Art Bulla, the Apostle of Jesus Christ in these the last days:
FIRST VISION
While journeying on foot about 10:00 P.M.Dec 29, 1969, in the east, being
inducted into the armed forces the next day, being on the way to the bus
station to travel to the armed forces induction station in Raleigh, N.C, I
received the following vision, while on the road on foot:
December 29, 1969, while enwrapted in a heavenly vision, It seemed that I,
Art Bulla, was removed out of my body, or whether in the body or out of it I
could not tell, and I beheld his face, and He spake unto me face to face as
one man speaks unto another for forty-five minutes or an hour, and whether
in the body or out of it, I could not tell, for I beheld his glory, which
surpasses all understanding, and spake while in the vision, in a much better
tongue than any spoken by man at this time, which I supposed to be the
Adamic Tongue, my understanding being quickened by such might and
intelligence and power that it is beyond the mind of man unaided by the
Spirit of Revelation which dwells yet within me, to comprehend, and indeed
no words can convey, for it seemed that I was transfigured before Him of
whom I speak, my God in whom I bear record as others have before me, that He
lives, for I too have seen Him. And tongue cannot express his matchless
might, glory, power and intelligence, and I shall forever adore his glory,
for having once beheld his face and tasted of his love and might and power
and beheld things which I cannot convey, for there is no language, I must, I
MUST obtain his presence, and I shall not be content with anything else,
this world or its allurments. And having been ordained unto the Holy Order
of God which is after the Order of Melchizedec, even the Holy Apostleship,
the keys of which I hold, I bear record of my Father, for I have seen Him
and conversed with him, and I testify that He shall return in this the
Latter Day as soon as my people are straightened from this crooked and
perverse generation which shall be destroyed by the might of his power, and
that they be gathered out according to the Revelations which are being given
unto me, almost daily at this time, which is one of the darkest periods and
most wicked because of unbelief in the history of the earth, that Zion may
descend and that the heavens and the earth mingle and become One, as prayed
by the Only Begotten, even my brother Jesus of Nazereth. Yea, my Father, I
pray that thy will be done and thy Kingdom come on earth as it is in heaven.
Even so. Amen.

1 O GOD, thou [art] my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for
thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water
is;
2 To see thy power and thy glory, so [as] I have seen thee in the sanctuary.
3 Because thy lovingkindness [is] better than life, my lips shall praise
thee.
4 Thus will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy name.
5 My soul shall be satisfied as [with] marrow and fatness; and my mouth
shall praise [thee] with joyful lips:
6 When I remember thee upon my bed, [and] meditate on thee in the [night]
watches.
7 Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings will
I rejoice.
8 My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me.
(Old Testament | Psalms 63:1 - 8)
3 Incline your ear, and come unto me: hear, and your soul shall live; and I
will make an everlasting covenant with you, [even] the sure mercies of
David.
4 Behold, I have given him [for] a witness to the people, a leader and
commander to the people.
(Old Testament | Isaiah 55:3 - 4)
Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, Section Six 1843-44 Pg.364:
I shall read the 24th chapter of Matthew, and give it a literal rendering
and reading; and when it is rightly understood, it will be edifying.
I thought the very oddity of its rendering would be edifying anyhow -- "And
it will be preached, the Gospel of the kingdom, in the whole world, to a
witness over all people: and then will the end come." I will now read it in
German [which he did, and many Germans who were present said he translated
it correctly].
Interpretation of Scripture
The Savior said when these tribulations should take place, it should be
committed to a man who should be a witness over the whole world: the keys of
knowledge, power and revelations should be revealed to a witness who should
hold the testimony to the world.
1 Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, thou that leadest Joseph like a flock;
thou that dwellest [between] the cherubims, shine forth.
2 Before Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh stir up thy strength, and come
[and] save us.
3 Turn us again, O God, and cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved.
17 Let thy hand be upon the man of thy right hand, upon the son of man
[whom] thou madest strong for thyself.
