Mormon Church urges its members to get vaccinated
WND ^ | 08/13/2021 | WND Services

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, otherwise known as the Mormon church, urged its congregation to get vaccinated for COVID-19 and wear masks. The Church addressed its Thursday statement to all its global members. The First Presidency, consisting of the prophet and his two counselors signed the letter. All three have received the vaccine and broadcasted the process on social media.

“We find ourselves fighting a war against the ravages of COVID-19 and its variants, an unrelenting pandemic,” the statement begins. “We want to do all we can to limit the spread of these viruses. We know that protection from the diseases they cause can only be achieved by immunizing a very high percentage of the population.” The Church’s prophet, Russel M. Nelson, was a career heart surgeon until 1984.

“To limit exposure to these viruses, we urge the use of face masks in public meetings whenever social distancing is not possible,” the statement read. “To provide personal protection from such severe infections, we urge individuals to be vaccinated. Available vaccines have proven to be both safe and effective…”

Somehow experimental vaccines derived from aborted fetal cells and forced on children became acceptable to the mainstream Churches…

Revelation 18:4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. 5 For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.

Do you have to wear magic underwear when you get vaccinated?

Why would a god need to be vaccinated?

Why should you get vaxxed if you ARE wearing magic underwear? Shouldn’t that protect them?

16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:

17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

While the vaccine may not be the “mark of the beast” in and of itself, it is the gateway through which it will come to fruition.

Think vaccine passports, papers for interstate travel, being fired for refusing to get vaccinated etc etc etc...

It is freely admitted that the current “vaccines” for Covid have become ineffective against the new variants, but now we are told that they never were meant to stop it, just make the symptoms less severe. Of course this is more of a made up claim than anything that can be proven one way or the other.

Looks like another “Drink the Kool Aid” incident in America. It’s becoming more and more frequent.

A good read:

I’ve thought a lot of every Mormon I’ve known. Thankfully, I’ve never met RINOmney.

A proud woman -Trish Regan - was fired from FOX for saying the Virus was being Politicized.

Now, it’s clear it’s all Politics.

I wonder what the Mormon church, or Twitter, or any of the behemoths would say about Hydroxychloroquine.

It’s brutal Politics. It’s just that simple.

One thing I can say about my Mormon friends: they are honest.

Why would the head profit want to potentially off all his members? They are not under Jim Johnson, in Jonestown.

Mormons in public life, obviously guided by church opinion, were always critical of Trump morally.

Notice the silence about Joe Biden morally?

Suddenly, it’s all good.

Hookers, drugs, vibrator shows, bribes, and foreign money are perfectly fine.

Biden has a granddaughter he won’t recognize or acknowledge.

Gosh! Wouldn’t you think that future gods would be immune to a simple little flu?

I’ve been a member of FR for quite sometime and I’m still amazed at the anti-Mormon sentiment. After all there are quite a few Mormon Freepers, including yours truly.

I’m just like you, my two grown children are Jewish by birth, because there mother is Jewish. I served OUR country on active duty for nearly 23 years, and I still work with the military as a contractor. I like guns, motorcycles, good tequila, and beer.

Why do Freepers bash other Freepers for their religious beliefs. Mormons are Christians, believers in Jesus Christ. Which beliefs, held by Mormons negatively affect you? Its not like we’re on a jihad to kill, enslave or tax all infidels.

One of the big rules on FR is to “be nice” to other Freepers. I don’t know why FR won’t enforce that rule and why a lot of you ignore it.

Accurate spelling and that contains your answer.

I don't doubt that RINOmney is compromised and corrupted. Why would we doubt the "head profit" would be also...?

You are sorely mistaken. I’m very conservative as are a large majority of Mormons. A very large majority of Mormons support Trump, as I do. I disagree with church on this and I absolutely disagree with just about everything biden has done and is doing.

They're just repeating what the authorities tell them.

I doubt they have much of an opinion about HCL.

Utah was very enthusiastic about HCL. Then a controversy started, and they probably don't want to relive all that.
