A beautiful May 1st at the Portland, OR temple for our weekly date night. So grateful for the peace I find here. If it's been a while since you've been to the temple, I encourage you to either find the time, or simply the strength to enter its doors. Blessings await!!

@muttilolly @MattTestifies Nothing wrong with legitimately asking someone when they saw a baby sin. Maybe they've never really thought about that before?

@ShellRamirez96 @MattTestifies My child was very sick in the nicu and they asked if we wanted to have him baptized or blessed. People are just trying their best. They don’t need to be mocked, they are extending what compassion they can.

A few days ago, I took heat for criticizing a video of a priest offering emergency baptism to sick infants. Let me make my stance clear again. Any doctrine that teaches a dying baby needs a last-second ordinance to make Christ willing or able to save them is not beautiful. It is not merciful. It is an insult to the Savior. Infants are not spiritually defective. They are not born guilty. They are not hanging over hell until someone gets water on their head. Jesus Christ is not weak. His grace is not trapped behind panic, ritual, or human permission. The real issue here is not baptism. It is what some people believe about Christ. If your theology makes the Savior less merciful than the parents begging Him to save their child, your theology is broken. I will never apologize for defending the innocence of children or the power of Jesus Christ to save them.

@muttilolly @MattTestifies I don't, at all, feel we were mocking.

@michaeljknowles @MattWalshBlog Quit with the cigars. You're gonna die early, don't do this to your body.

For the next 45 minutes, we’re having a cigar and solving all the problems. What should we cover? AUA!

"I want to be a priest when I grow up. I just want to ask, what would your advice be?"

@kariwarburton Yes!!!

I feel like everyone has a prophet who just soothes their soul Mine is President Gordon B. Hinckley

@ScottWarner18 @Lovemyproxy Eugene, Oregon

Our beautiful Tessa Belle just received her mission call. She will be opening it in an hour from now. I will give a $100 Amazon gift card to the first person who guesses where she will be serving for the next 18 months. Ready go!!!

@JonasTheNephite Hey there!

I just unfollowed all the apostates. If you’re still here, say hi

@defense_of_fam I completely agree.

@ShellRamirez96 I do think it has a place, but i also think it’s overused by those who don’t really need it.

Every ad I get on instagram is for some kind of GLP-1. Call me crazy, but the over advertising makes me a little skeptical. …and a little self conscious. 😂

@0hour1 You're telling me! I absolutely hate it here and if we could move, we would in a heart beat. Absolute corruption, socialism/communism and compete hatred for Trump.

Most of the Trump derangement syndrome comes from the Pacific Northwest. Huge trend.

@defense_of_fam Saw this from the president and immediately thought of Nelson and Oaks.

I’m teaching Pres. Oaks’ recent talk on peacemaking in the morning. As I was preparing, I happened to notice that contention is always the precursor of violence and war in the Book of Mormon. Sadly, we are seeing the fruits of contention in real time.

If you ever live close enough to attend a temple open house.... do it! My husband and I just drove nearly two hours to visit the Willamette Valley Oregon temple in the Eugene/Springfield area. Stunningly beautiful!

@Latterdaytruth Calm down.

Incredibly disappointed and disgusted by the image posted by the President of the United States. God will not be mocked.

@AwakenWithJP I started disliking them a long time ago the same time I started disliking you.

If you used to like Tucker, Alex, Candace, and Megyn but stopped liking them WHEN Trump turned on them, that is not a coincidence. You are a puppet. You might fool yourself and say “noooo,” yet you fool no one else. Everyone can see the elbow that’s up to your asshole.

@LDSBoomstick I just can't get into this series. I watched the first season and it just wasn't to my liking. But hey.... anything that brings more people to Christ I'm all for. Just wasn't for me.

Fans of The Chosen. I have seen the first episode. Does it get way better? I just wasn't hooked and am wondering your thoughts on why I should keep going.

@BTrey31 I love them!!

Just found a podcast called "The Stick Of Joseph" is this an good idea or not? Seems interesting. #LDSX #SaintsOnX

@megynkelly You are distrusting. I cannot believe I ever listened to you. Grow up already.

Micro is very mad. Micro doesn’t like it when you fight back. Micro prefers to be the only one hurling vile disgusting invective and he wants his female targets to sit back and take it. When a woman punches back at Micro he gets exasperated. Which is his default. Bc of his micropenis.

@Outspoken_Sam It doesn't help that the Charlie Kirk Show invited them on to host after he died and continued to use them at their events. Are Kolvet and Neff even "discouraged"'by them? They'll probably never even say.

I'm starting to realize that everyone I thought was on the same page as Charlie Kirk, were never even in the same book (Candace Owens, Megyn Kelly, Tucker Carlson, etc.) They all looked better than they were, because the light he shone on them made them look that way. Now that the light is gone, we can see that they are all truly engulfed in darkness. And maybe the exposure is exactly what we need. People we thought we could trust, we really can't. And it's better to know now as things get really tough, who would gladly lead us off a cliff if we let them.
