Duncan Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 So, any predictions for General Conference? I think Elder Jensen of the Pres. of the 70 is getting released and so another one will be called, Marlin K. Jensen and Keith Hilbig are emeritus this time around. Sad to see both Elder Jensen's go as I have hoped either would've been called to the Twelve. I am hoping for Temples in non US areas. New Seventies others getting released I imagine. Any other thoughts?
The Nehor Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 Announcement that the time to gather to Missouri is about to begin and preparations must be made. The temple must be built as well.So far I've predicted this every Conference and I'm batting .0000. One day I will be right because I'm going to do it every single time even if I'm dead at the time. 2
cinepro Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 A few weeks ago, we had our meeting schedule shortened to 1 hour (Sacrament meeting only). They told us it was because the building was needed for some meetings that afternoon, but I'm pretty sure it was a pilot program.Based on the happiness of the ward members, I would have to say it was a rousing success, and hopefully this will be the conference where they roll it out Church-wide.

The more likely scenario is that the temple will be announced first, and Church members will be allowed to gravitate to it in their own time and way (with some perhaps being designated by revelation).

Zakuska Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 At least one talk will mention the ills of the Internet and text-tonics and the pandemic of Pornography. 1
altersteve Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 At least one talk will mention the ills of the Internet and text-tonics and the pandemic of Pornography.I'm sure Jesus will be mentioned too, at least a few times.
Kenngo1969 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 ... So far I've predicted this every Conference and I'm batting .0000. One day I will be right because I'm going to do it every single time even if I'm dead at the time.Put a clause in your will that your designee must log onto MADB before every conference to make the prediction.
Kenngo1969 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 I'm sure Jesus will be mentioned too, at least a few times.What's your over-under?
Kenngo1969 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 I predict:Singing,Prayer,Singing,Speaking - mingled with tears,Singing,Speaking,Singing,Prayer.I'm glad that you anticipate the Spirit touching you to such a degree that you'll be moved to tears. We'll be expecting you to log on following the experience and tell us which address did the trick!

Any other thoughts?How about that long-awaited for revelation that monogamous same-sex temple sealings are now approved? I mean, if it happened with blacks and the priesthood in 1978, then surely it must only be a matter of time, right?
The Nehor Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 That's my dream.We have nothing to dream but dreams themselves.
Pahoran Posted March 28, 2012 Posted March 28, 2012 How about that long-awaited for revelation that monogamous same-sex temple sealings are now approved? I mean, if it happened with blacks and the priesthood in 1978, then surely it must only be a matter of time, right?Oh, of course.In an infinite universe, everything that can happen ultimately will happen. Not only is "gay" inevitablism um, inevitable, but it's likewise inevitable that a little old lady in Topeka, Kansas will one day discover that same-sex attraction can be cured by an infusion made from aspirin, cider vinegar and manuka honey. Don't ask me how a little old lady in Topeka, Kansas will get hold of manuka honey; that's inevitable too.Regards,Pahoran

Sine Saw Square Posted March 28, 2012 Posted March 28, 2012 I've got som Manuka honey on my kitchen shelf. Good stuff that.

I mean seriously, "no possessions"? Edited March 28, 2012 by cinepro

KevinG Posted March 28, 2012 Posted March 28, 2012 Without reading the rest of this thread first (sorry if I'm repeating) I predict talks on,,,Faith in ChristRepentanceBaptismThe Gift of the Holy Ghost...and subsets of those topics.

The more likely scenario is that the temple will be announced first, and Church members will be allowed to gravitate to it in their own time and way (with some perhaps being designated by revelation).When I visited Adam-Ondi-Ahman was amused to see functioning farms with little farm houses. Each had the name of a couple on the mailbox - in temporary plates. Missionary couples I'm guessing?
Duncan Posted March 28, 2012 Author Posted March 28, 2012 I am wondering if they are changing the Presiding Bishopric, as Bishop Burton is like 75 and Bishop Edgely is 70 or over and they have been intact since 1995
KevinG Posted March 28, 2012 Posted March 28, 2012 At least one talk will mention the ills of the Internet and text-tonics and the pandemic of Pornography.That falls under the general heading of repentance... but yes we will continue to hear this one until it is no longer a plague upon our members and the world. Not holding my breath.
