“They Shall Be Drunken with Their Own Blood”

Joseph F. McConkie, Robert L. Millet

The twisting winds associated with the ever-destructive fires of contention will turn upon those igniting them. Wickedness will consume itself. The various elements of the church of the devil will war among themselves even to the point that they will become “drunken with their own blood.” Indeed, all who war against the house of Israel “shall fall into the pit which they digged to ensnare the people of the Lord. And all who fight against Zion shall be destroyed.” The great and abominable church will at this time (just prior to the Millennium) be destroyed. And in the midst of it all the Lord will preserve and defend his people as he did anciently.
