Babbling on about ANGELS; but producing NOTHING to show that your CLAIM that HUMANS were once angels.

...angels received a mortal suit and when they die...

Sorry, misguideone; but ANGELS never die - they are IMMORTAL from the getgo.

Where do ALL these crazy ideas COME from???

That is IF what you said was true which it is NOT true because JS was called of the Lord Jesus Christ!
 
 
Uh...  huh...
 


 
"Joseph; I advise you not to go to that jail."
 
"Darn gnats!!"
 
 
"Joseph; I'm telling you to not to go to that jail."
 
"Flies are BAD today!!"
 
 
"Joseph; It ain't gonna be pretty if you ignore me and go to that jail!"
 
"Crummy mosquitos are EVERYWHERE!!!"
 
 
"Joseph!  Do NOT go to that jail!"
 
"And those bedbugs really savaged me last night, too!"
 
 
"JOSEPH!!  Wake up boy!   Do Not Go To That JAIL!!!"
 
"All right Sheriff - here I am, so give me a nice room while my Lawyer, my Advocate, my Comforter presents the LAW to the Judge and I am VINDICATED!!!"

It is very clear in the scriptures you want to say it is a bat when it is a cat that is your choice Elsie!

Judges 13

3 And the angel of the Lord appeared unto the woman, and said unto her, Behold now, thou art barren, and bearest not: but thou shalt conceive, and bear a son.

6 ¶ Then the woman came and told her husband, saying, A man of God came unto me, and his countenance was like the countenance of an angel of God, very terrible: but I asked him not whence he was, neither told he me his name:

those two angel men who assist Lot had bodies and the resides wanted to have them for SS.

You choose to deni the scriptures words so be it Elsie...

That's some pretty aggressive boasting you have going on right there.


JESUS: Hey Smith!
Remember that boast you made about doing more than even I had done to hold the 'church' together?

JOSEPH SMITH: Where am I?

JESUS: Don't you remember? A few seconds ago you were in that jail.

JOSEPH SMITH: Oh; yeah; but where am I NOW?

JESUS: Don't you remember? Does bang - bang ring a bell?

JOSEPH SMITH: Oh; yeah - that crummy gun I had was about USELESS!

JESUS: I hope you left instructions on how to hold your church together.

JOSEPH SMITH: Dang! I knew there was SOMETHING I was forgetting!

JESUS: Looks like there's a power struggle going on down there.

JOSEPH SMITH: Yeah; there was always SOMEone who wanted the power that I held - especially over the LADIES - wink wink.

JESUS: No need to worry about that now; remember what my friend Matthew wrote down?

JOSEPH SMITH: This? “At the resurrection people will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven” (Matthew 22:30)

JESUS: That's it.

JOSEPH SMITH: I thought that was mistranslated.

JESUS: Nah - it was right.

JOSEPH SMITH: Oh well; it was fun while it lasted. My buds will still get it on with the girls.

JESUS: Uh; I'm sorry; in just a few more years; your followers will cavein to the United States government and abandon the 'Eternal Covenant' that you came up with.

JOSEPH SMITH: ME!? YOU are the one that told me to do that!

JESUS: Sorry; but you must have mistranslated what I told you. What part of Do NOT commit ADULTERY did you not understand?

JOSEPH SMITH: mumble....

JESUS: What did you say?

JOSEPH SMITH: Oh, nothing.

JESUS: Well; it was interesting talking to you; but now I must get back to perparing a place for those who believe in Me.

JOSEPH SMITH: Oh, yeah; the Celestial Kingdom.

JESUS: No...

JOSEPH SMITH: The Telestial one?

JESUS: Nope.

JOSEPH SMITH: SUREly not the TERRESTRIAL one!!

JESUS: Nope. Didn't you read that the mind of man had NOT conceived of it? Paul wrote it down in 1 Corinthians 2:9.

JOSEPH SMITH: I thought that was mistranslated.

JESUS: No; it wasn't.

JOSEPH SMITH: You SURE?

JESUS: Yes. Now I must be going: what did you say your name was again?

JOSEPH SMITH: Joseph Smith.

JESUS: Hmmmm. According to my Heavenly Faithbook, you didn't sign in as one of my friends - sorry, I never knew you.

JOSEPH SMITH: But....

 


BEWARE!

 

Proverbs 29:1

A man who remains stiff-necked after many rebukes will suddenly be destroyed--without remedy.

I can tell you sacred things all day long, because they are NOT HIDDEN! Christ revealed all upon His death.

The LDS religious Organization® does NOT 'reveal all'!

Therefore - they are ANTI-Christian!!

careful I think they call that “jumping the shark” or “mindreading” one of thoes... LOL

Too bad that Joseph Smith, ladies man, decided to Jump the Bones of his NEIGHBORS wife - causing MIGHTY hard feelings to be gendered against him!

Genesis 3:1, 4-5
 
 1.  Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the LORD God had made. He said to the woman, "Did God really say, `You must not eat from any tree in the garden'?" 
 
 
 4.  "You will not surely die," the serpent said to the woman.
 5.  "For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil."
 
 
His tactics haven't changed a bit!
 
1. Introduce DOUBT...
2. 'Explain' what GOD said...
 
 
EXACTLY the same way MORMONism operates!

WARNING: You are about to encounter a rabid case of
mormonite see-and-say.

In this mormonism approach to mangling scriptures,
the cult member sees a word used in the Bible. Rather
than understanding original language, context, purpose,
customs of the time, etc. - she assumes that none of
that matters.

Instead, the goddess declares what it means because
she saw a word.

Here is a documented case of the Mormonite-See-and-Say
approach:

“I will do you one better I will show you from the OT & NT that there were angel men”

” 3 And the angel of the Lord appeared unto the woman...

“6 Then the woman came and told her husband, saying, A man of God came unto me, and his countenance was like the countenance of an angel of God,...”

As Emeril would say BAM!

WARNING: You are about to read a false statement. It is
assumed based on Eisogesis - reading false ideas back into
scripture.

Here it is:

“There are resurrected angels”

BAM!

WARNING: You are about to read cultic, New Age teaching
from the mormonite religion. It is false. Man does not
progress to being a god - Shirly McClain hollering at the
ocean “I am God!” - not withstanding.

OK, here it is:

“...neither does the spirit of man it just a work in progress!”

BAM!

In the past few days her mis-matched mismash of Mormon/Christian/who knows what doctrine has done more to show how out of whack LDS allow their doctrine to be represented and how they would never correct someone out of fear of losing members.

It explains a lot when we see things like once authoritative "prophets" now thrown under the bus, why we see several LDS folk here express either specifically christian views not supported by LDS scripture or doctrine or like Resty, some absolutely out of left field ideas, all of which are perfectly fine and never corrected by LDS authorities or even other Mormons.

When everything is right it is easy to never be wrong.

Sadly for them God has a tick higher standard.

Resty, for Pete’s sake, every time you quote the bible

a) you take it out of context
b) you try to make it mean something it most definitely doesn’t mean
c) you remind me that the LDS don’t believe the bible is correctly translated, so it’s ludicrous to use the bible to prove a point.

That other gibberish is a work of fiction. It’s like trying to use quotes from “Lord of the Rings” to prove to me that hobbits exist.
