I cut my teeth on mormonism over 40 years ago...

I worked with one who destroyed my belongings badmouthed me to our co-workers and demanded that our boss fire me...

The Mormon missionary was the one who left in a huff...

But not before she left a pile of literature about Mormonism and Joey Smith digging in the dirt in his Sunday-go-to-meeting clothes and polygamy etc behind...

she had been wooing our very land rich and money rich bosses and they said No thanks we’re Methodists..

She kept telling them more and more secrets and they finally convinced her I guess...

In one afternoon after she had left, my boss taught me all she had been told about Mormonism

and begged me never to join them that they were a cult and not Chritsin

at 19 I had been already saved for 11 years and read the Bible several times...

Even I recognized that what i was reading and discussing with my boss was not Christianity but blasphemy of an evil seductive sort...

So God allowed me to know then in 1968 more probably that your average BIC Mormon knows today...

Ive watched them evolve from not claiming to be Christians to trying to replace real Christians..

The old replacement theology at work...

Theyve added the Mormon holy ghost and a few other things since 1968..

although its more of a mascot lap dog...

It doesnt have any power and doesnt do anything...

Oh and its not entitled to a body like the Mormon gods and the Mormon jesus has...

It hasnt earned one...

Sorry, Nana, you may think you know a lot about the Church, but your comment there reveals that you really know very little.

I joined the Church in 1970. The Holy Ghost was taught then, and clear back to the founding of the Church, just as it was in the New Testament and in the Book of Mormon.

The Holy Ghost is the third member of the Godhead,. His mission is to testify of truth through the power of the Spirit, which is why He is still a spirit and will receive His body after the great work of God and Christ are done...He having been the one all along to drive the message home into the hearts of mankind.

It is why the Church has allways Baptised people in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.

That’s what the church teaches and has taught from the start. The Holy Ghost was not “added” after 1968. And the church certainly does not teach or consider that He is a “lapdog.”

Your use of such terms to descibe the beliefs of others is not beoming of you, Nana...it is direspectful and shows vitriol and mockery that, IMHO, is unbecoming a Christian.

But just so you can know, that is what the Church teaches.

Have a great Memorial Day weekend.
