President Ezra Taft Benson of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints has told its youth at the time of his Presidency that it is the Final Hour before the coming of Jesus Christ, that this would be the final generation who would see Jesus Christ. So I thought I'd do a chronology of the events and restorations of each of the Latter-Day Prophets.

Part of the signs of the Second Coming involves Earth events. These are natural disasters and are to be distinguished from manmade destructions. Terrestrial events happen every year, so many people do not identify them as pertaining to the Second Coming. Yet I have identified that 2017 is when most of the signs begin. But other significant events previously occurring are mentioned. The key has been identifying the signs in the heavens from John in Revelation chapter 12.

Of all those who have come to Earth there is none more influential than Jesus Christ. But when was He born? December 25th? There have been prophets who have prophesied of his coming and have told that there would be signs of his coming. But what I am about to tell you will shock you. Don't get me wrong, he did come to Earth, but there was a sign indicating the actual year and time he was born.

The signs of the Coming of Jesus Christ are happening now. Knowing this is the period of time, we can look at major historical events in the world, but specifically in the United States. This can be listed in a chronology to see how the big picture is lining up for his second coming. This book is just a chronology. For an identification and interpretation of each of these events please refer to my specific books on the events and the signs.

Travis Wayne Goodsell has only given a couple of sacrament talks in his life. His first talk on repentance was destroyed, but his Tribute to Joseph Smith survived and is here presented in its entirety. The talks on idolatry and service were never given.

Jesus is the most important and influential figure in all of history. Yet scholars cannot find evidence of the existence of Jesus Christ. But now we have the dates, not just for his birth, but for his death. The signs in the heavens testify to the life and death of Jesus Christ and do so in a manner that fulfills the prophecies of the ancient prophets. Such knowledge strengthens faith and gives hope for his second coming.

The Lunar Eclipse on the 10th of February 2017 was not visible due to the cloud cover in the skies. It nevertheless occurred. So did the events on Earth occur that the signs in the Heavens symbolized. The ancients knew the signs in the Heavens and lived their lives based upon them. Today we have lost that knowledge and that connection. Yet despite this loss of knowledge, the symbolisms the celestial phenomenon represent still occur.

In the theme of Joseph Fielding Smith's Answers to Gospel Questions, Travis Wayne Goodsell discusses questions still asked by members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.

This is the book that got Travis Wayne Goodsell arrested as a "Terrorist Threat", labeled mentally ill, tortured, silenced, and locked away in the Utah State Mental Hospital for 6 years of his life. His crime was using his Constitutional right to redress grievances pleading to get his kidnapped children back. The book is a commentary on the United States Constitution and includes a discussion of types of government and economic systems.

All of us dream. It's our body's way of resting after our day. But what has surprised me is that I have dreams that are prophecy dreams. These are dreams that tell me my future. All of these prophecy dreams have been identified as such by the Spirit. The Spirit is that entity from the presence of God that communicates God's will for us. I've never known how they will come to pass, but as the time for fulfillment draws near I marvel as I watch it unfold.

Miracles happen because of my faith. My faith is not my will, but God's will for me. By following the Spirit, I learn what God's will is and then I implement it. God doesn't want bad things to happen to anyone, so when we follow the Spirit the way is paved for us to accomplish what God has revealed to us. Sure, there are evil people who come along to try and hinder our progress, but that is not God's fault. By following the Spirit, God will get us back on path and turn the weakness caused by others into a strength.

I endured deprivation torture for the first two weeks I spent in jail. All for the crime of redressing grievances about my kidnapped children. Yet in this darkness I was given a light to carry me through and endure.

How can you see signs in the heavens if you do not know how to read them? The scriptures talk about events surrounding Jesus Christ that were represented by astronomical signs and about future events marking his second coming. It must be remembered that in the Book of Mormon, Samuel the Lamanite was not the president of the Church, nor was he a prophet, Nephi was.

Philosophy of Mormonism is the first of its kind in taking the LDS theology and rendering it into a philosophical manner of speech. It also includes an overview of logic and ethics.

The spirit is not well known in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. It is not the Holy Ghost, but is what the Holy Ghost is made of. This book goes over what the spirit is from scripture and also how to identify it.

There is coming a great division in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. It has been prophesied by prophets of old and warned about by modern-day prophets. There have already been divisions by The Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, now just called The Church of Christ and the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. And there have been groups that have left the Church or have been excommunicated from the Church. But there will be a fourth division.

In this book I go over the signs in the heavens on the day of Lavell Edwards' death. What I found was a celestial tribute to this prominent man.
