    Ain Soph Aur

    Whoever thought this did not believe that Jesus Christ actually lived and spoke these words. I think he did actually say those words and if it forms a Hebraic pattern do you think it might have anything to do with Jesus being Jewish? Simplistic, I know, but when you work from the...

    And God said, Let us make man in our image

    God needs fellowship. They used to say "no man is an island". We are in God's image. He is not an island and it is love, attachment to others, that moves God (and us). And, love does not coerce. Our attachments, for good or evil are all a matter of choice. WE can choose to know...

    The Book of Mormon

    You are quite happy with your observation point so why should I get you to consider what you do not want to consider? You are a free agent. The information I offer is for your growth. I don't want to argue. And you are not sharing. In kindergarten you'd have to go to the corner...

    The Book of Mormon

    By the things you say it appears to me that you are a realist. You do not believe in God or the transcendent. Maybe, I am wrong in this, but that is what I induce from the tone of your observations and conclusions. Fred Alan Wolf, a well known writer on the subject of the relationship of...

    The Book of Mormon

    Linwood, do your home work. Your time lines are off. When you speak about something you've not studied it shows. Did you ever think about the context of those New testament scriptures found in the Book of MOrmon? Jesus said he was teaching them the same thing he taught in Jerusalem. So...

    Hoping for some thoughts from mormons

    Nothing works if you don't have revelation. You started this thread of hoping for some thoughts from Mormons, well now that you have more thoughts than you can handle. I'll just step out of the picture until you settle down and start talking like a follower of Christ. BenJosh

    Hoping for some thoughts from mormons

    You've come a long way in a short time. And, I thought we were having a discussion. But, I can see that you have become both a lwayer and a judge. So, I will let you have your court and not bother you. BenJosh

    where do i belong

    Wombat, welcome. seems like a lot of folks have advice and welcomes. Man I am just trying to remember what its like to be fourteen. Stay as far away from that Satanist thing as you can. I really tracked with you on the yin/yang thing you said. With the yin/yang...

    Who Is The True Church Of Jesus Christ?

    That is one of the things I appreciate about the Quaker tradition. Those insights into the light of Christ. I recall the account of a Quaker who visited one of the tribes in this nation's early history (late 1600's). One of the Native Americans said of his ministry, "We, like to sit near...

    Hoping for some thoughts from mormons

    Mike, I do not think you realize what you are saying about yourself in this post. And, I do not mean this as a put down. I mean it as an uplift. Your salvation does depend on your goodness. IN the Bible we read, 1 Peter 1:15 15. But as he...

    Is there any explanation for Gods change in character between OT, NT & Now?

    God gives Moses 10 commandments then Jesus kicked the law up a notch. The ten say do not commit adultery, Jesus says if you lust you commit adultery. God hasn't changed. The question is if we understand HIs mercy/judgment paradox. You are saying God is all mercy. Imagine if our civil...

    Hoping for some thoughts from mormons

    Jonny you assume that Joseph Smith had more wives than Emma, when the only history that states that is the one written in Utah. Unless your ancestor was Emma Smith she was not married to Joseph. I am including a link to a page that clearly shows where Joseph stood on the issue of polygamy...

    Hoping for some thoughts from mormons

    I think what you are missing in my reply is that truth must be a very relative thing to you. What is more important. . . . alleged "money digging" or burning peoples homes down and taking their land away while ridiculing them because they might make the slaves unruly or the Indians...

    How many convictions of wrong doing? If you find enough arrests and charges and no convictions what will that tell you. Was he innocent? or, was he a beady eyed deceiver who could charm rational people senseless with his strange voo doo like charisma? BenJosh
