47. Becoming More Awakened
Posted 4-3-2017
Hello my friends,
This is the day of great awakening for each of us! I hope you will be motivated to truly become more awakened after reading this post. So much new information has been revealed–all part of myself becoming more awakened.
To me, it is apparent that events are moving forward with increasing speed, in the celestial realms above. We who are mortal angels, are now acting in our missions, receiving direction from God in our unconscious minds. The 144,000 are being awakened too, to the grandeur of their callings. The remainder of the elect of God are getting ready to be rescued from an ever darkening and sinful world. We all need to take the Holy Spirit for our guide, and not be deceived.
Please ponder what I have written in this post. It will need to take more than a casual read to absorb what I have said. And most importantly, please, please pray for a confirmation from God that what I say is true! This is so very important!
I hope you have a wonderful beginning week of April. Please write me with your comments–I love to hear from you, and help answer any concerns or questions you may have.
Much love,
R

1. Q– Do the mortal angels need to be awakened to knowing what they are doing in the spirit realms, for them to do work in the spirit realms?
A– No
2. Q– Are most of the mortal angels awakened?
A– In knowing what they are doing in the spirit realms, no. In being able to work in the spirit realms fully, yes.
For example, you Raphael do not know really what specific things you are doing in the spirit realms. You do know that you have received assignments, but not what those assignments are. You know in general, but not specific.
3. As for being awakened, I know that I am an angel of God, for that has been confirmed to my soul. I know others know that too. In this sense, they are fully awakened. This is the meaning of the word awakened, to the grand calling and responsibilities of an angel in mortality.
4. We can be awakened, but not have been able yet to see God with our spiritual eyes, and have this connect to our mortal brain (our conscious mind). I believe our unconscious minds have all been in the presence of God, even while we are mortal, and received directions and instructions from God. We don't remember (in our conscious mind), since this was all done in our unconscious mind.
I, Raphael, have been blessed in being able to commune with God in both my unconscious and limited amounts in my conscious mind. If I didn't, I wouldn't be able to write about my communications with God. This is what we who are mortal angels should strive for.
5. In pondering about this, and trying to decipher all of this, I felt Heavenly Father gave me the following direction: (I started writing, and wrote this in my journal):
'Raphael, when you were born in mortality as an infant with a physical body, your spirit was replicated. Your 'main' spirit stayed with your physical body, but your replicated spirit (or multiple replicated spirits, depending on the need), was before God, continuing in the office and responsibilities of an angel. Your mortal body, which housed your main spirit, was capable of conscious actions in the telestial world. Your unconscious, replicated spirit(s) acted within the celestial realms, where God and other angels operate.
6. When your mortal body was exposed to the fact that you were in reality an angel, you received a witness of that truth to your conscious mind. You even knew your premortal name, and that you had lived and worked as an angel for God since this earth was created. You had also continued to work as a replicated spirit(s) since your mortal birth. This then constituted you being awakened to your calling and stature as an angel of God.
7. When you continued to receive instruction in your unconscious state, just like you have always received, you now also knew this was happening, being told that truth in your conscious, mortal mind. You didn't know the particulars, or weren't usually even aware of any specifics, since the directions were given in your unconscious, celestial state of being, to your replicated spirit.
8. The work of mortal angels is 98% done in the unconscious spirit state, in celestial glory. It is difficult for your mortal conscious mind to comprehend this. This has been the way the missions of angels have always been, since the beginning.
As you continue to progress, more and more of your activity will be revealed to your conscious mind. This is now all comprehended in your celestial, unconscious mind.'

1. Today I went to a sacrament meeting in Elk Ridge, Utah, with my wife and son A.. When the sacrament time came, I found myself on the little rock outcropping by the circling pool, in the celestial world. I knelt towards the north, towards the cloudy area over the forest, like I drew in my painting on my last post.
I was trying to observe what I did. I realize now that my actions in these situations are mostly determined by my celestial, replicated body, which has my unconscious mind. I have found that I can observe in my conscious mind what happens, so that is what I did.
2. I saw that I knelt down, and called upon my Heavenly Parents. They came before me in glory, with their scarlet sashes around their robes. Their eyes were firm and resolute it seemed.
After the bread was blessed, I made my covenant in prayer, with my sword of Raphael raised in my right hand, and my left hand also raised high above my head. After the covenant, I lowered my hands and sheathed my sword. (Note: I have no idea why I raised my sword!). When I partook of the bread, my Heavenly Mother addressed me:
3. 'Raphael, we accept the covenant you have made with us today. We will always be near you and with you in your life.
You have been born in the last days, as our archangel in mortality. We will grant your request to have more of the actions that you do in your unconscious mind, and the instructions we give you in that same state, understandable and available to your conscious mind, in your mortal body. This will give you a glimpse of a portion of all the things that you do, as the mortal leader of angels at this time.
4. You have also been blessed to understand more fully the different workings of the unconscious and conscious minds of your being. You now are replicated in your translated, transfigured physical body in the spirit realms, and not just in your spirit. The spirit realms are in celestial glory, in our presence. This is true for other mortal angels who are also translated and transfigured.
There are many activities in which you are now involved, that we have directed you. You are obedient and faithful in all things, Raphael. We love you, our son.'
5. When she finished, I saw myself rise up, and go between them. I held Heavenly Father's right hand in my left, and Heavenly Mother's left hand in my right. We advanced north into the clouds. I soon saw that the forest below ended, and I saw the rock hill at the end of the forest passing under us. We kept moving north into the clouds.
6. Soon we stopped in the cloud, and my Heavenly Parents let go of my hands, urging me to continue going north into the cloud. I did so, and in a while came upon Enoch, the prophet of old who lived before the flood! He had established Zion, the city of God on the earth (see Moses 7:18-21, and D&C 38:4). This city of Zion was taken up into heaven, and the Lord said of Zion "Behold, mine abode forever."
