“mormon truth cookies “

What we believe is found in the LDS Articles of Faith which, as you know, I dare not post here because the religion mod permits the anti Mormons to have a field day tearing them apart, desecreting them, and trampling them under foot.

Therefore, you may continue on your quest to discredit me and my faith and I am unable to adequately respond.

What a crock of soured milk! I'm going to post your A's of F and it will not hurt the truth one bit. The truth is, Momronism is founded in a non'Christian jesus and a non-Christian god, as illuistrated clearly above with direct quotes from your non-Christian founders!

The Articles of Faith
of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints
  1. We believe in God, the Eternal Father, and in His Son, Jesus Christ, and in the Holy Ghost.
  2. We believe that men will be punished for their own sins, and not for Adam's transgression.
  3. We believe that through the Atonement of Christ, all mankind may be saved, by obedience to the laws and ordinances of the Gospel.
  4. We believe that the first principles and ordinances of the Gospel are: first, Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ; second, Repentance; third, Baptism by immersion for the remission of sins; fourth, Laying on of hands for the gift of the Holy Ghost.
  5. We believe that a man must be called of God, by prophecy, and by the laying on of hands by those who are in authority, to preach the Gospel and administer in the ordinances thereof.
  6. We believe in the same organization that existed in the Primitive Church, namely, apostles, prophets, pastors, teachers, evangelists, and so forth.
  7. We believe in the gift of tongues, prophecy, revelation, visions, healing, interpretation of tongues, and so forth.
  8. We believe the Bible to be the word of God as far as it is translated correctly; we also believe the Book of Mormon to be the word of God.
  9. We believe all that God has revealed, all that He does now reveal, and we believe that He will yet reveal many great and important things pertaining to the Kingdom of God.
  10. We believe in the literal gathering of Israel and in the restoration of the Ten Tribes; that Zion (the New Jerusalem) will be built upon the American continent; that Christ will reign personally upon the earth; and, that the earth will be renewed and receive its paradisiacal glory.
  11. We claim the privilege of worshiping Almighty God according to the dictates of our own conscience, and allow all men the same privilege, let them worship how, where, or what they may.
  12. We believe in being subject to kings, presidents, rulers, and magistrates, in obeying, honoring, and sustaining the law.
  13. We believe in being honest, true, chaste, benevolent, virtuous, and in doing good to all men; indeed, we may say that we follow the admonition of Paul—We believe all things, we hope all things, we have endured many things, and hope to be able to endure all things. If there is anything virtuous, lovely, or of good report or praiseworthy, we seek after these things.

Joseph Smith

Sakes alive! Where in the blue blazes does one get the gumption to be able to post something like this with a "straight face"?

Surely this is satire? Right?

Do I need to give you actual examples of attempts to "discredit" posters?

Perhaps you need to follow the RM's rules and not hang out here if you are this thin skinned

Is "desecreting" even a word?

AFA discrediting you, I have no need

Discreding mormonism - mormonism does it on its own SD. I supplied words from your priesthood authorities to contrast this mormon Jesus with the Jesus of the Bible. You are silent to their voices.

Perhaps you weren't informed on EXACTLY what deeper meat was present in mormonism when you joined.

Perhaps a realization that what you have been 'taught' isn' quite right.

Lots of "perhaps" SD only you can answer.

Is former 70 and apostle Roberts correct in that heavenly father's plan of salvation includes the necessity of you shedding your own blood for your sins?

How did Jesus attain to godhood status in the pre-existance?

Truth doesn't bring fear, fear only comes from realizing you've made a very big mistake.

If the town square format of “open” Religion Forum threads bother you, then IGNORE them altogether and instead post to threads labeled “ecumenical” “caucus” “prayer” or “devotional.”

  1. We believe in God, the Eternal Father, and in His Son, Jesus Christ, and in the Holy Ghost. [We also believe God, the Eternal Father used to be a sinful man and later became God the Father. We also believe Jesus Christ was a created spirit being, who later became a man and later became a mormon god. We also believe the Holy Ghost was a created spirit being, who never got a body because he sinned. We also believe these are three separate gods and not ONE God, as the Bible talks about. Also, since they were all created spirit beings, some of which got bodies on earth before becoming mormon gods, they used to not be eternal, but now they are eternal. We also believe there is a Heavenly Mother God, well, at least one, maybe more than one, since we still believe in celestial polygamy. We also believe there are millions or even trillions of other mormon gods and than each mormon male can potentially become a god too, complete with his own goddess wives, a planet, worshippers, etc. This depends on doing enough mormonic works. Every mormon woman can potentially become a mormonic goddess and become eternally pregnant. All told, we believe in a lot of gods.]
