founded here. He also declared that Jesus Christ would physically descend to this earth at that precise location to actualize the new millennium. For his beliefs, Joseph Smith was murdered along with his brother Hyrum at Carthage, Illinois in June, 1844. The two were attacked by an enraged mob of faithful Christians while the brothers were in jail awaiting trial on various accusations. He should have expected nothing less since Christians have always murdered those whom they oppose but cannot convert. It started with Helena, mother of the Roman emperor Constantine and has been an honored practice since then. Therefore wake up you Hindu demon worshipers! Cover yourself with the blood of Jesus before they murder you too. Because even if they don't get you while alive, in the bardo their blood drinking YHVH surely will. heh, heh Kenotic bill

Jesus Christ himself will rule there. (See 3 Nephi 21:2325.) The Lord said the city will be built in the state of Missouri in the United States (see D&C 84:34). "These are only a few of the signs that the Lord has given us. The scriptures describe many more." But the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi is claiming some place in Kansas as the World Capital of Peace. Hmmm. Kansas and Missouri are right next to each other. Could it be that one of them is just off by a couple a hundred miles? __._,_ Recent Activity 1 New Members 2 New Photos Visit Your Group Moderator Central An online resource for moderators of Yahoo!
