I have a very nice white shirt, but it got a small stain does not come out. Simple, use liquid White Out and brush on the stain, and it covers the stain. The White Out does not show if you rub it a little after it is dry, and is virtually invisible after washing the shirt.

Revised CRITIC God is spirit RESPONSE The Bible also says that Jesus is a door, a vine, a path, water spring, a loaf of bread, He is truth, and, yes, He is spirit. Christ, in His physical body, told the disciples, "If you have seen me, you have seen the Father." He said nothing about a "one substance entity".

CRITIC I’m perfectly comfortable with gods who stay in the spiritual realm and not part of the physical realm. RESPONSE Do you feel comfortable with the realm of entangled particles, “spooky interaction at a distance”, or quantum mechanics. It has rules and laws which are outside our experience of our physical realm. God did not create the natural laws, but uses them to do His work. He is bound by those laws. Now, some of those laws are presently unknown to the scientists,similar to the mechanics of how those spooky particles are able to interact at intergalactic distances in real time. The spiritual realm is part of our physical world, just as the realm of quantum physics. In addition to physical laws, it has other laws which are called “faith”, and “priesthood authority”. Scientists are unable directly able to detect the action of these laws at the present time. (Hint” see also dark matter and dark energy)

CRITIC God ordered genocide. RESPONSE And have you given any thought why? Considering that He knows and sees things that you do not, is it possible that He knows something that you don't.Perhaps there is a piece of the puzzle that eludes but you don't bother to try to find it, because "God ordered genocide" is all that you care to know.Hint: sometimes it is necessary to amputate a leg to save a person's life. "Oh, dear, he will be a cripple for the rest of his life. moan....groan... What a terrible thing.""Yeah, but at least he is still alive." Give it some thought and perhaps you will figure it out.

I really need to read the scriptures daily, but you know how that is. But my son discovered a way to guarantee that I will do it EVERY DAY. Each time I miss a day, I give a contribution to a nonprofit organization. Now, if this were the Boy Scouts, no bid deal, BUT I have chosen Planned Parenthood to make my contribution! Wow!! Five bucks for each time I miss. Here is their phone number 800-798-7092 Anyway, my wife monitors my compliance so that I don't cheat. I started a week ago, and so far, so good. Perhaps I should put their number on speed dial.

CRITIC Mormons have secrets RESPONSE In Acts 1:3 we read that, after the resurrection, Christ taught the disciples for forty days, teaching them the things “pertaining to the kingdom of God”. But we do not have a record of what He said. Forty days! Did He repeat the Sermon on the Mount 10,000 times? Earlier, He told the disciples not to cast their pearls before swine (the unbelievers). Certain doctrines are very briefly mentioned in the Bible — baptism for the dead (Paul), three kingdoms of glory (Paul), preaching the gospel to the dead (Peter), etc. There are those who call these “secrets”, but Christ said, “it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.” They are indeed sacred, and Christ has commanded us to keep them from the world.

Updated version of previous post CRITIC Why can you believe in Mormonism when there no archaeological evidence for the Book of Mormon, etc RESPONSE The answer is found in the Bible. Christ said to Peter Matt 16 [15] He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? [16] And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. [17] And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven. Christ did NOT say, “Blessed art thou because you have studied archaeology, you have debated with the scribes and Pharasees about the scriptures, and have come to the logical conclusion that I am the Christ.” Like Peter, God has promised to give us a personal witness of the truth of the Book of Mormon, and that Joseph Smith was a prophet. What greater witness can there be? Blessed are those who have sought the Lord in prayerful study and meditation.

CRITIC How do Christians view Mormons. Is it just another sect -- false prophets, etc RESPONSE Now, in the Bible Paul teaches us Eph 4 [11] And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; [12] For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: [13] **Till we all come in the unity of the faith** and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ: [14] That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; The historic Christian church has replaced the apostles and prophets with theologians and philosophers -- the modern day Pharasees. They disagree among themselves even on basic salvation doctrines, such as the necessity for baptism, faith vs works, etc. Clearly we do not have that unity of faith, and we see Christians carried away with every wind of doctrine. “One Lord, one faith, one baptism” simply does not exist in today’s world. The Pharasees have taken over the churches. Christ called a prophet in our day to restore the Gospel which had been lost, and restored His church with living apostles and prophets, as promised by Paul.

