@TheExBeliever I always wonder why we trust most modern science theories in the first place. Take carbon dating for example. Very cool technology for sure, but runs into major obstacles when you get down to the "science" if it.
@davidHenkel20 I dont deny that at all, but that does not say that the fall did not need to happen. Adam was given 2 commandments and he disobeyed 1. In your theology, just like mine, God knew what He would do. Does that mean He set Adam up to fail? No, so stop with these stupid games.
@davidHenkel20 Now who is playing word games. You just interpreted the LDS belief how you want to. We know that God knew what was going to happen in the Garden, and allowed it so that, as the is written, men might have joy.
Now where is the scripture that says the Fall did not need to happen?
@davidHenkel20@DiscipleFidei You still havent given a verse stating that the fall didnt need to happen.
You stated that I believe that God set up the fall. I do not.
I do believe because of the fall that Man can progress. Also that because of the fall a savior is necessary for man to be redeemed.
@robezenk@Primary_Pianist You could say Henotheism, like in the Bible.
In all my sunday school lessons i have had a lesson about a formal mortal alien name elohim.
Now the Hebrew word for God is Elohim, also the name for angels, or gods. Is that where tou got it from?
@hvworlton@Emet_or_Death@Primary_Pianist I only told one person on my mission that I was from St. George. After that I only told people I was from Las Vegas because that was a place they understood. It makes sense that the bool of mormon says Jerusalem because that was understood as where their forefathers came from.
@JBelcourt73@Primary_Pianist Acts 11:26 say when the disciples first were called Christians. If they are disciples then we know from John 13:35 who are the diciples. Now we can go further in and talking about baptism fulfilling all righteousness, but then we would need to go into authority to baptize.
@davidHenkel20@DiscipleFidei Fibe! I yeild. You believe the natural man is the full corruptig of humanity. I believe it to be sinful nature. Now where does it say the fall didnt need to happen?
@davidHenkel20@DiscipleFidei Ok, you dont understand my theology. They are the same. You have read Mosiah correct? Well guess what, it says it is because of the fall just like your theology says. This is no longer comical, it is just plain stupid how much you dont want them to be similar.
