Dec 30- D&C 1:17

We live in a pretty unprecedented day and age. It would be strange to expect the prophets of the Old Testament to warn us about perils in our day that were completely unheard of in theirs.  Which is why I am so grateful that revelation is not a thing of the past. That we have modern day prophets and apostles who can warn of of the calamities in our day and guide us to safety.
