BTW, the Mormons don’t pray over someones soul, they act as them (by proxy), and they take oaths and perform rituals in the name of this person, mostly people they have never met and are not related to.

Mormons really believe they take the place of Christ by saving these people. Been there, done that, performed the same rites.

Thank you for that insight. Part of my family is Mormon (my older sister and her descendents) so I'm completely convinced my name either already is or someday soon will be in their records. But I don't care. I know what I believe and so do all in my family.

As for my grave, my headstone is already purchased. It will have crosses and cites Romans 6:23 - "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord." That is sufficient evidence for me.

And God who knows all and sees all will know the truth that I am a sinner saved by the grace of Christ and HE is the ONLY one I truly care has a clear understanding of my faith and I have no doubt that he does despite any hocus pocus from third parties, even family members.
