I can be worse in real life. Fortunately, such occasions are rare.Lucinda wrote:jbug--do you talk like this in the real world?
I don't take kindly to LDS members so quickly and casually throwing plain and clear scripture to the curb if it suits their personal agenda that comes from the crapheadedness of the world, especially if just a little bit of common sense were used and they would see the fallacy, or at least the potential fallacy, of their position.

I'm probably among only a handful of real people you have ever dialoged with. Most people are so busy calculating so as not to offend that they leave kindness at the curb and enter into the domain of being "nice", which is a form of dishonesty in my view.
When you are dealing with me, you know straight up right where you stand because I'll tell you. I'm not afraid to piss you off if that's what it takes to get a point across. However, there shall be no malvolence or pleasure in your pain on my part, only hope that you might just be willing to consider a view you are either afraid of or indifferent to that by not doing so, in my opinion, could clearly lead to seriously crappy eternal consequences.
I admit I could be mistaken that this person idealizes having a husband that jumps at every mere suggestion of hers without grounding himself firmly to a Lord other than her. But, there certainly is very strong evidence in the minset she is coming from that suggests such. If I do ever find I have gone over the top, I will eat humble pie and apologize. I've done it before and I anticipate I may do it again. If the word battle becomes sore, I can lose my footing at times.
I am definitely not a mainstream LDS but I am devoted to the church and take all of my oaths and covenants seriously. I expect some day I could be excommunicated and I'm willing for that to happen, but I am in no hurry to get there.Lucinda wrote:If you are comfortable answering, I'd love to know if you consider yourself a true TBM and if so, what calling to you have in your ward?
So was Jesus dying on the cross to save your soul a form of spiritual and mental abuse. For heaven's sake, you think a woman can have her rebellion and her privileges too? That's like me telling Jesus its spiritual and mental abuse for me to have to rely upon His Word through His Lord's Anointed Prophet and the confirmation of the Holy Spirit of Promise in order for me to have a wife with me in the Father's Kingdom. And that if I do not fully and completely submit myself to His will, as He has done to the Father's will, that all of my rights and privileges in the Father's Kingdom are forefeit.Lucinda wrote:I agree with just me:The so-called Law of Sarah is not a law. It does not empower women. It is spiritual and mental abuse.
Look, if you ladies want to go out and marry some guy who is the man of your dreams outside of the confines of what Celestial Law prescribes, you go for it. While you are at it, if it does not meet the criteria of the temple ceremony, please do yourself the courtesy to not mock God and think you are going to impose your personal fantasy into the matter and have God vindicate and reward it with His eternal blessings.
If you think to pull this off you are worse than on your own. You are viewed as a tare and shall be treated accordingly. You are better off to surrender your membership and forfeit your spiritual resurrection, which is what happens when you receive the Gift of the Holy Ghost, than to go into your judgment as a tare.
By joining the church and being reunited with your eternal soul and thus as Adam becomming a "living soul" you are now elevating yourself to that level of accountability and potentially bringing your eternal soul under eternal condemnation.
If you recognize you are currently in a state of mind where your spiritual resurrection has no integrity, per all the factors governing it (namely the Word of God including section 132), then you should willingly put your eternal soul back on the shelf in safe keeping and not drag it down to the second death. You shall be dammed anyway, but far less horrendously than if you are found to be a tare.
The Father's Plan is the Law that shall govern the Celestial Kingdom. The core of this plan is to maintain liberty in a long-lasting manner instead of the "flash in the pan" version of short-lived liberty the United States of America has seen come and soon to go.
Did you know that America actually means "Kingdom of Heaven"? Look at the etymology in Galic, German, Hebrew, etc. and it points to this hidden meaning. We currently are in the new War in Heaven (America) in the pre-existence of the new Creation right now.
You would do well to consider you are standing in direct opposition to the Father and the Plan He gave us through Joseph Smith Jun. Lucifer is currently standing at the head of pretty much everything while Eve (the church) remains beguiled and fast asleep with her eyes (seers) closed.
The time for Eve to wake up and say "I know thee now! ..." and to participate again in casting the old Serpent out is right on our doorsteps. Only those who awaken to their awful situation and revitalize their understanding of and appreciation for the Father's Plan and pledge their all to its redemption shall be found worthy to inherit it.
Those tares who fight against it shall be ejected from Abel's and Seth's linege and only be allowed to be sealed into Cain's lineage, which shall align their future physical resurrection in the new Creation to only inhabit bodies with the curse of Cain. This is the realization of Perdition.
The bodies they may legitimately receive are not heirs of "life" (spiritual life) and salvation because they are experiencing the second death, which is spiritual death. Put another way, they are denied the ability to receive the Gift of the Holy Ghost eternally. Not to mention, the men also have their priesthood stripped eternally.
This is the cliff I see dead ahead for many of my dear brothers and sisters in the church that I desire with all my heart to wake them up and get them off the doomed path they are currently on. Supporting the progressive feminist agenda of Lucifer inside the church is guaranteed Perdition.
You should take up this subject with far more caution and consideration than you seem to be. Your eternal soul is hanging in the balance. Also, hopefully the tidbit in this post about Eve will help you understand who your Mother in Heaven really is in real life. She is the "Mother of all LIVING". Please wake up!
