If you want to know what Mormons believe, ask us. No, we don't believe that Christ had to be saved. He came to earth to bring salvation to us.
If we really taught that Christ had to "work out his salvation", why would Colofornian have to go back 29 years to dig up a quote?
If this truly isn't what Mormons believe, even if it was 29 years ago, BYU should be taken to task and watched like a hawk to make sure they don't publish such nonsense again.
Heck, we Catholics have to justify stuff that was said 1,600 years ago. 29 years ain't nuthin'!
What do YOU think the quoted writer meant? How much weight should be given the quoted statements in your view?
And in a larger realm, would you describe LDS theology of the Trinity and of the Person of Christ as compatible with the dogmata of Nicea, Ephesus, and Chalcedon?
As I hope is clear, my thinking is that if we HAVE to start calling one another names and condescending and being sorry for one another and the rest, I'd like to get our disagreements clear first. I mean, I GUESS I'm okay with burning you at the stake but I'd like to be clear about WHY before I buy the weenies and marshmallows
Not paying attention in church, are you?
Your cults ‘Journal of Discourses’ proves Mormonism is not Christian. If you persist in your deceptions I will post a few direct quotes from your peepstone sexual predator of married women and subsequent ‘LDS prophets and apostles’ that show the blasphemies and heresies your cult has taught to ‘the faithful’. Meantime, answer truthfully: Was The God of Mormonism once a man and had to earn the attributes of godhood?
