>>of at least 1 Supreme Court appointment, it’s too damned dangerous to risk this election to prove some point.

The 10th circuit court including Utah is a conservative counter balance to the terrible 9th circuit.

Utah's state Supreme court has some of the most conservative judges in the nation.

WAS THE VIRGIN MARY REALLY A VIRGIN?

THE MORMON CHURCH TEACHES THAT:


Our God is an exalted man of flesh and bone

He physically lives with His many wives near the star Kolob

Worthy Mormon men can also become Gods, like Him

Our God is one of many Gods and serves a God of His own!

God came down to earth in the flesh and was the physical father of Jesus

You should not trust the Bible in this matter. It is wrong.

Trust their prophets.

Read what the Mormon leaders say about our Savior and the Virgin Mary.

GODS MUST HAVE WIVES

If none but gods will be permitted to multiply immortal children, it follows that each God must have one or more wives. God, the Father of our spirits, became the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ according to the flesh. Orson Pratt, The Seer, page 158

MARY AND GOD WERE MARRIED

The fleshly body of Jesus required a Mother as well as a Father. Therefore, the Father and Mother of Jesus, according to the flesh, must have been associated together in the capacity of Husband and Wife; hence the Virgin Mary must have been, for the time being, the lawful wife of God the Father: we use the term lawful Wife, because it would be blasphemous in the highest degree to say that He overshadowed her or begat the Savior unlawfully. Orson Pratt, The Seer, page 158

JOSEPH WAS HER SECOND HUSBAND

Inasmuch as God was the first husband to her, it may be that He only gave her to be the wife of Joseph while in the mortal state, and that He intended after the resurrection to again take her as one of his own wives to raise up immortal spirits in eternity. Orson Pratt, The Seer, page 158

The man Joseph, the husband of Mary, did not, that we know of, have more than one wife, but Mary the wife of Joseph had another husband.

—Brigham Young, Journal of Discourses, 11:268

THE BIBLE IS WRONG

Joseph Fielding Smith, 10th Prophet of the Mormon Church: “They tell us the Book of Mormon states that Jesus was begotten of the Holy Ghost. I challenge that statement. The Book of Mormon teaches No Such Thing! Neither does the Bible!” —Doctrines of Salvation, Vol. 1:18

GOD IS A MAN

“Christ was begotten of God. He was NOT born without the aid of man and that man was God!” —Doctrines of Salvation, Vol. 1:18

AN ACT OF THE FLESH

The birth of the Savior was as natural as are the births of our children; it was the result of natural action. He partook of flesh and blood- was begotten of his Father, as we are of our fathers. —Brigham Young, Journal of Discourses, 8:115

In relation to the way in which I look upon the works of God and his creatures, I will say that I was naturally begotten; so was my father, and also my Savior Jesus Christ. According to the Scriptures, he is the first begotten of his father in the flesh, and there was nothing unnatural about it. —Heber C. Kimball, Journal of discourses, 8:211

NOT OF THE HOLY GHOST

‘’When the Virgin Mary conceived the Jesus, the Father had begotten him in his own likeness. He was not begotten by the Holy Ghost...

‘What a learned idea’ Jesus, our elder brother was begotten in the flesh by the same character that was in the garden of Eden, and who is our Father in heaven.” (He really does mean Adam...Editor.)

‘Now Remember from this time forth, and forever, hat Jesus Christ was not begotten by the Holy Ghost. will repeat a little anecdote. I was in conversation with a certain learned professor upon this subject when I replied to this idea- “If the son was begotten y the Holy Ghost, it would be very dangerous to baptize and confirm females and give the Holy Ghost o them, lest he should beget children to be palmed off on the Elders by the people, bringing the Elders into great difficulties.”...But what do the people in Christendom, with the Bible in their hands, know but this subject? Comparatively Nothing.”—Brigham Young, Journal of Discourses, Vol. 1:50-51

Bruce R. McConkie, deceased member of he 12 Apostles (d.1985) and leading LDS theologian, writes in MORMON DOCTRINE

SON OF GOD: God the Father is a perfected, glorified, holy Man, an immortal Personage. And Christ was born into the world as the literal Son of this Holy Being; he was born in the same personal, real, and literal sense that any mortal son is born to a mortal father. There is nothing figurative about his paternity; he was begotten, conceived and born in the normal and natural course of events, for he is the son of God, and that designation means what it says.—page 742

SON OF MAN: Christ is the Son of Man, meaning that his Father (the eternal God!) is a Holy Man. “In the language of dam, Man of Holiness” is the name of God. Page 742

SON OF MARY: ...but the Holy ghost is not the Father of Christ and when the Child was born, he was “the Son of the eternal Father. —page 743

ONLY BEGOTTEN SON: These name-titles all signify that our Lord is the only Son of the Father in the flesh. Each of the words is to be understood literally. Only means only, begotten means begotten, and Son means son. Christ was begotten by an Immortal Father in He same way that mortal tal men are begotten by mortal fathers. —page 546

TO BELIEVE THE MORMON DOCTRINE

IS TO BELIEVE THE BIBLE TEACHES A LIE!

WHAT DOES THE WORD OF GOD

SAY ABOUT IT?

Isaiah, Chapter 7

13 And he said, Hear ye now, O. house of David; Is it is a small

thing for you to weary men, but will I ye weary my God

also? 14 Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign;

Behold, a Virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall

call his name Im-man’-u-el.

Luke, Chapter 1

34 Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man? 35 And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall over shadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.

Matthew, Chapter 1

18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost.

Can you even imagine Mormon leaders believing that God came down from in heaven to have sex with Mary his daughter, and conceived Jesus with her??

HOW CAN THE MORMONS

TEACH SUCH THINGS?

2 Corinthians Chapter 4

3 But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ who is the image of God, should shine unto them.

HOW YOU CAN BE BORN AGAIN

Any person, right where he or she is, can have a personal relationship with the living God through Jesus Christ, and the assurance of eternal life, through prayer to the real God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob (the God of the Bible).

1) Admit that (on your own) you are separated from God by sin,

unable to save yourself (Romans 3:23; Isaiah 64:6).

2) Be willing to turn from sin, to let Him change your life (Acts 26:20)

3) Believe that the real Jesus Christ died to pay the penalty of your personal sins and will take them away (Romans 5:8,9). Accept this in faith as a free gift from God (Ephesians 2:8,9).

4) invite Jesus Christ into your life to be your personal Lord and Savior (Revelation 3:20; John 1:12;1 John 5:11-13).

5) Read God’s Word (the Bible) daily and allow Him to take over the management of your life. Let His Holy Spirit fill you and lead you daily. Seek out a Christian church of believers who stand on God’s Word and it alone.

Yeah, but if Romney loses because people come out to vote against him because he’s Mormon, we won’t be able to elevate any of these judges now will we?
