@K10original @AmyMek I still typing it up, but i have been low on free time, so its taking longer then I want it to. I'll get it to you soon

@BladeworksDg @AmyMek Hi, just checking in.... Did you email me yet?? It's been a minute, so it's possible it got buried?

Yeah, it seems so. Ironically she challenges me to provide proof, but then immediately blocks me. Seems like an underhanded way to get the truth out, to the world it appears that she challenges and i back down... it seems to me that if she truely cared about truth and her cause, she would hear what i have to say and promote discussion. Any way I'm not worried about it. As your a member, you get a follow!

I am in what is parhaps the most trying situation of my life. While I can't go into details, I can say that this "situation" brought me back out of inactivity, and as I'm now active, I pay tithing. I don't do it because I expect to always have money through inadvertent blessings. I do it because I have been commanded to, and I have covenented to be obedient to this principle. I can say that I have been blessed for doing this - at times temporarily, and other times spiritually. I highly recommend obedience to this commandment, and testify that the lord takes care of those who keep their covenants!

For 6 months I wasn’t paying tithing because I felt like we weren’t making ends meet. Then, after hearing someone bear their testimony about it in Relief Society, I decided to give it another try. After just two tithing offerings, demand for my business picked up out of nowhere. It’s so overwhelming. I’ve had to raise my prices.

@BlackBlessedLDS 😞

On the positive side, it does require us to be more reliant on home centered church. Which I believe is the ultimate goal.

@Samuraijrussell @Critertarian @seanryanlayton You did it again. Go back and re-read the original post.

@Critertarian @seanryanlayton I did respond: there is no evidence as you claim. All AI and archeology is simply wrong is your claim? 🤣

God specifically commanded Nephi not to include secular histories of wars and kings. Nephi was instead commanded to record a spiritual record upon the small plates. The Book of Mormon is meant to be a test of faith and righteousness, not of worldly pursuits and physical evidence. It has enough of those things as it is.

@BlackBlessedLDS 😞

I literally thought to myself today “I need to do better at having a church centered home.” Then BOOM. This change. God is calling my bluff and I don’t like it 🤣

@VVenerabilis Sorry, I don't meet that discription.

Where are my super based LDS parents with sons aged 16 or 17?

@LDS_Dems Another banger

To paraphrase Winston Churchill, a Latter-day Saint who supports Christian Nationalism is one who "feeds a crocodile, hoping it will eat him last."

I'm with you on this one. "No more Muslims" - there can be no law against ones beliefs "No more criminals" - we already have laws for them, just need to enforce them "No more Marxists" - there can be no law against ones beliefs Most Muslims are good people who should have the right to practiced their religion as they see fit. I may not agree with all that they believe, but that's why I'm not Muslim. A clear distinction needs to be made between Muslims and radical Islam. We cannot be punishing a whole religious group simply because of a few with bad intentions are in play. That takes us no where good

No more Muslims? Really? Why is everyone okay with a Congressman spitting on the First Amendment, violating his oath and pushing blatant religious bigotry? Remember my fellow Saints, every bit of hate that we tolerate in others will some day be used against us.

@LukeFHan I think the best thing we can do is to forgive, wish them well, then choose to not support them. Two things can need true. Forgiveness does not mean sticking around for more abuse

We shouldn't get mad at Matt Fradd for this. Before you grab the pitchforks hear me out. Matt Fradd isn't the one doing this. His Daily Wire production team is the one that picked the Godmakers clips, edited the video, and put it out on Matts page. They are the main culprits.

@Manhattva I did... some time ago.

If you’re still subscribed to the Daily Wire, You should cancel it.

@jonathanplumb I'm sad to read some of these comments...

Some of you all will be VERY shocked to find many Muslims you so vehemently fought against exalted with Christ in His Kingdoms forever. And you will similarly be very shocked to find many you believed to be righteous thrust out to outer darkness. Choose love over hate.

