  1. I went to the Bishop after some heay duty petting and told him I got myself into some trouble with my wife to be. He got a very concerned look on his face. When I told him what happened he smiled and said be more carefull bye bye.
  2. what ya do, read my mind lol
  3. There have been cases where dating a non member has turned out very well, allthough as has been mentioned dating a member is a good thing. I am dating a non member myself. She loves the church and will be baptized soon enough.

    Magic Jack phone

    I know some people who use it. One person I know would def. not use it if the addware was bothersome at all.
  5. I remember the addiction to tobacco was much harder to overcome than any other. The elders quorum pres. was inspired to ask if I wanted a priesthood blessing to help me. Of course I said yes and not long after the blessing I was blessed with no craving or desire to smoke for 3 days. The cravings came back but I was strong enough to resist after those 3 days.
  6. Without having read these talks, I can't comment.
  7. The head cannot stand without the foot..:)
  8. That sounds better. I'm assuming you are probably aware of the different meanings of the word church as well.
  9. Is this from a talk explaining that Adam has progressed to, or something else? If you do a scripture search, you will find info that the restored church will survive and not be led astray.
  10. I remember something like grease on a bun or bread.
  11. peeps who post the exact same answer directly under...
  12. When the people asked Alma to be thier king, he refused giving the reason that one person should not look upon another as being greater. The church teaches this concept as well. I think it was Pres. Kimball who said that his most important responsibilty was that of being a hometeacher.
  13. You did hear how Joseph took on that town strongman with one arm didn't you.:)
  14. Could possibly have something to do with the natural world still having its effect on us all.
  15. I've wondered if those who end up in the celestial kingdom would, if they were so inclined, visit with those in lower degrees. I think the only knowledge we have on this is that we are told Jesus will be visiting with those in the terrestrial kingdom.
  16. There's nothing to say that Moroni could not have traveled to where the plates were hid, before his death.
  17. It would be more accurate if you said most people crumble when givin much power. You should also realise you cannot judge what a person will do in any givin situation.
  18. Very interesting Mikbone!
  19. Lights are coming on if that is true!
  20. I have been taught the same concept numerous times in the church, backed up by scripture.
  21. Never heard it put like this before.
  22. Before I became a member at the age of 23 my favourite thing to do had to do with porn. As thier are no withdrawl symptoms like you would get from tobacco or drugs, I would not call it an addiction. It takes all of your effort to get over this nasty habit, but after all you can do, God will bless you to be rid of it. You will find as time goes by the memories and feelings fade into nothingness.
  23. Danial 2:44 The church will not be destroyed.
  24. I guess you would have to be touched by the Spirit to a great degree such as they were because I don't see the answer there.
