The Ancient Prophets
Saw Donald Trump.

Isaiah wrote about a servant who would arise in the last days. A specific man, not a symbol, not a metaphor, who would come forth to accomplish God's purposes among the nations. A man whose appearance would be marred, whose reputation would be destroyed, and who would nonetheless fulfill his divine calling.

John the Revelator saw the same figure in vision on the Isle of Patmos and described him as the rider on the white horse in the opening of the first seal, going forth conquering and to conquer.

The Book of Mormon speaks of him directly, in a passage that most members have read many times without recognizing what it actually describes.

These are not vague or symbolic references. They are precise. They are detailed. And when you place them side by side with what is happening in our day, the identification is unmistakable.

My name is Kelly Smith. I did not set out to identify a controversial political figure as a servant chosen by God. The conclusions in this book found me, not the other way around.

In November 2022, during a severe medical crisis where I fell out of bed gasping for breath, my understanding was opened in a way I cannot deny or explain away. Over the years that followed, through intensive study of Revelation, Isaiah, the Doctrine and Covenants, and the Book of Mormon, the pieces began to fit together. Some I had encountered years earlier and set aside. Others I had never seen at all. What I had never found, anywhere, was the full picture: the way these prophecies converge and point to a living man, and to events unfolding in our own day. It was never taught in any conference, classroom, or institute I sat in. I had to assemble it myself, one scripture at a time.

Let me be plain about where I stand. I am a lifelong member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I hold a current temple recommend, and I sustain the living prophet and apostles as God's authorized servants. I tell you that not to narrow this message but so you know exactly who is speaking to you. I claim no special authority and no office. Every member of my faith has the right and the responsibility to seek personal inspiration through the gift of the Holy Ghost, and I believe God speaks to sincere hearts in every tradition. That is all this is.

You do not have to share my faith to weigh what follows. Much of the case rests on the words of Isaiah and the book of Revelation, scriptures you may already know and can open for yourself. I am one believer who studied, who came to understand something, and who could not keep it to himself.

This book is the result.
