@lcbchefperry @ThoughtfulSaint I have siblings who've taken a similar path. The church has a lot to improve still and I can sympathize with the reasons why some people choose leave.

God leads each of us on our own path. We each have to learn to hear his voice and follow the best we can. He looks on the heart

@lcbchefperry @ThoughtfulSaint Why would you send a child out into the world and take a chance at them not coming back? For their growth.

I don't know what the pre-mortal life was like and how that will compare to the different kingdoms of Glory. I believe that we will all agree that God is just in the end.

@jackbenimble84 @RykerJackson97 @DezGoth 1. It is their choice to serve. Some do, some don't. No one should be forced.
2. They are taught to invite. Anyone who pushes their beliefs onto others is doing it wrong.
3. Excusing this abusive behavior is not a good look for you

@realDrTT @jacksonfrandsen Thank you Trevor. The world needs more people like you.

[Nathan Packard @searchWhileTrak]

@lcbchefperry @ThoughtfulSaint Thanks for your thoughtful answer. We believe that we are all eternal intelligences who chose to come to earth so we could experience mortality and learn to choose God. I appreciate you sharing your perspective.

[Nathan Packard @searchWhileTrak]

@realDrTT Looks great!

@lcbchefperry @ThoughtfulSaint Why did God create people that He Himself claimed would've been good if they had not been born?:

'The Son of man goeth as it is written of him: but woe unto that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! it had been good for that man if he had not been born."

— Matthew 26:24

@Latterdaytruth What is the purpose of life? Why are we here?

[Nathan Packard @searchWhileTrak]

@realDrTT Thank you for your empathetic perspective. I'm sorry it's caused you some backlash.

@DustinDavis @nicoraytruth Yes, It's a church-owned ranch

@joshnaa2gez They demonstrate distinct agency in perfect, voluntary alignment with each other. The Godhead models eternal intelligences united in love, purpose, and covenant. Their oneness is chosen.

@BurgessOwens @Mormonger @Ch_JesusChrist Love this!

[Nathan Packard @searchWhileTrak]

@nicoraytruth You should! It was actually a really good thing for my son and daughter.

[Nathan Packard @searchWhileTrak]

@EWErickson Christ’s unity with the Father is chosen, not a metaphysical necessity.

Morality, love, and submission require a chooser facing genuine alternatives. When Christ prays, "not my will, but thine, be done", He shows genuine agency in perfect, voluntary alignment with the Father.

It was humbling to have the smallest taste of what they went through. It helped me appreciate what they did. We only went 28 miles, with good food, water, and trucks to transport tents and other equipment. They carried everything with them for 1,500 miles, without complaint.
