@benbernards Same musical, different moment...
By the witness of the martyrs
By the passion and the blood
God has raised you out of darkness
I have saved your soul for God
@Bemorte Partially agree, BUT I submit that a period of sober reflection, study, and prayer is required if one is going to publicly disagree with someone one truly believes is a prophet of God. Tweeting negative comments within moments of a talk does not seem to meet that requirement.
@Bemorte When I read this sort of comment I always wonder why the commentator is watching GC if they don't believe in prophets, seers, and revelators. If these are the words of prophets they are de facto divine guidance. If they are not, why bother with them?
@seagulljaap Agree. Not just atheist ex-Mormons, but so many ex-Mormons in general. Joseph Smith famously noted that they can leave the Saints, but they can't leave the Saints alone. Just let me be happy, please. Move on and be happy your own way.
@seagulljaap Using the cross as the symbol of Christ emphasizes His death more than what is really important: that He overcame death to save us from it. It is not just blah blah Mormon cultural overreach, it is actual doctrine from the living prophets. New Era, September 1996, Q&A
