You may not see the difference between glorifying yourself while trying to earn exaltation, and the Biblical act of sincerly loving your fellow man, but the Christians on board here DO recognize the difference.

Night and Day....Black and White.

Joseph Smith taught that loving God meant loving lots, and lots of women, including other men’s wives. You must be careful who and what you base your understanding on.

That is why I have been careful not to give ear to any of your tripe.

What you seem to be incapable of understanding the LDS are not earning anything, they are allowing the Lord to edify them by being summisive unto the Lord.

Mosiah 3: 19
19 For the natural man is an enemy to God, and has been from the fall of Adam, and will be, forever and ever, unless he yields to the enticings of the Holy Spirit, and putteth off the natural man and becometh a saint through the atonement of Christ the Lord, and becometh as a child, submissive, meek, humble, patient, full of love, willing to submit to all things which the Lord seeth fit to inflict upon him, even as a child doth submit to his father.

Alma 7: 23
23 And now I would that ye should be humble, and be submissive and gentle; easy to be entreated; full of patience and long-suffering; being temperate in all things; being diligent in keeping the commandments of God at all times; asking for whatsoever things ye stand in need, both spiritual and temporal; always returning thanks unto God for whatsoever things ye do receive.

Alma 13: 28
28 But that ye would humble yourselves before the Lord, and call on his holy name, and watch and pray continually, that ye may not be tempted above that which ye can bear, and thus be led by the Holy Spirit, becoming humble, meek, submissive, patient, full of love and all long-suffering;