7. Moses 7:18-21
"18 And the Lord called his people Zion, because they were of one heart and one mind, and dwelt in righteousness; and there was no poor among them.
19 And Enoch continued his preaching in righteousness unto the people of God. And it came to pass in his days, that he built a city that was called the City of Holiness, even Zion.
20 And it came to pass that Enoch talked with the Lord; and he said unto the Lord: Surely Zion shall dwell in safety forever. But the Lord said unto Enoch: Zion have I blessed, but the residue of the people have I cursed.
21 And it came to pass that the Lord showed unto Enoch all the inhabitants of the earth; and he beheld, and lo, Zion, in process of time, was taken up into heaven. And the Lord said unto Enoch: Behold mine abode forever."
D&C 38:4 "I am the same which have taken the Zion of Enoch into mine own bosom;"
8. Enoch greeted me and took me down from the cloud into a beautiful city, his city of Zion, which had been taken up to heaven long ago! I remember some of what I did with him in my unconscious mind while there, but it was sketchy. I do remember there was a gathering of the entire city when I came. I recall talking to them as a group, and mingling with these righteous, translated souls. I recall the great beauty and peace of the people, and that their light shone from their faces. It was an amazing experience for me!
9. While there, I recall thinking that this meeting with Enoch and his people, was a precursor to the meeting when they, the people of the city of Zion, will come to the people of the New Jerusalem (see Moses 7:63 below). This is when the people in the city of Zion will fall upon the necks of the people in the New Jerusalem, and we will all kiss each other. Together, there will be God's abode, and it shall be Zion, which shall come forth out of all the creations which God has made.
10. Moses 7:62-64
"62 And righteousness will I send down out of heaven; and truth will I send forth out of the earth, to bear testimony of mine Only Begotten; his resurrection from the dead; yea, and also the resurrection of all men; and righteousness and truth will I cause to sweep the earth as with a flood, to gather out mine elect from the four quarters of the earth, unto a place which I shall prepare, an Holy City, that my people may gird up their loins, and be looking forth for the time of my coming; for there shall be my tabernacle, and it shall be called Zion, a New Jerusalem.
63 And the Lord said unto Enoch: Then shalt thou and all thy city meet them there, and we will receive them into our bosom, and they shall see us; and we will fall upon their necks, and they shall fall upon our necks, and we will kiss each other;
64 And there shall be mine abode, and it shall be Zion, which shall come forth out of all the creations which I have made; and for the space of a thousand years the earth shall rest."
I have thought about this all day long today. As soon as we came home from church, we prepared a dinner for our oldest son and his family, for his birthday party. They left around 9:00 pm, and that was when I finally was able to write all of this in my journal.

1. "In my prayer this morning, I was on top of the granite cliff in Heavenly Mother's gardens above the waterfall: I prayed for the 144,000 to be awakened, and wondered if they too were to do their work predominantly in the spirit realms, as the angels do.
2. Q– Will the 144,000 of every nation work predominantly in the spirit realms?
A– No. Their ministry will be among those of the flesh, and they will of necessity need to work directly with mortals.
Q– On the other hand, will the angels work behind the scenes, and generally not be seen by mortals, working in celestial spirit realms?
A– Yes
3. Q– Is the ministry of the 144,000 in the terrestrial sphere, under the direction of Jesus Christ, the Son?
A– Yes
Q– Do these 144,000, at this time, receive of the presence of the Son, but not the fulness of the Father?
A– Yes. This is during the office of their ministry only. These are all heirs of the celestial kingdom. They work in their calling in terrestrial glory, and couldn't function without the change of the earth to a terrestrial glory, which change is now happening since the blessing that occurred on the earth on August 19th, 2016 (done at Utah Lake).
D. R's Personal Journal Entry, 3-21-2017, Monday
More questions/answers:
1. Q– Will the 144,000 awaken to their callings by a confirmation of the spirit of God to their soul?
A– Yes. Generally, they will be individually led by the spirit and Jesus Christ himself, in doing their work among mortals, in finding the elect of God and in leading them ultimately to the truth and the Church of the Firstborn. These will use portals to bring their converts, the elect of God, to the New Jerusalem, for other modes of transportation will not exist or be too dangerous. They too will be translated so that they will have protection in a dark and evil world.
2. Question from M.A. :
Q– The elect that the 144,000 gather, will they go to the Church of Christ first to be baptized, etc., before they are presented to the Church of the Firstborn?
A– Yes. This will also include laying on of hands for the gift of the Holy Ghost.
3. Q– Do they receive any temple ordinances before being accepted into the Church of the Firstborn?
A– No. The ordinances of the temple belong to the Church of the Firstborn. Once an individual is accepted into the Church of the Firstborn, through the waters of separation ordinance, they may receive their own temple ordinances at the hands of a high priest or a high priestess in the Church of the Firstborn. These include washing and anointing, endowment, and sealing ordinances. There are no ordinances done for anyone other than the one being received into the Church of the Firstborn. All ordinances done in the temple in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and other telestial organizations and churches up to that time since the days of Adam, will be redone anew in the Church of the Firstborn. This will be done for every one thus received into this celestial church. All previous ordinances will be viewed as preparatory ordinances, but these in the Church of the Firstborn will be the ones which bind for eternity.
4. Q– Will there be other ordinances performed in the Church of Christ, prior to entry into the Church of the Firstborn?
A– No.
Q– Will there still be a preparatory priesthood (Aaronic) and a higher priesthood (Melchizedek) in the Church of Christ?
A– Yes these will be reinstated. There will be a time, after the second coming of Christ, when the Aaronic Priesthood will be discontinued. This will be when the sons of Levi offer an offering unto the Lord in righteousness (see D&C 13:1 and 128:124).
5. D&C 13:1:
"1 Upon you my fellow servants, in the name of Messiah I confer the Priesthood of Aaron, which holds the keys of the ministering of angels, and of the gospel of repentance, and of baptism by immersion for the remission of sins; and this shall never be taken again from the earth, until the sons of Levi do offer again an offering unto the Lord in righteousness."
