Show me in the scriptures where any man ever took that honor upon himself, without being set apart by the laying on of hands by those having authority.
 
Ok...
 
 
NIV 1 Peter 4:11
   If  anyone speaks, he should do it as one speaking the very words of God. If   anyone  serves, he should do it with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory and the power for ever and ever. Amen.
 
 
 Philippians 1:14
   Because of my chains, most of the brothers in the Lord have been encouraged to speak the word of God more courageously and fearlessly.
 
 
 2 Corinthians 13:2-3
 2.  I already gave you a warning when I was with you the second time. I now repeat it while absent: On my return I will not spare those who sinned earlier or any of the others,
 3.  since you are demanding proof that Christ is speaking through me. He is not weak in dealing with you, but is powerful among you.
 

 
 Romans 15:18
   I will not venture to speak of anything except what Christ has accomplished through me in leading the Gentiles to obey God by what I have said and done--

You Bozo!

You STILL don't get it that our 'scriptures' have SUPERCEDED YOUR Scriptures!!!

OUR BoM and PGP and D&C's are ALL much greater in authority than your puny, incomplete scribblings!

WE go by what OUR Living Prophets® have said and written!

Isn’t it great to be ‘called’ to explain the reasons for our hope!!!

It makes for a great bible study and encouragement.

And one of the ways she will beat him is to start a smear campaign against all things Mormon, past and present.

Trouble is; some folks 'smear' is anothers facts and history.

I’m only pointing out your continued hypocrisy. Hypocrisy is a sin you know. So is pride.

You... you...

GENTILE!!

What the Lord has called an "everlasting priesthood", I am not going to take it on your authority that it has an end.
 
 

Yet, when the "To Whom It May Concern" item was published by WILFORD WOODRUFF, President of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints,

 and approved by President Lorenzo Snow, you take it that the new and an everlasting covenant of Polygamy DID end!

Does that pretty much sum up the cabal's beliefs about Mormons?

Apparently, in your mind, yes.

But there seems to be an AWFUL lot of LDS literature being posted that is being commented on - both positively and negatively.

Quotes grabbed tend to be relevant to the ideas being bandied about.

Sounds like a doable idea.

Too bad that a third party, with ALL the ‘right’ conservative values and ideals will NOT be voted for, no matter HOW neo-socialist the ‘Pub representative is!

How would Romney's Mormonism affect his presidency if elected?

How would Anyone's Religious Beliefs affect his presidency if elected?

If Anyone's 'religion' is not just some lame falsefront, then what it claims is true SHOULD influence the way he believes, lives and makes decisions about his life, and, presumably, how he'd (she'd?) lead a Country.
