Saw a video today of man who talked with some LDS missionaries. He posed the question, "what tribe of Israel are you from?" What tribes are the Mormons here from?
I musta blinked and missed it!!!!!!The answer ir RIGHT HERE!!!
Wanna see it again??
I'm from one of them. Which one is none of your business. I don't intend that in a bad way, but why would I want to share that with you?And which one are you from?
Well, it was a question. I don't see anything secretive about it other than you. The missionaries have no problem sharing, it seems. The vast majority are from Ephraim and you are likely in that group. Ok. We will discuss that is a bit.I'm from one of them. Which one is none of your business.

None of that answers my question. Is that what we're going to discuss in a bit? I'm curious why u think I would want to share any of that with u?Well, it was a question.

But my guess is that's not what u meant.
Galations 3, NIV:
5 So again I ask, does God give you his Spirit and work miracles among you by the works of the law, or by your believing what you heard? 6 So also Abraham “believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.”[c]
7 Understand, then, that those who have faith are children of Abraham. 8 Scripture foresaw that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, and announced the gospel in advance to Abraham: “All nations will be blessed through you.” 9 So those who rely on faith are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith.
Apparently there will be no discussion with you for you are declining to answer a simple question. You have been given a patriarchal blessing I assume. Were you told what tribe you were from and what is it? Not like it is a temple ceremony "secret". Missionaries share it. Theo's friend shared it with Theo. It is relative to Mormonism and hence I asked the question.None of that answers my question. Is that what we're going to discuss in a bit?

So? What's your point? Nowhere in the Bible does it say that Gentile believers in the world are not a descendant of this or that tribe. I don't see where your opinion on the matter has any relevance whatsoever.Nowhere in the Bible does it say any Gentile believer in the world is a descendant of this or that tribe of Israel.
I answered your simple question. If you want to talk about the practice, have at it, but talking about me, personally? That is not a topic for discussion on this board. It seems to me that you are the one who won't answer "a simple question". Why would I want to share that information with you?Apparently there will be no discussion with you for you are declining to answer a simple question.
What others have done is of no importance to me. My question to you is why would I want to share it with you? What possible reason would I have to do that? Asking me a personal question in a public forum doesn't warrant an answer unless there you can convince me that it does. Answer my question and we'll see.You have been given a patriarchal blessing I assume. Were you told what tribe you were from and what is it? Not like it is a temple ceremony "secret". Missionaries share it. Theo's friend shared it with Theo. It is relative to Mormonism and hence I asked the question.
My point is...what I wrote. Mormons build beliefs on stuff that is nonsense and nowhere has any biblical support, and actually goes against what the Bible ACTUALLY SAYS--showing that their boast that they believe the Bible is an empty one.So? What's your point? Nowhere in the Bible does it say that Gentile believers in the world are not a descendant of this or that tribe. I don't see where your opinion on the matter has any relevance whatsoever.
"Doxed"? What is that, Theo?So you're afraid you'll be "doxed"?!
Why would you NOT want to share it with us?
I have a Mormon friend, and he gratuitously shared with me that he was from the tribe of Benjamin.
He wasn't ashamed of it.
Maybe you are?
"Doxed"? What is that, Theo?
