Now, Reno...did you leave out something in that last sentence? Such as..."to be good people over all & headed in a good direction. We also believe that ultimately they can receive all the blessings the Lord has in store for them"...IF they either become "worthy" mormons while alive...OR WHEN they are baptized and confirmed into the mormon church AFTER they die"?
You know full well, that according to mormon belief, NO ONE will "receive ALL the blessings the Lord has in store for them" unless they accept Joseph Smith and his teachings, and prove their "worthiness" to sit at the hand of God and His Son by obeying mormon standards.
What is the "evil intent" you are accusing Christians of, BTW?
Folks, THIS is what mormons really think of Christians. They can "ultimately" receive all the Lord has in store for them, once they become "worthy".
Just as “Christians” believe all must accept Christ in order to be saved, we believe the same, perhaps just a little more specific. We believe we have the true church of Christ here on earth. Is it beyond reason for us to thus believe that one will ultimately have to accept that truth?
We believe that ultimately all will have the opportunity to accept the gospel in this life or in the next. It's not about Joseph Smith's teachings, it's about the Lord's. Unlike many Christian sects, the LDS church wasn't started by Joseph Smith based on his own ideas & interpretations of the Bible. He claimed to be visited by the Father & the Son who gave direction, just as the Lord had done throughout the Bible. The Lord based this church upon the same principles & formation as He did while He was here on earth w/ prophets, apostles etc.
If Christ's truth is somewhere out there, wouldn't it make sense that ultimately all would have to accept THAT truth regardless of how close they may have been? I respect the fact you don't believe we have the truth, albeit your manner of delivery of such feelings leaves a little to be desired. There's really no difference between your beliefs that Muslims will ultimately have to accept Christ in order to be saved, & our beliefs that all will have to accept His gospel. We're just more specific, but the principle is the same. Not sure why that is such a problem for you.
As far as the evil intent is concerned, there are Christians such as the Rev. Wright, et al, that I feel have evil intent. The majority of Christians don't espouse the sentiments of Wright, the Westboro Baptist church, etc. Nice try to tie my comments in w/ those as an all encompassing statement. Shame on you ole Grey.
At your age, I feel bad for you that anger takes up such a large portion of your days. You seem at times to be consumed w/ the destruction of our church, rather than spending those efforts on more constructive activities to further His work. I rarely hear you putting forth your beliefs in a constructive way that would uplift those that would hear your testimony (notice I didn't say never). Most of your efforts here tend to be spent on destruction. I would wish better for you. My prayers are sincerely w/ you & the other anti’s here.
