It's easy, folks. Where have you been all these years?:
“An economic depression would be grim but it would not change the reality of immortality. The inevitability of the Second Coming is not affected by the unpredictability of the stock market.
"Political despots make this world very ugly but they cannot touch that better world to come.
"A case of cancer does not cancel the promises of the temple endowment.
"'Thus the things of which we can be most certain are also those things which matter most. . . . We can have a bad day but still have a good life. We can have tribulation but see it paled by the resurrection. . . .
":All that matters is gloriously intact. The promises are in place.'"

I know this is true for my parents. They are in a bad way right now financially (they made some bad choices but hey god told them to at the time) and yet the church keeps hitting them up about tithing.