"24 Behold, the great day of the Lord is at hand; and who can abide the day of his coming, and who can stand when he appeareth? For he is like a refiner’s fire, and like fuller’s soap; and he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver, and he shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver, that they may offer unto the Lord an offering in righteousness. Let us, therefore, as a church and a people, and as Latter-day Saints, offer unto the Lord an offering in righteousness; and let us present in his holy temple, when it is finished, a book containing the records of our dead, which shall be worthy of all acceptation."
7. Q– Will the great work of redeeming the dead be done in the millennium?
A– The dead who have died in the faith of Christ, and whom Christ qualifies for entrance into the Church of the Firstborn, will receive, in person, the ordinance of the waters of separation. The living or resurrected dead who are converted to Christ, will be baptized into the Church of Christ, and will receive the laying on of hands for the gift of the Holy Ghost. Those who were baptized previously into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, by those who held the priesthood, will not need to be re-baptized into the Church of Christ. This is also true for Saints of former day churches who were authorized and held the priesthood.
8. Q– Will those who are resurrected, who are not yet baptized, be baptized into the Church of Christ in the millennium?
A– Yes
9. Q– Will those who are dead, and not yet resurrected, be baptized by proxy into the Church of Christ?
A– If they accept Christ in the world of the spirits, having already lived in mortality, they will be resurrected so that they may be baptized themselves, in person, into the Church of Christ, and then receive, if found worthy by the keeper of the gate who is Christ, the ordinance of the waters of separation. This is the great work for the dead in the millennium. There will be no proxy work, for it will all be done in person by the person who has accepted Christ, and he, Christ, has accepted them. The ordinances of baptism and the waters of separation are done for the living in mortality or for the resurrected. This is also true for temple ordinances after the candidate has been received into the Church of the Firstborn.

More questions:
1. Q– D&C 131:1-3 says there are three heavens or degrees in the celestial glory, and in order to obtain the highest a man must enter into this order of the priesthood (meaning the new and everlasting covenant of marriage). Is this order of the priesthood only found in the ordinance of sealing in the temple ceremony in the Church of the Firstborn?
A– Yes.
2. Q– Are the lower two heavens or degrees in the celestial glory, not associated with entering into the Church of the Firstborn?
A– Yes, they are not associated with the Church of the Firstborn. In order to enter into the highest, Jesus Christ must accept and quality the candidate, and they must receive the waters of separation ordinance, plus the temple ordinances after this entry ordinance.
3. Q– Do any of the temple ordinances bind for eternity the one receiving them, for those done in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints?
A– No, these are preparatory ordinances, like those of the lesser priesthood compared to those of the higher priesthood. The only binding ordinances are those received after being received by the waters of separation into the Church of the Firstborn.
4. Q– So, when the LDS Church teaches that sealing is for eternity, it isn't actually that way unless it is consummated with a final sealing ordinance in the Church of the Firstborn?
A– That is true. To be received into the highest heaven, the ordinance of sealing in the new and everlasting covenant of marriage, performed by a high priest or a high priestess in the Church of the Firstborn is required, to be effective and binding for eternity. [Note: This high priest and high priestess is Heavenly Father, Jesus Christ, and Heavenly Mother. See further revelation on this topic revealed this ordinance of sealing is done in the Celestial Temple on the celestial orb by HF, HM or Jesus Christ. See post 82K7-82K8: "The sealing of children to their parents, an ordinance also now done in the LDS temples, is one which will be done by us, your Gods, and only for those who have received their ordinances in our temple up to that point, in the Church of the Firstborn. We will not honor sealings of spouses to each other, or of children to their parents in the LDS Church. These were always meant to be performed in the Church of the Firstborn, and they have always been part of the progression for our exalted children. The practice of searching for your dead is necessary to adequately identify relationships of ancestors so that their baptisms for the dead may be performed. The bestowal of the Gift of the Holy Ghost by the laying on of the hands by the priesthood is also valid for the dead and the living. The one holding the priesthood in performing this ordinance and the baptism ordinance needs to be valid and approved of God."]
5. Q– Do high priests and high priestesses, in the Church of the Firstborn, have equivalent authority before God?
A– Yes. However, their power is derived from different orders–priesthood from Heavenly Father's order, and high priestess from Heavenly Mother's order. Either order may perform the temple ordinances in the Church of the Firstborn. Heavenly Father's order can be used in a telestial, terrestrial or celestial sphere. Heavenly Mother's order can be used in a terrestrial or celestial sphere. The revealing of Heavenly Mother's power has just barely been allowed on earth since the earth is now being elevated to a terrestrial sphere of existence. It has not been used during the time the earth was in a telestial sphere. During that telestial existence, women have been subjugated to man, often in unrighteous ways. We are now entering into an era of much greater equality.

1. Yesterday evening as I prayed near the circling waters in Heavenly Mother's garden area, I noticed the capes of my Heavenly Parents blowing vigorously. I asked them why they were blowing, and the word 'calamity' came into my mind. This morning in my prayer, I was at the same location, and saw the same thing. I asked again about their blowing capes. Heavenly Mother wanted me to write as she gave me her direction and answer:
2. 'Raphael, calamity is imminent, for our anger is kindled upon the wicked, for they have rejected us and will not repent. We are awakening the 144,000 out of every nation now, and confirming to their souls who they are and their identity.
Our holy angels are working for us in the celestial realms above. All things are in order and proceeding as we have planned.
3. You have also asked to confirm all that you have written in your journal in the last two days. Of necessity, the ordinances in the temples, since the inception of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, are not binding for eternity unless the individual has proven themselves worthy, and been accepted into the Church of the Firstborn. Those individuals who have not been accepted into the Church of the Firstborn, because of their lack of obedience to our spirit, will not have their temple work binding in the next life.
4. Those who have been faithful, and have taken the Holy Spirit for their guide, will have their temple ordinances that they have received in mortality verified and consummated by receipt again of these same ordinances done in the Church of the Firstborn. This will bind these eternally, so that they are acceptable before us.'
