You “know” nothing.
Your prophets tell you what to do, your stake president, your bishop, your elders, etc., etc. ad infinitum.
God gave you a brain, put it to use.
Goodness after all these years I really been missing out
I been doing everything on my own and what the Lord guilds me to do.
I must have gotten it all wrong the Lord told me to pray always and also to listen to the Holy Spirit.
John 14
23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.
24 He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father’s which sent me.
25 These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you.
26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.
27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
Acts 1
24 And they prayed, and said, Thou, Lord, which knowest the hearts of all men, shew whether of these two thou hast chosen,
D&C 8
2 Yea, behold, I will tell you in your mind and in your heart, by the Holy Ghost, which shall come upon you and which shall dwell in your heart.
D&C 9
8 But, behold, I say unto you, that you must study it out in your mind; then you must ask me if it be right, and if it is right I will cause that your bosom shall burn within you; therefore, you shall feel that it is right.
Are you sure those Bible verses were "translated correctly"? I wouldn't want you relying on some verses that may be "corrupt or "inaccurate" now. They could lead you astray.
By the way, if Jesus' words "shall not pass", what needed "restoring"?
I just witness how your lips lack the love that the Lord try to show His children!
Embezzlement from a law firm.
I gotta say I’m conflicted on this one.
;-)
Got any crime stories involving Baptists, Catholics or Presbyterians? Get on it, dude! Crime and religious affiliation is obviously a preoccupation for you.
If Jesus' words "shall not pass away", what needed "restoring"? It's a very simple question, why can't you answer it?

Those passages mean nothing because you're using JS's own words to contradict the words of Jesus Christ. As I've told you before, I don't believe a word that came out of JS's mouth. Christ himself said His words "shall not pass away".
Again, without using Joseph Smith's words, what needed "restoring"?
If you can't or won't answer the question factually, don't reply as I'm done with the thread hijack.
Who cares what an anti things I feel sorry for you wife to live with such a backbitter!
Tsk, tsk.
For sure.....gave me a headache.
well are you not a gossip and a backbitter?
Tsk, tsk.
Now it’s on to the personal attacks?
It was a question!
BTW I see this is getting real
Can someone in one breath go around trashing another ox with out getting gord themselves!
No it wasn’t. It may have been framed as one, but it was more of an insidious allegation disguised as a question.
It would be like asking me “When did you stop beating your wife?”
Sorry, I’m done. You’re not interested in adult dialogue.
Remember Resty this is the Religion Forum and not only are you not supposed to “get personal” and you are not ever supposed to talk about the posters family.
So tsk tsk...... I am really surprised at you.
“adult dialogue” ,-)
