Then obviously LDS Doctrine has changed in the last 40 years.
As for Grand-Gods, its irrelevant to my salvation, so I am not going to argue it.
O Contraire'. To even acknowledge that there might be a God above our God or a God besides our God could be very detrimental to your eternal destination. God leaves no room for other Gods either before him, after him or contemporaneous to him. There is one God. Not simply one God for us. But one God, period. You will not become a god or a God or a GOD. You have God's word on that one.
Answer this one question: Does the LDS Church teach that God "became" God by obedience to the laws and ordinances of the gospel?
I have been completely hones in answering the questions you pose in spite of the twisted When did you stop beating your wife tone they have.
I'm looking for clarity. I'm not baiting you, I just want you to explain what it is that you believe. I told you what I believed when I was an LDS. Apparently the LDS Church either doesn't believe that anymore, despite the fact that you have a 130 year history of expressly teaching that doctrine, or you are attempting to conceal it. Let's get it out in the open. Lets show the world our differences.
But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear: (1 Peter 3:15 KJV)
Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me. (Isaiah 43:10 KJV)
How does that square with LDS beliefs?
