What’s your name going to be when you become a god? I Am , Heavenly Father, Jesus Christ, The Holy Spirit, Yahweh and Jehovah are already taken.
If it were me, I’d be seriously thinking about it. KInda like an academy award speech :-)
But then again, I’m just a woman so my name will never be spoken again after my husband uses it to call me out of the grave. If he so chooses.
However, I again aver that the LDS doctrine that God the Father had a Father who had a Father and so on cannot be dismissed with a hand wave.
Nor can His Name I AM be dismissed with a hand wave.
Legerdemain is a magician’s trick – getting the audience to watch one hand while the other is doing something else. Like secrets of any kind, it has no place among preachers.
Clarity and simplicity are crucial in declaring Who Christ IS.
For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or [if] ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with [him]. - 2 Cor 11:3-4
In post 784 you testified that “We have one God.” but based on the rest of that post, the sentence should be finished as follows ”We LDS have one God, the heavenly Father, who is relevant to us; the Heavenly Father’s Father, Grandfather, etc. are irrelevant.”
And in post 1688 you said ” I AM is definitely one of God's names.” but based on the previous post 784 (and others such as MHGinTN’s post 1691) that sentence should be finished as follows ”We LDS recognize that I AM is definitely one of God’s names in the same respect that I am and you are and he is - which is not in the Judeo/Christian meaning of YHwH (He IS) that there was no one, no time and no thing before Him (Alpha) and that there will be no one, no time and no thing after Him (Omega.)”
Again I aver that the issue of “Who God IS” cannot be dismissed with a hand wave.
I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. - Revelation 1:7-8
