Truth comes from the heart. If you are using our words and assigning a different meaning to them and knowingly representing yourself, that is a sin and an untruth. No matter which way you slice it.Does anyone care that Mormons do NOT think other Christians are Hellbound sinners? But rather othe Christians are viewed genuine disciples of Christ following the Lord the best they know how, with a very real possibility of being with Him in the eternities?
I guess God is lying as well.This is purely satanic! sounds like something from the theosophical society, gnosticism or better yet the same lie from the Serpent in the garden of Eden.
Genesis 3:5
5 For God knows that in the day you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”
Catholics do not believe that one must be Catholic to receive eternal life. Indeed, we accept as valid baptisms (which we view as salvific) in various other Christian churches.

I thought we had built some trust, but now I see that you are just boxing with words with me. I'm pretty sad about it, actually.
What deeply bothers me Jane is that you said that Jesus is the only way to heaven and that you have been saved by Christ like I have been saved by Christ. By His blood which is atonement for all sin.I'm trying hard to convey what I believe to you, because you have an extremely poor understanding of it (I mean this with no offense). I am not trying to hide anything, I've always answered your questions, defined terms, and worked hard to properly explain things.

But then, your faith says that all Christians are in apostasy because we do not believe that JS is a prophet? You knew from the get-go I was very clear that I thought JS was a false prophet. And that one has to be a member of the Mormon church, which you know and I have made very clear that I would never be.
So the act was acting like we were the same in Christ, even though you do not believe that I would spend eternity with Christ.
That to me is one of the worst things to betray trust.
Why would you not be proclaiming the Mormon gospel from the rooftops shouting that all should be saved. So do Mormons spread their gospel (false as it is), no not really, but they are the 'only church' come to bring everyone else 'BACK' to Christ.
I did not say you viewed JS as Christ.Yes, I did say that and I'll say it again because it is the Truth. It is this is the foundation of the Gospel and all Christain (including Mormon) beliefs. Christ and His sacrifice make our salvation possible: there is NO other way besides through Him. Without Him, everything else is for squat. You and I, both of us Christians, are in 100% agreement on this.
Mormons do NOT view Joseph Smith as Christ. Joseph Smith is just a servant, Christ is the LORD.
There are many mansions in heaven. You will be in heaven. But just as anyone has to believe in Christ to get on the road of salvation there are many blessings that God has revealed today that will help s gain the highest of eternal opportunities.I did not say you viewed JS as Christ.
I said that you believe that unless someone believes that JS is a true prophet of Christ, that that person will not go to heaven.
You also believe that if one does not belong to the Mormon church, one will not go to heaven.
So, that was leaving a lot out when we were very specifically talking about salvation. I outlined in GREAT DETAIL what I believed one needed to go to heaven. You did not.
In actuality if we never spoke again a week ago, in your view I would be on my way to hell and you supposedly from the 'only true church' would have let me go there by not preaching your gospel.
That is a fact.
That is not what the Mormon faith says? Are you a Mormon in good standing?There are many mansions in heaven. You will be in heaven. But just as anyone has to believe in Christ to get on the road of salvation there are many blessings that God has revealed today that will help s gain the highest of eternal opportunities.
Than you are misrepresenting yourself because I have posted the exact verses from the LDS website.Yes I am
I really want Jane to come back and answer my post. Jaaane come baaaack!
So, if I were to go around to all Christian churches and ask them the following questions, would I get the same answers from everyone, or would I receive confusing conflicting answers?
Which books are in the Bible?
What is required for salvation?
Does God have priesthood representatives here on Earth?
Is the Lord's Supper symbolic or literal flesh?
How important is Mary?
Ok. I'll talk with you tonight when you come back. I want to finish our discussion.Lol, nice to be loved. I started a post for you, and intent to finish it, but it'll probably be later tonight. I have family stuff this afternoon.
