@jonathanplumb Yes, many will make it. This glorifies God, to have children like He is. To be a God of gods is the ultimate.

@seanryanlayton Yeah but why cast your pearls?

@JohnCTokalenko @TheGermanicist Bethlehem was about 6 miles away from Jerusalem. Please tell me this is not the hill you are fighting on John

[G @uptimecontinuum]

@JohnCTokalenko @TheGermanicist What's the problem here? Matthew 1:20 basically says the same thing.

@TruthJourneySW @ryanswalters73 John 10:16. I Didn't add anything or subtract. That's what it says. Relax.

[G @uptimecontinuum]

@JW_Lumley @KorribanSociety But you are a bit contentious Josh. Very un-Christian.

[G @uptimecontinuum]

@TruthJourneySW @ryanswalters73 Common misunderstanding but no, the other sheep are of the House of Israel.

[G @uptimecontinuum]

@TruthJourneySW @ryanswalters73 John 10:16 And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.

@pricekris2005 @j_divis You bring up a good point, that Grace doesn't just save us but it changes us so we become "new creatures" and are better people with good inclinations.
Let's just leave it at that. We got some differences but we have a lot in common too.🫡

[G @uptimecontinuum]

@pricekris2005 @j_divis So let me ask you:
We agree we are saved by Grace. Fine.
You say Grace alone?
Does this mean we don't need to do anything?
What about keeping the commandments? or good works.
I can lie cheat and steal but thru the Grace of the Lord I am saved?

@pricekris2005 @j_divis "Not only did Joseph say he received new revelation, but he said he needed to RESTORE a new church because the faith of the apostles had died..Got it.
Joseph Smith never said the faith of the apostles had died.

[G @uptimecontinuum]

@pricekris2005 @j_divis No wait, I'm getting a little confused lol. Hold on.

[G @uptimecontinuum]

@pricekris2005 @j_divis Acts 2:38 Peter commands the people to repent and be baptized. Acts 2:41 about 3,000 people were baptized. Acts 9:18 Paul is baptized and many other examples of this ordinance are given in Acts.

[G @uptimecontinuum]

@pricekris2005 @j_divis Where did Joseph Smith say he needed to create a new church because the faith of the apostles had died?
Matthew 16:18 The word Rock is used for priesthood. ..the gates of hell shall not prevail against the priesthood. "Preserve" is not used btw.

[G @uptimecontinuum]

@pricekris2005 @j_divis The Isaiah verses in the B of Mormon are more clear, there are no contradictions. John 1:1? What contradiction? Gal 1:8 Paul is saying if any man or angel preach any other gospel.. let him be accursed. Joseph Smith taught the same gospel of Christ Paul did

[G @uptimecontinuum]

@pricekris2005 @j_divis Some of the Isaiah verses may by a little different. What else?

[G @uptimecontinuum]

@RealDarylJames @hvworlton @Primary_Pianist I think the basic doctrine is the same but you're right, the Book of Mormon doesn't mention everything we practice in the church today. I don't think anyone said it did.

[G @uptimecontinuum]

@abby_palmer1 @Other_Sheep_ This judgement at death is not the final judgement. And baptism is absolutely required for those who desire the highest heaven

[G @uptimecontinuum]

@RealDarylJames @hvworlton @Primary_Pianist Is this a problem for you?
