The Rebranding of Latter-Day Saints to a Christian Denomination: How Should Christians Respond?

@UtahCollegeReps Nope

[Brookes August @Brookesaugust]

Christian Science, Jehovah’s Witness shouldn’t be on this list either.

[Mike Lee @BasedMikeLee]

Can anyone tell me why The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints was left out of the list of Christian churches?

[Brookes August @Brookesaugust]

@BasedMikeLee Because Mormons believe a different gospel.

They believe a different Jesus.
Believe a different Trinity.
Believe a different eternity.

Weird hill I’ll die on: if you’re a pastor in ministry, you should use an iPhone so group messages actually work. Don’t be that one guy who turns the group message green.

For all the parents out there dealing with a decision... let me give you another perspective

In 2018 my wife and I went in for our 20? week ultra sound at Beth Israel in Boston... the rep was very quiet the whole time, something seemed off. My wife & I were first time parents... didn't have much context. The doctor pulled us into her office and told us our sons nuchal fold was abnormally large... she went on to say there is a significant increased chance of Down Syndrome and even Turner's syndrome... talked about options to terminate the pregnancy. My wife was inconsolable, rightly so ... even thinking about it now brings back a lot of heavy emotions because of how hard of a day it was... hard...

I did a lot of research on the topic ... my wife & I prayed non stop about it. All we could do. The doctors wanted to do an amniocentesis which has its own host of risks..run more tests...

We came to the conclusion, which was not easy... it didn't matter... no amnio, no more tests.... I felt in my soul the Lord's plan was perfect and if our son was going to have Down Syndrome we would love him and shepherd him through this world the best we could. We get what we get. Anything from the Lord was a BLESSING and I was not going to point my finger at Him

Fast forward to today... our son is going to be 8 in the fall. He is perfect. Just hit a homerun the other day... a much better baseball player than I was at his age. My best friend

I share this deeply personal story for nothing more than to give just ONE parent hope... the Lord's plan is perfect... stay the course

Serious thought: if you believe the demonic is real and can really influence our world, what percentage of these “pre-birth diagnosis of Downs” are not actually a baby with Downs but instead manipulated by the demonic in order to illicit an abortion?

[Collin Rugg @CollinRugg]

YouTuber Jesse Ridgway and his wife abort their child after finding out the baby had Down syndrome.

Ridgway cited that they chose to kill the baby after deciding that he and his wife didn't want to be inconvenienced with a child with Down syndrome.

"Things have been pretty dark for a while for us, and we felt this was gonna be a nice little ray of sunshine, and it's not."

Horrific and selfish.

An estimated 67% - 85% of pregnancies in the U.S. with a Down syndrome diagnosis are aborted.

This is evil. Don't let anyone convince you otherwise.

@JennMGreenberg Not to be overly judgmental but… Naps do wonders (almost always the common denominator between frantic and less frantic kids)

Also… always loosen the seat belt when you take the kid OUT so it’s easy to get them back in. My wife never loosens it and it drives me crazy!

This baby went from sad/confused to absolute JOY the second those glasses went on.
First time seeing the world clearly. That smile says everything.
♥️ Heart = melted.
Who else is obsessed with these moments?

After 12 years of separation/divorce, @rdwolgemuth’s sister and her husband were reunited in marriage last week. Their 4 kids, 12 grands, and 100s of guests celebrated this miracle. Most moving wedding I’ve attended. Such grace. He is a redeeming God, making all things new. 🙌💞

“How’s your daughter doing?”

“Oh we’re so proud of her. She’s a milk spitter down at that trendy cafe.”

😳 A bar in Osaka has introduced a special service: a visitor can order coffee, and the waitress will add milk to it by spitting it from her mouth.
