It is truly sad you are so blinded. The LDS priesthood power is NOTHING. All power comes from GOD, but I testify the the so-called “priesthood power” of the LDS MOCKS GOD and is of Satan. The authority to act in the name of God COMES FROM GOD ALONE! Yet you apparently choose to walk in blindness and error.

I have NEVER seen an LDS priesthood holder control the elements, nor do I ever expect to. My authority, and the authority of all believers comes from Christ and Him alone, not some denomination.

YOU:
And because they do not come from Catholicism, protestants, or non-denominational churches the same faces will be here on FR, mocking and ridiculing them.

LOL.. That is just funny.

YOU:And then all the bibles, crosses, mocking, ridiculing won’t save you.

Not worried, Christ has ALREADY SAVED ME! I am washed in His precious blood. I am rasomed, healed, restored, and forgiven by the sacrifice of the Son of God on the Cross. NO ONE CAN EVER TAKE THAT AWAY FROM ME.

But do you have that same assurance? Do you know with 100% assurance that if you were to die today, that you would be in the presence of God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Ghost? Have you “done all you can do?” Somehow, I doubt that.

I have that assurance. And you can to, just drop the whole “religion” thing and seek after a “relationship” with Jesus Christ.

ya think?

Yes. Ultimately all power is from God. But the mistake you make is not understanding that God gives righteous men the right to act in His stead.

Acts 8:17 - 20
17 Then laid they their hands on them, and they received the Holy Ghost.
18 And when Simon saw that through laying on of the apostles' hands the Holy Ghost was given, he offered them money,
19 Saying, Give me also this power, that on whomsoever I lay hands, he may receive the Holy Ghost.
20 But Peter said unto him, Thy money perish with thee, because thou hast thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money.


As you can clearly see....well...at least I can. That the power of God can be used by men whom God has authorized to do so.
I have NEVER seen an LDS priesthood holder control the elements,
That's too bad. I have seen some pretty amazing miracles by way of the priesthood.
nor do I ever expect to.
Well....seeing as you're not LDS..that's kind of a given isn't it?
And because they do not come from Catholicism, protestants, or non-denominational churches the same faces will be here on FR, mocking and ridiculing them.

Unfortunately it's not funny. It's true. Even with my sense of humor I can't find anything funny about that. The implications are too severe.
Not worried, Christ has ALREADY SAVED ME!
And now we come to the greatest heresy that satan has ever perpetrated on the human race.

No. You are not saved.

Matthew 10:22
22 And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that endureth to the end shall be saved.


In the Saviors own words, you have to endure to the end in faith. Then you SHALL be saved.

Proclaiming yourself saved is blasphemy. It is supreme arrogance.

You have not endured to the end, therefore you can not be saved at this time.
Do you know with 100% assurance that if you were to die today, that you would be in the presence of God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Ghost?
I'm guaranteed to have at least a five minute(or so) audience with the Savior. Now whether or not He allows me to stay, that's entirely up to Him. I very much hope so.

But as of now, as the scripture correctly points out, I haven't endured to the end yet.
