You are in over your head posting actual Christian information
***
Who are any of you to tell a child of the Lord what they should or should not read or discuss even my faith makes no limits on any thing that is in accord with the things pertaining to the Lord.
Articles of Faithto be
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 PaulWe 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.
Those who are honest and have the spirit of the Lord will ponder why the Nature of the Godhead was clarified or defined 300 years afterwards, not only that, there many adjustments made down through histories until 1438.
Well after the discovery of the Printing press in 1453 the people were able to read the Bible so the slite of hand could no longer do it thing...
In all due respect on this issue should have already been a part of the doctrine, which I sure it was during the ancient Church, than after the schism and the dust settle the deck was shuffled and this is what the world came up with.
No matter how one slice or dice this the word of God comes from God, not a group of men trying to figure out this puzzle.
There is no such thing as a debate on the definition on the Lord’s doctrine of the Godhead, as took place during the time of Constantine in 325 AD, that should not have been going on. The word of God is absolute, no one centuries later have a right trying to put humpy dumpy back together again, or unscramble and egg.
Someone or beings had the correct knowledge but it was never going to come to the light of day.
It was not until 1453 that people could even read the Bible in their own home, prior to that time the masses were at the mercy of the celery.
I also believe even though this was not properly settle that in spite what the people did have, the Lord was able to work with those hearts and minds that were malleable to his scriptures.
What it did do, with out a true definition. was to create a stumbling block.
My doing this was not to argue over this but in all logic man can not arbitrary fix this, as to make it fit.
I agree
Oh, Sweety!
It's not US who tell you this; but your chosen LEADERSHIP that does!!
I have no idea how bad or good this is (I just Googled for Mormon book ban) but again it seems our dear LDS neighbors might be as sensitive as, if not more than, Rome. They've both gone off in odd directions with doctrines, but different odd directions.
The worst departures, however, don't have so much to do with speculative theological minutiae, most of which reflect at least an attempt to glorify God, as with outright denials of the direct salvific capability of Christ.
WHY are you SURE?
Then why don't YOU use the JST instead of the KJV???
Speaking of SCRAMBLED....
Color coding explanation:
Added stuff... Changed stuff... Rearranged stuff... Removed stuff...
*(UNDERLINED stuff is the DISTRACTING reference on every tenth word or so that infuses LDS 'scripture' online.)

If McConkie said it was true, by golly it was TRUE.
What a self aggrandizing dip wad he was. But aren't they all?
I think they are all first editions. The revised versions are not nearly so juicy. Should have said Mormonism's "HATE Propaganda" version.
If faith in the actual Christ exists among such people, they are also fighting hard against Him with all this speculation. That isn't exactly a recipe for blessings. Yes, such a conflicted state can occur, but if the actual Christ has a foothold by faith, He will also eventually win.
A buddy of mine, a conventional evangelical Christian, was approached by Mormon missionaries. He did talk with them and shared his faith with them, and they were fascinated. They mentioned having encountered some frightening figures that reportedly pried their eyes open in the name of the faith. I know what that means, of course -- demonic activity. Now they won't quit bugging my buddy, though I encourage my buddy from time to time to give them a face full of straight gospel.

__________________________________________
No Resty dear, people still did not know how to read..
Gutenberg did not teach people how to read the Bible...
He just gave them he opportunity to own one...
if they had the means...
In 1453 even some of the nobility who owned a Bible couldn’t read..
later in 1830-1877 not all Mormons could read their book of Mormon if they had one..
Many of the Mormons were either couldn’t read or they didn’t read English, they were mostly from foreign countries and not American born..
(Although Mormonism is considered an American religion, it was started with people Joey Smith and Brigham young brought from Europe to make war on the American government and American Christians..
Meanwhile the children of the Mormon overlords in SLC are indeed told “what they should or should not read or discuss” either in print or the Internet..
at present the “children of the Mormon overlords” have been ordered not to read about or discuss the upcoming March 14th arrest of their crooked theocratic dictator, Thomas S Monson for criminal financial fraud...
Nobody in these threads told the Mormons not to read about their high mucky muck overlord’s crimes...
we are busy exposing the truth to the Mormons and are URGING them to find out about it and read all they can..
Yes someone is telling you not to read certain things but its not us...
Meanwhile Resty personally Ive been telling you for years to read the Bible for yourself and not to just cut and paste unrelated Bible scriptures that the ignorant FARMS/FAIR/LSD Inc give you to post here...
Do you even read the stuff you post ???
Here on Feb 19, 2014 I’ll say again to you...
Read the Bible for yourself, Resty..
all of the Bible not just the parts your Mormon overlords tell you will disprove the truth of the Trinity or the nature of God or the virginity of Mary, or that the blood of Jesus that He shed when He died on the Cross covers every sin..
Just because the Mormons deny the Crucifixion does not make it so...
It really happened...theres several accounts in the Bible...
Please read the Bible for yourself...
... I mean, the “they” are the Mormons. Not the creepy figures. My buddy did meet Satan once, a few decades ago. Satan asked him to give his soul for rock and roll (no kidding, exactly in that manner). My buddy refused. Now my buddy and I are busy composing Christian songs by which we hope the gospel mission might be furthered in the world. Usually I write the lyrics and he writes the music. God is working between us in ways that are quite boldly spiritual. With one song, I managed to write what my buddy confirmed was his salvation story, which he hadn’t given me too many particulars about, but I already knew in other ways that he was believing on Christ for salvation of his eternal life.

When Brigham Young moved some of his followers to Utah Territory in Mexico to escape the decency laws of America he set up schools ...
Schools to teach people to read Nana ???
No schools to teach them to DANCE. Young was a party animal..his parties and balls were like Roman orgies, a good place for Young and his fellow Playboys to meet new young girls to add to his stable...
Young was more interested in the bodies of his slaves err followers and not their spirits...
Young told them what to believe...theres no record of Young ever telling the Mormons to read the Bible for themselves..
Not exactly the most savory story.
It sounde from Mormon tracts that it started out idealistically enough, but Smith just ended up creating “one more denomination” (something he reportedly hated) and at that, a polluted and confused one. And which has demonic phenomena to this day. I’m leery about Mitt having run for president... it’s like it was a giveaway to Obama and it wasn’t just his wishy washy politics. Obama got just the right bump in the right swing states to make it, and I don’t think even Democrat cheaters are that good on their own. More typically a Democrat cheating coup takes a long dragged out game of Calvinball.
Bog means bog in Norwegian, according to Google Translate. Those Norwegians don’t mince words.