5. Q– Is the rest of the information I received in the past few days correct, as I have written in my journal?
A– Yes
G. R's Personal Journal Entry, 3-24-2017, Friday
1. Q– Will the 144,000 be organized as a group under a head in the Church of Christ?
A– Answered by Heavenly Mother:
'The 144,000, 12,000 from each of the tribes of Israel, will be loosely organized as a whole. Their individual direction will be given by the Holy Spirit and from Jesus Christ. They will not be part of either the Church of Christ nor the Church of the Firstborn at first, since those churches will not yet be organized during the first part of their ministry. They will initially work in a dark and evil world. They will have protection and power derived from their translated state. Once they start transporting people to the New Jerusalem, there will be a Church of Christ, and the foundation of the Church of the Firstborn started. Some of their early converts will need to wait until the Church of the Firstborn is fully established, and they are accepted into this Church by Jesus Christ. Once that happens, they will be able to be received into the Church of the Firstborn by the ordinance of the waters of separation, done by you Raphael, and by Oriphiel, both archangels of God.
2. When these receive their own temple ordinances in the Church of the Firstborn, they will pass through the veil into our presence. It will no longer be figurative, but will be in reality. If the new member of the Church of the Firstborn hasn't yet been transfigured, they will be transfigured at the time of coming into our presence at the end of the endowment ceremony. Either your Heavenly Father or me will be on the other side of the veil to receive them into our presence.'
I received all of these answers while praying on the bank of the river representing Jesus Christ, facing east towards the fountain of living waters. I feel confirmed in my heart that all this is true!
H. R's Personal Journal Entry, 3-25-2017, Saturday
1. "Q– Will the Church of Christ be established before the Church of the Firstborn?
A– Yes
2. I noticed this morning in my prayer, that the capes of Heavenly Father and Heavenly Mother were no longer blowing. I don't know why they started and stopped–only that calamity was imminent.
I also confirmed that Gabriel would sound his trumpet on Monday morning, 3-27-2017, at 6:00 am.
I asked if I should be doing anything else in my mortal telestial life, other than I am doing. I then felt I was acting and living just like my Heavenly Parents wanted me to live.
I prayed for the angels, the 144,000, and the elect of God. I prayed for my wife and children, and those in need around me.

1. Q– Is the predominant way that the mortal angels, the 144,000, and the rest of the elect of God going to be directed by God in these last days, by taking upon them the Holy Spirit as their guide?
A– Yes
2. Q– Does this mean there will be a time when there will be no organization that will give them direction, like a church?
A– Yes, there will be no one, no church or organization that will lead them along. It will all be from God and his Holy Spirit. This is the only way that they will not be deceived (see D&C 45:56-58 below). They will not be in the midst of the Lord (verse 59) until they have been sufficiently led by the Holy Spirit to come to that point. It won't be until most are directed by the Holy Spirit in their lives, that the Church of Christ and the Church of the Firstborn will be created for them to become part of. These are all the wise virgins in the parable of the ten virgins.
3. On the other hand, the unwise virgins and the wicked, know no part in being individually led by the Holy Spirit. They rely on others for their direction, those who are usually just as lost and misguided as they themselves are.
4. It has been decreed, in the courts above, that the holy angels, the 144,000, and the elect of God are not to receive the great blessings that God has in store for them, except by being individually led by the Holy Spirit of God, and by God himself, in finding their way and fulfilling their mission in these last days.
5. D&C 45:56-59:
"56 And at that day, when I shall come in my glory, shall the parable be fulfilled which I spake concerning the ten virgins.
57 For they that are wise and have received the truth, and have taken the Holy Spirit for their guide, and have not been deceived—verily I say unto you, they shall not be hewn down and cast into the fire, but shall abide the day.
58 And the earth shall be given unto them for an inheritance; and they shall multiply and wax strong, and their children shall grow up without sin unto salvation.
59 For the Lord shall be in their midst, and his glory shall be upon them, and he will be their king and their lawgiver."
6. Q– D&C 45:24– Who are the remnant in this verse "and this I have told you concerning Jerusalem, and when that day shall come, shall a remnant be scattered among all nations"?
A– It is the elect of God. These will be gathered when the Times of the Gentiles shall be fulfilled. This time is now fulfilled.
7. . . . After church: My wife and I went to a local LDS Church. . .
At the sacrament meeting, I envisioned myself at the first bend in the river above the circling pool, in Heavenly Mother's garden, in the celestial world. I was kneeling in a bed of mountain flowers, facing the river. I knelt and could see Heavenly Father and Heavenly Mother in front of me. When the blessing on the bread was done, I raised my arms in the air, and offered my covenant prayer before them. I partook of the bread in the ward, and then Heavenly Father addressed me:
'Raphael, we accept your covenant, to take upon yourself the name of our Beloved Son, to always remember us, and to keep our commandments.
8. This morning we gave you the inspiration that our elect, or the remnant, hear our voice and follow us. This is the way we will direct them to gather to us, and to help those others of the elect to gather to the New Jerusalem. They will be led by the Holy Spirit and by our own voice (see D&C 45:57). We have decreed that all of our elect at all times during their dwelling on the earth, will be led to us by acting in obedience to that light and direction we give to them. In these days, before the coming of the Son of Man to the earth, we will also temporarily take away all organizations and churches that will lead them to us. It will be a day of confusion and darkness. No one will know what to do that is correct, unless they receive their own light from us, their Heavenly Parents. They will need to follow our own specific direction to them, and not lean upon man or the direction of men. This is the fulfillment of the parable of the ten virgins, for those that are wise.
9. During this difficult time, the first phase for our elect will be for them to rely entirely upon the Holy Spirit and our voice to their souls, for all earthly churches are corrupt and cannot be trusted in the direction they give.
