That is very sad. I wish there was something that we could do.

I think it is possible. It is a very interesting thought. The fact is however that little is said about the wiseman. We don't even know the exact number. We usually say three just because there were three different gifts given but this does not mean that there were three wise man. We all...

I think when we are talking about baptism and everything in life in general we need to look at the example that Jesus Christ set for us. He was baptised simple as that. He was not an infant when he was baptised either. He was baptised by immersion in the river Jordan, not by sprinkling. In...

Ok I think we have a very similar view. I was describing the Lordship Salvation view on salvation. If you would like you can look it up on wikipedia and it will describe it to you, and you can see that I did give an accurate description of that particular viewpoint. And I am fully aware that...

Again I am sorry if it was inaccurate again it would be impossible to discuss all the different views in one forum. I merely choose the evangelical perspective that I was most familiar with. In your view what happens if someone who loves god and serves him for many years falls away from the...

Yes I understand that. I am sorry if it was inaccurate of your beliefs. There are many differing views in Christianity so it would be impossible to discuss them all in one forum. So I chose the one I was most familiar with.

True this is also a difference. And a big one I will agree it is right up there with the trinity. Where this thread is not aimed to discuss whether Joseph Smith was a prophet or not. Yes it is an untraditional belief but I don't see how it in anyway makes lds church members unchristian. Its...

Sorry everyone I have been away so long. I went home to my parents house for Christmas and New Years. Most mormons don't believe this either. It is obvious from your posting that you rely on anti mormon sources for your information. Just a quick thought if you wanted to learn about the...

No I don't consider catholics protestant. I am not expert on their views of salvation I just have the impression they rely on things like the sacrament and confession. Not entirely sure though.

In this thread I will attempt to contrast the view of mormons in regards to grace and works with that of most protestants. I am hesitant to do this in the regard that I understand there are many varying points among the protestant denominations and so I appologize upfront if you feel my...

I really admire the Bahai religion. I have read a lot I jut feel I am ready to begin to read some of what you consider scripture. Just wanting some advice on which one I should begin with and where I can find them and so on.

That is really sad. Is there anything being done so they can take internet classes from American universities. Though I am sure the Iranian government has already thought of that and done something to stop it. Just a thought.

I guess I am a little late but better late than never. I think inter faith is a wonderful thing. It helps you see how your own personal belief system is not the only way to spiritual enrichment. It open you up your understanding and it breeds respect for other beliefs. I think inter faith is...

I appreciate your posting. I really appreciate your postive non contenious attitude. I would point out however that some of those things on your list mormons also believe. So there are some similarities, but yes there are differences. We believe in the bible. We believe it to be the word of...

Now this is something that has been a hot topic. Especially while Mitt Romney was actively campaigning for president. His religion was something that was successfully used against him. I find this a very disturbing reality about how "open minded" us Americans are. So I wish to discuss the...

I believe that Jehovah's witness are Christians. I being mormon have also dealt with people telling me I am not Christian. First off I belive its people within a religious organization to define what ones religion is and isn't. Its not left up to someone outside the faith. The next thing all...

In my estimation Mormonism takes things too far especially when it depicts Jesus as being blond. Come on now. I've already corrected you on this point in a different thread, but here we go again. I am sorry but you really should do some research before you make such outlandish statements...

I am very aware that religous hatred is real. It is not however limited to religous people. Atheists I have meet at times have very strong feeling of hate towards religous people. Believe me as an lds missionary for two years I had three atheists that came up and spit in my face and told me...

I recently read a book written by a man named Walter Martin. It was titled Kingdom of the Cults. Its whole purpose was to expose all these dangerous religous movements. I am mormon and serving as and lds missionary I on occasion had people spit on me and tell me I was a member of a...

Well I have enjoyed reading everyones comment on this forum so far. I am a mormon and what I have read in posting so far is a accurate assumption of what we are. I had never heard of Ahmadiyyat before but I believe I need to research them and learn more. I also am not to familiar with Sikhs...
