The “Mormon God is a god of accountability, the perception I have of the protestant God is that all you have to do is say “I believe” and go on sinning, because “God will take care of it.” and you have no responsibility to do anything.

Is this in contradistinction to the Mormon god who apparently says, "You take care of your sin. It's totally on your shoulders"???

It is clear Cofian is going to continue to try to inject meaning that does not fit!

You sir have a gift for misunderstanding what has been clearly stated. (Almost as if it was on purpose).

From post #366:

“You almost had it. There is no “Pulling your selves up” ( http://scriptures.lds.org/2_ne/25/23#23 ) we are “Saved by grace after all we can do”. We must do all in our power, and then Christ makes up the difference, whether large or small.”

What part of “Saved by Grace” don’t you understand?