(Old Testament | Psalms 80:1 - 3,17)
The commemoration of the advent of Joseph Smith, Jun., who is the greatest
Prophet of Israel (after Jesus of Nazareth), into this benighted world on
the 23rd of December being the first reason to celebrate toward the end of
the month of December, in lieu of the profanely artificial goy holiday of
Nimrudmas, the second reason is the vision of God and Christ in the third
heaven beheld by Art Bulla on the 29th of December, in the year of 1969. I
bear record by the Holy Ghost given me that Art Bulla is the One Mighty and
Strong (i.e., Messiah to Ephraim and Manasseh) prophesied by Isaiah (Ch. 28)
and Joseph Smith (D&C 85) and that Art Bulla did indeed experience the
ultimate vision in the manner of the Ancients and Joseph Smith. Art Bulla's
vision is the single most important event of the twentieth century. Let the
fools make light of the sacred things of God unto their condemnation. Let
the humble and meek and downtrodden of the earth, be they in China, in
Russia, in the land of Jerusalem, in South America, in Central America, in
North America, or elsewhere, receive the truth of the Lord God of Israel,
hallowed be His name forever and ever. Amen.
Yea, down with Chernobyl, or Wormwood.
Journal of Discourses, Vol.8, Pg.130, Brigham Young, July 22, 1860:
Our duty is to make the best of our present position. We have the Gospel of
life and salvation, to make bad men good and good men better. We are to
preach, exhort, expound, continue in our duty, be fervent in spirit, bearing
and forbearing with our brethren, being filled with love and kindness; and
we will yet, perhaps, get some of our froward connections into heaven.
Jesus said, when the woman caught in adultery was brought to him, "He that
is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her." We are all
sinners, and it is our duty to cast sin from us when we learn what it is.
If we are a little good, become a little better; if we have a little light,
get a little more; if we have a little faith, add to it; and by-and-by we
shall be prepared to build up and beautify Zion, and to be exalted to reign
in immortality and be crowned with the Gods.

I pray for all the families of Israel scattered to the four corners of the
earth and for all Gentiles who have care for the house of Israel and even
for the wicked that they repent, that the Father may grant them mercy. He
that hath ears to hear, let him hear and repent, while it is day.
12 And then, O house of Israel, behold, these shall come from far; and lo,
these from the north and from the west; and these from the land of Sinim.
(Book of Mormon | 1 Nephi 21:12)
1 And it shall come to pass, when all these things are come upon thee, the
blessing and the curse, which I have set before thee, and thou shalt call
[them] to mind among all the nations, whither the LORD thy God hath driven
thee,
2 And shalt return unto the LORD thy God, and shalt obey his voice according
to all that I command thee this day, thou and thy children, with all thine
heart, and with all thy soul;
3 That then the LORD thy God will turn thy captivity, and have compassion
upon thee, and will return and gather thee from all the nations, whither the
LORD thy God hath scattered thee.
4 If [any] of thine be driven out unto the outmost [parts] of heaven, from
thence will the LORD thy God gather thee, and from thence will he fetch
thee:
5 And the LORD thy God will bring thee into the land which thy fathers
possessed, and thou shalt possess it; and he will do thee good, and multiply
thee above thy fathers.
6 And the LORD thy God will circumcise thine heart, and the heart of thy
seed, to love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul,
that thou mayest live.
7 And the LORD thy God will put all these curses upon thine enemies, and on
them that hate thee, which persecuted thee.
8 And thou shalt return and obey the voice of the LORD, and do all his
commandments which I command thee this day.
9 And the LORD thy God will make thee plenteous in every work of thine hand,
in the fruit of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit
of thy land, for good: for the LORD will again rejoice over thee for good,
as he rejoiced over thy fathers:
10 If thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to keep his
commandments and his statutes which are written in this book of the law,
[and] if thou turn unto the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all
thy soul.
(Old Testament | Deuteronomy 30:1 - 10)
3 And I will gather the remnant of my flock out of all countries whither I
have driven them, and will bring them again to their folds; and they shall
be fruitful and increase.
4 And I will set up shepherds over them which shall feed them: and they
shall fear no more, nor be dismayed, neither shall they be lacking, saith
the LORD.