CRITIC Mormons believe in a text callled "The Book of Mormon" which no other sects of Christianity support. It is considered a heretical book, added centuries after the Biblical canon was formalised. RESPONSE FACT Check: The New Testament “was added centuries after the Hebrew (Old Testament) canon was formalised.” We accept all of the Word of God, including the Bible and modern revelation. There are those who claim that His Word is like a buffet, you only have to partake of those things that you want, and ignore the rest.

If you play the piano, there are many tutorials on individual songs.

Block Site is an extension where you can block individual sites but also block specific words in a search (such as the search in youtube). It is very troubling the kind of videos that are now on youtube.

CRITIC Asking questions about the Fall of Adam -- "Ye shall be as gods", etc RESPONSE 1. See Genesis 3:22 2. You are asking a questions that require an understanding of the Atonement of Christ, and the pivotal role that the Fall of Adam plays in the Plan of Salvation. That particular topic goes beyond the scope of this forum. I suggest that you speak with the missionaries who would be able to discuss this with you. I suggest that you first be willing temporarily to put aside everything that you have been taught about the Fall of Adam and keep an open mind.Anyway, you might try to gain some understanding by reading 2 Nephi chapters two and nine in the Book of Mormon, but I strongly suggest that a discussion with the missionaries would be very helpful.

CRITIC Why do you claim to be Christians RESPONSE Christ has restored the gospel and His church here on the earth, and is the head of the church. The Book of Mormon is another testament of Jesus Christ. Joseph Smith and Sidney Rigdon saw a vision of Christ and testified 22 And now, after the many testimonies which have been given of him, this is the testimony, last of all, which we give of him: That he lives! 23 For we saw him, even on the right hand of God; and we heard the voice bearing record that he is the Only Begotten of the Father— 24 That by him, and through him, and of him, the worlds are and were created, and the inhabitants thereof are begotten sons and daughters unto God.

Do you read about Golf in magazines and books? Talk about it at work. Spend Sundays playing gold (after sacrament meeting, of course. Your vacations are to golf tournaments -- your favorite vacation spot is Augusta, GA. Do you always capitalize the word Golf?

1. Who is pilling across our border -- the Chinese? These are the descendants of the Lamanites. 2. Among several reasons, why are they coming here? Pres. Fox himself said that it was the tremendous demand for drugs. In addition to the regular riff raff, criminal element, the drug gangs are arriving here and staking our their territory. Just as the prophecy stated, the sign of its fullfullment is 1. influx of violent Lamanites -- drug gangs, 2. the unrighteousness of the Gentiles -- tremendous demand for drugs, which then leads to very bad things. Remember, you hear it here first.

I found that in popular music, you can learn to play with the melody, or do the accompaniment -- chords in both hands. Right now, I working on the latter. Your right and left hand play independent rhythms, so it makes it very interesting to play with the hands independently.

The Book of Mormon has an interesting prophecy. 3 Nephi 20 [15] And I say unto you, that if the Gentiles do not repent after the blessing which they shall receive, after they have scattered my people -- [16] Then shall ye, who are a remnant of the house of Jacob, go forth among them; and ye shall be in the midst of them who shall be many; and ye shall be among them as a lion among the beasts of the forest, and as a young lion among the flocks of sheep, who, if he goeth through both treadeth down and teareth in pieces, and none can deliver. 3 Nephi 21 [11] Therefore it shall come to pass that whosoever will not believe in my words, who am Jesus Christ, which the Father shall cause him to bring forth unto the Gentiles, and shall give unto him power that he shall bring them forth unto the Gentiles, (it shall be done even as Moses said) they shall be cut off from among my people who are of the covenant. [12] And my people who are a remnant of Jacob shall be among the Gentiles, yea, in the midst of them as a lion among the beasts of the forest, as a young lion among the flocks of sheep, who, if he go through both treadeth down and teareth in pieces, and none can deliver. Is it really necessary to explain how that prophecy is now in the early stages of fulfillment?

