>>By your own logic, where is the word for Kolob in scripture, or the word, goddesses? or spirit children, etc?

GUIDE TO THE SCRIPTURES

Kolob

The star nearest the throne of God (Abr. 3: 2-3, 9). Abraham saw Kolob and the stars, Abr. 3: 2-18. The Lord’s time is reckoned according to the time of Kolob, Abr. 3: 4, 9 (Abr. 5: 13).

Abr. 3: 3-4, 9, 16

3 And the Lord said unto me: These are the governing ones; and the name of the great one is Kolob, because it is near unto me, for I am the Lord thy God: I have set this one to govern all those which belong to the same order as that upon which thou standest.

4 And the Lord said unto me, by the Urim and Thummim, that Kolob was after the manner of the Lord, according to its times and seasons in the revolutions thereof; that one revolution was a day unto the Lord, after his manner of reckoning, it being one thousand years according to the time appointed unto that whereon thou standest. This is the reckoning of the Lord’s time, according to the reckoning of Kolob. • • •

9 And thus there shall be the reckoning of the time of one aplanet above another, until thou come nigh unto Kolob, which Kolob is after the reckoning of the Lord’s time; which Kolob is set nigh unto the throne of God, to govern all those planets which belong to the same border as that upon which thou standest. • • •

16 If two things exist, and there be one above the other, there shall be greater things above them; therefore Kolob is the greatest of all the Kokaubeam that thou hast seen, because it is nearest unto me.

Abr ... Abr? Is that the fabricated ‘scripture’ Joe created from the Egyptian Papyri which were actually funerary documents for a mummy with whom the papyri were found? Bwahahaha

haha.. you cannot use a book that was made up by Joseph Smith to give authenticity to extra-biblical doctrine espoused by Joseph Smith. Like any solid biblical doctrine, it will be found in several places throughout the old and new testament. Please cite the use of this word somewhere in Christian scriptures.

Also interesting is the supposed Hebrew word that Kolob would come from. It would be the Hebrew letters kaph, lamed, dalet. This word comes from an unsed root word, according to Strong's, which means to yelp, or else to attack; a dog, hence by idiom, a male prositute. There is no Hebrew word used in the scriptures that would put the o vowel (often the letter vav, which makes an o, u or a v sound) is found.

One could make the argument that the name, Kolob, according to the Hebrew shows that it is false, because of the meaning of the word being a dog, or male prostitute. And if it does have the letter vav in one or more places, then it is not found anywhere else in scripture. Both point to false doctrine using this.
