"English will be the Universal Language of the World."
(John Adam's 1770's)
"For then will I turn to the people a pure language, that they may all call upon the name of the Lord, to serve him with one consent." (Zephaniah 3.)
The Hebrew word for "pure" is given as clear, choice, chosen. Therefore, the chosen language to which Zephaniah refers is THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE, which has become almost a universal language, and a second language to almost all nations on Earth-"that they may call upon the name of the Lord to serve him with one consent." (Zephaniah 3:9.)
"The KJB Became the book of which the people spoke and acted."
(Melvyn Bragg The Book of Books The Radical impact of the KJB 1611-2011 Chapter 5.)
see this link The History of the English Language since the Roman times.
There are some elements in God's good purpose for the human race that required the English tongue for promulgation, that is to promote and make widely known to all. The English language being the most versatile of any language in which man can express himself:- it has become the "highway" of the Worlds thought, poetry and religion. ( see William Walker "In the Isles of the Sea"page 83.)
Every Man, Woman and Child spoke the word of the lord they lived and kept the word of the lord. That is the 10 commandments and as a result they would be blessed to become a Great Nation and even their name would be called GREAT
GREAT BRITAIN
And they shall be a blessing to the World.
2 And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing:
3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed. (Genesis 12: 2.)
It is a Fact of History that there has not been any other nation in the history of the world that has had the prefix Great before it's name, that is the nation of GREAT BRITAIN.

A BIBLE A BIBLE
We have a Bible and need no more Bible
1 But behold, there shall be many—at that day when I shall proceed to do a marvelous work among them, that I may remember my covenants which I have made unto the children of men, that I may set my hand again the second time to recover my people, which are of the house of Israel;
2 And also, that I may remember the promises which I have made unto thee, Nephi, and also unto thy father, that I would remember your seed; and that the words of your seed should proceed forth out of my mouth unto your seed; and my words shall hiss forth unto the ends of the earth, for a standard unto my people, which are of the house of Israel;
3 And because my words shall hiss forth—many of the Gentiles shall say: A Bible! A Bible! We have got a Bible, and there cannot be any more Bible.
4 But thus saith the Lord God: O fools, they shall have a Bible; and it shall proceed forth from the Jews, mine ancient covenant people. And what thank they the Jews for the Bible which they receive from them? Yea, what do the Gentiles mean? Do they remember the travails, and the labors, and the pains of the Jews, and their diligence unto me, in bringing forth salvation unto the Gentiles?
5 O ye Gentiles, have ye remembered the Jews, mine ancient covenant people? Nay; but ye have cursed them, and have hated them, and have not sought to recover them. But behold, I will return all these things upon your own heads; for I the Lord have not forgotten my people.
6 Thou fool, that shall say: A Bible, we have got a Bible, and we need no more Bible. Have ye obtained a Bible save it were by the Jews?
7 Know ye not that there are more nations than one? Know ye not that I, the Lord your God, have created all men, and that I remember those who are upon the isles of the sea; and that I rule in the heavens above and in the earth beneath; and I bring forth my word unto the children of men, yea, even upon all the nations of the earth?
8 Wherefore murmur ye, because that ye shall receive more of my word? Know ye not that the testimony of two nations is a witness unto you that I am God, that I remember one nation like unto another? Wherefore, I speak the same words unto one nation like unto another. And when the two nations shall run together the testimony of the two nations shall run together also.
9 And I do this that I may prove unto many that I am the same yesterday, today, and forever; and that I speak forth my words according to mine own pleasure. And because that I have spoken one word ye need not suppose that I cannot speak another; for my work is not yet finished; neither shall it be until the end of man, neither from that time henceforth and forever.
10 Wherefore, because that ye have a Bible ye need not suppose that it contains all my words; neither need ye suppose that I have not caused more to be written.
11 For I command all men, both in the east and in the west, and in the north, and in the south, and in the islands of the sea, that they shall write the words which I speak unto them; for out of the books which shall be written I will judge the world, every man according to their works, according to that which is written.
12 For behold, I shall speak unto the Jews and they shall write it; and I shall also speak unto the Nephites and they shall write it; and I shall also speak unto the other tribes of the house of Israel, which I have led away, and they shall write it; and I shall also speak unto all nations of the earth and they shall write it.
13 And it shall come to pass that the Jews shall have the words of the Nephites, and the Nephites shall have the words of the Jews; and the Nephites and the Jews shall have the words of the lost tribes of Israel; and the lost tribes of Israel shall have the words of the Nephites and the Jews.
14 And it shall come to pass that my people, which are of the house of Israel, shall be gathered home unto the lands of their possessions; and my word also shall be gathered in one. And I will show unto them that fight against my word and against my people, who are of the house of Israel, that I am God, and that I covenanted with Abraham that I would remember his seed forever.

THE SAVIOUR'S EVIDENCE
One of the most profound statements ever made by the Saviour is to be found in the 21st chapter of Matthew; regarding the parable of the two sons, and of the householder.
28 ¶But what think ye? A certain man had two sons; and he came to the first, and said, Son, go work to day in my vineyard.
29 He answered and said, I will not: but afterward he repented, and went.
30 And he came to the second, and said likewise. And he answered and said, I go, sir: and went not.
31 Whether of them twain did the will of his father? They say unto him, The first. Jesus saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That the publicans and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you.
32 For John came unto you in the way of righteousness, and ye believed him not: but the publicans and the harlots believed him: and ye, when ye had seen it, repented not afterward, that ye might believe him. (Matthew 21: 28-32.)
The two sons were of course the House of Israel and the House of Judah ( note; for people not familiar with the terms; "House of Israel" and the "House of Judah". These two terms are not one and the same people. They are 2 distinct groups of peoples, which are also made up of other different groups of people. The House of Israel was and is made up of 12 tribes of peoples, They came from the 12 sons of Jacob see this link Jacob and Sons. Jacob as you may well remember had his name Jacob change by God to Israel. So all the sons(12 tribes) became known, as The House of Israel collectively. However round about 559 these unified tribe split into two groups because of disputation over the "birthright" (see The Lion and the Unicorn fighting for the Crown.to be added) Ten of the tribes settle in Samaria with the tribe of Ephraim at its head. Kept the title and name the House of Israel the Northern Kingdom. the other 2 tribes Judah and Benjamin formed the Southern Kingdom known has the House of Judah. see this link the Northern kingdom and the Southern Kingdom.
The father of the two sons approached the first son and said, "Son go work in my vineyard." At first the son refused, but afterward he repented and went. This is ISRAEL as explained above. Both ancient and modern. Ancient Israel refused to do the will of God, but modern Israel has become a great Christian nation serving the Saviour, firstly, through the promotion of British and American Protestant Bible societies, and today, by the Church and it's world wide missionary programme. The Church here is reference to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. but does not exclude either other Christian denominations.
The second son is the House of Judah (Jews), and he answered and said , "I go sir," but went not.
The Saviour then asked the chief Priests and scribes, "Which of the two did the will of the father?"
They answered him "the first."
Of course what the "Jews" did not realise was that by their answer they were condemning themselves, and the Saviour did not let them off lightly in his response,
"Verily I say unto you, that the publicans and the harlots go into the Kingdom of God before you."
This because they did not accept the testimony of john the baptist regarding himself.
