Do you keep the whole law, Delph?

To the Best of my ability, Jesus will be my judge, not you.

OK, this is funny, James 2:11 the very next scripture, uses Murder as a law to break which makes you an adulterer as well.

11 For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if thou commit no adultery, yet if thou kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law.
Kill anyone lately? If not, you are keeping one law, and by your logic must keep them all...

I knew this would be good for a laugh!

Then there's James 10:14-26, same chapter, just a bit further down. It kind of puts another few nails in the coffin of "we've already been saved by grace and don't need to do anything" theology.

Twisting

A twisting dive performed from a 3 meter springboard.Dives with multiple twists and somersaults are some of the most spectacular movements, as well as the most challenging to perform.

The rules state that twisting 'must not be generated manifestly on take-off'. Consequently, divers must use some of the somersaulting angular momentum to generate twisting movements. The physics of twisting can be explained by looking at the components of the angular momentum vector.

As the diver leaves the board, the total angular momentum vector is horizontal, pointing directly to the left for a forward dive for example. For twisting rotation to exist, it is necessary to tilt the body sideways after takeoff, so that there is now a small component of this horizontal angular momentum vector along the body's long axis. The tilt can be seen in the photo.

The tilting is done by the arms, which are outstretched to the sides just before the twist. When one arm is moved up and the other is moved down (like turning a big steering wheel), the body reacts by tilting to the side, which then begins the twisting rotation. At the completion of the required number of twist rotations, the arm motion is reversed (the steering wheel is turned back), which removes the body's tilt and stops the twisting rotation.

An alternative explanation is that the moving arms have precession torque on them which set the body into twisting rotation. Moving the arms back produces opposite torque which stops the twisting rotation.

Yoo hoo? Working on finding me a missing vital truth?

Really Du are you forgetting that under mormon doctrine, you must keep the law perfectly and completely for your salvation.

How are your wandering eyes been doing?

Still repenting for sins you’ve repented of at least once already?

At Sacrament meeting each week, do you renew your covenants to keep God’s commandments?

Have you walked blameless before God? Are you sufficiently humble, stripped of pride and envy? Would it be honest to admit that you have not done “all” you can do for salvation and that you are “not prepared to meet God”?

Have you denied yourself of “all ungodliness”?

Do you keep God’s commandments “continually?”?

Tell us how your works are going to save you Du
