Zion -The City of Heaven-

This is the rough description of some vague visions of a movie that came to my mind while reading the Pearl of Great Price in the Book of Moses, Chapters 5 & 6

Wickedness, persecution of saints. Show the ancients, etc. Adam. They testify of God and of the Gospel—repent and believe in the Son of God—the Messiah.

Jared teaches his son Enoch the Gospel from his childhood. He tells of Adam and how after being cast out of the Garden of Eden, he built an alter and offered sacrifices. How the angel came and explained the sacrifice and proclaimed the coming of the Son of God who should die that all who believe on his name and repent would be saved from sin.

Mocking of people.
Narration of Enoch’s call to be a prophet, etc.

Start now the story of a man Mahijah? who is searching for the truth and is converted by Enoch’s preaching.

Enoch tells of his dreams and visions which show the creation of the Heavens and Earth and the wickedness of the people, God weeping, the flood and the coming of Christ, and the restoration and the last days etc. (This could be portrayed as he preaches, interspersed throughout the story)

Show the gathering of the people, fleeing from armies and saved by miracles: moving rivers, mountains, calling beasts, etc.

Show the building of a city. The goodness of the people.

Show some wars among the wicked and how they fear Zion. Show missionaries sent among them.

End with the whole city being taken up in fire and light (See picture of it in the Church’s set of pictures) as Methusela looks after it.

End Credits and then show a quick clip of Noah pleading as he loads the Ark and then the rain comes, thunder...

Subscript: “Noah came before the flood; we are nearing the time of the fire of the return of Christ…” or something like that. Or maybe that in the last days it will be as it was in the time of Noah…

More credits.