10. The second phase will be the help and direction from the Church of Christ that will be re-established among men. The leaders of this restored church will give true direction, which the elect should confirm is the direction they should follow.
11. In the third phase, the Church of the Firstborn will be established. The elect who qualify and are permitted to come into the Church of the Firstborn, will be ushered into our presence, once they enter into this church. You, Raphael, will have the privilege of assisting each one to enter into our celestial church.'
12. After I received this clarifying word from my Father, I realized that it has always been so for the faithful–to be led by the Holy Spirit, and by God himself. Those who do not hear, are then not qualified for entrance into his kingdom. In our day, this same process will be the way the elect of God (the mortal angels, the 144,000, and the remainder of the elect of God, scattered in all the nations of the earth) will be led. They each need to receive the Holy Spirit for their guide so that they are not deceived. They need to each choose the path in which they go, by the light of God to their souls.
13. There is no other way to really return to live in God's presence. We cannot blindly obey or follow our leaders, for even these will be taken away for a time. Even so, we need to confirm all they say through prayer, and the word of the Lord to us directly.
Yesterday I was listening to D&C 133 and came across two occurrences where God refers to an angel, which I believe refers to the angel Raphael:
14. 1) D&C 133:17-18– "For behold, the Lord God hath sent forth the angel crying through the midst of heaven, saying: Prepare ye the way of the Lord, and make his paths straight, for the hour of his coming is nigh—
When the Lamb shall stand upon Mount Zion, and with him a hundred and forty-four thousand, having his Father’s name written on their foreheads."
15. This event happened on 10-3-2016 at the mouth of Provo Canyon, at the foot of Mount Zion (Mt Timpanogos). Here I stated that this angel reference is Raphael. I received a witness at that time, and also now. Also, note that D&C 133:17 above is Raphael, referring to this verse in Revelation 14:6-7–
6 And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people
7 Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters."
16. 2) Here is another reference of the angel Raphael: D&C 133:36-38–
"36 And now, verily saith the Lord, that these things might be known among you, O inhabitants of the earth, I have sent forth mine angel flying through the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel, who hath appeared unto some and hath committed it unto man, who shall appear unto many that dwell on the earth.
37 And this gospel shall be preached unto every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people.
38 And the servants of God shall go forth, saying with a loud voice: Fear God and give glory to him, for the hour of his judgment is come"
17. These are the same words, or similar to, those also found in Revelation 14:6-7. God says here that this angel hath committed the everlasting gospel to man. This actually was committed to Joseph Smith, as found in D&C 128:21–
And again, the voice of God in the chamber of old Father Whitmer, in Fayette, Seneca county, and at sundry times, and in divers places through all the travels and tribulations of this Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints! And the voice of Michael, the archangel; the voice of Gabriel, and of Raphael, and of divers angels, from Michael or Adam down to the present time, all declaring their dispensation, their rights, their keys, their honors, their majesty and glory, and the power of their priesthood; giving line upon line, precept upon precept; here a little, and there a little; giving us consolation by holding forth that which is to come, confirming our hope!"
I prayed and verified that the two references to an angel in section 133:17-18 and 133:36-38, are both referring to Raphael, the archangel.
I also had the feeling that I was able, in the premortal life as Raphael, and probably the other angels as well, to ask for what period in earth's history I would like to be born into. I plan to ask this in my prayer tonight.
18. Later, at night in prayer:
Q– Did I ask to come forth in these last days, and is that one reason why I have been chosen to come forth now?
A– Yes
Q– Is this also true with every mortal angel who is alive now, during these last days times?
A– Yes! Each was granted according to his or her desire.
J. R's Personal Journal Entry, 3-27-2017, Monday
1. Last night I had a major computer problem at work, and I worked much of the early morning on it from home. I did come back to bed around 5:55 am this morning, and was in a meditative state to hear Gabriel's trumpet! It lasted about 5 seconds I thought, and seemed higher than the note I blew on 7-31-2016 in Utah. This morning, I felt to go to the same location I blew on that day in July, and that is where I heard my older brother Gabriel's trumpet of God. I believe he blew his horn in the Middle East, as recorded in Revelation 9:13-15–
2. "13 And the sixth angel sounded, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before God,
14 Saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose the four angels, which are bound in the great river Euphrates.
15 And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, for to slay the third part of men."
3. I am now going to see if I can hear the voice from the four horns of the golden altar (verse 14 above), proclaiming the loosing of four angels for the 13-month war (verse 15 above):
4. I hadn't yet prayed today (it was already about 2:15 pm) because of my being consumed by my work problems. When I finally felt settled, I went to the golden altar, with four horns in front of me. I knelt between God's temple in the celestial kingdom and the altar, facing north to the fountain of living waters. I opened my prayer by addressing my Heavenly Father and my Heavenly Mother. They both appeared, as did Jesus Christ who was on the right hand of the Father, and Heavenly Mother was on his left hand side.
I apologized to not have come quicker. I asked if I could hear the voice from the golden altar before me. Heavenly Father nodded, and I heard the voice, just like in Revelation 9:13-14 above.
5. I then saw in my mind, Gabriel, the archangel, with the trumpet of God in his left hand. There were four destruction angels in front of him. He was in the air, high above the Middle East. He spoke to these angels:
'You are now loosed to slay one third part of men in this area, for an hour, a day, a month and a year.'
6. Gabriel then withdrew his sword with his right hand from his sheath on his left side. He raised the sword of Gabriel high in his right hand above his head, and the other four angels of destruction also raised their swords high above their heads. They then departed to the earth below.
7. Gabriel then came in front of God and knelt down before them, on one knee, between the golden altar and God the Father. He said:
'I have completed the work that thou hast asked me to do. I have blown the trumpet of God, and have loosed the four angels of destruction to the Euphrates River. This is my report.'
8. Heavenly Father responded:
'It is well, Gabriel my son!'
Then they all vanished before me! I was left alone before the golden altar. I then ended my prayer.
