LDS Moroni's Trumpet

[Tra Phull]

In the earthquake, first I heard that Moroni fell off the Temple - then, no, only his trumpet fell off. ???

Thank you for noting that as I heard that recently SL City had an earthquake and your story is true. Moroni lost his trumpet.

As the Mormon folklore goes --when Christ returns this mythical angel is supposed to blow his trumpet and the sealed doors of that Temple are supposed to burst open.Heard that story on the SLCity Temple grounds many years ago. Guess this mythical angel will have a hard time blowing his trumpet without it.

Maybe God is trying to tell Mormons something here.

Lots of Christians were having visions from God in the 1830s.. Consider Joseph Smith, Ella White, John Nelson Darby and John Wilson (British Israelites).. How weird that they all contradicted each other.

Mormons can afford to repair the damage.

What a shameful abuse of power. He should be relieved of his position. How is this not a "prosperity gospel" message that some Mormons on here have complained that Christian pastors teach?

Pretty much, yes:

Pretty much, yes:

(Old Testament | Malachi 3:8 - 10)

8 ¶ Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee? In tithes and offerings.
9 Ye are cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed me, even this whole nation.
10 Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.

What would happen if a "supervolcano" eruption occurred again at Yellowstone?

If anything, it's a warning that Yellowstone might be ready to blow before too long and that people need to get their things in order.

A worst-case scenario for Yellowstone going is that volcanic ash will cover all of North America, leading to rampant global cooling that could drop the planet's temperature by a goodly amount for years to come, something that could have devastating effects on crops and other food-related activities, let alone modern society as we know it.

So now's not the time to be laughing it up.

Oh I guarantee that I am NOT laughing as many Mormons who are now decieved will find out in the End that they were.

 

[Tra Phull]

I don't think anyone is laughing.

I just wonder if Moroni' s trumpet can be put back on.

My older nephew is in Salt Lake City. I don't think there were any deaths because of the earthquake.

It's not about "judgement of God" or anything. A natural phenomenon occurred, the Temple was damaged, that's all.
A bit of news, not 666 or sky is falling scenario.

 

[Tra Phull]

But I thought it was Gabriel that blows the trumpet, don't know how that got started, but generally Moroni is not a trumpeteer of non-Mormons.

 

[Tra Phull]

I find nowhere in Bible that says Gabriel is the trumpet-blower. Really nowhere that says he is an archangel like Michael. Moroni, I don't think is in the Bible.

 

[Tra Phull]

Whether Gabriel, Moroni or whoever...
IT'S GONNA HAPPEN !!

The payment of tithes is mandatory for members to receive the priesthood or obtain admission to temples.

The LDS Church is a lay ministry.[30] The money that is given is used to build and maintain church buildings as well as to further the work of the church.[31] None of the funds collected from tithing is paid to church officials or those who serve in the church.[citation needed] Brigham Young University, a church-sponsored institution, also receives "a significant portion" of its maintenance and operating costs from tithes of the church's members.

However, the history of the Hebrew tithes is different.
