Your understanding of Mormonism isn't very remarkable. How is this magic going to be accomplished exactly? You must be sealed here on Earth and here we have these millions of Mormons not doing that. But according to you, God it going to get out his magic wand and make everyone a polygamist.SteelHead wrote:Tobin, Though Mormons don't actively participate in polygamy today, the doctrine of it being a requirement for the highest degree of celestial glory has not changed.

Tobin, he never said everyone would be a polygamist. Again, please stop pretending to represent Mormonism. You're embarrassing the real saints here.

Re: Misconceptions about the Mormon Church (U.K.)
That's interesting. I fail to see how someone recommending that you humble yourself, seek and speak with the Lord and learn from him is apostasy. But then again, I tend to believe in God and the Gospel and you label such things as apostasy.Molok wrote:An apostate is telling me to talk to God. Now that's just cute. Who do you think showed me your apostasy sweetie?Tobin wrote:Go right ahead. I think you speaking with God more often is just what you need.

Wrong again. I believe that your bastardized version of Mormonism is apostasy, not true Mormonism.

And your lack of reason is embarrassing you. Again, the distorted view here is that polygamy is important to the afterlife. According to SteelHead, it is so important that you'll be damned if you don't live it. Yet, none of you have told me what is so important about it or give any justification at all for it. I have repeatedly pointed out that it is labeled a sin in the Book of Mormon. Something none of you deny. This hardly seems like something a God that views as so important to our well being and eternal salvation would do.Molok wrote:Tobin, he never said everyone would be a polygamist.

Yes, it is your belief. An unqualified, distorted, and unreasonable belief. As I've said, you are hardly the judge and your repeated attempts to throw around labels instead of dealing with my responses is indicative of the weakness of your position.Molok wrote:Wrong again.

It is not my belief, sorry. It is revealed truth. Your heart is simply too hard to accept that :(
It's painful to sit here and watch someone who claims to be a member of the faith lie so much. I hope that one day you will confess your sins and be forgiven.

Hmmm, that seems pretty clear and unqualified to me. I wonder who is a liar here?SteelHead wrote:<snip>
Practice polygamy or be damned. That is Mormon doctrine and scripture.

Tobin,
Polygamy is in the Book of Mormon. See verse 30 of Jacob 2.
Again, your personal brand of Mormonism is not scriptural.