9. Later: During my evening prayer tonight, I also knelt before the golden altar. Heavenly Father and Heavenly Mother came, and had soft eyes and smiles for me! I imagine only that their firm countenances that I had seen the week or more before in them, were culminated in the completion of the charge that they had given Gabriel, the archangel and 6th angel in Revelation 9:13. He blew the trumpet of woe (Revelation 9:12) and released the four angels of destruction upon the wicked. It was quite a dramatic finale to this important event.
10. I feel so happy to see my Heavenly Parents happy again! I didn't know how long they could maintain those very sober visages, and firm eyes and faces!
I next felt I should share this and my other journal entries with all the mortal angels.
I also felt all that I had seen today had really occurred.
I then closed my prayer. I next saw that I stood and walked between my Heavenly Parents, right through the golden altar, and into the sky! Heavenly Father was on my left with his right arm around my shoulders, and Heavenly Mother had her left arm around my waist. I then don't know where we went.
K. R's Personal Journal Entry, 3-28-2017, Tuesday
1. I awoke this morning, having re-read my journal entries for the past two days. These were important events I saw, with Gabriel and the destruction angels, and by the golden altar in the celestial world!
2. When I started my prayer this morning, I had just arrived in the clouds from the area where Enoch and his city were located. Heavenly Father and Heavenly Mother had escorted me, and I was standing on the little rock hill, at the north end of the forest in Heavenly Mother's garden area, above the waterfall. I was facing both of them, standing up. Apparently, I had been with them all night long when I had left with them from the golden altar last night. I don't recall anything of what happened, for I know it was in my unconscious mind.
3. When I addressed my Heavenly Parents, they each had soft, pleasant eyes and faces, and were smiling at me. They also no longer wore their red scarlet sashes, that they had worn up to yesterday when the angel Gabriel came before them, in front of the golden altar.
4. I thought about all of these places in heaven, the celestial world, in my conscious mind that I had been. I wondered how I had 'seen' them all–for they all seemed so normal to me now. I know I have been led by God to visit all of these places, and that these are real locations in the celestial world. It all seems so clear to my mind. I know how to navigate around to these places I have visited. I feel so blessed to have been there again, this time also in my mortal conscious mind, as well as in my unconscious celestial mind.
5. Heavenly Mother then spoke to me:
'Raphael, we have been with you all night, since you left us in prayer last night, next to the golden altar. We have you very busy in our world! We have further instructed you on the next phase of what we want you and the mortal angels to do. All of the mortal angels were also with you during part of this instruction last night. We were all assembled in the great assembly hall at the north end of Heavenly Father's area, past his harvested wheat field.
6. We are pleased to report to you that our actions are moving forward as we have planned. This is a day of great activity for all our holy angels. It is also a time of greater inspiration for the 144,000 who are being led by us to awaken to their glorious callings.
7. As the world you live in sinks into greater darkness and sin, our elect of God are receiving more protections and direction. We are devoting our full efforts in saving these, in their return to us where we dwell.
8. Please convey to our mortal angels our love and acceptance for them! As they ask to become more aware, in their conscious mind of what they are doing in their unconscious, celestial mind, we will give them little glimpses. We will answer their prayers of faith, in our own way and time. We love all of you who are angels very much!'
L. R's Personal Journal Entry, 3-29-2017, Wednesday
1. Last night I was able to pray at the top of the waterfall in Heavenly Mother's garden. This morning I was at the end of her garden, on top of the granite cliff. In both times, my Heavenly Parents came and had smiling faces, and soft and loving eyes for me.
2. This morning I asked about the scripture in D&C 46:13-14–
"13 To some it is given by the Holy Ghost to know that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, and that he was crucified for the sins of the world.
14 To others it is given to believe on their words, that they also might have eternal life if they continue faithful."
3. Q– In this scripture above, if we are supposed to have our own light, and not rely on others but to God for this light and direction, how can we just believe in others to eternal life, and not know for ourselves?
4. A– From Heavenly Mother:
'Raphael, there are many ways that our children receive the truth and accept it. Some have very clear direction, with hearing voices and or seeing us. Others of our children receive their direction and witness in more subtle, but just as valid and strong ways. This latter group receives light and direction from us, but have more of a very strong feeling to do something, or to act in certain ways. This way of receiving direction is just as valid and acceptable to us–we talk and whisper to our children in ways they each will understand, and will be motivated to action. All of our light and direction is valid, and is received differently among our children. This scripture that says 'believe in their words' refers to those who receive our direction in more subtle, but just as strong ways, that fits their spiritual makeup, as one who sees our face and hears our voice in other more distinct and clear ways. All are acceptable to us, and all who act in loving ways, following our guidance, are candidates for eternal life, if they continue faithful.'
5. I then realized that I have a gift to see and hear what my replicated being is doing and receiving from God. This is a great gift, and when I write my experiences, I believe these can help many others. However, each who reads or hears me, must be led by God to confirm these truths. This witness comes to each soul so differently, as Heavenly Mother explained above. However, without their own witness, they will not have the confidence to press forward and be faithful to the end. We must never cease to call upon God, for guidance and direction in our lives. Doing so is very pleasing to our Heavenly Parents.
6. Often when I end my prayers, I see myself continuing to commune with Heavenly Father and Heavenly Mother in my unconscious self, in the celestial realms above. I then consciously go about my day, or go to bed in mortality, but my replicated soul is with God often. This is a comfort to me! Then throughout the day, I can pick up where I consciously left off, and God is right there, next to me. This is what I think 'continually watchful unto prayer', or 'praying without ceasing' means.
7. Later: Tonight at prayer, I came to God at the circling waters, near the bench facing the waters. My Heavenly Parents were on the waters. At the end of my petition to my Heavenly Parents, Heavenly Father spoke to me:
'Raphael, it is time now to much more dramatically share with you what you are doing in the celestial realms, as an archangel of God. This will be transferred into your mortal conscious mind. However, you are still too occupied with work and other activities, so that we cannot share these with you. To receive them, you need to be more settled, and in a happier, peaceful state. We will give you our clarity of thought as you unwind and relax more.
