    What do LDS Apostles and Prophets actually do?

    I listened to this podcast yesterday while commuting. Start at 48:00 minutes to about 54:10. 'Prophet's ask the experts (scholars) instead of trying to become experts themselves.' Here is a LDS scholar and apologist, Brant Gardner, explaining that they, the scholars and apologists are the...

     What The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints possess which others don't.

    Your argument here is again Hollow. I have named a score or so of people and "churches" that have claimed everything you claim the LDS church has, and have asked you to show me where the LDS church, the Brighamites, have manifested the things that discussed in DC 110 and other documents of the...

     The LDS Church preaches of Christ

    LOL, yes Ralf, so you agree with both Aaron and I....that the church leaves people guessing. What leaders say is often subjective, and may just very well be opinion. If the church leaders position can't really be trusted as binding doctrine as you quote reads, and that the standard works...

     What The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints possess which others don't.

    Read what I am telling you is the how? Your church is just another in a long line of men pretending to have some special authority and when pressed to defend and prove that they do....you can't. Your so-called prophets, 15 of them don't even teach very much of past teaching let alone new...

     Mormon, whose child are you?

    I genuinely laughed out loud!

     Mormon, whose child are you?

    I was taught that it was "selfish" to not have a "full quiver"....basically 6 to 10 children. It was a huge talking point in the church and just a basic understanding. I understood that we were ALL spirit children of HF and HM, including being a baby and infant. I concede I did not go past that...

     Mormon, whose child are you?

    So what you tell folks is LDS doctrine. Do you speak for the church? Be careful the SCMC might be listening!

     Mormon, whose child are you?

    Well that is just a strawman. The church teaches exalted folks can, and this is directly from a teaching manual, "Gospel Fundamentals"....Chapter 36. To live in the highest part of the celestial kingdom is called exaltation* or eternal life. To be able to live in this part of the celestial...

     What The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints possess which others don't.

    LOL. for the most part the people you said you never heard of are claiming the same things you are claiming as some sort of proof text? They, except for David Alexander, all claim to have the some sort or prooftext to be the true church. They show mortal apostles, heavenly revelations, and to...

     What The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints possess which others don't.

    DB, did you read a thing I wrote? Where did you answer my questions? Are you one of these Mormons that believe Jesus talks with your prophets and apostles in your temples? You believe that TCOJCOLdS, The community of Christ, The Church of Jesus Christ, The Church of Christ with the Elijah...

     What The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints possess which others don't.

    Can you point to me the LDS church has any of those? And if you think Christ did not do enough on the cross for mankind, I get it, that is a fruit or Mormonism. Moving forward... Your first Prophet, Seer, and Revelator was a man, who was deeply into folk magic, digging for money and finding...

     The LDS Church preaches of Christ

    How, you got upset when I disagree with you....read what you wrote. It is very true...."the church" and it's survival comes before everything. Read what you pasted in 221, your faith and what you believe is based on those 15 men and there interpretations. As they die off, new interpretations...

     The LDS Church preaches of Christ

    LOL...it is very relevant. That's a lot of data to go through...it says it resides there, it is no where specially defined or settled. Just read The different LDS forums, and Aarons views, BoJ views, Ralf's views which often disagree. I was a JFS Mormon, which disagrees with a lot of current...

     The LDS Church preaches of Christ

    It's not baseless at all. It is based on all available data by both LDS and non-LDS sources. Did you watch the Mormon Stories episode I provided? I'll be very generous here, and lets say there are 5 million members that attend at least once a month of so. That leave 12 million folks that are...

    Did the 7 year old sin?

    Patience is a virtue and blessing you obviously have. I respect the heck out of you for sharing this.

    Did the 7 year old sin?

    The D&C reads something along the line that Satan has no hold on anyone under 8. I would have to read it. But it is a circular argument and they use words like "innocent."

     The LDS Church preaches of Christ

    Gordon you get upset because I don't agree with your post? Maybe you should just do a blog and don't allow comments. Christians believe that the LDS church worships and believe in another Jesus. GBH and I certainly did believe that us Mormons believed in another Jesus. It is just the way it...

     The LDS Church preaches of Christ

    First who is the author? If it is clear, articulate what doctrine is? My reading of the commentary that was written by who knows who is all over the place. It reads that it changes, it up to personal interpretations, and one needs to understand how to approach it and examine it. Tell me in...

     The LDS Church preaches of Christ

    LOL, well not from the church. And again you don't know, you can only guess. And what is sad you know darn well the church knows, yet the hide that information from you. In order for me to say they are ridiculous, you must first no the stats...so CFR please? If you want a honest attempt start...
