[White Mountain]

This doctrinal exposition is posted here for reference and perhaps discussion. P-Marlowe was asking on another thread why Jesus is called the Father and the Son in the Book of Mormon. The above is the official position of the LDS Church on the subject. He is called the Son due to His relationship to the Father, and is called the Father due to His relationship to us and all of creation. Notice how thoroughly grounded in the Scriptures it is, an example to all of us.

Please let me know if any of the Scripture links are missing or incorrect.

White Mountain, I tuely believe the lovely things that the Jesus had shown us, is not to be shared with many.

For many are so consumed with themselves they have little concern if they take things that belong to someone else trample on them. and every oportunity they get they pick at, and cause it to bleed and than they go in for the kill.

There are a lot of things when I grew up did not like or thought was phony or weird, but my parents taught me to respect another things and faith, no matter how we personaly felt about it. I was also taught to defend anothers right regardless if I believed the same as another it was the right things to do.

I was also taught to not say things if they gossip and you should know it to be a fact and not just an opinion. I guess I grew up in another time when more of America was civilized to one an other.

I really don't think people realized how much of the world has rub off on them in this day and age and make statements that was not polite in certain compmay.

Would think those who loved the Lord would try to treat their fellowmen with the way they treat fellowmen if the Lord Jesus Christ was present!

Would they make replies to statements such as this

The process by which children come into this world is very sacred indeed. People don't generally go around talking about the way their children were conceived, or the way their parents conceived them,

ohhh man WM you do need to get out more:>)

I don't mean to single out this reply accept it makes the point of being common or part of the world behavior. Some how those who try to walk in the ways of the Lord (that are not perfect)but keep practicing so when the Lord comes the behavior is as natural as breathing! Did not the Lord say now is the time to prepare or to have the proper and enough oil in our lamps! So when the Lord comes we are readly to received HIM!

When you think of it for some it will almost seem like a life time to clean themselve up both in mind and body!
