Exactly right. Call all you want. I stand by it.
- Acceptance of the Gospel is required for salvation.
- Smith was the prophet through whom the Gospel was restored.
THEREFORE IT FOLLOWS THAT:
- Acceptance of Smith is required for salvation.
Why is this so difficult for so many of you to understand?
Oh, and feel free to take this post, partially quote it, and take it out of context, too. As if I could stop you.

My Dad has the cutest Pug you ever saw. And congrats of Uno the Beagle.
From the LDS hymn book, “There Is a Green Hill Far Away”:
“There is a green hill far away,
Without a city wall,
Where the dear Lord was crucified,
Who died to save us all.
We may not know,
we cannot tell,
What pains he had to bear,
But we believe it was for us
He hung and suffered there.
There was no other good enough
To pay the price of sin.
He only could unlock the gate
Of heav’n and let us in.
Oh, dearly, dearly has he loved!
And we must love him too,
And trust in his redeeming blood,
And try his works to do.”
Song finished; this is Saundra typing now. Don’t you think it is unseemly to question another’s heart-felt beliefs when we know that Jesus died once and for all?
Poor doctrine biblically
"Isaiah 43:10,11. Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD [Jehovah] and my servant whom I have chosen; that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God [Elohim] formed, neither shall there be after me. I, even I, am the LORD [Jehovah]; and beside me there is no savior.
Note from these verses that there are several things which God wants us to know, believe, and understand: (1) There is only one God (Elohim) and Jehovah is that one true God. (2) There were no Elohims formed before Jehovah. This means that Jehovah does not have a Father. That is, no God (Elohim) preceded him, by whom He was procreated. (3) There will be no Elohims formed after Jehovah. Therefore, when God said no gods would be formed after him, it must mean no real, true Gods.
You hope.
GOD does the judging.
From what we believe; you are not.
From what your past leaders have written; THEY did NOT consider themselves Christian.
They did not even want to be known as 'christian'.
You've come a long way, baby.
See above.
That's why these things usually come to an impasse: words do NOT mean the same thinbgs to Mormons.
From what I've observed, neither are you.
That does seem to be the case. CTR indeed!
Romney Rocks!!!
Nope... he loses.
They did not even want to be known as ‘christian’. Or American.
Dog=Presbyterian
Cat=Joe Smith
Keep it up and the RLDS will accept you.
Why?
I seem to remember something about a broken and contrite spirit being a desirable sacrifice before the Lord. There is so much that we have in common - the Lord Jesus Christ, our Savior, first of all.
I am aghast at the contention here. Why? Isn’t this America where we are free to believe as our consciences dictate?
From the LDS hymn book, “Again, Our Dear Redeeming Lord”:
“Again, our dear redeeming Lord,
We meet in thy beloved name,
While from the fountains of thy love
Thy Spirit kindles like a flame.
For all the anguish of thy soul,
For thy great gift so full and free,
With grateful hearts all penitent,
Dear Lord, we do remember thee.
In token of thy bleeding flesh
And of thy blood so freely spent,
. . . .
We seek thy pardon, dearest Lord,
And may thy favor, too, be sent,
While in our hearts we turn to thee,
Renewed in faith and covenant.”
End of song. This is Saundra typing now. When it comes to our sacred beloved Savior, and what He did for us, His Atoning Sacrifice, it seems we should try to be a little more serious. He died for us all and He is no respecter of persons. (He died for Mormons, too.)
1 Samuel 16:7
But the LORD said to Samuel, "Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The LORD does not look at the things man looks at. Man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart."
