Beck's Bogus Beliefs

March 2011

by T. A. McMahon

"Glenn Beck, the television and radio talk show host who is best known for his conservative political views, isn't someone whom we would normally address in our newsletter. Our concerns are usually directed at individuals, programs, or organizations that promote spiritual or theological views contrary to the Word of God. Beck, of late, seems to be making himself at home in that realm, and he's attracting many who call themselves Bible-believing Christians. ...

First of all, Glenn Beck is a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He may refer to himself as a Christian, but he's certainly not a biblical Christian. The distinction is as wide as hell is from heaven: "Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God" (2 John:9). Mormon doctrine is "another gospel" that exalts "another Jesus." Both false beliefs came out of the deceived and deceiving mind of Joseph Smith. Secondly, "our country" doesn't have "Christian roots," even though some are claiming that our founding fathers were true Christians. Many were not biblical Christians but Christians in name only, who followed the faith of Deism, Masonry, and the philosophy of the Enlightenment. Any early influence in America's history of a biblical nature very likely came from the Pilgrims and the Puritans...."

This Nation was founded on inviting the Spirit of the Lord whom help forge this constitution.

HOW can this BE?

We ALL know that MORMONism teaches that there WAS no spirit until Joseph Smith REVEALED/RESTORED him to the world!

[Elsie]

6 We believe in the same organization that existed in the Primitive Church, namely, apostles, prophets, pastors, teachers, evangelists, and so forth.

7 We believe in the gift of tongues, prophecy, revelation, visions, healing, interpretation of tongues, and so forth.

Ah...

the precision of MORMONism!

[Elsie]

Sweetie:
I already posted this.

Is it better when a TBM posts it?

[Elsie]

Each individual show follow and pracitce their own personal religion

HYPOCRIT!

We'll be stopping by to tell you what is WRONG with what you 'worship'.

[Elsie]

First of all, Christ was addressing the unsaved in that speech, not Christians, so in that context, your interpretation fails. How could His warning concern faith when His warning was directed to those without faith?

Well; since believers had yet to be even CALLED 'christian', you are TECHNICALLY correct. But since this is part of the Sermon on the Mount, a discerning soul would have figured out that there would be a VAST amount of 'believers' in the crowd; right? Matthew 7:1-2

Judge not, that ye be not judged.
For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.

[Elsie]

Thou shall not bear false witness against your neighbor!

Damn!! Thou hast chutzpah!

[fishtank]

BRILLIANT!!!!!!!

[MindBender26]

Of course, they are in every religion.

[Elsie]

But we know from Scripture that it is AFTER the millenial rule that God creates a new Heaven and new Earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.

Silly Christian!

--MormonDude(AoF #8 We believe the Bible to be the word of God as far as it is translated correctly; we also believe the Book of Mormon to be the word of God. )

[Elsie]

And as an aside, Beck is doing a great job (what little I’ve seen of him), politically-speaking.

AMEN!

[Elsie]

When the Missionaries where at my friends house I asked them for the due guards and signs, jokingly, and they just kind of sat there.

But; did you feel BONES when you shook their hands?

Joseph Smith says THAT is how to tell if a personage is REALLY speaking for GOD.

---

Strange that he did not make that test when two Personages talked to him. (But only one did the talking.)

[Elsie]

I found some more scammers trying to get people to fork over cash for their "prophecies" and DVDs!

At LEAST if you go on a MORMON tour; you'll get to see some sights and perhaps go swimming!!

[Elsie]

Since you either WILL not or CAN not support your assertion; I guess I’ll just have to dismiss what you claim.

[Elsie]

Can you explain this when mormons claim there was no “God fearing” no “Christianity” till JS restored it all?

It's all right there in Brother PD's links; you lazy, HATEFUL Bigot!

--MormonDude(I'd find it for you myself; but why should I do your work for you?)

[SZonian]

You profess to be a follower of his [Masters], you have a link to his web page on your home page, you stated that he teaches “perfection” is an ongoing process, how does this then reconcile with Christian teaching/belief that God is perfect?

If, as you say, I can’t infer that you don’t believe God is perfect.

I can see why the mormon theology/doctrine/teachings of man becoming a god, and god being as man once was, doesn’t appear to bother you.

[Elsie]

Gideons give their Bibles away for free.

If the things the missionaries share are interesting and meaningful to you, you can set up another appointment to discuss them in more depth and learn more. They can give you a Book of Mormon and accompany you to church meetings so that you can see for yourself what our faith is about.

I think the basic Mormon-Gnostic correlation is in the concept of duality.

I think the basic Mormon/Christian correlation is in the concept of the PRESBYTERIANs tossing JS out on his ear!
