How about you explain the Mormonism concept of eternal progression to us, starting with what existed before god created the Universe of all things. It might be helpful for readers if you would be more truthful on these threads. Or do you actually know what your own leadership has taught as their truth in this regard?

"What does it do to a man's soul to denigrate another man's faith?" Delph When opposing blasphemies, it regales a Christian's soul, Delph. Didn't you know? Are you familiar with the opposition to Baal worship written about in the Old Testament and alluded to by Paul in the New Testament?

The entire of Mormonism is founded upon denigrating ALL of Christianity. Have you forgotten? Your 'prophet' and subsequent leaders of the LDS have proclaimed that all of Christianity was in apostasy until Joseph Smith 'restored the gospel'.

Son, that is about as deep a denigration as is possible toward the Catholic Church and the Protestant reformation. It is also a very personal denigration to those who have believed on Jesus and receive God's Grace, prior to the advent of Joe Smith.

Your chosen religion of Mormonism was founded upon the lie that since the 2nd Century until Joseph Smith turned his peepstone toward religious pursuits, Salvation was suspended awaiting Mormon baptism for the dead, and the Catholic Church was not able to baptise nor were any saved prior to Mormonism baptism by proxy!

Those are the facts regarding Mormonism assertions, yet you have the blind foolishness to accuse anyone opposing Mormonism of denigrating another man's faith? ... Do you really, really want us to go against what the Bible teaches: that we should oppose those who would pervert the Gospel of God's Grace in Christ Jesus? ...

And to play one of your little ploys, I fully expect you will go off on a tangent and not answer the questions of precisely how LDS inc defines eternal progression and the preexistence of eternal matter in which a mortal became the God of Heaven and sired Jesus and Lucifer 'from His loins exalted'.

[Speaking now to the demon which holds Mormon souls closed: 'I may stumble in the work, but I will not give up on these you have blinded, no matter how insulting and childish your words through them become. Their souls are precious to the Lord and my instruction from the Bible to contend for their souls is clear and profound. So, 'live with it' or continue in eternal death with it. In the name of Jesus Christ, I oppose you openly.]

Meant to include you in the ping as a fellow Inman. Not asking for assistance, just thought you might find the exchanges ‘interesting’.

AMEN!

Sure, right after you explain the trinity and transubstantiation to my satisfaction....

Yeah...

I asked how denigrating a man's faith affected the denigrator's soul... When opposing blasphemies, it regales a Christian's soul, Delph. Didn't you know? Are you familiar with the opposition to Baal worship written about in the Old Testament and alluded to by Paul in the New Testament? Mormons are not Baal Worshipers, Paul never denigrated anyone's faith. Your analogy is insulting and innocent of factual basis.

Then you topped it with this illogical verbiage:
The entire of Mormonism is founded upon denigrating ALL of Christianity. Have you forgotten? Your 'prophet' and subsequent leaders of the LDS have proclaimed that all of Christianity was in apostasy until Joseph Smith 'restored the gospel'. ROTFLOL!!!

The Bible is replete with prophets being called to call repentance to those in apostasy, I guess to you the Prophets who preached repentance were all dengrators...

Jesus Christ called all men to repent and come to the true gospel, I guess you think he was just another denigrator.

The disagreement with Mormons often starts or ends with the Trinity Vs. Godhead. The common argument of the "Orthodox" is that we Mormons say we are Christians, but since we don't believe the Trinity we can't be. Which is just silly. The First council at Nicea was not held until 325Ad. which mans that all who died with a faith in Jesus before that time were not Christians, including Jesus and the Disciples.

Next you act all wounded. As if my belief hurts you, grow a thicker skin, at least we're not damning you to hell or calling you a demon.

If my chosen religion was founded on a lie, have you ever read the "stuff" that went on in some of the pope(s) bedchambers?

And to play one of your little ploys, I fully expect you will go off on a tangent and not answer the questions of precisely how LDS inc defines eternal progression and the preexistence of eternal matter in which a mortal became the God of Heaven and sired Jesus and Lucifer 'from His loins exalted'.

Actually, I'd be happy to, once I point out that I am not required to answer your interrogatories, but i will happily do so to show how little you know of our beliefs and the Bible.

The Bible in Romans 8:16-17 Says:
16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: 17 And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.
So, if we are saved with Christ we will become like him and like God inheriting "all the father hath", just like Jesus for the Bible says we will be Joint heirs with him, and we do more than just believe in the Bible, we believe what it says.

Now as to the second part of your question, Do Mormons Believe Jesus and Satan are brothers? it's been answered for a long time on my page, link above, so obviously I don't feel the need to run from an answer I have posted on my page.

Again, I find your knowledge of the Bible lacking, whether intentional, or unintentional it is the same. You ask questions designed to be unanswerable, how frustrated you must be when we slice through your "Gordian Knots" with the sword of truth,

Jesus lives! He is my God my Salvation. In his bosom, I rest.

God bless.

P.S. Now I am back to where there is a computer I can use, posting from my phone is just not as effective.

Delph