8. This is also true of all our mortal angels. It is now time for all of you to slow down and have more open time, to be able to connect with your activities in the celestial spiritual realms.'
9. I then looked in his eyes–they were compassionate, gentle and soft. I had received a gentle reprimand from my loving Father in heaven. I will change! He has given me sufficient blessings to be sustained on earth in my family. He has given me so many blessings! All is set for me to relax more, and to connect with heaven more.
Today my wife told me the same thing! She said that I need to stop stressing about work, and relax–to do the things I want to do, and enjoy my life more, and not fret over those things, which I don't enjoy. It was great counsel too.
M. R's Personal Journal Entry, 3-30-2017, Thursday
1. In my prayers this morning by the circling waters, Heavenly Father and Heavenly Mother had Enoch come, and Heavenly Father talked to him. He said I was going to understand more of the celestial realm in which I worked, as I slowed down in my mortal life. He asked Enoch to share with me our activities and other things, without any limitations, that he is doing and that we are doing together. He also asked Enoch to help me understand my unconscious mind happenings.
2. After this instruction, Enoch said to Heavenly Father that he would help me. He then turned and spoke to me, that he would assist me in my mortal body. He said he would be near me often. This was the extent of my prayer this morning.
3. Later: Today has been a good day, but difficult too. My wife and I talked more about the need for me to not get so stressed out by work. I have been in charge of our operations at work, and it is getting too much for me now–after all of these computer upheavals at work. She really wants me to stop working, and to start doing the things I like to do. This is exactly what God wants me to do too! It is hard for me to let go of my routines, and to become more relaxed in the day.
4. . . . It seems that I am more 'fragile' these days. I get overwhelmed and stressed out easier than before. I think that I am doing so much more in the spiritual realms that it stresses out my physical body on earth. I really feel a great need to calm down more, and not be so involved in things and activities that stress me out.
N. R's Personal Journal Entry, 3-31-2017, Friday
1. I enjoyed a nice rest last night. I awoke much more settled.
This morning I prayed at the top of the switchback, looking from the top of the switchback, looking east over the lake at God's Loving Healing Center. I was kneeling with my hands raised, and I lowered them three times, asking God to hear the words of my mouth. Heavenly Father and Heavenly Mother came before me in the air.
2. I was able to look into their loving faces again. I didn't see much else. I could see happy eyes and gentle, loving smiles. I also saw they were no longer wearing their scarlet red sashes.
I prayed for the mortal angels, so we all would be able to perceive our doings in the spiritual realms more clearly. I prayed for the 144,000 to be awakened, and to have the direction of God in their awakenings, and the Holy Spirit to be their guide. I also prayed for all the elect, scattered throughout the earth. I prayed for their protection.
3. I asked that I be aware more fully of the things I do today, so that I might see, perceive and write of these events. I then closed in the name of Jesus Christ.
When I was done praying, I lingered and tried to perceive what occurred. I felt I then stood, and my Heavenly Parents parted a little. I walked between them and then we all three walked a little forward.
4. I next saw a host of mortal angels, and non-mortals angels as well, in a vast array over the lake at God's Loving Healing Center. I was addressing them. My Heavenly Father was behind me on my left, and my Heavenly Mother was behind me on my right. I could see them, but I don't believe the angels could see them. My Heavenly Parents were inspiring me what to instruct the group of angels.
I felt this was a fairly common occurrence now. We convened regularly now, in different areas in the celestial world.
When acting alone in their individual assignments, I also perceived each angel did their errand with their Heavenly Parents behind them too, but not seen, like I saw myself this morning.
5. This reminded me of the scripture in Isaiah 30:20-21:
"20 And though the Lord give you the bread of adversity, and the water of affliction, yet shall not thy teachers be removed into a corner any more, but thine eyes shall see thy teachers:
21 And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left."
6. This is a reality every day in the celestial realms now for the angels. We are very active in carrying forward the work of God. God's work has greatly quickened in behalf of the ultimate goal of saving the elect of God on the earth. This is the great day of gathering of all Israel from the ends of the earth!
7. I feel so blessed to have perceived and seen this experience this morning, after my morning prayer. I want to have more down time, more quiet and peaceful time, so that I may peer into the great happenings in these spiritual realms!
O. R's Personal Journal Entry, 4-1-2017, Saturday
1. Last night in my prayer, I received tremendous insight on the role of angels, and the 144,000. I will start with my own perception of myself to show the role of angels.
2. 1) Role and activity of angels. As I prayed and pondered, I realized that I seek to find out where I should pray. This has almost always been in the celestial world. The reason why is that I am finding the location where my replicated self is located, or where we can meet together in my prayer! I then synch, as much as I can, with my unconscious mind there, and my mortal conscious mind here. As this happens, I can then perceive God when both Heavenly Father and Heavenly Mother come before me. My minds (unconscious there and conscious here on earth) mesh and link together at this time of union.
3. Once I end my prayer, my replicated self in the celestial world continues my celestial activity there. I also receive directions and specific things to do from my Heavenly Parents. Meanwhile, on earth, my main self is living in mortality, doing different things.
4. As part of assignments and missions, other replicated selves of me are back on earth as a holy angel. I can be in multiple places. I also have a replicated, physical translated and transfigured body to do my work. On earth as an angel, I can keep hidden in celestial glory, or I can hold back my glory and even disguise myself since I have a physical body. I can then do activities like I saw in my prayer visions. This is more work among people on earth. I act as a hidden angel, among people who are unaware of who I am and my mission, to fulfill the work of God.
5. So I am in three places: in my mortal body as R (main self), in the celestial world as Raphael, and on multiple missions as Raphael on earth, helping God's elect.
When I pray, at least my own mortal self and my celestial replicated self in heaven come together when talking with God. This is a union of my unconscious and conscious minds, and a great time of revelation for me, of revealing to me of what is really going on in heaven. This same thing is true of all mortal angels.
