Calvin - a mormon archaeologist?!?
Chuckle. You should know by now there is no such thing as a Mormon Bible Scholar or Greek/Hebrew for that matter. At least none who are recognized by the fields at large.
Well, one would certainly HOPE they can at least understand how to use a lexicon before talking smack.
Indeed, dear sister in Christ.
You know, it took me several years to be comfortable using sister/brother after leaving the LDS. But when I did finally start using them, it was because I meant it, not as a ‘title’ or custom.
The church universal is a very real family.
Homosexual Church of Jesus Christ, Denver, Colorado, 1972
A homosexual LDS splinter group?
How queer...
It must be the true church...
Its got Jesus in the name...
Plus Jesus died for homosexuals too...
Right, Sandy ???
Maybe trying to turn the wine of the Bible into the water of the BOM is the problem.
HeHeHE So what there is only one Gospel not all the wanabees...
you are all the wanabees....
You have nothing but the fairy tales in your egg heads!
What does that mean?
The mormons have egg on their faces as usual
Applause.
And a chuckle for “Cover your ears but for heaven’s sake, open your eyes sandy.”
Yep, they won’t ‘question’ their leaders, but WILL test God.
Does anyone else see that as odd?
“God gave us Jesus so He could bear to look upon our filthiness and call us His children.” {T}
We agree. {SD}

But that is NOT what the LDS church teaches. The LDS church teaches that we are BORN ‘children of God’.
We can’t be God’s children and Him unable to look at us because of our sin.
We BECOME Children of God by ADOPTION when we are washed clean by the Blood of Jesus the moment we are saved.
Mormonism in no wise teaches that.
Paul spoke of levels of Heaven.
- - - - -
I covered this in a post to you the other night.
Paul refers to the THIRD HEAVEN.
Anyone with an introductory knowledge of Greek religion/philosophy knows that the PAGANS taught there were three ‘heavens’ NOT 3 LEVELS of the abode of GOD.
The ‘first heaven’ is the abode of the birds, the visible sky.
The ‘second heaven’ is the abode of the stars, the night sky.
The ‘third heaven’ is the abode of the gods (or God to Paul).
To claim that paul is speaking about the levels of heaven like the LDS teach is not only UNBIBLICAL it is also extremely STUPID.
that would require brain cells and from what we see they have the brain cells of amoebae.
LOL. I’m expecting a ‘restoration’ of it sometime soon.
