    Why does God abort so many fetuses?

    To the OP's question: I don't necessarily believe that God causes a fetus to abort (there is a caveat which I'll get to). I don't believe that God controls any aspect of our lives. I believe that God gives us agency to choose. Sometimes our choices are what cause the fetus to abort. Sometimes...

    God's Love

    To feel God's love, one must first have a basic understanding of how God operates, and how He communicates with us. But before even that, you must truly and actively desire what you seek and believe that you will receive it. If you only mildly want it and/or don't really believe that God is real...

    When you pray...how do you talk to Jesus?

    Thanks, Dunemeister. I've never had the trinitarian concept explained so clearly and concisely. My understanding was that the trinitarian concept was the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost all as one being, without body, parts or passions. That's as explained to me by a christian friend some...

    Rapture Letter (Automatic Email Sent Out to Specified Recipients After the First Resurrection)

    :D That's a good one. I guess I should have used the sarcastic smiley :sarcastic at the end of my previous post.

    Is justice destroying sin or punishing it?

    In my belief system, Adam and Eve's actions were not sinful. They partook of the forbidden fruit, which was contrary to the commandments of God. It wasn't a sin to do so, it was transgression of the law. Laws are set to govern, to keep things in order. Without order, you have chaos -- and...

    LDS Atonement

    Clear, judging by the way your posts have caused my soul to be touched by the Spirit of Truth, I can say with a voice of gladness that you are understanding these truths correctly. It fills my soul with indescribable joy to see the light of truth dawning in the eyes of another human being. I...

    LDS: Opinions on bishops advice

    I wholeheartedly agree with Arkholt. Bishops are human beings, who have been given keys that afford them the opportunity to council with wisdom. Bishops, like all of us, give council based on their life's experiences. Sometimes, that's all we get from them. Other times, we get that, mixed...

    Barack Hussein Obama is the Final Antichrist

    Then explain to us, please, why your signature contains a link to a patently NON-LDS doctrinal site (st. Birgitta???). Why is it that this thread began with you spouting the revelations of some dreamer named "Christiana"(?) whose "revelations" you revere over the doctrines of the LDS church...

    Rapture Letter (Automatic Email Sent Out to Specified Recipients After the First Resurrection)

    You quote Mormon doctrine right and left, yet, as much as you THINK you do, you don't understand it or live by it. Has your prophetess told you when your "rapture" is going to happen? I was wondering if you could ask her if I can come with y'all. :confused:

    When you pray...how do you talk to Jesus?

    You're on the right track, Space Janitor. Keep praying! I believe God hears and answers everyone's sincere prayers -- even when you're directing them to His son. ;) I realize it goes against all you've been taught, but you really should examine the bible more closely with an open mind and...

    Barack Hussein Obama is the Final Antichrist

    Wait, I was wrong. Baptist. And here's the key distinguishing mark, folks: Latter Day Saints would never shout the name of the Savior. There's no need -- he knows we're calling his name before we even speak. We speak his name with the utmost reverence. Never will you see a practicing...

    Barack Hussein Obama is the Final Antichrist

    Almost right. Neither one CREATED the universe... They only took matter unorganized and organized it. Matter exists from all eternity to all eternity. It can neither be created nor destroyed. It can, however, be organized and reorganized, once we understand and gain control over the forces...

    Barack Hussein Obama is the Final Antichrist

    For some odd reason, I can't picture the NWO using .999 fine silver as a worldwide currency. I thought the whole mission of the NWO was to abolish tangible money and force the world into using the completely controllable, traceable, electronic version. What good is the whole "Mark of the...

    Barack Hussein Obama is the Final Antichrist

    FWIW, I don't like Obama any more than you do.

    Barack Hussein Obama is the Final Antichrist

    If I'm a "classic LDS", what are you? It is an insult for someone so blatantly against the belief system you supposedly espouse to claim membership in the LDS church. Please stop associating yourself with the LDS church. It's frightening to me to think that people like you are within the...

    Barack Hussein Obama is the Final Antichrist

    FFH, you scare me. What frightens me about you is that you claim to be a Latter Day Saint, and yet you wholeheartedly believe that some obscure woman from South Africa is receiving revelation for the world at large from Jesus Christ. In so doing, you've formally announced your apostasy...

    When you pray...how do you talk to Jesus?

    Prayer is a uniquely individual thing. How you do it is between you and He with Whom you are speaking. Notice I didn't say, "to whom", but rather "with whom", implying that prayer should be a two way conversation. I don't believe there is a set way that one must pray. We can pray standing...
