"And behold, Enoch saw the day of the coming of the Son of Man, even
in the flesh; and his soul rejoiced, saying, The Righteous is lifted
up, and the Lamb is slain from the foundation of the world; and
through faith I am in the bosom of the Father, and behold, Zion is
with me!"--Ibid.
"And great tribulations shall be among the children of men, but my
people will I preserve; and righteousness will I send down out of
heaven; and truth will I send forth out of the earth, to bear
testimony of mine Only Begotten; his resurrection from the dead; yea,
and also the resurrection of all men."--Ibid.
"And it came to pass that Noah continued his preaching unto the
people, saying, Hearken, and give heed unto my words; believe and
repent of your sins, and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ, the
Son of God, even as our fathers did, and ye shall receive the Holy
Ghost, that ye may have all things made manifest; and if ye do not
this, the floods will come in upon you."--Ibid.
"And if thou shalt die, yet thou shalt possess it [the land of
Canaan], for the day cometh, that the Son of Man shall live; but how
can he live, if he be not dead? He must first be quickened. And it
came to pass that Abram looked forth and saw the days of the Son of
Man, and was glad, and his soul found rest, and he believed in the
Lord; and the Lord counted it unto him for righteousness."--Inspired
Translation, Gen., xv, 11, 12.
"The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from between
his feet, until Shiloh come: and unto him shall the gathering of the
people be."--Gen., xlix, 10.
"The Lord hath visited me [Joseph], and I have obtained a promise of
the Lord, that out of the fruit of my loins the Lord will raise up a
righteous branch out of my loins; and unto thee, whom my father Jacob
hath named Israel, a prophet; (not the Messiah who is called Shiloh;)
and this prophet shall deliver my people out of Egypt in the days of
thy bondage. And it shall come to pass that they shall be scattered
again; and a branch shall be broken off, and shall be carried into a
far country; nevertheless, they shall be remembered in the covenants
of the Lord, when the Messiah cometh; for he shall be made manifest
unto them in the latter days, in the spirit of power, and shall bring
them out of darkness into light; out of hidden darkness, and out of
captivity unto freedom."--Inspired Translation, Gen., 1, 24, 25.
