The widely taught matter that the Northern nations of Europe, as well as England, had their fair share of scattered Israel so sifted within their people has long been known. Now days with such as DNA, Language development and etc., there are some who would even claim that Gods very Scriptures do not support the such sifting and scattering of Israel into the nations of the earth. To this end such matters of their so called 'proof' will be dispelled to the objectively open minded.

First as for DNA, much today is made concerning it. But to those who rightly believe in God's Bible, let them first be reminded that such DNA and scientific arguments predict in their theories that man's origin is from that such as relatives of apes, the mother Eve of the world is an African, and that Adam and Eve, Noah and the myths of the Hebrew Bible are also falsified by their findings. Now as the land of Israel has been crossed and swept many times by various groups of people, Israel and Judah themselves being so removed out of the land and supposedly back in the Biblically return of the Jews, who is to say in today's DNA of the region there is to be found the same DNA as was in that of Israel who was scattered in 700 BC? And since that DNA had, according to the Bible's own words, scattered among the nations of the earth, who is to objectively state for sure just whose DNA is who's DNA and whose is not? Somewhere along the centuries of such sprinkling of blood DNA over the nations of the earth back and forth what straight faced person can say today that this person DNA in this part of the world does not yield a match to another person's DNA in another part of the world that anything but the more recent descents can actually be determined; and NOT that this person here did not descend from some milliania past person back over there because the more recent DNA of a person over there today does not yeild their myopic guidelines of but a minute DNA fragment? Not only is there more to be learned from useing DNA thus, but just plan common sense dictates greater caution needs to be involved than what is being utilized today.

Second, as to language. What uprooted 'enslaved people' who are transplated into another people's land does not have their language altered either in whole or in a significant manner? If an enslaved people are placed in a land ruled by another people, are they not expected to learn the language of their masters? So much for the tracing of language.

Now as to using Scripture to prove or dis-prove other Scripture, such arguments abound and prove but little. The bottom line question is, do the Scriptures support Israel being scattered into the nations of the earth, particularly those designated as the 'northern' nations or not. To this I but refer to the LDS topical guide to such scripture references which do support such a wide distribution of the people of scattered Israel among the nations of the earth, which I must presume to include northern Europe and even England.

Now herein I have left the Book of Mormon related scriptures as well as other LDS related scriptures to the end to ask, which of these are not in harmony with the scriptures of the Bible? If anything is NOT in harmony, it would seem to be but today's theories and precepts of men and not of God. Whose precepts do you chose to accept and live by? Those of men or those of God?

If Israel has been scattered and sifted into all the nations of the earth, then certainly they have so been placed as well in the nations of the Cymry and Britain as well. And in America also, they are there. So who lies? They who say that Israel is there among the British and the Americans or those who would pretend that they are not? And in such circumstance, whose 'bloodline' so to speak is to be considered dominate in the eyes of the Lord, Who is there to bless the nations of the earth as being as those of the children of Abraham? Is it not by this that the nations are to be blessed and to be counted as Israel? No longer should or eventually will the Jews spurn the Gentiles, for indeed in the eyes of God they all, that is all of mankind is become as of Israel and blessed as Abraham's seed! Like a 'magic dust' has the nations and peoples of the earth been sprinkled with the salt of Israel, and all well become as Abraham's children as they return and come unto God. Who doth stand to teach against these such workings of God?
