Yet somewhere along the line the Lord did give Ishmael and his people a covenant!

So, you believe that God has a covenant with the Muslims?

Do you accept Ishael as Abraham's legitimate heir?

The mods have stated over and over that critizing a FAITH is within the rules. Personal attacks are NOT!\

***

Oh so that makes it alright because the mods sanction it!

The Spirit of the Lord never seem to enter the picture when you do those things towards your neighbor

...and it is alright to make it next to impossible for the LDS to love you in spite of your callous indiferents!

How many times have the LDS pleded the Lords commandment to Love One Another?

so we are different but the Lord has always told us

John 13:
34 A new commandment I give unto you, That ye alove one another; as I have loved you, that ye also blove one another.

35 By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have alove one to another.

Does that not mean anything to any of you?

The things a few of you here from all the other Christians on FR are engaged in really does not adhere to what Lord would like all of us to do.

Many other Christian Freeper do not agree with the LDS, but they make an effort to keep the Lord commandment having faith the Lord will sort this out.

And who is more qualified to sort this out than Jesus Christ?

Hagar could not received the marriage of Sarah and Abraham they were not of the same faith so they marriage was until death we part.

Just like most marriages today are until death do we part so that could be called a bondman marriage!

It is not that they were living in sin it just that under those conditions Hagar could not receive an increase after life.

More mormon "celestial" eternal marriage BS. That what the FLDS believe, too. Their temple ordinances are probably the same as the LDS.

This post in the comments at the SLTrib makes a lot of sense.

: 4/10/2008 7:05:00 AM +9 Most of these people are brainwashed from birth to believe in these corrupt principles. I don't see much difference between the FLDS religion and the beginnings of the Mormon church. Why do you think the non-mormons (living around Joseph Smith and his wives) got so upset with his polygamist cult? Why do think the Mormons had to move to Utah to escape the wrath of the people. Jeffs group did the same kinds of things to his people that Joseph and Brigham did to theirs. Many underage brides were wed to Joseph and Brigham. The FLDS moved their Zion to some isolated place where they thought they could practice their screwy religion without getting caught very much the same as the Mormons moving to Utah. The LDS doctrine in the beginning wasn't much different from the FLDS doctrine. No one in this valley wants to admit it but the LDS church has some resposiblity in this whole thing instead of acting like these people are different than they are. They both come from the same roots. They both brainwash their children from birth and teach many of the same principles and if the LDS church wasn't threatened to be closed down by the U.S. government they would still be practicing polygamy to this day. They still believe that their men ordained in the priesthood will have mutiple wives in heaven. The LDS people pointing fingers at Jeffs need to point those fingers right back at themselves for helping to create this mess. JMHO

The position that the Mormons have is that polygamy is wrong because it is against the law. Not that it is a sin in they eyes of God.

They would say that it was God's will for the early Mormon Church to practice polygamy.

So they think it is wrong but they still defend it.

CC, if I am wrong, please correct me!

I can't because I don't know if they're coming or going.

Elsie has posted some passages from the Mormon's Scripture that clearly state that polygamy is prohibited and wrong. The LDS leadership says it's wrong. I don't know how they can justify it. It's more than I can wrap my mind around.

I was reading in my Bible that there is no marrying in Heaven.

Remember, the mormons only believe in the BIBLE "as it is correctly translated." This is one of the perks only "speshul" people get.

Mormon creed:

 
 
 
 
The Articles of Faith
of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints
 

  1. We believe in God, the Eternal Father, and in His Son, Jesus Christ, and in the Holy Ghost.
  2. We believe that men will be punished for their own sins, and not for Adam's transgression.
  3. We believe that through the Atonement of Christ, all mankind may be saved, by obedience to the laws and ordinances of the Gospel.
  4. We believe that the first principles and ordinances of the Gospel are: first, Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ; second, Repentance; third, Baptism by immersion for the remission of sins; fourth, Laying on of hands for the gift of the Holy Ghost.
  5. We believe that a man must be called of God, by prophecy, and by the laying on of hands by those who are in authority, to preach the Gospel and administer in the ordinances thereof.
  6. We believe in the same organization that existed in the Primitive Church, namely, apostles, prophets, pastors, teachers, evangelists, and so forth.
  7. We believe in the gift of tongues, prophecy, revelation, visions, healing, interpretation of tongues, and so forth.
  8. We believe the Bible to be the word of God as far as it is translated correctly; we also believe the Book of Mormon to be the word of God.
  9. We believe all that God has revealed, all that He does now reveal, and we believe that He will yet reveal many great and important things pertaining to the Kingdom of God.
  10. We believe in the literal gathering of Israel and in the restoration of the Ten Tribes; that Zion (the New Jerusalem) will be built upon the American continent; that Christ will reign personally upon the earth; and, that the earth will be renewed and receive its paradisiacal glory.
  11. We claim the privilege of worshiping Almighty God according to the dictates of our own conscience, and allow all men the same privilege, let them worship how, where, or what they may.
  12. We believe in being subject to kings, presidents, rulers, and magistrates, in obeying, honoring, and sustaining the law.
  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 Paul—We 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.

Joseph Smith
