Statement #1: The fact is, those decisions were made by man.

Statement #2: I trust what the Lord has said both directly & through His prophets & apostles.

Do you see ANY problems with these statements of yours?

The Message: The Gospel of John in Contemporary Language

Now we need the BoM in Contemporary Language ;^)

[Elsie]

Genesis 3:22 And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil:

He did NOT say...

Genesis 3:22 And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become one of us, to know good and evil:

[Elsie]

He never said it was Nephi who came in place of Moroni.

And how do you know this 'fact'?

We have PROOF in the PRINTED document that it said NEPHI!

Is it MY problem that you have no data to PROVE otherwise?

[Elsie]

The ones that God has spoken to, yes. See verse 11 again, they write the words the Lord speaks to them.

Sorry, but your BoM says ALL; HE'll speak to ALL...

 

 

2 Nephi 29:

10 Wherefore, because that ye have a Bible ye need not suppose that it contains all my words; neither need ye suppose that I have not caused more to be written.
11 For I command all men, both in the east and in the west, and in the north, and in the south, and in the islands of the sea, that they shall write the words which I speak unto them; for out of the books which shall be written I will judge the world, every man according to their works, according to that which is written.
12 For behold, I shall speak unto the Jews and they shall write it; and I shall also speak unto the Nephites and they shall write it; and I shall also speak unto the other tribes of the house of Israel, which I have led away, and they shall write it; and I shall also speak unto all nations of the earth and they shall write it.
13 And it shall come to pass that the Jews shall have the words of the Nephites, and the Nephites shall have the words of the Jews; and the Nephites and the Jews shall have the words of the lost tribes of Israel; and the lost tribes of Israel shall have the words of the Nephites and the Jews.
14 And it shall come to pass that my people, which are of the house of Israel, shall be gathered home unto the lands of their possessions; and my word also shall be gathered in one. And I will show unto them that fight against my word and against my people, who are of the house of Israel, that I am God, and that I covenanted with Abraham that I would remember his seed forever.

THE
DOCTRINE AND COVENANTS
OF THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST OF LATTER-DAY SAINTS

SECTION 71

 

Revelation given to Joseph Smith the Prophet and Sidney Rigdon, at Hiram, Ohio, December 1, 1831. HC 1: 238–239. The Prophet had continued to translate the Bible with Sidney Rigdon as his scribe until this revelation was received, at which time it was temporarily laid aside so as to enable them to fulfill the instruction given herein. The brethren were to go forth to preach in order to allay the unfriendly feelings that had developed against the Church as a result of the publication of some newspaper articles by Ezra Booth, who had apostatized.

1–4, Joseph Smith and Sidney Rigdon are sent forth to proclaim the gospel; 5–11, Enemies of the saints shall be confounded.

 

  1 Behold, thus saith the Lord unto you my servants Joseph Smith, Jun., and Sidney Rigdon, that the time has verily come that it is necessary and expedient in me that you should open your mouths in ^aproclaiming my gospel, the things of the kingdom, expounding the ^bmysteries thereof out of the scriptures, according to that portion of Spirit and power which shall be given unto you, even as I will.

  2 Verily I say unto you, proclaim unto the world in the regions round about, and in the church also, for the space of a season, even until it shall be ^amade known unto you.

  3 Verily this is a mission for a season, which I give unto you.

  4 Wherefore, ^alabor ye in my vineyard. Call upon the inhabitants of the earth, and bear record, and prepare the way for the commandments and revelations which are to come.

  5 Now, behold this is wisdom; whoso readeth, let him ^aunderstand and ^breceive also;

  6 For unto him that receiveth it shall be given more ^aabundantly, even power.

  7 Wherefore, ^aconfound your ^benemies; call upon them to ^cmeet you both in public and in private; and inasmuch as ye are faithful their ^dshame shall be made manifest.

  8 Wherefore, let them bring forth their ^astrong reasons against the Lord.

  9 Verily, thus saith the Lord unto you—there is no ^aweapon that is formed against you shall prosper;

  10 And if any man lift his voice against you he shall be ^aconfounded in mine own due time.

  11 Wherefore, ^akeep my commandments; they are true and faithful. Even so. Amen.

Are you claiming that C.S. Lewis was a Mormon?

When a confounded person finally sees the Light; yes; they ALL become Mormon!

The LDS organization has the TRUTH, and is the ONLY authorized dispenser thereof!

--MormonDude(Proud of my faith!)

[Elsie]

Here’s C.S. Lewis’s quote again: C. S. Lewis, considered by many as the twentieth century’s foremost proponent of “orthodox” Christianity and quoted elsewhere by the authors, claimed, “There are no ordinary people. We live in a society of possible gods and goddesses” (Weight of Glory, William B. Eerdmans Publishing Company [Grand Rapids, Michigan], pp. 1P15)...

Indeed we do!

They are known as Liberals!!!

[Elsie]

Amen!!!

I sure agree here!

We’d have to wait until, like Joshua and Caleb, for the present generation of True Believers to pass away.

[Elsie]

Yeah!!!

What she said!!!

Resty, and other apologists here,

You wrote... “...I know different and was taught by the Holy Ghost not some traditioin of men”

YET, in this weeks news, I can’t help but see articles about
another Mormon, Warren Jeffs, who claims to be taught by
the Holy Ghost, so he knows what is true. He claims to be
a prophet, which trumps your own claims of merely communicating
with the Holy Ghost.

Since he makes the SAME truth claim basis as you do, and
yet you do not recognize his Mormon Church, how can you
KNOW that you are right and he is wrong???

His church even has more recent revelation than yours.

As a Christian, I recognize the teaching of the Holy Spirt -
who takes of the things of Christ and gives them to believers,
teaching them. He never contradicts the Bible. As soon as
something I feel or imagine contradicts the clear teaching
of scripture, I know it wasn’t the Holy Spirit.

Yet in post after post, there is a resort to the burning
of the bosom and the testimony of the Holy Ghost by
Mormons here. When scripture is referred to by this group,
it is ALWAYS taken out of context, twisted, imbued with
ideas that are not in scripture.

By your own professed standard, Warren Jeffs and his Mormon
church are true - the Holy Ghost speaks directly to him as
a prophet. This is how he knows, among other things, that
polygamy is to be practiced. Yet you will deny his claims
of truth and seek to use yours as a trump card time and time
again. Sorry, same standard of subjective truth has equal
value -> none.

Watch this. Its stadard fare. Don’t answer the question they asked, answer the question they should have asked! LOL. They are trained to do this.

[JRochelle]

That whole Warren Jeffs thing is disgusting.
Stop and think the his prophet also took 2 14 year olds as brides.

[JRochelle]

I swear, you have multiple personalities!

[restornu]

All of your post contain some form of mockery towards “The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints” this one isn’t any different!

BTW There is NO such thing as the Mormon Church in the Kingdom of the Lord Jesus Christ!

There is only One name that was given by the Lord of how his Church should be called and that is

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints

There is no prefix or suffix

[restornu]

It seems you take pleasure in distoring about the Lord's servants!

Robert Millet on How to Deal with Anti-Mormons
Here is the complete talk given in how one should address their hostile opponent!

If you are honest you wouldn't expect President Bush to be chummy with the opposing forces would you?

[JRochelle]

Distort?

Me?

Did you not watch the video? It is a lesson on how to distort.

[restornu]

Nice try silly girl!
