For those who have neighbors, friends, family or acquaintances whose mormonism they defend on FR, some thought should be given to the above noted words of mormon leaders through the past 180 years.
Besides, the US Senate is already under Mormon Control.
What is their stand on gay marriage and ordination of gay clergy?
“The father and son “, came to the boy Joseph Smith? Which one of the fourteen visions was that?
Self Ping for later
(I dissagree with starting this up again. It’s so 2009.)
Some choice. It’s between muslim communist and a Mormon socialist. We’re so screwed.
OK, so I don’t plan on converting to the Church of Latter Day Saints.
Now tell me, which is worse as POTUS, a Mormon, a Muslim, or an athiest.
Until that time we are told to obey the laws...and im the US inparticular to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States because it is an inspired document.
There have been numerous former leaders, who have left the church and had occassion to attack it who would try and get people to believe that the church somehow is bent on "taking over" the United states and making some kind of religious government to prepare for Christ's coming and that simply is not true.
I have been in the Church for 42 years and held numerous leadership positions and no such occurance or desire or plan or hope has ever been discussed.
In fact, Ezra Taft Benson, who later became the President of the Church, wrote oft about the "Heavenly banner" of the Constitution and how he firmly believed that however tattered it may become (and it is tattered right now by leftists and progressives seeking to destroy it), that when Christ returned to this earth the US Flag would still be flying over a constitutional Republic governered according to the dictates of the US Constitution as it was inspired of God for that very purpose.
So, sorry, the idea that the LDS CHurch is bent on or planning to "take over" the US Government and re-write the constitution is a sham on its face, and shameful to all those LDS people who have spilt their blood in the defense of this nation and its constitution...and who hold that oath to the constitution sacrosanct to this day.
When Christ returns, all the world will bow at His feet and recognize Him as Lord and Savior and He will reign Himself through the Millenneum and beyond.
I’ve got one verse that can destroy the whole doctrine of Mormonism, or any other relgion:
Eph. 2:8-9
“For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith —and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— 9 not by works, so that no one can boast.”
So - what I read: Mormons are going to try to be the agents of the “one world religion” many of us Dispensationalists believe will be set up, with the AntiChrist ultimately being the object of worship...
Then, 7 years later... they are gonna get a great big surprise!
Responses appriciated. Thank-you.
The questions that I have in regards to the Mormon faith is these two, why the “extra book” called the Book of Mormon and why you do not put a Cross on the top of your temples?
Without the Cross of Christ, there cannot be a risen and living Lord.
