The word of Lord be damned, full speed ahead.
2 Nephi 1 wrote:5 But, said he, notwithstanding our afflictions, we have obtained a land of promise, a land which is choice above all other lands; a land which the Lord God hath covenanted with me should be a land for the inheritance of my seed. Yea, the Lord hath covenanted this land unto me, and to my children forever, and also all those who should be led out of other countries by the hand of the Lord.

6 Wherefore, I, Lehi, prophesy according to the workings of the Spirit which is in me, that there shall none come into this land save they shall be brought by the hand of the Lord.
(Thanks Doctor Steuss for quoting this in another thread recently.)

Leviticus 19 wrote:33 And if a stranger sojourn with thee in your land, ye shall not vex him.

34 But the stranger that dwelleth with you shall be unto you as one born among you, and thou shalt love him as thyself; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God.
Matthew 25 wrote:41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:

42 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink:

43 I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.

44 Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?

45 Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me.

It is sad to see so many Mormons go MAGA. To abandon their values. Essentially join a cult that conflicts with their faith.

I wonder if they are actually abandoning their values at all. Look what happened when the prophet recommended COVID vaccination: there was a flood of accusations that he was now apostate.

My take on that was that these folks accepted the LDS faith/values as a veneer - just like the evangelicals for Trump. Perhaps they simply found the association of Mormonism with ETB right-wing politics to be convenient.
