So is your purpose in this lengthy reply to demonstrate that you are educating people on the evils of Mormonism?

[Colofornian]

So through your witness, you’ve “saved” at least three FReepers from Mormonism?

In my last post to you, I said exactly the opposite: Only God saves... (It's the Mormons who claim to be literal "saviors" of men... see Are Mormon people LITERAL saviors of dead Jews, others? (The OTHER World Series: Vanity)

And...I never claimed to be the ONLY FREEPER witnessing to Mormons. That's your reductionism.

His politics. He has no religion. Jesus Himself had a statement concerning individuals such as him.I believe it is in the Book of Matthew.

Moderators cannot enforce "do not post to me" requests.

If you do not wish to correspond with another Freeper onthread, then simply ignore him/her.

Typical....

Another obsessed one who feels it is their mission to destroy Mormonism in toto. Also can’t understand that Romney lost and isn’t coming back so they waste their time slamming him - all in the most Christian manner.

Who cares?

Works for me!

MormonISM IS a satanic heresy.

My 'purpose' is to show the rank HYPOCRACY of the religious organization known colloquially as MORMON.

I did a purtty good job; didn't I!

[Elsie]

Thanks!

Yah; we ALL thought that after 2008, but that loser DID 'come back'!

All along I've been led to believe that Zombies did NOT exist!

Yup; pointing out DECEIVED individuals that can cause others to lose THEIR way is a Christian thing to do.

Here is MORMONism's own creed:

Articles of Faith

The Articles of Faith outline 13 basic points of belief of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
The Prophet Joseph Smith first wrote them in a letter to John Wentworth, a newspaper editor,
in response to Mr. Wentworth's request to know what members of the Church believed.
They were subsequently published in Church periodicals.
They are now regarded as scripture and included in the Pearl of Great Price.

 

THE ARTICLES OF FAITH
OF THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST OF LATTER-DAY SAINTS
History of the Church, Vol. 4, pp. 535—541

 

 

1. We believe in God, the Eternal Father, and in His Son, Jesus Christ, and in the Holy Ghost.
   
2. We believe that men will be punished for their own sins, and not for Adam's transgression.
   
3. We believe that through the Atonement of Christ, all mankind may be saved, by obedience to the laws and ordinances of the Gospel.
   
4. We believe that the first principles and ordinances of the Gospel are: first, Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ; second, Repentance; third, Baptism by immersion for the remission of sins; fourth, Laying on of hands for the gift of the Holy Ghost.
   
5. We believe that a man must be called of God, by prophecy, and by the laying on of hands by those who are in authority, to preach the Gospel and administer in the ordinances thereof.
   
6. We believe in the same organization that existed in the Primitive Church, namely, apostles, prophets, pastors, teachers, evangelists, and so forth.
   
7. We believe in the gift of tongues, prophecy, revelation, visions, healing, interpretation of tongues, and so forth.
   
8. We believe the Bible to be the word of God as far as it is translated correctly; we also believe the Book of Mormon to be the word of God.
   
9. We believe all that God has revealed, all that He does now reveal, and we believe that He will yet reveal many great and important things pertaining to the Kingdom of God.
   
10. We believe in the literal gathering of Israel and in the restoration of the Ten Tribes; that Zion (the New Jerusalem) will be built upon the American continent; that Christ will reign personally upon the earth; and, that the earth will be renewed and receive its paradisiacal glory.
    
11. We claim the privilege of worshiping Almighty God according to the dictates of our own conscience, and allow all men the same privilege, let them worship how, where, or what they may.
    
12. We believe in being subject to kings, presidents, rulers, and magistrates, in obeying, honoring, and sustaining the law.
    
13. We believe in being honest, true, chaste, benevolent, virtuous, and in doing good to all men; indeed, we may say that we follow the admonition of Paul—We believe all things, we hope all things, we have endured many things, and hope to be able to endure all things. If there is anything virtuous, lovely, or of good report or praiseworthy, we seek after these things.

And, anyone curious about MORMONism can start here; a wonderful list of links compiled by a Mormon who, apparently, no longer posts in these religion discussions. (Probably has realized that Mitt ain't coming back.)

I miss ol' PD!

HE was about useless when it came to defending his faith; but at LEAST he had a bunch of links that showed interested people where to find the MILK of MORMONism...

I was wrong AGAIN!!!

Looks like the last radar contact for ol’ PD was in 2011

[IronJack]

Are you proud of that?

“Do you see your efforts as doing God’s work?

In the course of the last several years, have at least three FREEPER Mormons become true Christians? (Answer: Yes) “

Only three? Somehow I think you are creating more enemies than converts.

No offense to any Mormons here, but I could care less about the Mormon faith. With that said I find your threads/rants hostile and provocative. I have to say if I was a Mormon this tactic would not persuade me to convert.

I suggest if you want more converts, more than three, you try a new game plan.
