You are God, right? The One who passes Judgment? Nope. And I won't become "god" - I am not working my way to godhood (exaltation), God does not report to me as my "right hand man", and I didn't claim that humanity will have to be judged by Christ and me.
Guess who did?
To: SkyPilot
Nope. And I won’t become “god
With your attitude it is best you stop at anglehood!:)

Nope. And I wont become god 19 And again, verily I say unto you, if a man marry a wife by my word, which is my law, and by the new and everlasting covenant, ...Ye shall come forth in the first resurrection; ...and shall inherit thrones, kingdoms, principalities, and powers, dominions, ...and they shall pass by the angels, and the gods, which are set there, to their exaltation and glory in all things, as hath been sealed upon their heads, which glory shall be a fulness and a continuation of the seeds forever and ever.
20 Then shall they be gods, because they have no end; therefore shall they be from everlasting to everlasting, because they continue; then shall they be above all, because all things are subject unto them. Then shall they be gods, because they have all power, and the angels are subject unto them.
21 Verily, verily, I say unto you, except ye abide my law ye cannot attain to this glory.
22 For strait is the gate, and narrow the way that leadeth unto the exaltation and continuation of the lives, and few there be that find it, because ye receive me not in the world neither do ye know me.
(Doctrine and Covenants 132:19-22)

15
Therefore, if a man marry him a wife in the world, and he marry her not by me nor by my word, and he covenant with her so long as he is in the world and she with him, their covenant and marriage are not of force when they are dead, and when they are out of the world; therefore, they are not bound by any law when they are out of the world. 16 Therefore, when they are out of the world they neither marry nor are given in marriage; but are appointed angels in heaven, which angels are ministering servants, to minister for those who are worthy of a far more, and an exceeding, and an eternal weight of glory.
17 For these angels did not abide my law; therefore, they cannot be enlarged, but remain separately and singly, without exaltation, in their saved condition, to all eternity; and from henceforth are not gods, but are angels of God forever and ever.
18 And again, verily I say unto you, if a man marry a wife, and make a covenant with her for time and for all eternity, if that covenant is not by me or by my word, which is my law, and is not sealed by the Holy Spirit of promise, through him whom I have anointed and appointed unto this power, then it is not valid neither of force when they are out of the world, because they are not joined by me, saith the Lord, neither by my word; when they are out of the world it cannot be received there, because the angels and the gods are appointed there, by whom they cannot pass; they cannot, therefore, inherit my glory; for my house is a house of order, saith the Lord God.

First of all, the papyri were in that Chicago museum for all the world to see for some time, & Josephs translation was never discredited.
On Kolob - maybe.
On THIS planet - over and over!

We HAVE indeed been in the "Land Beyond the Looking Glass" recently, have we not?
1833 sure was attempt to return!...
Number #7.
How Mormon's deal with data presented to them by those they call ANTI's:
1. How you interpret it is wrong... 2. You are too ignorant to really understand it because you are not a member.... 3. You're not qualified to judge because you're no LONGER a member... 4. You are just a bigot for bringing the whole ugly truth to light ... 5. Sos yer Mama! 6. Laugh it all off and post some silly image. 7. Jump down the rabbit hole; Alice! 8. Bait & Switch 9. The OTHER 'half' of the truth is what we are avoiding. 10. "I Know It When I See It" 11. Hand waving... 12. YOU play defense for a while. 13. HEE Hee hee... let's get the Calvinists and the Armenians fighting! 14. GREAT FUN! Let's get the Catholics and the Protestants fighting! 15. Huh? Did you say something? 16. If I repeat this enough times some folks will be fooled into thinking it's true. 17. Playing dumb. 18. Refusing to answer because your ATTITUDE offends them. 19. (Let's see if they'll fall for the 'Defend a freak' ploy.) |
And a good try at #12, too!

The mormons are obsessed with Joseph Smiths sexual sins...And one on THIS thread is obsessed with MINE!

The "Caractors" are the only tangible evidence in existence related to Smith's story. No gold plates, no brass plates, no peep stones, no Urim and Thummim... only these "Caractors," not a single one of which is in the purported languages.
Smith's translation of the Caractors. According to Martin Harris (Joseph Smith - History, 1:64), "I went to the city of New York, and presented the characters which had been translated, with the translation thereof, to Professor Charles Anthon, a gentleman celebrated for his literary attainments. Professor Anthon stated that the translation was correct, more so than any he had before seen translated from the Egyptian. I then showed him those which were not yet translated,* and he said they were Egyptian, Chaldaic, Assyriac, and Arabic; and he said they were true characters."
Speak right up now in all truthfulness. Isn't it revealing how Smith started out making a stab at creating believable "caractors" but quckly gave up and produced nothing but squiggles, ending up wih a series of nothing more than crude little scribbles? Yet Professor Anthon supposedly translated them!
*Harris must have had two or three pieces of paper with himone with characters and a translation of them (on the same paper or a separate one) and one with untranslated charactersquite likely the "Caractors." Some Mormon "scholars" have gone out on a limb, sawed it off, and knocked themselves out trying to translate from these true Egyptian, Chaldaic, Assyriac, and Arabic characters a segment that would correspond with a verse from 1 Nephi.
Modern-day experts in Egyptian, Chaldaic, Assyriac, and Arabic. In 1829, any knowledge of these languages possessed by U.S. scholars would have been rudimentary at best. Expertise in them has vastly improved since then. So go ahead, do it. Get any modern expert in these languages to identify which of these "Caractors" are Egyptian, Chaldaic, Assyriac and Arabic. Better still, accept the claim of Mormon apologists that Anthon did indeed so testify and that his appraisal of the Caractors was correct. (Op. cit, pp. 73-75)
Save your money! Samples of Assyriac/Aramaic and Arabic writing:
What say you? Which of Smith's "Caractors" resemble the Assyriac and Arabic ones? No need to pay experts for their analysis. A child could accurately check this out. These writing systems have remained constant for well over 3000 years.

How do you deal with this contradiction?Easy!
They are STUPID 'egyptologists' who wouldn't know how to 'translate' by REVELATION if it bit them on the LYIN' couch!!
