The first two chapters of my new book are coming out this year! The book design and audio will be replaced once I get the artwork back.

This world is corrupted/cursed, God did not do this, the devil did. Faith is beliveing without evidence, we need to trust what he says about those who place their fiath in him. Nothing is impossable, for the who believe with out doubt. As a son of God, when I pray, my prayers get answered, because that is what Jesus said. I belive him, regardlees of what my eyes see. That is faith.

@elonmusk I think it would be helpful to develop detailed profiles for the main characters to ensure consistency. It seems like a lot of work! I don't have the patience for video, even though I spent 300 hours building a CRM last month, and I don't know any coding. AI is definitely fun.

Europeans and American patriots!

Tomorrow, the courts of my country, France, may decide to send me to prison for daring to say on television that “the main danger to women in France is Black African and Arab immigrant men.”

Meanwhile, my own attacker, a Tunisian migrant, is still at large.

I need your help to generate media pressure and hope to be acquitted.

They cannot silence the truth!

Thank you for your support 💪🏻🇫🇷

@Latterdaytruth Says who?

[Colonel Edward "Ed" Straker @Com_Straker]

@Latterdaytruth There's no debate, morons have never been or are Christians. You're not monotheistic. And why do you care? What's the big deal?

[Colonel Edward "Ed" Straker @Com_Straker]

@JenOliverQC You're not monothieist, therefore you're not a Christian.

[Colonel Edward "Ed" Straker @Com_Straker]

@BasedMikeLee You're not a monthesist, therefore you're not a Christian.

The idea that Jesus and Satan are spirit brothers comes from official teachings of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS), although it is often misunderstood or presented without context.

In LDS theology:

God the Father is the literal spiritual father of all spirits.
Jesus Christ was God's "Firstborn" spirit child and is unique because He is also the Only Begotten Son in the flesh.
Lucifer (Satan) was also created as a spirit son of God before his rebellion.
Therefore, Jesus and Lucifer are considered spirit brothers in the sense that all humans, angels, and spirits are children of God.

A commonly cited source is the LDS Church manual:

"Jesus Christ was the Firstborn of the spirit children of our Heavenly Father. He is our eldest brother and Lucifer's brother."
— Gospel Principles (1997 edition), Chapter 3
Another source is:

"The appointment of Jesus to be the Savior of the world was challenged by one of the other sons of God. He was called Lucifer."
— Pearl of Great Price, Moses 4:1–4

LDS apostle Bruce R. McConkie wrote:
"Christ and Lucifer are indeed offspring of our Eternal Father and therefore spirit brothers."

@Manhattva Religion yes, Christian no.

[Colonel Edward "Ed" Straker @Com_Straker]

@BuZMythic @SladeTheGuy @michaeljknowles God created everything, Jesus is God

[Colonel Edward "Ed" Straker @Com_Straker]

@ErinSpksLoudr You're not, get over it. And why do you want to be? Do your own thing. We believe Jesus is God Almighty, and you believe He is the brother of Satan.

The challenge of discussing beliefs with Mormons is that many seem unfamiliar with the Book of Mormon's teachings.

[Colonel Edward "Ed" Straker @Com_Straker]

@Latterdaytruth Tell the truth, do you believe Jesus is God Almighty or the brother of satan? Is there a heaven, or do you get your own planet to populate with virgins and the option to trade in your wife?

[Colonel Edward "Ed" Straker @Com_Straker]

@BasedMikeLee How about reading the Bible if you want to be a Christian, or reading the Book of Mormon if you want to be something else.

[Colonel Edward "Ed" Straker @Com_Straker]

@jakemmccleary You can't be both; one believes Jesus is Almighty God, and you believe Jesus is Satan's brother. The bible does not teach that.

[Colonel Edward "Ed" Straker @Com_Straker]

While Iran and Israel clash, the larger debate is happening on X. Mormons desperately seek to be recognized as part of Christianity, but many reasons prevent this. One major reason is their denial of Christ's Divinity. Although they argue, I've studied LDS beliefs, and they should do the same.

[Colonel Edward "Ed" Straker @Com_Straker]

@BasedMikeLee @merrynick13 No, they aren't, Mike, you're too smart to be that ignorant. I like you, but you need to do some real reading and research. LDS is far from Christian doctrine.

[Colonel Edward "Ed" Straker @Com_Straker]

@calvinrobinson Like most people, they are ignorant of what their religion teaches. People are lazy and do not read or study. And without the holy Spirit, blind. I could say the same for many Christians as well. Everyone wants hell insurance, but without fellowship with Jesus.
