    4th Abrahamic Religion?

    I'm inclined to agree with this statement. :) According to modern Christianity, a Christian is not only a follower of Christ, but someone who has a personal relationship with Christ. As far as I know, the LDS Church has this: Mormon.org - Exhibit

    Mormon Fundamentalism: Blacks & the Priesthood

    It would have been better if that question was rhetorical as madhatter had suggested. No WAY am I going to mention my home, my friends, or my LDS mentors on the INTERNET. I don't know who reads this, and I don't, nor have I ever trusted YOU. THERE IS NO POSSIBLE WAY THAT I WILL REVEAL MY CITY...

    Mormon Fundamentalism: Blacks & the Priesthood

    It's personal belief. I never said it was official doctrine. On the contrary, if you look at my statement, I said it was UNOFFICIAL doctrine. Wow! That's sad that he was excommunicated over a personal belief. HAHAHA! This is the Internet. I don't know who you are, and you don't know who I...

    Mormon Fundamentalism: Blacks & the Priesthood

    I wish you would've said something to me about it. I just changed it. I never meant to barge in here trying to offend someone. That's just another name for Mormon Fundamentalism. And where have I said that I practiced polygamy? Just for the record, I am a member of the LDS Church, but I...

    I got it. Thanks for the answer. ;)

    Mormon Fundamentalism: Blacks & the Priesthood

    Wrong. I created it at the urging of madhatter85 to discuss not debate. Apparently it turned into that, though. I'll just be more careful in the future about what I respond to and what I don't. :cover: Lesson learned.

    Mormon Fundamentalism: Blacks & the Priesthood

    Let me just state that I feel like I'm sorta being attacked here. I'm not a genius. If I have given that impression, my apologies. When it comes to Mormon Fundamentalist doctrine, I don't know everything. If a Mormon Fundamentalist is embarrassing to the LDS community here (which I sincerely...

    Mormon Fundamentalism: Blacks & the Priesthood

    Here's the question that I'm trying to answer. If it's the wrong one, correct me. These entries have been spread out over a time period of several days so I may have mixed things up. -------------------------------------------------- Old Testament - No blacks could hold the priesthood. It was...

    Mormon Fundamentalism: Blacks & the Priesthood

    Okay. I thought about it for a while. This is not doctrine as far as I know. This is my personal hypothesis. Just want to clear that up. I may very well be wrong on this. Old Testament - No blacks could hold the priesthood. It was only the descendants of Levi. New Testament - Blacks were...

    My point exactly. ;)

    Mormon Fundamentalism: Blacks & the Priesthood

    I think you read too much into my statements. I was agreeing with you.

    Mormon Fundamentalism: Blacks & the Priesthood

    I do not disagree with that statement. It was your reference for blacks and the priesthood in the restoration that I disagreed. Apparently, they could hold the priesthood back during the ministry of Jesus.

    Mormon Fundamentalism: Blacks & the Priesthood

    Maybe this is an important time to distinguish between an apostle and a prophet. I believe the prophet to be binding. An apostle writes his own opinion which may or may not be correct. This is an interesting video if you wonder about polygamy. YouTube - Polygamy-A Glass House

    That's one place to start. :rolleyes:

    Mormon Fundamentalism: Blacks & the Priesthood

    Scripture, to my understanding, is something that is canonized by a group of people that generally believe something is inspired of God. A "thus saith the Lord" statement would be uncanonized if it weren't voted to be official scripture by the congregation, but I believe, is just as binding as...
