@TeeplesCY The strange thing about the video is that the Bishop himself was “the Church,” and by his own account he acted to protect the child. Therefore the church did right, thanks to this Bishop. One suspects he got proper guidance from the hotline.
@ryanreveley @ATrueMillennial became man that man might become god.” Gregory of Nyssa, Life of Moses: epektasis—endless ascent into God’s infinity. Origen: eternal progress/apokatastasis (Princ. 1–3).
@ryanreveley @ATrueMillennial Incorrect. Fathers taught deification by participation in divine life we “become gods” (2 Pet 1:4). Irenaeus, Adv. Haer. 5.pref.: “He became what we are to make us what He is.” Clement, Strom. 7.10: the obedient “are made gods while in the flesh.” Athanasius, De Incarn. 54: “God
@AniseNot The church website is best. Or call and ask for missionaries. Rampant opposition, smears, and twisting of LDS beliefs are evidence in favor rather than against. A church without truth wouldn’t receive so much mean-spirited opposition. People wouldn’t waste their time. Good luck!
@Scaramucci Trump should be thanking Powell for keeping inflation in check in the face of tariffs. Historically, rates follow the market. That means that if the Fed is consistent, they will not cut until the market is trending down.

@NoDisassemble5@religiongal Original garments went to the wrists and ankles. There have been modifications over time to comport with evolving clothing styles.
@LukeFHan@StateLutheran Christ “preached unto the spirits in prison” so they could “live according to God in the spirit” (1 Pet 3:18-20, 4:6), and baptism for the dead confirms the dead are not beyond redemption (1 Cor 15:29). This suggests the gospel plan covers those who died before Christ.
@AttorneyCrump It’s alarming how easily judges can now be confirmed without bipartisan support. Both parties share blame: Obama and Reid scrapped the 60-vote cloture rule, and Republicans extended it to SCOTUS. The result is an increasingly polarized judiciary and eroded trust in impartiality.
