Why are you jumping the shark with thinking I am talking about creating worlds?
I said everything will eventually be known.
Luke 8:17
"For nothing is hidden that will not become evident, nor anything secret that will not be known and come to light.
What you should figure if I'm always speaking about what is in the Bible that I'm probably quoting from the Bible.
I went to Google and entered
Bible everything will be known
and guess what popped up?
Google might help you understand what Christians say. Just put Bible as the first word.
How is 'knowing' which is done with the mind about creating worlds?I simply asked the question: If eventually we know everything, which you say and quote the bible as saying (Luke 8:17) then the bible is insisting that it is possible to have the knowledge to create worlds like Jesus?
I Hope everyone notices that it is not me or a Christian calling anyone and more specificallymormons evil or anything elseI know this is one of the evil aspirations of the Mormons ?
You quoted Col 1:15 and then Col. 1:16 and then went right to 16 to comment and ended with they are not brothers. You did not comment on 15, that is the crucial verse.
We all know 16 and we believe it, but the question is, who created Jesus the firstborn? The word "firstborn" implies that God the Father had to have "made" him first (firstborn), and then "made" other spirit beings also, ( firstborn implies there is a secondborn, thirdborn, fourthborn etc, etc, etc.)
Could one of the xborn been lucifer? Isaiah 14 calls lucifer "a son of the morning".
Jesus is known as the "morning star", lucifer is know as "a son of the morning". Some scholars confuse this issue and say that both Jesus and lucifer are known as the "morning star". This is not true.
But what is true is that Jesus is the "morning star", he is the first to be "made". lucifer was not the first to be "made", but he was one of the first. His designation is "son of the morning" IOW he was "made" very early in the process (the morning of the process).
lucifer became an impressive leader and was very close to God the Father. But he began to hate Jesus because Jesus was the first, next to God, and as lucifer turned and started his accusations, he hated Jesus even more because Jesus gave him no reason to accuse, being sinless and always being willing to do the Father's will.
So lucifer began to accuse the other brethren, the other spirit children of God the Father, Jesus and lucifers brethren(Rev. 12:10) and eventually these 2 highly favored spirit brothers went to war against each other. The one, Jesus, of course stayed loyal to his God, God the Father. lucifer turned rapidly evil and in fact fought against his God, God the Father.
Lucifer lost and 1/3 of the spirit brethren "made" by God the Father followed him to earth.
Now thousands of years after this happened, we flinch at the notion that "the most evil one" and "the most righteous one" were once close brothers in a lovely setting at the throne of God the Father.
As I said, there is not a scripture in the bible that directly says that Jesus and lucifer are brothers. But putting all the scriptures together, on the subject,it is clearly evident that there is a strong position to be made for the Mormon POV
So am I biblically OK to say: If I overcome, I can sit in Jesus's throne and be like him?
Are you perfectly obedient to the Father? That is what Jesus is.So am I biblically OK to say: If I overcome, I can sit in Jesus's throne and be like him?

Would someone with Mormon beliefs please answer post #980.
We do not know the totality of who God is and we won't know until we meet Him face to face.
Do you realize what you are saying when you say we will "know everthing"?
Does "knowing everything" even mean you will have the knowledge to create worlds, like Jesus? You know that is a prominent Mormon POV.
Calm down.Didn't we just go over how you don't believe that Christ had no choice- and hence was forced to do what He did. In the absence of choice, there is no obedience at all.
Try the 3 questions that ask what the BOM teaches, with verses please.Your post 980 hits on a ton of different topics- to many to address in one post. I recommend breaking it up into different threads.

That is not something I believe in------Jesus had a choice, and it was a struggle for Him to come to that decision---3 times He asked for God to take that cup away, He sweated blood over it. Choosing to die did not come easy!!! Never the less--in the end--it was "Thy will be done."
I just want to know if each are Mormon doctrine. A yes or no for each is fineThe questions are built on a foundation of other beliefs, each of which needs to be gone through, defining terms, celebrating truth, and discarding false beliefs. This cannot be done in a single thread post here, and they also diverge significantly from the OP here. Hence why I'm recommending starting a new thread on each.
