No. When are you going to start acting like Him?
In post #256, I asked everyone to read the resist not evil link before replying to me.http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/religion/2957951/posts?page=256#256
I'll just turn the other cheek with the rest of your prideful and boastful post that pings the world. Look those words up in Scripture before you really make a fool of yourself.
When you people stop crucifying Christians.
Posters who find that contentious town square format uncomfortable should instead read and post to Religion Forum threads labeled "ecumenical" "caucus" "prayer" or "devotional."
Anyone who considers the exposure of the falseness of various cults on FR as persecution is nothing but a liar and needs a good reality check.
Then why do you keep referencing him and encouraging others to read his works?
Because post 256 sure leaves one with a different impression of your opinion of Swedenborg.
An observation is that you were encouraging others to read him and accept his teachings until someone pointed out that he was also a Lutheran, and then backed off.
And now you're NOT a follower of his?
Excuse me if I find that hard to believe that you don't follow him. Your own words make that difficult.

Are they "devils" for exposing the peculiarities and inventions of Mormonism which go against scripture, deleting portions, adding others, twisting the meanings, making it into yet another works-based theology? (that is, if one were to closely follow the "Mormon" plan of salvation by that cult's own declared doctrines) Are they "devils" for utilizing information from within Mormonism itself to make their case?
One can be a bit turned off by the "piling on" as you termed it. I've seen quite a bit of that sort of thing, myself. [check my sign-up date. I've been a couple of years longer than that] Yet to throw a wet blanket over the entire effort is to prohibit or censor frank discussion, too.
**Kids used to hassle me because of my Church in school. ***
I’ve remember kids on our school bus that I later found were Mormons. I don’t ever remember anyone hassling them because of it.
The most problems came when the LDS and RLDS kids got into shouting matches about who was “correct”.
Joseph Smith established a wholly American religion which we believed was influenced by Swedenborgian missionaries. This should be celebrated and embraced - it is not theology motivated by political pressures in Europe to break from Rome. The Lord works through all men. Just because you feel it is an 'error' tells me you have a closed mind and hold your understanding as an unmovable stone.
Look at our Heaven and Hell Facebook Page - almost 35,000 likes since it was set up a short time ago and growing by more than 100 a day. Be there or be square!
Bingo!
Anyone is free to *celebrate* error if they choose but no true believer in Jesus can.
*Error* about Jesus is nothing less than demonic deceit. It's all lies from the father of lies designed to do nothing less than get men to reject Jesus and damn men and women to hell.
Meanwhile, in Egypt, there has been some report of actual, recent crucifixion of a few Christians. I cannot vouch for the accuracy of those reports, nor can I dismiss them as false.
MM-- when did you crucify anybody? I must have missed that day.
Or should I say "when will you stop"? along those lines is; When did you stop beating up your husband? When did you stop writing bad checks? When did you give up shoplifting?
Sheesh.
I demand respect for my beliefs but welcome any and all serious inquiries. I don't 'preach'. We choose an engaged approach, which really the only ministry that did that was Christ's.
I'm armored up. I'm here to engage the enemy.
Thanks again for your work.
I defend a dead man who is not here to defend himself. Romney didn’t express his faith because this site turned out to be opposition research central. He lost because of fear. I have no fear like that.
Oh, Davy. You are free to believe and feel whatever you want (no one has said otherwise), and those of us who know mormonISM from personal experience and reading their own words are free to expose the blasphemy of mormonISM.
The mormons who left, left because they chose to to leave.
Really, Davy your self persecution complex is worrisome.
Three things Davy, please show these hateful posts you refer to frequently; which God are you referring to (God Almighty, or the lds gods or the all paths lead to god, god that you seem to trumpet). And people call me Cindy.
