Some wild claims are normal for God

Some wild claims are made at Zion Coalition. Know what? Some wild claims are made in the Bible, the Book of Mormon, and the entire history of God speaking to humanity. A burning bush talked. A donkey talked. Nephi built a ship with no training. A resurrected Jesus appeared in the Americas. Paul was caught up into the third heaven. Joseph saw the Father and the Son.

Wild is normal for God.

The real question is never, “Is this claim too strange?”

The real question is, “Is this God?”

So, what?! — meaning: do you even care enough about the truth claims being made at Zion Coalition to take any of them to God for vetting?

This isn’t rhetorical finger-wagging. It’s the pivot point. If you don’t care, then nothing I say will move you. If you do care—even a little—then you have a way forward.

How to know

There is only one way Jesus has ever taught us to know.

Ask. And it shall be given you.

Latter-day Saints are especially blessed with a spiritual protocol—a standard, a laboratory of the soul. Alma 32: the experiment on the word. James 1: ask in faith, with real intent. Moroni 10: read, ponder, pray. The whole pattern assumes something staggering:

God is willing to tell ordinary people the truth. Not the elite. Not the experts. Anyone.

Practice the experiment

If Zion Coalition presents a claim—whether it’s gentle, provocative, or so unusual it vibrates your skepticism—that claim is not yours to accept on my authority. I am not responsible to prove anything to you. Zion Coalition is not built on persuasion; it is built on invitation.

You are responsible to take it to Jesus.

This includes the lighter, stranger, more joyful claims—like whether Jesus really did redeem certain Guns N’ Roses songs for sacred use. It includes the heavier claims—like whether Zion is already emerging in hidden, early form. It includes the personal claims—whether Jesus is actually calling you into a role inside His coalition.

How would you know? The same way saints have always known:

• You try it. You taste it. You plant the seed.
• You pray. You listen.
• You wait for the swelling motions, the enlightenment of mind, the quiet yes, the unmistakable peace—or the equally unmistakable absence of it.

Some people sense truth instantly, like spiritual tuning forks. Others need to wrestle with it, experiment, let it sit in their soul. Both responses are holy.

Even rock songs that Jesus has redeemed need to be lived with. Sing them for a moment. Sit with Him. Ask: “Is this lovely, or is this noise? Is this redeemed, or does it need more of You?”

Zion Coalition is simply an amplifier—a witness, not a dictator. We point; Jesus confirms. We plant seeds; He grows what He chooses. We offer signs; He interprets them.

Final word

Ultimately, the viewer—the seeker—decides what matters, what rings true, what bears fruit. The assumption underneath everything we publish is this:

Jesus can guide you. He knows how to reach you. He will—when and if the timing is right.

Just like He chose His timing for introducing the Book of Mormon to the world, He chooses His timing for introducing parts of Zion, hidden worlds, redeemed music, unexpected revelations, and the thousand tiny seeds that form the early Kingdom.

My job is to witness. Your job is to ask. His job is to answer.

So, what?! If you care at all, start with a paragraph and a prayer. See what grows.
