This has worked out mighty well!
--MormonDude(There is no NEED to boast; for our good works speak for us!)
I'm still trying to find out the UNTRUTHFULLNESS of PRESBYTERIANism that Joseph Smith claimed to have 'learned'.
I just have to take the time here, to tell you what a nice guy Marvin J. Ahston was. I knew him in person and he was a wonderful, humble human being.
Of course that doesn’t make his theology right though.
And his message is spot on. Boasting isn't Christ's way.
When someone boasts of their own accomplishments, or even when someone does a nice thing thinking of the accolades that they’ll earn, they are focused upon themselves, and have fallen into the trap of pride.
In Anglo-Saxton societies, the strong and proud were revered. The early Christian Monks were other-thinking and devoted to doing good for others - they exhibited converse motivations when they introduced Christianity to these cultures.
If seeing a weak old woman with a purse on the street, the Anglo-Saxton would refrain from stealing her purse, even though he could, because it would make him appear weak.
The Christian would refrain from stealing her purse because he would be thinking of the damage such action would cause to the woman and anyone who might be dependent upon her.
The first response is “me-centered” and focused only upon themselves, the second response is “other-centered,” and focused on the welfare of others.
What would Jesus do, and the more important question in WHY.

Resty, exactly how does this “Not Boast” thing work again?
Matthew 5:14-16
14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.
15 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.
16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
Any of You don’t like LIGHT it is ok to close your eyes!:)
"Whiner's Convention".
Hypocrisy, it ain't just for breakfast.
You ain’t just Whistling Dixie...
Any of You don’t like LIGHT it is ok to close your eyes!:)

The scripture that the mormons dont like goes like this...
Jhn 3:19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
Jhn 3:20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.
Jhn 3:21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God. John 3:19-21
Jhn 1:3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
Jhn 1:4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
Jhn 1:5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.
The Internet is shining the light of truth into the darkness and evil of mormonism...
Ya all have those feelings about the Lord’s Church...
It is best you remember when the day comes in the world to walk on bye sinse you already recent Zion!
Any of You don’t like LIGHT it is ok to close your eyes

The morg would like that wouldnt they ????
Everyone to just close their eyes and pretend the dirt on mormonism doesnt exist...
But the LIGHT that is illuminating and exposing the darkness and filth that is mormonism wont go out ...
For too long members of mormonism have had their eyes shuit because the leaders of the cult told them to do so...
The members are even ordered not to look at the truth od mormonism in the Internet...
What was that about “holding high our Title of Liberty” ???
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-religion/2195256/posts
What happened to the liberty to the right to know the truth about mormonism ???
A right promised under the Constitution of the United States ???
Jesus Himself said that ...
And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” John 8:32
Members of the mormon cult are learning of truth about mormonism...
That it is based on lies and that they are in bondage...
They are escaping the greedy life sucking clutches of mormonism and they are leaving in droves...
Especially the former “Lamanites” in the Islands of the Seas...
When they find out they are descended from an Asian ancestor, and not a Hebrew one...
In many areas no new “converts” are being added to the already pumped up rolls, eventhough those same doctored rolls depict numbers which outway the actual nationwide increase in births etc...
In Third World countries this is also because the people are so poor they cannot afford the membership fees...10% of their scanty income...
Joining the local country club would be a far more easily reached goal...
Unlike Christians who QUIETLY slip into these same countries and feed, cloth, house, the people and built hospitals, schools and churches, provide life saving medicines, the morg does not ...
However the morg does demand that those same people they refuse to help, risk their lives and health to give up their teeth to build useless monstrosities which are nothing but staues to the greed of the mormon god...
Mormonism thy god is Molech...
You comment on my personal feelings about the mormon lord, Joey Smith’s cult...
The Cult of Joey Smith of the Latter Day Swindlers ???
That one ???
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
That would come under mind reading...
