tfrey1225 Posted December 14, 2009 Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 Hello all. I wasn't sure where to put this thread, so I settled on this forum. If it's not the correct place a mod can move it.I came here inquiring about the LDS Church a few weeks back. I have been meeting with missionaries the past few weeks, and studying the Book of Mormon. Today I was baptized at the local LDS church. I feel great. I will be confirmed next week and I can't wait. That's why I say I feel new, this is my introduction as a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.A few weeks ago I was alone, lost, bitter and drifting. I was slowing spiraling into lust based sins and it was consuming me. Now I am ready to start my new life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maya Posted December 16, 2009 Report Share Posted December 16, 2009 Welcome! Congrtulations too.. remember life IS a fight against the dark side... not only of world but yourself. Keep fighting a good weapon is the BoM! So officially: Welcome to LDS.net. You will find here an ecclectic mix of LDS and some non-members. While the site is dedicated to the Gospel, and to promoting the Church to a world that often does not understand us, we also make room for conversations about current events, and about social and cultural practices within the Church. If your main desire is to learn about the Church, consider starting with the "Learn About Mormonism" forums. For more advanced teachings, that will often include a variety of perspectives, some non-LDS, consider the Gospel section of forums. While you are welcome to all main sections, be aware this site makes room for a variety of opinions and personalities. Some posters can be passionate about their views, and occasionally more so about them than about the souls of visitors. If you find something particularly offensive, feel free to make a report by clicking the appropriate tab. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I look at life like a swinging pendulum. The middle is where we should be and either end is considered sin markers, from the lesser sin from the middle to the grosser sins at each end. Either way, we need to be mindful daily on where we are at and do a quick analysis our standing. Anyhow, welcome to the forum and hope you find comfort with the Saints who share the common goal is “striving” for perfection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
