Yes I did get the point of intervention and invitation. Salvation is an invitation but your statement that Jesus never intervened is wrong...I gave Paul as an example where Christ Himself certainly did intervene.

Your argument that those on this thread who “Intervene” and debunk the falsehoods Mormonism teaches as being wrong and not something Jesus would do does not carry water. Christ did so many times with the religious leaders as I have stated before...and it was certainly Christ's intervention as they attempted to smear His message before those he intended it for.

>>I gave Paul as an example where Christ Himself certainly did intervene.<<

I have to confess that I’m at a loss on that one. How did Jesus intervene with Paul?

>>it was certainly Christ’s intervention as they attempted to smear His message before those he intended it for.<<

I would not equate “giving His message” as intervention. Perhaps it’s our different perspective of what intervention is. I was thinking along the lines of the origin of this thread and our conversation that the way some feel it their calling to inform Mormons that they are wrong and seem to want to eliminate them from participating in the conservative movement.

I believe that it is not our place to convert anyone. We are simply God’s servants of telling people about the free gift of Salvation. Positive approach only. It’s the work of the Holy Spirit that draws a person to Him.
