Today is my grandmother’s birthday (my mothers mother)

Although shes been dead for 50 years and died a well documented Christian no doubt she was dead dunked into Mormonism...

On my fathers side I have found his grandmother who died in 1945 and some of her forbears back a bit...

The Mormons have some erroneous info on this lady, my great grandmother, but they have refused over the years to change their records...

Regardless of the fact that I have correct and official documents they claim they never make any mistakes...

Members of her family have also been dead dunked, endowed, married, and sealed all the way dfown to all living descendants...

Since this happened to one of them in the 1950s and I was already born, that made me a living descendant, a Mormon according to the Mormon beliefs...

Well i dont want to be a Mormon...so that now makes me an “apostate”...

and that destines me to the Mormon so called “outer darkness”

SIGH

See how much easier it is just to believe in the REAL God...the LORD Jesus Christ and Him crucified ???

TN, I have to say it: I think you & Vendome are just gettin' a wee bit testy over the "benevolent" actions performed upon your soul by proxy Mormons.

(I may have to call upon Elsie's sidekick, Mormon Dude, to properly lecture you back into embracing 'The Principles')

Here, the Mormons have "redeemed" you (past tense)
via taking your soul into their temple care
[not sure how it is our so-called 'Gentile' souls are allowed into their temples, but our bodies are not]
And here you are already threatening "apostasy" from the Mormon camp!
Incredible! Incredulous!

Now, I know, I know. Some Lds reading this will object. They'll claim they are ONLY [think Mississippi accent as you read this] givin' us po' Gen-tiles a choyce to accept da Mormon 'gospel' on da udder side...

But to 'hear tell' their Mormon 'prophets' the choosin' & the redeemin' & the convertin's been dun!

"...I hope all of you will continue as long as you have any dead to redeem. Never cease that work while you have the power to enter into the Temple…I HAVE HAD some thousands redeemED here. I HAVE HAD baptisms, ordinations, washings and anointings, endowments and sealings for them, the same as if they were standing in the flesh themselves...I held the keys of their salvation…” (Lds "prophet" Teachings of Presidents: Wilford Woodruff, pp. 191-192)

Now, if Brother Woodruff's authority was good for the "average Mormon" to deem polygamy off limits in 1890 & beyond...
...Then Brother Woodruff's authority to say he HAS personally REDEEMED THOUSANDS of Gentiles as if he saved them "in the flesh"...
...[and he says he ordained them, washed them, anointed them, endowed them, and sealed them to boot as if they were there 'in the flesh']

...Then who are you TN to "go AWOL" on your bros from the pre-existence?

Repent, sister 'Nana, for the kingdom of the post- existence is at hand!
