Living in the last days, we, too, concern ourselves with the "signs of the times," always wondering whether we are really prepared. We wish that the prophet would announce the time of His Coming even though that day, and hour, no one knoweth; no, not the angels of God in heaven (Matthew 1:40 JST). Yet, here in the Book of Mormon we are given a vivid description of what apocalyptic destructions are like. We should not wonder about phrases like all the earth shall quake, or the sun shall be darkened, or there shall be weeping and wailing among the hosts of men, or there shall be a great hailstorm (D&C 29:13-16). How terrible will these destructions be? Mormon gives us the answer in his description of the destructions which occurred among the Nephites at the time of Christ's death. Even scriptural history repeats itself.

3 Days of Darkness Fulfilled! Will it Happen Again?
The apocalypse, or end of the world, has caught the imagination of religious and non-religious alike. Consumed with a morbid curiosity, human nature has conjured up a hundred different scenarios. Many movies have dealt with the subject in one form or another. Countless sermons have expounded on and speculated about the Second Coming and its attendant destructions. Others have preferentially studied the book of Revelation in an uninspired attempt at understanding the prophesied plagues and sequence of events.

THE COMING FORTH OF THE SEALED PORTION OF THE BOOK OF MORMON
Interesting comments by WOOD ZONE:
"We have seen a lot of changes lately.
I have, due to circumstantial evidence as well as based on many prophecies, said that I believe that the meeting at Adam-Ondi-Ahman has already occurred in the fall of 2017.
I believe we will know that as a fact at some point within the next few years.
I believe that we will have the Sealed Portion of the Book of Mormon within our reach as we prepare to bring about the Terrestrial life here in preparation for the coming of the Savior in Glory. You will see it within your natural lifetime.
Ask yourself what you just felt with my bold statements. Did you feel a stupor? Or did you feel a feeling of peace and distill over your mind? In that, you have your answer.
I had a woman comment on my blog years ago (2014 or 2015) that "furthermore, the sealed portion of the Book of Mormon is being translated at this time". I do not doubt it. I believe all things are being readied to come forth and prepare a people who are of one heart and one mind to receive the Savior. It is a process. Many are being translated, as we speak. I believe President Nelson is going through that process.
We are going to see amazing things come about.
We need to repent and live for it:
"One apostle in particular expounded on the future coming forth of these records and what he thought they would contain. In a discourse delivered at the tabernacle in Ogden on 18 May 1873, Orson Pratt said: “Will these things be brought to light? Yes. The records, now slumbering in the hill Cumorah, will be brought forth by the power of God, to fulfill the words of our text, that ‘the knowledge of God shall cover the earth, as the waters cover the great deep.’”⁵ Regarding what these records might contain, Elder Pratt taught, “When these plates, now hidden in the hill Cumorah, are brought to light we shall have the history of the Old Testament much more fully, with the addition of a great many prophecies that are not now contained in the record.” These additional prophecies are, according to Elder Pratt, “the prophecies of Joseph in Egypt . . . [and of] Neum, a great Prophet who prophesied concerning Christ; also those of Zenos and Zenock, and others of which only bare reference is given.”⁶ Thus we are to understand that such records will yet serve an important role in the future of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints."