@jonathanplumb There is a huge movment to do this, but I'm not surprised to see this among us. We must love our neighbors regardless of religon... even Muslims.

If you can’t see the current operation to pit Latter-day Saints against Islam — You will become a casualty of war. We love Muslims. We love Catholics. We love Protestants. We love you all. We might not love your doctrines, but we love you, and want you to be able to live your life according to the desires of your heart, even if that means you cling to what we consider abominable teachings. Do not feed the trolls.

Hey @LDS_Dems, this is an important argument - and I think you are right to make it. The country is quickly polarizing, and has been for years. Things are quickly becoming less and less about what is right and wrong. I'm amazed at how so many of us are losing our bearings on what the teachings of Christ mean, and being replaced by popular narratives. Only a few years ago we would have opened our selves to other faiths and idiologies with love... perhaps with a missionary spirit, but with love none the less. The adversary is really good at taking one point of truth and refraiming that truth into some thing insidious. For example, we SHOULD NOT pull the hand of fellowship from Muslims simply because some Muslim terrorist factions exist, and behave poorly. The book of Mormon clearly teaches that there should not be a law against a man's beliefs. Further, when the nephites grew wicked they first stopped loving their neighbor's and started persecution against those not of their religion.

For some members of the LDS Church, the most difficult commandment to follow is the one we carve onto every building: "visitors welcome" That includes Muslims in need of a temporary place to worship. That includes members of the LGBTQ community seeking to come closer to Christ

@K10original @AmyMek I love Isaiah, but I'm still working on him and his teachings Still catching up with where I should be on learning some of these things.

@BladeworksDg @AmyMek And then Isaiah taught, that the Spirit speaks so soft, but your "Hear Him" loud 💪👍 I was counseled, that if I studied all the Principles in Isaiah, applied them, lived them, and made them a part of "who I am", then all of the wounds of this world would be removed, IT WORKED

@K10original @AmyMek Cool I'll type it up. It is longer, so it will be a bit. I need to type it up anyway, so that I have it organized and well put together.

@BladeworksDg @AmyMek 😲🙆 I completely missed this post, I'm so sorry. Yes absolutely, DM me, I would love to hear your story & in confidence, or email kristen_michelle@yahoo.com

I'm trying to follow the spirit, I worry I don't always understand when he is speaking to me. I agree that he protects us, though i was say he doesn't shield us completely. My trial deals with evil, both my own... and what has been done to me. I don't have issues generally sharing my story, except in public forums like this one. It's of the nature, that if I share it publicly it can complicate my life dramatically. I've shared before to others in DM's. One day I'll be able to say it out loud, and for all... but I'm not there just yet. If you wanna hear it it has to be private, otherwise I will share it publicly one day, when the danger has past.

@BladeworksDg @AmyMek You're following the Spirit 😉 something many aren't doing. You stay with the Saviors guidance. Im a witness to His solid protection from the Evil that surrounds me, when we're on the covenant path. One day, I hope to hear more of your story 😊😇

@jonathanplumb True, though we must not allow tolerance to go to far. Example: tolerating an enemy trying to take your life, or a person trying to harm a child goes to far. We must love all of God's children, but we must first love the lord our God first.

My favorite commandment: “Love thy neighbor as thyself, but only if they are the same religion as you.”

I think it's understand your position, and if i do, I agree. We are taught to not hate the children of God regardless of religion. Further we learn from the scriptures that laws should not be passed to control thought. For us to try to do anything else would be following satans plan when he true to destroy the agency of man.

This is our heritage. If instead the things we think and say about Hindus, Muslims, or others sound more like the baying of the mobs in Missouri or the hate- and lie-filled anti-'Mormonism' that helped fuel the attack on our chapel in Michigan, then we have turned aside.

Too many Saints have replaced our doctrine with trendy political positions. Joseph Smith helped create this law in March 1841. It grants toleration to 'Mohamedans' [Muslims] and bans 'ridiculing, abusing, or otherwise depreciating another, in consequence of his religion'.
