New research project for you. Go to Google.com, and search for "Bible version comparison chart". You would be surprised at what a person can find if they only look.

Sorry, I don't see how this verse says I have to believe the Bible is without flaw or I'll go to hell. Maybe you can point it out?

Well, your profile says you are only 25. You've got a lot of years to study and learn things. Assuming that you know it all now is only going to set you up for disaster down the road. So, your Bible doesn't say what version it is? Interesting. And I hate to tell you this but your insistence on literalistic belief in everything written in the Bible in illogical.

"Main" and "most widely accepted" versions according to whom? Catholics? Baptists? Evangelicals? LDS? What version is it? It should say what it is either on the spine or in the first few pages before Genesis. How do you know it is the most correct?

Do you have a link to that article?

So, which version is true? If the Bible is completely, 100% accurate, then why are there so many versions and translations of it? Did God tell the different Translators to write different things?

I don't know if you're not studying hard enough or not paying attention, but you would be wrong on both of those conclusions. Here's some questions for you to research: Who wrote the Bible? Who decided which texts to include and which to exclude? Why were they included or excluded and not others? Is it possible that some translations or passages may not be accurate representations of the originals or the original meanings?

The Church does not run like a business. I agree with LM's response. If you want things to get done, you need to set low standards for getting them accomplished until you are pretty sure the person is able to deliver reliably. Being mad at the person does nothing but raise your blood pressure and your risks of heart attack. If a person accepts an assignment that you are relying on getting done, go ahead and ask them regularly (in a nice way) how things are going with it, and ask if there is anything you can do to help them get it done. The hardest thing is to ask without being pushy. Pushy people in the church generally find it difficult to get anything done or end up doing everything because they set unrealistic expectations on others.

Since the question has been answered, I'm closing this.

Welcome to the site.

Yes, it's more correctly called deathbed confession, not deathbed repentance.

So, where are you cutting and pasting from?

I rarely raise my hand before talking in Priesthood Meeting. Does that make me an interrupter?

What

Not too many here that wishy-washy.\\\\\\\

Hey, I watched Demons and Angels, I saw all the stuff they limit access to. That movie was real wasn't it?

I picture Mount Ararat as this big hill with lots of old discarded wood strewn all over it. Who knows what is what, especially when the Turks closes it to exploration whenever they feel like it.

Or maybe he just digs slashies. \\\\

But apparently quite easily offended over trivial things.

How about researching the subject to find out if it's true?

Why do you care about what others think about your situation so much? If any of them knew your wife they probably suspected that she had issues anyway, unless she was an expert at hiding them. My experience with bipolars and depressed people is that their condition is usually not hidden from outsiders, those who pay attention can spot the signs. As to your other question, you can't force someone to stay married or committed to you or the relationship. If they want out, they will opt out. All you can do is be the best kind of spouse you can be. If they decide to leave, then that's their decision, as painful as it is.

Probably because you insist on using all those slashies. \\\\\

Temple covenants are eternal. They extend into the life after this one.

My most uptight missionary companion was from Oregon.

I insist on Idaho potatoes. Preferably from the mid-to upper-Snake River Valley.
