[Revelations] Fayette, New York. Doctrine and Covenants 29. Sins are forgiven, sin no more. Gather in one place. Wicked to burn. Twelve Apostles to judge Israel , then resurrection. But first, signs in heaven , then all kinds of destruction, plagues. Great and abominable church to be cast down by fire. Men deny God after millennium, final destruction. New heaven and earth. Michael to blow trump starting resurrection. Wicked are cast into everlasting fire. Spiritual creation preceded temporal creation. All spiritual to the Lord. Adam created to be an agent unto himself, succumbed to temptation, cast out of the garden. Angels sent with gospel to give Adam opportunity to repent and be saved. Until accountability, children cannot sin and are saved through the Only Begotten.
