Re: Jew,Christian, Mormon, a childs question
It is? If you say so. But I personally know hundreds of people who have made covenants with God and have kept them. Essentially the whole Old Testament is about God making covenants with his...

Re: Jew,Christian, Mormon, a childs question
VEry well. But I had no idea you were looking for a debate. You simply stated that you consider the Mormon view of Satan to be nonbelievable. I'm fine with that. I was just wondering what your...

Re: Jew,Christian, Mormon, a childs question
That's fine. But may I ask a few questions?
1. In your faith, who is Satan and how did he come to be Satan?
2. What is Satan's relationship with the Father?
3. Why is your view of Satan the...

Re: Jew,Christian, Mormon, a childs question
This is a bit short sighted, and certainly NOT Mormon doctrine.
Mormons view salvation as being "saved" from the effects of death and sin. This is a HUGE gift offered by our Father and made...

Re: Jew,Christian, Mormon, a childs question
It is another urban myth.
Mormons believe that humans can, by making and keeping covenants, become co-heirs with Christ in ALL that the Father has. This is a Biblical concept.

Re: The Bible and Science
Aaah. So when you say "the Bible" you meant "the scriptures".

Re: Jew,Christian, Mormon, a childs question
May I point out a possible contradiction? When you claim you know you are going to heaven, you are claiming you know a "particular individual is going to heaven". Mormons find that arrogant.

I don't know what you studied, but the above is NOT "Mormonism". Not even close. You have an utterly false notion about Mormonism.
Same reply applies to this question.