REVISED CRITIC The Bible teaches blah blah blah RESPONSE Let's assume that the Bible is inerrant. But that still leaves a problem.Where do you find an inerrant INTERPRETATION of the Bible? Scholars disagree among themselves even on basic salvation doctrines -- e.g. is baptism a requirement for salvation, works vs faith, "once saved always saved", free will, etc They all have studied the Bible intensively, got their PhD from the universities and cannot agree among themselves on what the Bible teaches.I do not say that the scriptures are false, but you cannot give me the inerrant interpretation of those scriptures.The historic Christian church replaced the apostles and prophets with theologians and philosophers.But the Lord called a prophet in these last days day to restore the Gospel and the church lead by apostles and prophets (see Eph 4:11-14). I invite you to visit the local church and see for yourself.

Sigh. Lloyds is in the insurance business.. An insurance company is in the business of "placing a bet" that your home will not burn down when they issue homeowner insurance. It does a risk analysis, research into probabilities, in order to price premiums. They are doing a business analysis of risk, not tinfoil hat conspiracy theories. This is a waste of time. Best of luck to you.

I see it slightly differently. Lloyds is placing bets on whether there will be a " an outbreak of violence can escalate to a widespread PV pandemic". Apparently there is a market in anticipation of such an event. You don't bet on a horse that is not on the track, so there are those who feel this is a credible probability for such an event, and are willing to place bets (not just talk, but actual money). Lloyds is accessing the premium for such a risk. Bottom line -- there are those who are willing to place a bet on such an event. We are not talking about nickle and dime bets in a betting parlour, but major players, customers of Lloyds, probably multinational corporations. Certainly not those who wear tinfoil hats. It's well beyond that.

For one semester I was a music major, and learned the basics of playing the piano. Now that I am retired I have a self study program in learning the piano. I have been amazed at the many resources for self-teaching and hope very soon to be able to play my first hymn. I discovered there are several "flavors" of learning the piano -- there is, of course, the classics, but I find it interesting to learn how to play popular and jazz. I found an electronic keyboard which has 88 keys, weighted keys, and the sound sampled from a grand piano. The Yamaha P-115 was around $500. Amazing! It is portable so I will be able to take it to nursing homes to play in public ==>> low stress place to play, since they won't notice the mistakes. Also on a family get- together. Perhaps in time to be able to play at church in priesthood meetings. I have been amazed at the resources available to those who are self-taught -- various tutorial, music courses (udemy.com), youtube. You can even take lessons on skype.

I think the bathroom policy will be seen as the tipping point, especially If the next election results in the perception that we can expect an expansion of those policies. If the government forces a mandate that our children must share the restroom and showers with those off the opposite sex, and open borders which results in allowing the party in power to guarantee that they stay in power, the consequences will be interesting. As the scriptures say, safety will only be found in Zion.

So, are you saying that infowars falsified the story? There is no report, or Lloyds of London is a fake organization? OK, then are you trying to say that Lloyds of London is tinfoil hat organization? Just a bunch of crazed loons. I have absolutely no idea of your point -- it seems that you are promulgating a conspiracy theory when you bring this highly reputable firm into your tinfoil hat narrative.

Top insurer Lloyds warns that a “pandemic” of global civil unrest could go viral, threatening international stability. Lloyds commissioned leading global risk management consultancy the Risk Advisory Group to produce a report analyzing what factors could prompt the spread of civil unrest around the world. The report found that, “Instances of political violence contagion are becoming more frequent and the contagion effect ever more rapid and powerful,” with head of exposure management and reinsurance, Trevor Maynard, warning that global outbreaks of violence are increasingly likely to develop into “pandemics” of civil unrest. This transformation will lead to “widespread disruption yet prove extremely difficult to anticipate,” and threaten “international stability,” according to the report. http://www.infowars.com/top-insurer-warns-global-civil-unrest-could-go-viral/

My wife and I were talking about how society has changed over the years, and what the future holds. I told her, The time is coming when people will call what we have now as "the good old days". For myself, as I read the prophecies of the future, it is like a story book, difficult to imagine. But I recently saw this story of the chaos in Venezuela today. I believe this is what the future holds for us. http://www.infowars.com/scenes-from-the-venezuela-apocalypse-countless-wounded-after-5000-loot-supermarket-looking-for-food/ I have learned something from this.
