Epic Guild (Part 2)-- The Restoration

Continued from Epic Guild (Part 1) --The Apostasy...

Cataclysm drags on and the casuals have completely disbanded the epic guild. The GM has not logged on for ages, and the officers are no longer on the server. It seems like there is no hope left. People are confused, and it seems like new raiding guilds pop up almost everyday, spamming trade chat to try and recruit raiders. With all this confusion what would a newly dinged level 85 do? Does he risk trying to join one of these sub par guilds, and subject himself to nights of fail and repeated wipes? Probably not.

The GM logs back on

Time continues to go on, and miraculously one day the GM logs back on. Instead of inviting fully-epiced out level 85s the GM starts to /who players who are under the level cap. These people are basically noobs (I mean come on its been this long into the expansion and you're not even 85!), but he knows they are humble, and devoted, and that he can mold them into the officer core that he needs. Time goes on, and the guild starts to progress. All the officer core has been trained in the ways of raiding from a pro GM, they have a solid guild, and its time to recruit. Many people are unsure about the guild. The officers get questions like,"Aren't you that one guy that was spamming trade asking where your class trainer is?" or "Weren't you the noob I qued into a heroic with in greens and pvp gear?" But the guild has a way for everyone to resolve their concerns. It is to try it out. See for yourself if it works. And then if you're good enough, and can make the commitment, you can join up.

Christ's Church Fell into Apostasy

As mentioned in the previous part to this blog (Epic Guild (Part 1) --The Apostasy), Christ's Church fell into a state of apostasy after Christ's apostles died...
As time progressed, this caused many churches to be built up from the things that Christ had taught. Although these people had good intentions, they were not able to have the fullness of Christ's doctrine, nor did they have the authority or organization that Christ's church originally possessed. Many people in this period (known as the Great Apostasy) were confused. A scripture in Amos 8:11-12, and numerous other scriptures predict this happening after Christ had come:

11 ¶Behold, the days come, saith the Lord God, that I will send a famine in the land, not a ^afamine of bread, nor a ^bthirst for water, but of hearing the ^cwords of the Lord:

 12 And they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall ^arun to and fro to seek the word of the Lord, and shall not find it.

James 1:5- "If any of you lack wisdom..."

When the time was right, God again chose to restore his church. In 1820 there lived a young boy by the name of Joseph Smith, who saw all these many churches. The churches taught many good things, but they all  interpreted scripture differently, consequently teaching different things. Joseph knew that God could not be the author of so much confusion.  As he read in the Bible, he came across a scripture in James 1:5, which states: "^aIf any of you lack ^bwisdom, let him ask of God, that ^cgiveth to all men liberally, and ^dupbraideth not; and it shall be given him." Joseph decided to apply that scripture, knowing that God would answer him, and tell him which of all these churches was correct.

God Once Again Appears to Man

Describing his experience, Joseph states, " I saw a pillar of ^clight exactly over my head, above the brightness of the ^dsun, which descended gradually until it fell upon me...When the light rested upon me I ^bsaw two ^cPersonages, whose brightness and ^dglory defy all description, ^estanding above me in the air. One of them spake unto me, calling me by name and said, pointing to the other—This is My ^fBeloved ^gSon. Hear Him!" 

In answer to his prayers, Joseph Smith was able to receive a vision of both the Father and the Son. I know that his account is true. He was able to ask which of all these churches were true, and his answer was that none of the churches on earth were true, but that through him, Christ would again restore his Church preparatory to his Second Coming. That Church today, with Christ as its Chief Cornerstone, and a foundation of Prophets and Apostles is the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.





Is this true?

Knowing that doubt and disbelief would arise concerning the restoration of Christ's Church, God has prepared a way for us to know if these things are true.  God has once again reached out to his children in love and brought forth another record of ancient scripture comparable to the Bible called The Book of Mormon: Another Testament of Jesus Christ. Notice how we have the Old and New Testaments of the Bible, which testify that Christ will come, and here we are blessed with yet Another Testament of Jesus Christ and his divinity and mission. Words at the end of the Book of Mormon in Moroni 10:3-5 ring true to all those that read it ponder the message it contains, and ask God to know if it is true.

 3 Behold, I would exhort you that when ye shall read these things, if it be wisdom in God that ye should read them, that ye would remember how ^amerciful the Lord hath been unto the children of men, from the creation of Adam even down until the time that ye shall receive these things, and ^bponder it in your ^chearts.

 4 And when ye shall receive these things, I would exhort you that ye would ^aask God, the Eternal Father, in the name of Christ, if these things are not ^btrue; and if ye shall ask with a ^csincere heart, with ^dreal intent, having ^efaith in Christ, he will ^fmanifest the ^gtruth of it unto you, by the power of the Holy Ghost.

 5 And by the power of the Holy Ghost ye may ^aknow the ^btruth of all things.

I know that you can find out if this message is true. I know because I myself have tried the experiment, and asked God. He has answered my prayers through the Holy Ghost, and I have been able to come to know that these things are true. As a humble representative of Christ I invite you to do the same.
