If you knew anything about us, you would know better than that. Watch out, your ignorance shows.

But we DO 'know' what your organization has published over the ytears.
Of course given any sufficiently large body of work, you can find a a quote, or just excerpt from one and say anything you want. That does not make it true.
Elsie, I have never consciously tried to take your words or any of your scripture quotes out of context, can you say the same?

I Said: Here are my two questions: 1) I understand that you do not believe my interpretation, but what does it mean to a non Mormon that the believers held all things in Common?
I Said: Why do you keep insisting we 'explain' our postion; when you continue to ignore the Scripture?
I can and do read very well thank you. I have read and understand the scripture from my perspective, and according to my beliefs, I am simply trying to understand your perspective which you now seem unwilling to share. I remember a scripture about a light and a bushel... Oh well, if your beliefs are to shaky to be published on an open forum, I guess I will not embarrass you by asking you, then again, unless you have multiple logins, I didn't, did I?

You are being fed an accurate and loving view of us by some posters here.

You're kidding; right??
You have found me out, there is always an element of humor when dealing with Anti Mormons, and when doing technical support.
Who knows what PEBKAC means... (grin)
in this case its more PEBBAP...(It's a techie thing)

24 And, notwithstanding we believe in Christ, we keep the law of Moses, and look forward with steadfastness unto Christ, until the law shall be fulfilled.
It's too bad you don't 'believe' this:
"Therefore no one will be declared righteous in his sight by observing the law; rather, through the law we become conscious of sin,"
Rom. 3:20
There you go again, claiming to know what I do and don't believe...

Getting a reward for good works is not the same as earning your salvation through them. Pretty basic difference.
So why do you guys keep misstating our belief since you claim to knwo the difference.
Since you have already figured out that I am having fun with you guys, lets try it this way can you accurately state teh Mormons belief on Works and faith? Com on, this is your chance to show you actually understand, if you get it right, I promise to stop posting for at least four hours, if you get it wrong, you have to go get some sunlight for four hours (I know it hurts the eyes, but it really is good for you) Deal?
You can even ping in some other Mormons like sevenbak, or Grig if you don't think I will be honest, they will keep me on the "Straight and narrow", come on, try.

Watch out, your ignorance shows.Saddly; you are right.
You don't, however, need to worry; for yours is well hidden.

You have READ it; you just don't BELIEVE it.

Several threads have already been locked for "poor behavior."
LISTEN UP!
Discuss the issues all you want, but do NOT make it personal.
To: Elsie; Old Mountain man
I Said: That does not make it true.
You Said: It doesn't make it false; either.
I cannot help but notice your conversation with Old Mountain Man, and note that you are having one of the most juvenile arguments about who is more ignorant that I have witnessed on this forum in some time.
I offer my mothers advice to you "It is better to remain silent and have people wonder if you are stupid than to open your mouth and remove all doubt."
I will state that to argue with someone about what they actually believe is to begin an argument that simply cannot be won, discretion in this case is truly the better part of valor and in this case would be wise as well.
I do not expect you to take this instruction from me, I expect you will make some wisecrack and probably sign it "Mormon Dude". Well, at least you are consistent, and predictable.

Read post #298 regarding ‘making it personal and being nasty ... unless Mormons are immune from censure, in which case carry on, we will figure it out.
