@Agent8913@mormons_speak1@the_churchnews@BlackBlessedLDS "Something that vaguely represents JC" ...
Like the giant Christus statue in the Temple Square visitors center, using that same image in its logo, the name of the church literally including His name, or carving into stone that each temple is the House of the Lord? Vague indeed.
@MormonDisc There are 31,676 congregations worldwide. Each is led by a bishop or a branch president. This brother’s story, real and personal as it may be, represents only 0.0000315696% of the bishops currently serving, including me. “Rare” indeed.
@itschappy As a bishop, bless you for serving as Exec Sec. It's a ton of work, a ton of time, and too often thankless. But I can't tell you how grateful I am knowing my Exec Sec is always with me or on the other side of that door.
@TheGermanicist Years ago I lost it during an awful BYU football game in a bleak season. Yelling & pounding the glass in the loge suite I was in. I looked over & saw Elder Holland in the next box staring at me in stunned disbelief & disappointment. I’ve been calmer at sporting events ever since.
@moiraogreene@ldslaw@CultExpert Not true. I’m a bishop of a Latter-day Saint congregation. We have families we’re assisting with food, bills, or rent. There is no quid pro quo in order to receive assistance. We invite, but even if they choose not to come or serve we don’t turn our backs. We do it out of love.
@ChurchISChange@JordanGuatqui@ScripturePlus My evidence has nothing to do with anything I mentioned previously. My evidence comes from having read the Book of Mormon many times, what I’ve learned, what I’ve felt, & the relationship with God it has helped me to build. It’s changed me. God has changed me. That’s my evidence.
@ChurchISChange@JordanGuatqui@ScripturePlus None of that is evidence. Just baseless claims that there may have been a book or pamphlet, perhaps as far away as NYC, that Joseph may have accessed on a treasure hunt and then repurposed. Despite any primary sources to back any of that up.
