Gaz advocates death by blood atonement for Chad Hardy?

[_asbestosman]

I don't know what constitutes blasphemy against the Holy Ghost, but I had thought it was when we know the church is true but deny it in the sense of standing outside on a hot, clear summer day at noon and denying that the sun is shining. When does that happen? I do not know.

As to the Second Coming, LDS believe that Jesus will rule the earth both spiritually and politically.

I would also think that blood atonement will not happen at that time since we believe that only those sufficiently rightous well remain and that Satan will be bound in the first place. Nobody will commit adultery, murder, etc., during the millenium so nobody will be punished for it.

Hey Gaz why do you accept BYs wild teachings about blood atonement but not his teachings about AG. You know that the FLDS and other splinter groups still believe in blood atonement (can you say Lafferty brothers), Adam God and polygamy for exaltation as well.

Is there an echo in here?

Okay, now someone explain to me what Nehor was on about regarding Blood Atonement not being possible until the Second Coming. Is that because LDS believe a theocracy will be instituted at that time that allows for Blood Atonement? If so, does that mean that they believe Christ will command it or come in the clouds sword in hand and go about slitting throats himself?

Since LDS believe that LDS Inc is the only divine organization on the earth(even DCP calls LDS the KINGDOM), when Christ supposedly returns in all of his power and being the top Mormon, the world will now be under a Mormon theocracy lead by the top Mormon leader himself, Jesus.

And so this is where the idea comes from that LDS will rule the world via exponential growth, right?

I believe they think this exponential growth would happen before the second coming...

That was just a test, abman. I don't know of any EV's who can explain what it is either. Thanks.

I get it. So what happens when (I'm going off on a tangent a.k.a. the wrong road so bear with me) it is discovered that the Book of Mormon was really written by a Baptist preacher...will all LDS become Baptists then?

I would also think that blood atonement will not happen at that time since we believe that only those sufficiently rightous well remain and that Satan will be bound in the first place. Nobody will commit adultery, murder, etc., during the millenium so nobody will be punished for it.

Okay, so right there, what Gaz is saying makes no theological/doctrinal sense to begin with. I hope he comes back and reads these comments by knowledgeable LDS.

I can't wait...

Just shut up, GoodK.

I think this is what you were talking about, Jersey Girl ;)

[_Jersey Girl]

That was the type of imagery I had in mind as well. So the sword isn't symbolic, it's for slitting throats. You know, they never taught me that in Sunday School, GoodK. Must have had a milk before meat before blood policy or something.

Speaking of milk before meat before blood...you know, it occurs to me that if churches would stick with the milk, things would be better all around.

But the milk comes from the meat. Dairy farmers slaughter dry milk cows.