6. 2) Role of the 144,000. These individuals don't interact on the celestial plane like do angels. Angels work directly for God. The 144,000 will be translated but not transfigured. Their translation will be to a terrestrial level, whereas mortal angels are translated to a celestial level, and have much greater capacity of being in the celestial world and in being able to replicate themselves physically.
7. The 144,000 will be translated so they can zip around and bring the elect to the New Jerusalem and the Church of the Firstborn. They do this through portals, by virtue of their translated state. They really don't replicate themselves, but act in their conscious minds. Their unconscious minds are elevated to a terrestrial level. The unconscious minds of angels are in the celestial plane.
8. 3) Jesus Christ. Jesus was on earth in his mortal body until the day of transfiguration. He was also able to replicate before that time, but only in his spirit state. This allowed him to continue as the God of this world. This was also done in his unconscious mind.
9. At the day of transfiguration, on the Mount of Transfiguration, Jesus was translated and transfigured. He was not the first one to have this happen (Enoch and his people had this also happen). This is now what the mortal angels are experiencing.
10. When Jesus died, he voluntarily died, and his translated, celestial, transfigured body separated from his celestial spirit. He was resurrected the third day, by power in himself (being a God) and of the Father. He and Enoch showed the angels the way to be translated and transfigured to a celestial level, and to be able to replicate themselves physically. We angels have now done this, since we too are translated and transfigured to a celestial level.
11. 4) Enoch and his people. I believe this group was translated and transfigured to a celestial glory. They dwell in a city, Zion, in the celestial world now. I have been there. However, their translated state does not allow them to procreate. This is so that their city and population would not be overtaken with more and more people, who would have not had a mortal experience.
12. However, we mortal angels may procreate. This is because our children will be still able to have a normal mortal experience. We can also do the work of angels, even with physical translated and transfigured celestial bodies, which have more capability and power than were we only spirits in the spiritual realms. I believe this is the greatest honor we mortals could ever receive.
Last night, after my mind was awakened to these ideas, I pondered well past midnight on these things! They were very delicious to my soul, and seemed very much precious nuggets of truth from God.
13. When I open a prayer, without pre-meditating where I am located, I feel aimless almost, in connecting to God. However, if I think of where I should pray, I then can connect to my replicated other celestial self in heaven. My mind (conscious and unconscious) then can mesh or synch together. Then my prayer is such that I can perceive God, see the faces of Heavenly Father and Heavenly Mother, and 'see' what's going on. It is a great, great blessing!
14. This morning, in my prayer, I went to the rock outcropping next to the circling pool of water (in my watercolor drawing from my last post). I felt I was 'home' in my spirit, or in my replicated celestial body, who was waiting there. We became 'one' together. Then I called upon my Heavenly Parents, and they came. My perceptions were high, and I could see into the faces of God, even comprehending them in my mortal conscious mind. This is how I feel my prayers need to be, twice a day, before God. It is my method of staying really connected to myself and to God.
At the end of my morning prayer, I felt like my translated main self 'fell back' to earth where I am in my mortal body. I feel all I have written is true, for I confirmed each point by point.
P. R's Personal Journal Entry, 4-2-2017, Sunday
1. I watched a lot of the first two sessions of general conference of the LDS Church yesterday with A. and my wife. I also attended all of the priesthood session with three of my sons. We boys went out to eat at a local restaurant afterward.
My impressions from last night during the priesthood session: The fifteen apostles are all saying words, the same as they have always said, but they lack the Spirit of God it seems. I had confirmed again, to my soul, that these brethren have fully lost their priesthood and all their priesthood keys. It is very sad for me, for I would want it otherwise. When I looked on them, and then saw the face of Heavenly Father before me, my Father had a very firm and resolute look–he was not happy with the actions of his apostles.
2. I also believe that it is only these fifteen men who generally have lost their keys and priesthood, through disobedience to God's direction. The other general authorities generally still have their priesthood, and the keys which are inherent in their priesthood. There may be a few who have lost their priesthood through transgression–I don't know. However, without the leading head of the church (First Presidency and Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, who have no priesthood or keys), the rest of the priesthood body in the church is also left without the delegated ecclesiastical keys of organization, etc., and are all left alone, singly in acting in their priesthood. They have no ecclesiastical rights, or powers in their church offices, for the delegation power is missing. This is what I had confirmed yesterday.
I also felt that God was not present yesterday in the conference, nor any angels were present in the conference center that I could perceive.
Q. R's Personal Journal Entry, 4-3-2017, Monday
1. . . . Last night in my prayer I went to the north side of the oak tree next to Heavenly Father's wheat field. I felt connected to Heavenly Father and Heavenly Mother again. I also prayed there this morning.
At the end of my prayer this morning, I asked if I could be taken to the great assembly hall, north of Father's wheat field. Both Heavenly Father and Heavenly Mother graciously took me there! I was so excited.
2. We traveled north along the river respresenting Heavenly Father. It soon emptied into a large lake. This was much larger than the lake at God's Loving Healing Center. On the northeast side of the lake, facing the lake, was the large assembly hall.
3. The hall was rectangular, with a flat roof which was only supported on all four side walls (it was a very open feeling inside). There were gardens and beauty inside and outside this great hall. It was magnificently beautiful! The head of the hall was on the opposite side of the entrance from the lake. In the hall, there were rows of benches, interspersed with garden areas, with lots of bushes and flowers. There was an elevated area at the front of the hall where one could address everyone together who was seated in the hall.
4. As we went outside the hall by the lake, I saw a small stream from the lake go east. It traveled into a beautiful valley where was located the city of Zion, Enoch's city! I saw it from a distance at the top of the hill above the valley. This is where I had been taken by Enoch from the clouds last week or so.
All of this was so beautiful–the lake, hall and the valley with the city of Zion! I expressed deep thankfulness to my Heavenly Parents for this tour to another area of the celestial world that I had been privileged to visit!"
