Hi MHG,

You are quoting mainly from early Mormon officials from the Journal of Discourses and other early journals. It sounds like these men were giving their opinions on topics and none of these statements are held as the official doctrine of the LDS Church.

Yes, Jesus was God with Us. He inherited mortality from Mary and immortality from God the Father. Luke records that from a child “Jesus grew in wisdom and in stature, and favour with God and man” (Luke 2:52), indicating that there was progression in Christ’s mortal life from childhood.

Norm - I have to point out to you that -

LDS Gospel Principles pp. 11, 17, 18)(D&C 93:29; PGP:Bk of Abr 3:21-22; Teachings, pp. 352-354 and Book of Moses 4:1-4
Are Official lds scriptures and publication for doctrine. Further norm, in the 2009 edition of "Gospel Principles" we are told that "the inspired words of our living prophets become scripture to us. Their words come to us through conferences, the Liahona or Ensign magazine, and instructions to local priesthood leaders. . JoD and other approved publications fall within those instructions.

You are practicing a form of deceit, Norm. Do you really want to tell us that quoting your founding ‘prophet’, JOseph Smith, is only quoting ‘early officials’ and thus you place yourself in a position of denying the very teaching of your ‘prophet’? If all you can do is play deceitful misdirection, it might be more moral for you to just remain mute int he face of such overwhelming proof of the deceitfulness of your religion and the anti-Christian teachings of your founders.
