I am Sion

“And they shall call thee, The city of the LORD, The Zion of the Holy One of Israel.”

Jesus Christ

LDS Vault

I am a Christian — a member of the Church of Jesus Christ, one particular member of His Body (1 Corinthians 12:27–28), of the Church of God, which He purchased with His own blood (Acts 20:28).

Like Jesus Christ, who came to do the will of His Father, we belong to Almighty God and seek to serve Him. His will matters to us, and we trust in God and believe Him (John 6:38; 1 John 4:5–6). And herein we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before Him: for God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things (1 John 3:19–20; John 8:43-45).

Therefore, I am not LDS, nor am I affiliated with, a member of, or representative of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. This site is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or representative of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

I am also not affiliated with any particular denomination. My identity is in Jesus Christ and His Church. He is the Bridegroom, and His Church is His bride (John 3:29; Ephesians 5:25; Revelation 21:2).

Welcome

This vault is a place of Preserved Holiness.

As I Appeared in Heaven illustration

The TRUTH is declared:
ONE God. ONE Lord. ONE faith. ONE baptism. NO OTHER GOD.

There are not many gods — there is NO OTHER.

Let there be no divided worship,
no competing principalities, powers, or gods,
no substitutes for the One who is Almighty God.

— Ephesians 4:4–6; Isaiah 43:10

1 Corinthians 1:18 (KJV) “For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.”

Colossians 2:14 (KJV) “Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;”

This is where the true nature of Christ remains preserved from corruption.

Not a secret, but sacred. Not hidden, but preserved.

Inside lies Christ, the eternal Word made flesh, veiled in humanity but never diminished. Here, you’ll find Christ as He truly is — not the exalted man of Latter-day teachings, but the eternal God Himself. What you’ve been taught may resemble holiness, but this vault contains the unfiltered truth — the Testimony of Holy Scripture.

Step into the vault. Not to steal, but to be restored.

Whether you are LDS, from one of its many branches, or simply curious, I invite you to explore these pages with an open heart. May you find truth that challenges you, inspires you, and leads you closer to Christ.

So I say a little prayer and hope that this place takes you to the Lord God, who reaches out to save you in love and truth forever.

At the heart of this vault is the foundation of all truth: Salvation is through grace, through faith and fidelity, in love with Jesus — the very beauty of our God.

It’s not about becoming more of yourself or aspiring to godhood, but about drawing nearer to the one true God. This cannot be achieved by our human efforts, works, or religions not inspired by the Holy Spirit, but by men.

The question often asked is: “Who has the complete picture?” The answer is simple: the Holy Bible, through communion with the Holy Spirit.

Christianity is not a system—it is a relationship. Like a marriage. God gave His life for us through His Son, Jesus Christ, and we respond by giving our lives to Him—our eternal ‘I do.’

Only those who truly follow Christ can come to God. The LDS and their offshoots may claim faith, yet their teachings stray from the eternal Word and the life of Jesus. Most of modern Christianity, though claiming the name, reflects little of true discipleship. True Christianity is not a system, a label, or a human institution — it is a living, personal relationship with the Creator and Savior.

For God manifested Himself as Jesus Christ — a truth ultimately denied by LDS doctrine, but core and critical to all truth and holiness.

Therefore: a prophet of the LDS is very different from a prophet of the Lord God. LDS prophets speak from institutional authority, but God's from divine intimacy. And their lives prove it by supporting His faithfulness, integrity, and authority. The difference could not be greater.

Colossians 2:8–9 — Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.
For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.

1 Timothy 3:16 — “And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, and received up into glory.”*
* This can only be Christ Jesus. This is God.

John 1:1 “The Word was God”
John 1:14 “The Word was made flesh.”

True prophets of the Lord God thoroughly embrace God's Word and Will out of intense love for Him.

This "vault" contains doctrinal comparisons and scriptural analysis for those seeking truth beyond tradition. Each section is a key—unlocking clarity where confusion once reigned.

Non-discerners...shoo: You're wearing a blindfold in a house full of light.
