  • Someone calling himself Brother Paul left a post on my site yesterday and I want to respond to it here. The quote from Paul is apparently an attempt to do some xanga proselyting for the mormon church. It sounds very much like a quote from a mormon church leader at one of their conferences, delivered with the dispassionate monotone I remember so well.

    Having been in the mormon church myself, having been a stake missionary, a card-carrying, temple-attending molly mormon in my day, (yup, even baked my own bread) I advise you to maintain your allegiance to Jesus Christ alone and not be led astray by wolves in lambs' clothing.

    The truth is that I did not know Jesus Christ when I was in the mormon church, but I did still long for God and for a relationship with Jesus Christ. It was He who led me out. I have no doubt that there are people in that milieu who are earnestly seeking God and think they have found Him, who think that by obedience to the church and its leaders that they are being faithful to God, to Christ. It just ain't so, folks. I know whereof I speak. Mormonism is not Christianity. It isn't. Their religion is based very much on masonic ideas, the temple based on masonic rites.  Been there, done that, had to be redeemed, cleansed, curses broken, the whole nine yards.

    Don't know enough about mormons  to give a yay or nay here.  I agree with you that there are honest seekers there as there are in every church.  ryc, it was a gross happening but that is what life without Christ is like.

    That is good news. We have Mormon neighbors they're pretty friendly, but I have no clue what Mormonism is like.

    I was Catholic and I redeemed myself of that too. My interest grew when I get to witness these types of Christians by the way they see life and God, their visions and the way they explain the Word of God and the true salvation that I have never ever heard in my life as a Catholic, even in school salvation came based by good works and nothing about Faith, we were never told about that.

    The church is all too corrupted by devil's vile sway and mass deception. Now people are using Christianity as a fad some type of social gathering that is anything but Christian.

    This is why I prefer Christianity not as a religion.

    One hard almost impossible detail I think is loving people, because I personally find this world full of it. And hating these people for me is like turning the light switch on. I try not to hate and believe me I'm not hateful by nature or appearance I tend to hide it, but nevertheless hate all the same. Unbelievers are just too damn proud it is pathetic.

    The friend I have been praying for for so long has succumbed to the image of the perfect EMIC woman.  You know what that's like.  And that doesn't jive with what God's been telling me about her and what to pray for.  We lost today, but I don't have to like it.

    Thank you.  I'll be fine.  The Nation of the Underground Conference starts Thursday and it's good for people who are beaten up and burned out.  I'm sure by Sunday, I'll be refreshed and ready to resume the battle, and this time, our side will win, even if I have to plant thorazine gas canisters in the A/C system at EMIC just to shut them up!

    Oh, just read your blog.  You and Trish should compare notes.  Her boss in Orlando was a Mormon, and Trish was one of the few evangelicals to treat him with any courtesy, which had a profound impact.

    I got that guys little quote.  Didn't notice all the mormon stuff until I went back a second time to see what it was all about.  Thankfully I know enough about mormonism not to go for it, but good to see what you thought for reassurance.
