  1. In this case, the woman should be interviewed by the Bishop or Stake President. After prayerful consideration, he may wish to question your husband on the matter. If the husband denies everything and states that he was stalked etc. and they have prayed and believe him, then that is the end of it. If they do not believe him, then they may hold a court. If the affair really did happen, you have not lost your eternal marriage. There is still forgiveness. I know of members who have had similar things happen and have fully repented and now hold callings. I also know of a women who was "someone" went to the Bishop as accused her of infidelity. The Bishop interviewed her and found it to be groundless. She was innocent. If perchance the man in question has done this...but gets away with it, well the Lord does know...and like it was written he will "get his on the other side." As far as your sealings go, they are still valid and the wife/you will still be given all blessings due her/you. From what I have been taught, when one person makes it to the Celestial Kingdom and the other partner does not, the worthy person will be given to another. I have heard some complain about this because they "may not like the person to whom they are given." I would think they would still have a choice to say no, but what better match maker is there than a loving Heavenly Father, who knows us better than anyone? As far as the marriage goes, there always has to be trust...and of course you deserve to know the truth. But these things are personal between husband and wife. In some case I have known, the husband was guilty, they worked it out and are still together. In other cases, they were not able to resolve the issue and ended the marriage. AGain, it is a personal thing that should involve much prayer and fasting, as well as counseling with the Bishop. If it were me, I would ask for a blessing, because of the stress.
  2. One thing about even the "natural" artificial sweeteners~they are so close to the real thing in make up that they spike my blood sugars on an artificial high~Then, if I take the prescribed insulin needed to bring my sugars down, I drop like a rock into an insulin reaction. They really play havoc on me. My son in law is glucose intolerant and we learned from him that artificial sweeteners have this reaction in the body. He drinks water and herbal teas. As for myself, I thought I was eating healthy, but then I took a second look. I begin to make sure the proteins that I ate were low fat, switched to a diet that was higher in fiber, with lots of whole grains, fruits and vegetable. I cut out all soda...even diet soda. These simple switches helped me to lose 75 pounds. (and have 15 to go) The WoW speaks of running and not being weary. That to me means that we need to get in activity in our lives, so I started exercising. Although I also have hormone imbalance, thyroid problems... I have been able to lose weight. It has been very very slow at times, even with exercise, but it can be done. The key is to make life style changes and not look for quick fixes. I have enjoyed all of the comments.
  3. When my daughter's group did this, it was 99% non LDS. They studied the new testament, mainly the teachings of Jesus, such as the Beatitudes, the Sermon on the Mount. They also studied the different parables. They all shared their ideas of what the scripture meant and were interested in the LDS point of view as well as those from other Christian faiths. While most of the teens had the KJV of the Bible, some did have other translations and reading those "alternate" translations was at times helpful to some of the Teens. The main thing was to keep an open mind and not criticize anyone's point of view. One of the things that they did was to discuss ways in which to apply those teachings to their life's.

    2 Nephi 24:13-14

    I have always found it interesting that Lucifer wanted to destroy the agency of men, yet at the same time, he "Chose" not to follow Heavenly Father's plan.
  5. Good Day. I am new to the site and look forward to meeting new people and learning/studying. I am a mother of four, grandmother of five. I have been LDS for almost 30 years. My husband and I joined as a young married couple and raised our family in the church. There are no other members in our families.
