The Sprit IS the Holy Ghost they are the same.
You said “So you do not believe that the Spirit is also called the Holy Ghost?
You are telling me that a Christian who becomes a thief, a murderer, or even a non-believer will still have the Holy Ghost?”
Then they either weren’t a Christian in the first place or they have lost their salvation because of their divorcing Christ (no longer having faith, becoming a non-believer). I never claimed a non-believer would have the Holy Ghost.
What I am saying, is that we have the Holy Ghost based upon OUR FAITH, not our works. The Holy Ghost will never leave a believer. The LDS doctrine that we must work and be ‘worthy’ through our WORKS to keep the Holy Ghost is not Biblical.
Indeed...
Matt 5:16 Why did the Savior say, “Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify
your Father which is inn heaven.”? (Works glorifying Heavenly Father?)Is this not a good thing?
I recognize there are other scriptures that seem to contradict this. As for me and my house I will believe The Savior.
You were LDS, to each his own.
I find confusion in Christianity, arguing over Homosexuality,arguing over death bed repentance, new bibles
printed on a regular basis. The success of many congregations is based on entertainment and a flamboyant minister.
Just this week a minister at NASCAR auto races, amongst other inappropriate things, prayed for “His hot Wife”.Congregations are accepting modern liberal thoughts as part of church doctrine.
You have a problem with LDS doctrine, look around your own kingdom.
I think you and yours would be much happier looking for the good.
