Your HATRED of the Mormons is blinding you greyfoxx39 (I’m starting to wonder if you’re actually a sodomite supporter in “sheep’s clothing”).

And perhaps you are a mittbot in a 3-piece suit with a slick hairdoo.

Bot, by continually posting the same tripe over and over and yet lacking the fortitude to engage in it's criticism...

Well let just say you are one of our best players...

Indeed you may well be the smoothest “anti-mormonism” guy around.

Perhaps we should make you an honorary “Flying Inman”...

For the record, and for the lurkers, bot has only posted 4 times and all for times has been the same post.

He will run away as he always does. Willing to put money on the fact this is a second account.

Pray too for the Mormon with whom you are speaking, asking that the Lord would break through the fog of error that clouds his mind ...

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Most important is that we pray to God for help in removing the beams in our own eyes so that we can see more clearly.

My point is, he fails to engage in dialogue, he ‘drive bys’ the same post, and he most likely has another FR account.

All signs of someone who cannot carry the debate.

These websites (and dozens more) are kidding, right?

Get over your HATRED of another denomination of Christianity; you’ll be a better person for it.

Ahhhhh, so this is all about Mitt Romney? I get it now.

Romney is a pseudo-con; I wasn’t aware that the Mormon religion was responsible for that.

Sounds like you had a close call. I also oppose nitpicky fights in the Body of Christ. I am non-denominational and infighting over minutiae bothers me greatly.

If we agree on the basics, (Trinity and Person, Nature and Work of Jesus Christ - including Salvation by grace) then I pretty much accept them as Brothers and Sisters in the Lord (that includes Calvinists and Wesleyans).

Where I draw the line are groups like the LDS and JWs and a few others based upon their teachings of the above “essentials”.

I didn’t even really have a problem with “meat” doctrines of the LDS. I accepted many things then that I now cringe at (Adam/God, theosis, Jesus and Satan being “spirit brothers”, atonement in the Garden rather than on the Cross).

For me the issue came when I was preparing to serve an LDS mission and was told I was only to tell “investigators” certain doctrines and to flat out deny others if they came up. I couldn’t reconcile believing the LDS had the WHOLE truth and being told to mislead people intentionally.

While I regret the years I spent in the LDS church in some ways, in other ways, I can see God used those experiences to break me, to show me that I NEEDED Him alone, and that I could NEVER do anything to contribute to my own Salvation, only Christ could.

Those experiences have also served to warn others and to witness to the LDS.

Please continue to pray for the LDS. Only God can open their eyes.

I heard the “milk and meat” mentioned and didn’t understand the context at the time. Once I left the LDS church and learned what it meant, that was an “I’m glad I got out of there” moment.

I imagine it was. :)

Heck, maybe all of Christianity should just surrender and let ourselves be killed by people who do wish to kill us in the name of their faith.

If someone wishes to kill me because of my faith and testimony of Jesus Christ, then go ahead. I will gladly die for my Lord if necessary.

Then you best set the people at Wikipedia.org straight: (Let em know that the Lutheran belief is the ONLY way to heaven!).

 

 

List of Christian denominations (or Denominations self-identified as Christian) ordered by historical and doctrinal relationships. (See also: Christianity; Christian denominations; List of Christian denominations by number of members).

 

 

Know any folks who SELF-IDENTIFY as REPUBLICANS?

 

We know them as RINOs...
