Baal, Jupiter, and other God(s) of Romney's LDS sect of Mormonism.

Posted on 10/29/2011 10:14:55 AM PDT by SENTINEL

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and RINO Presidential candidate Mitt Romney have brought the many aspects of the breakaway LDS sect of Mormonism into the media spotlight. Energetic accusations and counter accusations, denials, coverup and obfuscation rule the discussion, all he while the forest is missed for the trees.

I present here the most shocking evidence yet brought to bear against the christianity claims of mormons.

Mormons believe Baal and Jupiter helped create the universe.

A graven image of Baal at the Nauvoo Illinois LDS Temple.

This is a photo of the very Jupiter Talisman that Emma Smith, Joseph's widow, claimed was his most prized possession and was in his pocket the day he died.

Just a little "light reading" from the breakaway LDS sect's version of Mormonism's Book of Abraham proves that mormons, like buddists, hindus, ancient greeks, egyptians and other babylonian mystery religion offshoots believe in multiple gods.

Abraham Chapter 4:

1 And then the Lord said: Let us go down. And they went down at the beginning, and they, that is the Gods, organized and formed the heavens and the earth.

2 And the earth, after it was formed, was empty and desolate, because they had not formed anything but the earth; and darkness reigned upon the face of the deep, and the Spirit of the Gods was brooding upon the face of the waters.

3 And they (the Gods) said: Let there be light; and there was light.

4 And they (the Gods) comprehended the light, for it was bright; and they divided the light, or caused it to be divided, from the darkness.

5 And the Gods called the light Day, and the darkness they called Night. And it came to pass that from the evening until morning they called night; and from the morning until the evening they called day; and this was the first, or the beginning, of that which they called day and night.

6 And the Gods also said: Let there be an expanse in the midst of the waters, and it shall divide the waters from the waters.

7 And the Gods ordered the expanse, so that it divided the waters which were under the expanse from the waters which were above the expanse; and it was so, even as they ordered.

8 And the Gods called the expanse, Heaven. And it came to pass that it was from evening until morning that they called night; and it came to pass that it was from morning until evening that they called day; and this was the second atime that they called night and day.

9 And the Gods ordered, saying: Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto bone place, and let the earth come up dry; and it was so as they ordered;

10 And the Gods pronounced the dry land, Earth; and the gathering together of the waters, pronounced they, aGreat Waters; and the Gods saw that they were obeyed.

Jack You are spot on.

I highly recommend the excellent "Know Your Enemy" dvd set available from "TheFuelProject" channel on Youtube or theapologeticsgroup.com for anyone wanting a comprehensive lesson on the source of ALL false religion, called "Mystery Babylon" in the bible.

Believe it or not, the Old Testament refers to ‘Gods’ as well. In Genesis, when God says, “Let US create man in our own image” the Hebrew word used for God is Elohim - a plural. Hence, ‘let US...” This has been suggested as God’s self-referential acknowledgement of His triune nature - being Father,Son and Holy Spirit.
While I strongly disagree with Mormomism, we should not be so hasty to point out fault with something that exists in our Bible too.

well, do you believe Jesus raised from the dead? Where’s the science in that?

Plato was a philosopher in Athens. Where's the science in that?

the hate mormon stuff is getting tired.

Here's a thought: then stay out of the religion forum.

The Trinity is one God: Father, Son, Holy Spirit- Three in One.

It’s anti-protestant, too, for that matter.

Let us is the first teaching of the trinity, which Christians believe is 3 persons in One eternal God ..unlike Mormons we do not believe it was separate gods.. John 1 clears that up..

"If the LDS sect broke away from the mormons 150 years ago because of the JST, then why quote the JST now as proof of the LDS sect’s apostasy?"

Brian, I want to make sure that you know that the book of "Abraham" is in the lds sect's "Pearl of Great Price", FLDS/LDS "prophet" Joseph Smith claimed to translate it off of a piece of parchment found on some egyptian mummies which were part of a travelling circus sideshow. The "Translation" was proven to be utterly false with the discovery of the Rosetta Stone, many years later. It turns out the ancient drawing was a very common eqyptian "have a good afterlife" card called a "book of breathings", which was placed with almost all the dead. This is from the lds sect's Pearl of Great Price".

>> What i am trying to show is the pattern of deception they use. They left true Joseph Smith mormonism long ago, now they claim all the other branches are rogue.

Smith created the Mormon church and then decided he had to translate the Bible. Most mormons read his Bible and said, “No way Joe!” and split, effectively taking the name of his church with them when they left. I don’t believe that mormons are true Christians, but they are more Christian than most secular Americans who claim Christianity as their faith without ever setting foot in a church, reading a Bible, or praying (except when they discover they have cancer).

This isn’t deception. It is discernment.

Protestants could say the exact same thing about Catholics. Orthodox Catholics could say the same thing about Roman Catholics. Methodists could say it of Episcopals. Assembly of God could say it of Methodists. Paul’s church would say it of Peter’s. Christianity is a history of people thinking that they’ve found the One True Way and splitting from those who think the old ways are right. But, we share enough common history and common beliefs that we all still know who the real Enemy is...I hope.

You don’t steer people away from a bad church by telling them they are wrong, or that their church is evil. You draw them away by showing that your way to God is right and that your church is better. I don’t care about the mormons, except that they are evangelizing their faith and mine is sitting there with “Open Doors, Open Hearts, Open Minds” and empty parking lots!

There are those full cognizant of what mormonism is and there are those who have been deceived as to what mormonism is. You will find answers in the old testament where it deals with false prophets and minions or servants of Satan. I will say nothing further on this period.

OK, so the LDS sect broke off from the mainstream mormons of the day because of the JST. Then, they incorporated a book of the JST into some other book. Is that right?

“If Romney wants to be the god of his own planet I don’t think I need he needs practice doing it at the cost of the taxpayer.”

That’s good. And it would actually apply to all power-hungry politicians. They want to be gods at our expense. May they’re all Mormons.

It would be best to leave labeling criticism as “hate” to the liberals.
