I Said: IMHO you are among those who often do not understand the meaning of the words you keep using.

U Said: You have every right to your opinion.

I only wish you were as gracious about my faith as you are about my opinion.

U Said: I know EXACTLY what it means; and it's NOT one of the Mormon Shifted Definitions that abound on these threads.

Mormon shifted definitions? I keep linking the dictionary, fine, here is a link to my definition cult Please tell us what your definition of the word cult is, and please explain why it should be different than the dictionary.

U Said: It'sd no WONDER that you are confused about whether I know what it means!

I wonder if you know because you keep misusing the word according tot eh Dictionary definition.


From your next post: Perhaps you can help me UNDERSTAND just what Joseph Smith 'learned' to be UNTRUE about PRESBYTERIANISM?

This will probably offend you, but hey, why ruin a perfect record? Joseph Smith learned that the Trinity was a false doctrine, how? Simple, Jesus and God the Father appeared to him and they were separate personages, thus Joseph Smith knew just as Stephen knew that God the father and Jesus were separate beings.

You believe that Jesus and God are separate manifestations of the same substance. I have no problem with you believing that, and I would not be arguing with you except that you are here trying to tell me I am wrong, again, I wish you could be as accommodating about my religion as you are about my opinion.

Why does the BIBLE describe what you have written as EVIL?
 
 
NIV Galatians 1:6-9
 6.  I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting the one who called you by the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel--
 7.  which is really no gospel at all. Evidently some people are throwing you into confusion and are trying to pervert the gospel of Christ.
 8.  But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let him be eternally condemned!
 9.  As we have already said, so now I say again: If anybody is preaching to you a gospel other than what you accepted, let him be eternally condemned!
 
 
 
ANYBODY???
 
Like this fine looking fellow???
 
 
 
 
 

2 Corinthians 11:12-15
 12.  And I will keep on doing what I am doing in order to cut the ground from under those who want an opportunity to be considered equal with us in the things they boast about.
 13.  For such men are false apostles, deceitful workmen, masquerading as apostles of Christ.
 14.  And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light.
 15.  It is not surprising, then, if his servants masquerade as servants of righteousness. Their end will be what their actions deserve.

Like THESE guys??
 
 
17 It no sooner appeared than I found myself delivered from the enemy which held me bound. When the light rested upon me I saw two Personages, whose brightness and glory defy all description, standing above me in the air. One of them spake unto me, calling me by name and said, pointing to the other—This is My Beloved Son. Hear Him!
 
 

Ephesians 2:1-2
   As for you, you were dead in your transgressions and sins,  in which you used to live when you followed the ways of this world and of the ruler of the kingdom of the air, the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobedient.

So you do NOT think; like Joseph Smith; that Presbyterianism is an ABOMINATION.
