Acceleration

  This is not the way I like to do things but....that doesn't seem to prevent me from sharing the following!  I need to tell you where you can read the entire article and for the life of me I can't remember!  When I remember or find it, then I will share it with you.  I'm just wanting to share because it seems so timely.  Read all of the mentioned scriptures.  That acceleration of the gospel has certainly even taken a greater leap ahead with the October announcement of ages of Missionaries now changed.  This is what we have Prophets for...to tell us the facts/truth.  give us a heads-up/ warning voice.  This is so powerful to read.  apologies again for just throwing it out there with no reference source for you to verify it and enjoy all that he said by reading entire article.  It just feels right to share it.  So I am. 
 
 
'Moving more rapidly'

Excerpting entire passages of scripture from Matthew 24, 2 Nephi 28 and Mormon 8, Elder Ballard firmly established that ancient prophecies regarding the last days preceding the Savior's second coming aren't just being fulfilled but are coming to pass at an accelerated rate.

"I'm telling you what the Savior said would be the signs of the acceleration towards that day when He shall come," he said. "We could stay here for a couple of hours talking about all of the prophecies of what will occur in the last days. We're in the last days — you can quote me on that. And it is moving more rapidly."

Conditions that Elder Ballard specifically cited as fulfillment of prophecy and signs of the times include "pornography and how real affection and how true and real love are being disturbed by Satan and his minions" (see Matthew 24:12); "an acceleration of the gospel going to all nations" (see Matthew 24:14); and how "Mother Nature is letting its power be seen throughout the world at a more accelerated pace" (see Mormon 8:30-31).
