I just think it’s odd how much time you spend going after Mormons. Don’t you have something better to do with your time?
- - - - - -
No, I do not. Nothing is more important than bringing souls to Christ.
I am called, by God, to witness to the LDS and to show the truth of their teachings. I could no more ignore that than I could deny my Savior. It just isn’t possible.
Really. I don’t think they really teach that anymore, but the older members will still mention it sometimes.
awww...thank you honey.
Wow!
It is both insulting to me and to my beloved savior, jesus christ.

Typical...
The mormon jesus needs to be protected ...
Hes too delicate...
Someone threw water on him...
Oh noes...
Too bad it is unbiblical
- - - - - —
And kind of convoluted and redundant. “Wordiness of formality” is always a pet peeve of mine.
I prefer the words Jesus spoke.
He does? Well, it is a good thing that I do not trust my feelings to determine the truth, isn't it?
The acceptance of additional scripture automatically assumes that the Bible is not enough.
I absolutely agree. The Bible is not enough.
If the Bible is not enough, or trustworthy enough, then Satan wins because we look for other paths to God than the one He laid out in Scripture.
Your logic is faulty. If God chooses to give additional scripture by revelation to his prophets, that does not give any advantage to Satan whatsoever. Indeed, Satan would want us to ignore additional light and knowledge from God.
Satan can (and does) perform miracles to keep people from the real God.
No doubt. But that does not mean that every miracle is from Satan.
That’s a kind of thing a fat girl who is a permanent wallflower because of her surly attitude would say about a pretty popular girl...
You got it...
Give me a break...shall we list the dozens of Lds break-off groups in their less-than-200-year history?
Or are you going to lecture God about all the tribes of Israel? ("Gee, God, you should have only had one tribe so that the Jews would all interpret everything the same"...When you look @ the list of tribes in the book of Revelation, then add the tribe of Dan to that list, and you have 13 right there...and then if you add in the at-large "diaspora" Jews, you could even say they constitute yet another "tribe.")
Lds "prophets" haven't "agreed" on "scripture" interpretations:
Woodruff thought God progressed; Joseph Fielding Smith thought that was a strange doctrine.
John Taylor & Brigham held the line on polygamy; Woodruff said "no."
All the Lds "prophets" said "no" on black priestholders -- until Spencer Kimball.
Brigham taught Adam was god for over 25 years; no other Lds "prophets" agreed w/him.
Joseph Smith, Brigham Young, and Lorenzo Snow all thought the United Order was a Mormon god-ordained thing; John Taylor said, "nope."
The Book of Mormon said "no" on polygamy; Smith's personal life & those "prophets" that followed him said "yes."
Lds early teachings was that murderers could not be forgiven -- and John D. Lee was ex-communicated under Brigham's umbrella; but in 1961 Lee was rebaptized by proxy...and Ezra Taft Benson "laid hands" to restored all "priesthood blessings" on Lee...now, how Lds leaders "lay hands" on a dead person -- other than imagining corpses & skeletons before them -- is beyond me!
I could go on & on, listing dozens & dozens of such Lds common contradictions.
Here ya go!

Now for the list of Christian denominations...
anyone ???
Wait - she said for 2 years Fred Thompson’s wife was a stripper, or said Fred Thompson’s wife was a stripper for 2 years? (Whoever thought the Aaronic priesthood was so interesting?)
It was disgusting, but given everything else I have seen from her not surprising. She is a rabid Mitt sycophant.
I think I still have the link on my office PC but you can search her history from the Oct ‘07-Jan ‘08 time frame...
awww....ty.
Thank you and amen to the Holy Spirit.
Yikes I thought you were being cute I am not a sir either..
I notice you posted many of the cultic writings of your mormon sect. Did you think they would convince anyone? Given that they teach in opposition to God’s Word the Bible, they are just more smithy stuff.
***
Your comments reminded me of some members of Judah and how they felt about the doctrines in the NT as witness by the remarks of the Scribes, Pharisees and Sadducees made to Jesus.
Is that like “dictate doesn’t mean dictate? ;)
- - - - - - -
Apparently.
Some of the old timers would even say that Jesus was Mormon and a polygamist.
