Fauci committed so many evil crimes

[DNI Tulsi Gabbard @DNIGabbard]

Today, on my final day as Director of National Intelligence, I’m releasing never-before-seen communications and documents exposing how Dr. Fauci provided millions in US taxpayer dollars to fund dangerous gain-of-function research at the Wuhan lab, worked with politicized elements within the Intelligence Community to suppress the truth about his actions and hide the virus’ lab-leak origins, and lied to Congress while under oath in 2024. It’s time you know the truth.

Kind of sounds like 3 degrees of glory.

Irenaeus- Against Heresies (Book V, Chapter 36)
2. [They say, moreover], that there is this distinction between the habitation of those who produce an hundred-fold, and that of those who produce sixty-fold, and that of those who produce thirty-fold: for the first will be taken up into the heavens, the second will dwell in paradise, the last will inhabit the city; and that was on this account the Lord declared, “In My Father's house are many mansions.” The presbyters, the disciples of the apostles, affirm that this is the gradation and arrangement of those who are saved, and that they advance through steps of this nature; also that they ascend through the Spirit to the Son, and through the Son to the Father

@KatiePavlichNN @JoshTBoswell How about divide $3.7 million by 14 years = less than $265,000 a year in salary or reimbursement, big freakin’ deal dude. I’m a hardcore conservative but don’t attack the wifey over legit lawful activity.

For three Sundays in a row within the last few weeks, Harriet and I had the joyful privilege of participating in two stake center dedications and one temple dedication—first in Salzburg, Austria, then Prague, Czech Republic, and finally in the beautiful Willamette Valley of Oregon, where we dedicated a house of the Lord.

How beautifully these sacred places work together. In our meetinghouses each Sabbath day, we gather to worship God, strengthen one another, and serve as disciples of Jesus Christ. In the holy temple, that same work continues in an even more sacred and eternal way.

Each dedication has pointed to the same divine purpose of turning our hearts in worship to our Heavenly Father and to His Beloved Son, Jesus Christ.

Many of us, in moments of personal anguish, feel that God is far from us. The pavilion that seems to intercept divine aid does not cover God; it occasionally covers us.

God is never hidden, yet sometimes we are, covered by a pavilion of motivations that draw us away from God and make Him seem distant and inaccessible.

Our own desires, rather than a feeling of “Thy will be done” (Matthew 6:10), create the feeling of a pavilion blocking God. God is not unable to see us or communicate with us, but we may be unwilling to listen or submit to His will and His time.

We remove the pavilion when we feel and pray, “Thy will be done” and “in Thine own time.” His time should be soon enough for us since we know that He wants only what is best.

The Lord’s delays often seem long; some last a lifetime. But they are always calculated to bless. They need never be times of loneliness or sorrow or impatience.

Although His time is not always our time, we can be sure that the Lord keeps His promises. For any of you who now feel that He is hard to reach, I testify that the day will come that we all will see Him face to face.

Here’s a look inside the missionary assignment room.

This is where my fellow apostles and I come frequently to assign the thousands of missionaries that are applying to serve missions all over the world.

This process is inspired, revelatory, and I love it with all my heart.

How I have felt this week reading the comments to my posts.

[Jared Pierce @piercetribe]

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints generally teaches that the Protestant Reformers played an important role in God’s purposes, even though the Church does not believe they restored Christ’s original Church.

LDS leaders have often spoken respectfully of reformers such as:

Martin Luther
John Calvin
Huldrych Zwingli
John Wycliffe
William Tyndale

The LDS perspective is generally:

After the deaths of the apostles, there was a Great Apostasy, meaning priesthood authority and some doctrines were lost.
The Reformers recognized many problems in medieval Christianity and courageously worked to correct them.
They helped make the Bible more available, encouraged religious freedom, and weakened institutions that opposed further revelation.
However, because they did not possess restored priesthood authority, they were reformers, not restorers. According to LDS belief, the full restoration came later through Joseph Smith.
