    Anything Goes LDS Thread (Everyone Welcome)

    This feels like a trick question Tomspug. How about if you go first? Would you kill someone if you felt 100% certain that God told you to do it?

    Christ According To The Mormons

    I accept this as scripture Francine. It's just that I see it as God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Ghost. Jesus, being a part of the Godhead, condescended and agreed to come to this earth, to take on a human body, and offered himself as a sacrifice to redeem men from death, and the...

    Radical Muslims

    I've noticed that we have some Islamic friends on this forum, and I would like to ask a really tough question. Before doing so I need to qualify it some: I see all people as children of God. I am not prejudiced. I am naiive as to Muslim beliefs for the most part. I am not asking this...

    Anything Goes LDS Thread (Everyone Welcome)

    Missionaries, and other members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, are encouraged to teach the FUNDAMENTALS of LDS doctrine. By definition that means faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, repentance, baptism, modern revelation, the restoration of the gospel back to the earth...

    The Nicene Creed

    Ok, so it was Theophilus who defined the nature of God. So let me ask a few questions as it relates to the 'trinity'. I'm not trying to be sarcastic here. Just trying to understand how the trinity compares to the word of God: At the Baptism of Christ a voice was heard from Heaven, right...

    what exactly is a messianic jew

    It was explained to me that being a Jew is matter of lineage, not religion. If you can trace your bloodlines back to Abraham then you're Jewish.

    Yes, that would be more accurate. Of course I didn't know you were answering these questions too Katzpur. :yes:

    Anything Goes LDS Thread (Everyone Welcome)

    It is abundantly clear in all of scripture that God has been God from beginning to end, from everlasting to everlasting, and that IS the doctrine of the LDS church. We believe in the word of God as manifested in the scriptures. Joseph Smith is no longer here to clarify exactly what he meant...

    The name of the church is The Church of JESUS CHRIST of Latter-day Saints. As foretold by Christ the church that HE established while here in the flesh soon fell into a state of apostasy after the persecution and death of the original apostles and saints. Divine authority to act in the name of...

    Anything Goes LDS Thread (Everyone Welcome)

    The Book of Mormon tells of two families who left Jerusalem around 600 B.C. (during the time of Jeremiah the prophet) and made their way to the Americas. They brought scripture with them, and obeyed the law of Moses. They were of Israelite descent. Over time civil war led to their demise...

    The Nicene Creed

    It was in the third century that the emperor Constantine gathered the best philosophers of his day, along with several Catholic bishops, and threw them in a room together with a mandate to come to a consensus as to the nature of God. These discussions, as one can imagine, were contested and...

    Christ According To The Mormons

    Your response is a bit complicated Francine. Still, I think the complexity for you is encompassed in your perception of the 'trinity.' I too see God as being unchangeable. It would be a bit scary praying to a supreme being who might not be in a state of perfection. But when you look at the...

    Christ According To The Mormons

    I promise to get my picture fixed tomorrow. Francine, this IS substantially in error. Mormons and scriptures teach that God is the Father of ALL, that all of us lived as spirit children to a loving heavenly father before coming to this earth. Notice that of all the names we could reverence...

    Original sin

    I'm glad you're open minded enough to read it.:yes:

    Original sin

    Yes! They broke a law. Because of them death was introduced into the world. They had to suffer a consequence for their "sin". I'm just suggesting that it was part of a bigger plan - an introduction to the plan of salvation, as it were. Adam introduces sin, death, and mortality as part of...

    Original sin

    I agree there was a consequence to their action, and that part of that consequence was a spiritual death (separation from God). I just think there's a lot more to it than meets the eye. I'm new on here but I noticed you posted a question from Alma sometime ago. Wow! Now try reading 2 Nephi...

    Original sin

    What makes you think it was such a bad decision Francine? From my perspective Adam and Eve were living in a state of innocence in the Garden of Eden. By partaking of the tree of knowledge of good and evil they gained wisdom that they never otherwise would have acquired. Becoming mortal meant...
