Warning to all new comers will be gang up on if not siding with the Progressives.
Careful not to question or contradict!

THE
DOCTRINE AND COVENANTS OF THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST OF LATTER-DAY SAINTS SECTION 132
51–57, Emma Smith is counseled (commanded) to be faithful and true; 58–66, Laws governing the plurality of wives are set forth.
51 Verily, I say unto you: A commandment I give unto mine handmaid, Emma Smith, your wife, whom I have given unto you, that she stay herself and partake not of that which I commanded you to offer unto her; for I did it, saith the Lord, to aprove you all, as I did Abraham, and that I might require an offering at your hand, by covenant and sacrifice.
52 And let mine handmaid, Emma Smith, areceive all those that have been given unto my servant Joseph, and who are virtuous and pure before me; and those who are not pure, and have said they were pure, shall be destroyed, saith the Lord God.
53 For I am the Lord thy God, and ye shall obey my voice; and I give unto my servant Joseph that he shall be made ruler over many things; for he hath been afaithful over a few things, and from henceforth I will strengthen him.
55 But if she will not abide this commandment, then shall my servant Joseph do all things for her, even as he hath said; and I will bless him and multiply him and give unto him an ahundredfold in this world, of fathers and mothers, brothers and sisters, houses and lands, wives and children, and crowns of beternal lives in the eternal worlds.

BUt the are SO many questions!
One's that should be SO easily answered!!
Like...
Just WHAT did Joseph Smith 'learn' that was UNTRUE about PRESBYTERIANism?
It seems tyo be something MORMONism is built upon.
“I have learned for myself that Presbyterianism is not true.”
17 It no sooner appeared than I found myself delivered from the enemy which held me bound. When the light rested upon me I saw two Personages, whose brightness and glory defy all description, standing above me in the air. One of them spake unto me, calling me by name and said, pointing to the other—This is My Beloved Son. Hear Him!
18 My object in going to inquire of the Lord was to know which of all the sects was right, that I might know which to join. No sooner, therefore, did I get possession of myself, so as to be able to speak, than I asked the Personages who stood above me in the light, which of all the sects was right (for at this time it had never entered into my heart that all were wrong)—and which I should join.
19 I was answered that I must join none of them, for they were all wrong; and the Personage who addressed me said that all their creeds were an abomination in his sight; that those professors were all corrupt; that: “they draw near to me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me, they teach for doctrines the commandments of men, having a form of godliness, but they deny the power thereof.”
20 He again forbade me to join with any of them; and many other things did he say unto me, which I cannot write at this time. When I came to myself again, I found myself lying on my back, looking up into heaven. When the light had departed, I had no strength; but soon recovering in some degree, I went home. And as I leaned up to the fireplace, mother inquired what the matter was. I replied, “Never mind, all is well—I am well enough off.” I then said to my mother,
Warning to all LDS members finally wishing to leave MORMONism: you WILL be shunned and ostracized for no longer siding with the Failed Prophecies of Joseph Smith.
Ooooo no!!!! Not the scary progressives....
You don’t have to participate in the thread if you don’t want to. Some folks have way toooo thin a skin
Resty, just because someone doesn’t agree with the LDS doesn’t automatically make them “anti”. The host’s wife and daughters are still on the rolls of the LDS church and his wife still attends their old ward with her mother.
You really should watch the show before you make comments like that.

WHOA, Resty!
This is a PRO-MORMON thread.
Out of great love, we want EVERY MORMON to
have eternal life through Jesus Christ.
We want EVERY MORMON to be set free from a life
of slavery to the BORG and to understand GRACE.
We want EVERY MORMON to come to know the real
God, who is revealed in the BIBLE - and not
the substitute gods that mormonism teaches.
That includes YOU too, Resty!
Best,
