Re: What Anti-Mormon Influencers Have In Common With Joseph Smith
Lowrance, you posted, “ That is, the anti-Mormon influencer community has learned over the last few decades that exmormons are vulnerable and often fearful of leaving the religion in which they grew up.” What do you think would be the reasons someone would be fearful of leaving TCoJCoLDS? Where doe...

Re: Making Covenants
Can you explain how you think your response to "runewell" addresses what they have said? Can you also explain why you think their post is off topic and a critical "vent"? Thanks in advance. runewell’s scriptural references are limited in scope. I referred him/her to a part of a talk given recently ...

Re: Making Covenants
Can you explain how you think your response to "runewell" addresses what they have said? Can you also explain why you think their post is off topic and a critical "vent"? Thanks in advance. Sure. My interests aligned with my opening post. The thread was bearing off in other directions. Not that I d...

Re: Making Covenants
Speaking from a Christian point of view that is an incorrect assumption, using two verses from the book of John: John 1:12 says "Yet to all who did receive him [Jesus], to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God." John 8:38 says "You belong to your father, the de...

Re: Making Covenants
Interestingly, the current First Presidency, Presiding Bishopric, Ensign Peak Advisors and Kirton McConkie have all breached their covenants. Without any censure for doing so. By their example your protestations in support of covenants are rendered irrelevant. It’s clear you don’t need to keep your ...

Complete honesty is necessary for our salvation. President Brigham Young said, “If we accept salvation on the terms it is offered to us, we have got to be honest in every thought, in our reflections, in our meditations, in our private circles, in our deals, in our declarations, and in every act of ...

Re: Church comments on SEC settlement
The reports are saying that they didn’t even know the ins and outs of what was happening with the way Ensign Peaks was moving the money around. The First Presidency, and Presiding Bishopric were the primary decision makers for the creation of the dishonest LLCs. It might be beneficial to read the S...

Re: Church comments on SEC settlement
Where do you get tax evasion? Doesn’t the understating of their collective filing mean they’ve underpaid their full tax obligation? Especially if those smaller, shell entities were stated as being based in low tax areas, or were constructed in a way as to be below whatever the thresholds are for co...
