Would a Utah State Dollar be a good idea?

Being open to such ideas may be a serious violation of Yahweh's Instructions.
Especially then being "wide open"....

I thought that it was kind of neat that several are shown that President Trump has some sort of Cyrus calling.... and Mitt has some sort of Darius calling on his life. Latter day Saints did a great job of assisting after Hurricane Katrina and do help the poor a lot so something may come out of this yet.

ooops.... I did not realize that both subtle and not so subtle deceptions are so widely accepted.

That is one way to look at it.... but here is another:

Billionaire George Soros is calling for the devaluation of the USA dollar.

A Utah State Dollar could in theory so well back up the USA Dollar…. that the upheaval in the lives of Americans is kept to a minimum in the event that he gets his wish.

No...it's a terrible idea.

Latter day Saints are flawed...... just like all Christians but.... they are the only denomination that essentially have control of an entire State..... that could in theory initiate a State Dollar or Volunteerism Hour somewhat like Irving Fischer Ph. D. convinced over a thousand communities to do during the Great Depression. The experiment began in Worgl, Austria but he brought it to America and it shifted the way that we view economics.

Not just flawed, lost. They are not Christian, and not like all Christians.
I have met quite a few of them.... .and they pray just like other Christians. They read the Bible just like other Christians.... they attempt to do good works for the homeless and poor..... just like other Christians.... .and they fall into sin just like other Christians.

Thankfully, we do not test anyone according to what you know or who you met;
rather , by Yahweh's Word - He is the Judge, His Word is Truth.

They are lost, not Christian, like the rest of unbelievers on earth.
They are not judged for their beliefs, but for their unbelief, like the rest of the world all around you and them and everywhere.

As to your observations: the natural mind cannot discern the truth, nor grasp spiritual things, nor understand Yahweh's Word,
so you conclusions are opposed to Scripture, opposed to Jesus.

Turn to Yahweh, for His Kingdom is at hand. Only He is able to save anyone, as His Word Says. Those who reject His Word, are rejecting Him.

Or most simple: as Jesus says, "must be born again".... not even all the knowledge in the world everywhere can save anyone who is not born again by the Will of the Father in Heaven, as His Word Says Clearly.
True.... but even people who have had the Holy Spirit given to them can still. be tempted toward gossip and slander. The Corinthians got into competition over who was the greatest teacher..... Paul, Apollos or some other Apostle. Latter day Saints struggle with sin and pray to be given the Holy Spirit just like all other Christians....... remember what it says about asking for bread.... will you be given a stone.... if you pray and ask for a fish... .will you be given a serpent?

This is what you have been told by people you trust..... I had once been taught something similar by people I trusted.... but I no longer trust my old teachers on all subjects.

If you are not told the truth by Yahweh, you never know the truth.

Today or ever.

No, that is not what I was told by any humans. You have apparently not found the truth yet. That does no mean you cannot find the truth,
but Yahweh's Promise is not that people will tell you the truth (He shows that people have not told you the truth) ,
but that IF you seek Him, IF you seek the truth and keep seeking Him and the truth,
THEN , His Promise, THEN you will find the truth, and THEN you will find HIM.

Take a look at this poll.......

Do some research.... and see what YHWH will tell you about this?

Maybe..... just maybe YHWH is leading you to a higher level of wisdom right here...... right now.... so that you can reach more people that have been brought into your life by YHWH.
Friends of yours watch Heaven Is For Real and ask you about it?

Did you know already that that movie/ story has already been shown to be false ?
No..... you are getting it confused with the story of a boy named Malarkey...... a totally different case than that of Colton Burpo.

... not to mention that "messianic" believers, following Jesus according to Yahweh's Word, know that that other group you posted about are not saved, are not Christian....

Roman Catholics and Latter day Saints..... no matter what sins and problems they wrestle with as all of us do.... at least they tend to recognize the near death experience account of Colton Burpo and many others more readily than many supposedly superior denominations. They eventually will be given credit for doing that....... Because it gives them an open door to the lost that others reject....
