Sounds like a description of SkyPilot and a few other mainstreamers around here.

That's fine with me - as I expect that from you. You also believe that Golden Plates were dug up in Cumorah Hill near Palmyra, New York that were buried some 1400 years earlier by the man named Mormon, and that Joe also dug up a gigantic pair of spectacles which he called "the Urim and Thummim" that allowed him to translate the Golden Plates from "Reformed Egyptian" to the BOM. You believe that. You also believe BOM claims such as elephants in the Western Hemisphere and advanced metal producing capabilities in America before 400 A.D.

You also believe that Smiths 27 "wives" and Young's 17 "wives" were a good thing.

Fortunately, the final determination of what God says, what truth is, and what God judges isn't up to you.

If I were you, I would be taking a hard, long look at the life you raised in and that you live now.

Are you 100% sure you are in God's grace? Is what your LDS church teaches true?

Remember, someday the now open door of Grace will close shut. I pray you do not find yourself on the wrong side of it.

At that time the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. 2Five of them were foolish and five were wise. 3The foolish ones took their lamps but did not take any oil with them. 4The wise, however, took oil in jars along with their lamps. 5The bridegroom was a long time in coming, and they all became drowsy and fell asleep. 6"At midnight the cry rang out: 'Here's the bridegroom! Come out to meet him!' 7"Then all the virgins woke up and trimmed their lamps. 8The foolish ones said to the wise, 'Give us some of your oil; our lamps are going out.' 9" 'No,' they replied, 'there may not be enough for both us and you. Instead, go to those who sell oil and buy some for yourselves.' 10"But while they were on their way to buy the oil, the bridegroom arrived. The virgins who were ready went in with him to the wedding banquet. And the door was shut. 11"Later the others also came. 'Sir! Sir!' they said. 'Open the door for us!' 12"But he replied, 'I tell you the truth, I don't know you.' 13"Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day or the hour.

Matthew 25: 1-13

“If I were you, I would be taking a hard, long look at the life you raised in and that you live now.”

Well, let’s see, I was raised by hypocritical Southern Baptist alcoholics. What’s your excuse?
