Just noticed something this morning! There are several different words using the OT for “work” and “labor”, but what is interesting is the word used with regard to the work/labor that we are not to perform on the Sabbath. Check this out! Exo 20:8-11 Remember the sabbath day, to...

Was Paul a misogynist? So often I have heard this accusation made against Paul that I have decided to address it and those verses of scripture that are used to support it. First I will take a look at 1 Ti 2:11-15: Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. But I suffer...

I don't want this thread to turn into an argument over the Doctrine of the Trinity and whether or not it is "true"; I just want to discuss "the definition" and look at how the Doctrine if defined or explained by those who believe it to be true. It doesn't even have to be a long discussion, I'm...

In another thread St.PaultheApostle posted the following: To which SoftSpoken replied: I would like to discuss the disagreement. I was never taught that those born with black skins are "cursed of God" (per say) but, as an LDS, I was taught that one's skin color is an indicator of their...

... conferred it onto Peter, James at John? (link) We learn from latter-day revelation that Elijah held the sealing power of the Melchizedek Priesthood and was the last prophet to do so before the time of Jesus Christ. He appeared on the Mount in company with Moses (also translated) and...

This was another thing that stood out to me a few weeks ago as I began to make my way through the BoM and the D&C again, for the first time in awhile (at least for the D&C). D&C 110 says: In intro: SECTION 110 Visions manifested to Joseph Smith the Prophet and Oliver Cowdery in the...

D& C 19: 6-12 6 Nevertheless, it is not written that there shall be no end to this torment, but it is written endless torment. 7 Again, it is written eternal damnation; wherefore it is more express than other scriptures, that it might work upon the hearts of the children of men...

Tavita, I'm getting ready to head out to have lunch with my son but this study popped into my head as I was getting ready to leave. I didn't want to post this on the other thread since the topic there was endless torment, but I wanted to share this study with you since the second death and the...

TrustandObey, I wanted to show you part of a study that I did in 2005 on “the body”, “the soul” and the “the spirit” to show you that I do know where you are coming from when you talk about the dead being dead. The conclusion that I reached then (as this study will show) was that “the dead...

I've read MANY threads on this forum where people refer to Allah as the God of the Muslim's as if this is a proper name of some "false god" and that is just not true, so I would really like to set the record straight and educate those who are unaware of the fact that "Allah" is the ARABIC WORD...

Not too much in the way of “comment” ^_^ just showing some of the connections that I see in scripture concerning “the serpent” (that is satan, the devil):mad: , the “tongue” :P ((of the)) “wicked” (who have THEIR PART in the lake of fire which is...

I wrote this about 9 months ago, not sure if it might need some "tweeks" by now... but thought I would share it since I have seen others make reference to the thousand years. Looking here at the "ages"… "eternal life"… “night/day”…. "yesterday" and "today" and the "thousand years” and how...

I used to associate Michael with Christ, but I am no longer so sure. I saw this mentioned on the JW board and posted the following but no one responded. I saw the same thing mentioned on this board by Craig. So maybe he or someone else can help me with explaining this passage: -------...

Many people see “eternal life” as the life that we have with God after we die and leave this world. But that is not how the scriptures define “eternal life”. Here are some verses that tell us what “eternal life” ~is~. And they show that this LIFE is something that believers have NOW, for this...

I mentioned this study on the Lazarus and the rich man thread. I started to post it there, but thought maybe I better post it separate. OK, this is long.... (two posts) :o Joh 8:23 And he said unto them, Ye are FROM BENEATH; I am from above: ye are OF THIS WORLD; I am not of this world...
