  5. Mistake To Resign?

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    It is because it is one of those "life" churches.

    You have to live it to be in it, and getting out is harder because of it.

    I did go a long time without talking to any of you.

    That was kind of like my recovery time to find myself.

    Myself found, I am here still learning in support of my daddy.

  9. More Than One God?

    <div class='quotemain'>I was always told that he was out perfect bigger brother. That he was just like us in a way... I was not taught that he was God, but that he spoke for God in the beginning of the bible.

    How much time would you say you have given to the study of this issue? Have you consulted the scriptures? The Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith? Conference talks? As I said, the statement that Jesus is God is on the first page of the Book of Mormon. It isn't like a person needs to do some especially in depth study to see that.

    Now I do not pretend to know how this concept could have escaped you. I cannot imagine your personal devotion to a study of the scriptures was anything less than total. Perhaps in your eagerness to measure every word, you overlooked this principle. Perhaps you knew a primary friend that knew they could ignore every word of class and answer every question with a single word: 'Jesus'. There is some truth to that. There is a reason for that.

    Take a look at Mosiah 3. Verse 5 says: 'the Lord Omnipotent who reigneth, who was, and is from all eternity to all eternity, shall come down from heaven among the children of men, and shall dwell in a tabernacle of clay, and shall go forth amongst men, working mighty miracles, such as healing the sick, raising the dead, causing the lame to walk, the blind to receive their sight, and the deaf to hear, and curing all manner of diseases.'

    Verse 8 says: 'he shall be called Jesus Christ, the Son of God, the Father of heaven and earth, the Creator of all things from the beginning; and his mother shall be called Mary.'

    Verse 20-21 says: 'the time shall come when the knowledge of a Savior shall spread throughout every nation, kindred, tongue, and people. And behold, when that time cometh, none shall be found blameless before God, except it be little children, only through repentance and faith on the name of the Lord God Omnipotent.'

    Mosiah 5:15 calls the Saviour 'Christ, the Lord God Omnipotent'

    What did Jesus say to the Nephites? 'Arise and come forth unto me, that ye may thrust your hands into my side, and also that ye may feel the prints of the nails in my hands and in my feet, that ye may know that I am the God of Israel, and the God of the whole earth, and have been slain for the sins of the world.' (3 Nephi 11:14)

    Or, check out Hymn 134 in the LDS Hymnal, I Believe in Christ. Verse 3 says: 'I believe in Christ- my Lord, my God!'

    It is sad but true that there are many who live within the Church for decades and go through the motions without understanding some of the most basic and necessary principles of Mormonism. The notion that Jesus is the Christ, the Eternal God is THE founding principle of Mormonism.

    -a-train

    But then there is two Gods.

    The Son of God and God the Father.

    It isn't "basic principles" I am having problems with.

    It is remembering how to count I think.

    1...2...?

    Desire,

    Just to set the record straight traditional Christians also believe that Jesus is our perfect brother. To quote a popular chorus....

    "Your my friend and you are my brother, even though you are a king"

    That is what makes most sense to me.

    None of that trinity triangle!!!

    I don't see how I can still be considered a member.

    If that is the case, I am Catholic as well.

    I don't think I am a mormon just because they have my name on a piece of paper.

    They don't want to let it go, that is their problem, because the fact remains that I have nothing to do with them.

    I believe what I say I believe, not what someone else tells me I believe.

    It would cause an upheaval in my family to be officially removed.

    No. I have not been a member for a year.

    Sex talk was a year in a half ago.

    Don't worry, I will explain what that means.

    It means that six months BEFORE I left was the sex talk.

    Six months later, I left.

    I left a year ago.

    The Sex talk was a year and a half ago.
