    Emmanuel Goldstein got a reaction from Vort in When did temple marriage begin?   
    The Hebrews did not have the temple covenants. They lost out on that when Moses smashed the tablets after he came down from Mount Horeb. We do know that the eternal marriage covenants were in effect at the time of Abraham, but not on the scale they are today. Also, we do not know enough about the civilizations before the flood, but Adam and Ever were definitely sealed together in Eden.

    Very good reminder that we should all take better care of our bodies. Thank you for sharing this, it answered a prayer for me. On the other side of this, I am very glad you are feeling better and I pray for your speedy recovery.

    um, yeah. The saddest part is how so many members in Utah are just ignoring the counsel of the Prophets. As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord by listening to them.

    She has lost her way and she reminds me of this scripture.
    Proverbs 16
    18 Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.
    19 Better it is to be of an humble spirit with the lowly, than to divide the spoil with the proud.

    Emmanuel Goldstein got a reaction from Serviteur du seigneur in How can i overcome rejection ?   
    I was in love with a red head at college before my mission. We dated for months and I thought she was the one. When I told her I had gotten my mission call she told me she didn’t want to wait for a missionary, and she said she had a boyfriend back home and was planning to return home after the semester. My heart was broken and I angrily told her it was over then. Never talked to her again and after my mission I found a better woman and she and I have been happily married for 24 years.
    Sometimes things seem lost until you follow what God wants for you. Move on and serve your mission.

    The letter seems like a desperate attempt to avoid losing the case. I would suggest not watching a movie, tv show or music that is offensive.

    Emmanuel Goldstein got a reaction from clbent04 in Standing Up to Those Who Take the Lord's Name in Vain   
    I remember I had a really bad day once and a guy on the bus was talking about something very sexually inappropriate and I got angry at him and told him to stop. He started yelling at me and i ended up using the Lord's name in vain under my breath when I told him to shut up. He then got even angrier and started acting like he was going to attack me because, "How dare you use the Lord's name in vain!!!" I eventually reached my stop and got off while telling him to stop being a hypocrite. Here he was speaking disgusting things, but when I got mad and swore, under my breath, he went off on me? No, if someone uses a curse we should try to be patient, unless they are actually threatening violence. 
    That is my two cents.

    Emmanuel Goldstein got a reaction from scottyg in "A Review of the Annotated Edition of the Book of Mormon"   
    Last night we were reading Alma 2 as a family and my son asked if we know where the River of Sidon was.
    After a second I said, "No, we don't know. There are some that believe it is the Mississippi or the St. Lawrence river. Some believe it is in Central or South America, some believe it is in Baja California and I think it could be out west somewhere."
    I then told him that it does not matter where it was, what matters is that it was in the Americas and that the events of the Book of Mormon tell of events that really happened. I know some BYU professors and others think it is some allegorical story, but I know that the Spirit has testified to me that it is true. 
    All of these arguments about Where and How do nothing to strengthen testimonies of the restored gospel and in fact damage testimonies. So, please tread lightly.

    Is this renovation project partly to prepare the Houses of the Lord for His return in the next few decades?
    I have been thinking that the Lord will eventually return and the world seems to just be spiraling into the ground at an accelerated rate.
