“Ive always thought it preposterous that any church would NOT claim to be the only church that teaches the whole truth.”
Christian churches which affirm all the essentials, albeit differing with names like Baptists or some other congregation, ought not do it.
The LDS, however, commonly seeks to be numbered with Baptists and Lutherans as fellow Christians. They are, in fact, an entirely different religion, and rival to us. Thus it is necessary to expose how the LDS really feels about Christianity, so that when they come for to tell us that they are our brothers, we can make it clear from the scriptures and from their own theology that Christ is their religion’s bitter enemy.
I know my denomination isn’t perfect nor do we claim it, it is much like the Christians who fill it - strivers of perfection, to be like Jesus Who was and is Perfection.
Do the LDS claim perfection? If so, they must be the only church that does so. That is arrogant, prideful, sinful and wrong.
From personal observation, LDS is among the least “correct”, ranking right up there with the muzzies. The LDS may not be trying to kill us but to listen to their clap trap is to jeopardize one’s soul, all the Muzzies can do is kill my old worn out anyway body.
“Christ is their religions bitter enemy.”
You mean like this:
LDS Children’s Song Book “I’m Trying to be like Jesus” =
I’m trying to be like Jesus;
I’m following in his ways.
I’m trying to love as he did,
In all that I do and say.
At times I’m tempted to make a wrong choice,
But I try to listen as the still small voice whispers,
“Love one another as Jesus loves you.
Try to show kindness in all that you do.
Be gentle and loving in deed and in thought,
For these are the things Jesus taught.”
I’m trying to love my neighbor;
I’m learning to serve my friends.
I watch for the day of gladness when Jesus will come again.
I try to remember the lessons he taught.
Then the Holy Spirit enters into my thoughts, saying:
“Love one another as Jesus loves you.
Try to show kindness in all that you do.
Be gentle and loving in deed and in thought,
For these are the things Jesus taught.”
Good advice: “Try to show kindness in all that you do.”
Well said!
