Let’s say at an open forum a new candidate named Joe Jones was in the midst. And I asked him the question, “What is your belief about God?” and he answered, “I believe I will be a god someday.”
What a shame that some people feel the need to portray becoming as Christ-like as possible as a bad thing to advance a political agenda.
If Mitt is a faithful Mormon as he seems to be, he intends to do his best to develop in his life the attributes of Christ. Love, humility, charity, kindness, honesty, patience. Do we want a president who doesn’t strive to become more Christ-like? If so I’m pretty sure you will have that option in 2008.
The Mormonism apologists are morphing into Romney apologists, just as it was predicted (prophecy anyone) they would a few months back when so many Mormons started signing up at FR. Has FreeRepublic been threatened by the traceresque Mormon/Romney apologists again lately?
Ya wanna explain why you keep addressing N.S. (posts #243, #273) but you're responding to my words?
(Does this mean you're not talking to me anymore; but you still wanted to indirectly respond? :) )
Genesis 3
1. Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the LORD God had made. He said to the woman, "Did God really say, `You must not eat from any tree in the garden'?"
2. The woman said to the serpent, "We may eat fruit from the trees in the garden,
3. but God did say, `You must not eat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden, and you must not touch it, or you will die.'"
4. "You will not surely die," the serpent said to the woman.
5. "For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil."
faithfully keep ANY vows he has made to the LDS organization.
