So, this is the report of Joseph Smith (found here Joseph Smith—History 1:19): I was answered that I must join none of them, for they were all wrong; and the Personage who addressed me said that all their creeds were an abomination in his sight; that those professors were all corrupt; that...

Well, there is ongoing repentance and ongoing forgiveness, if one extrapolates from Jesus' teachings. You seemed to be saying that repentance is a one and done proposition. That is not what scripture teaches. I was simply pointing that out to you.

Ummm...Jesus teaches that we must repent when we pray, and that we must forgive others to recieve forgiveness. He is talking to believers when he says this. This is made clear when he tells them that whatever they ask for in prayer believing will be theirs: 25And when ye stand praying, forgive...

I am glad that we agree on salvation. This is out of Mosiah ch 5: 8 And under this head ye are made free, and there is no other head whereby ye can be made free. There is no other name given whereby salvation cometh; therefore, I would that ye should take upon you the name of Christ, all you...

So...nobody really has the right to determine someone else's eternal destination but God. Why am I so often told that, because I believe in the Book of Mormon, I am not saved? Who gives someone the right to determine where someone else will spend eternity? Is that not between God and the...

Here is a very good video about BoM geography and North America. It is an hour and a half, but hey, if you are really interested in the truth then take the time to study. I went on a 3 year quest to determine what I believed. 1.5 hours will not kill you. Though, as someone else said of Mormons...

See I just disagree. Not with the fact that Jesus is Lord, nor with the truth that I am not. I believe that anything Jesus did here on this earth, in his humanity, is available for us to do as well. He came to teach us how it looks when one has ultimate intimacy with God. It was this intimacy...

Right! They go to Hell and smoke! See what I did there? I have less and less problems with what anybody does the older and more mature a Christian I become. It's between you and God, let Him convict you if that's what He wants to do, not another person.

Well, mostly because I'm more like David than like Paul. I loved the Lord, but I made mistakes, i wasn't always faithful, both in sexual matters and familial duties. I lost track of who I was and have taken a long road to an understanding of where I failed. We separated due to a dwi, and she...

Well well! Thank you all for your words of wisdom. Yes, she is saved. She is younger than my two eldest, a few years older than the other four. We do have many many like interests atm, but that could, and maybe inevitably will, change as she gets older. It's not a sexual thing, but a matter of I...

I'm not convinced I am going to persue it but I wanted to make sure if I did I wasn't missing some bilical principle in doing so. Thank you for the advice.

Ugh, I meant I forgot that there was even a marital status thing in the profile. My phone a0arently thinks forget was better there. She is significantly younger. Not underage obv, but she is quite a bit younger.

Oh right, I haven't been on in a while. Got divorced kind of recently. Haven't changed that yet. Forgot about it.

I am struggling with social stigma vs biblical reality when it comes to dating someone younger than myself. I can think of nothing that prohibits it, but I also know that people judge quickly and harshly an older man (42) with a young lady. Im not in love, but I could easily go there. We hit it...

That's great! Thank you for posting. Here's some rap music
