“...., since they start with being created as a spirit who comes to earth.

In Mormonism, Spirit Beings are eternal and are not created, but have existed forever. It is NOT Biblical in the least, in THAT you are so correct.”

..............................

CC - my understanding of the heresy of mormonism is that people are first spirits who result from the celestial sex between Heavenly Father and one of the Heavenly Mommas [”Oooo, look at her! She’s heavenly!!”]

You are writing that spirits are eternal. Can you reconcile these two thoughts?

PS - thanks for responding.

I think Reaganaut did a fine job in the preceding post when she stated that spirit children were born to heavenly father and heavenly mother. However, the ‘intelligences’ that make up our soul/psyche are NOT created, they existed forever.

Also God cannot create or destroy matter (He is not omnipotent in Mormonism) - He can only ‘organize it’.

I was confused - what is the difference between intelligence and spirit anyway? I always did have problems with Mormon theology.
