Hey all, I'm finally back. Thank you to all who kept leaving me such encouraging messages, they really meant a lot to me!! Some of you recently sent me PM's that I have not answered yet, but I will either today or tomorrow. I have been in kind of a wierd place in my life lately, just not having any desire or inspiration at all to be on the Stream. I can't explain why (as I don't understand myself). I have cruised by everyone's site though, keeping up with you all.
Anyway, I have recently joined a discussion board on a wonderful Christian site at www.carm.org
Most of you know the passion and love I have for God and the Truth. This place provides a wonderful chance to spread the Truth to many other religions. I pretty much started in Mormonism after I signed on. I know there are many on here who believe in the LDS god, so I decided to post here what I first posted on Carm's site. Let me know what you think:
"In quite a few threads I have seen a few
people who seem to be "on the fence" with their religion in Mormonism
and wondering what the "truth" is. I have done a few studies over the
last few days, and I would like to share with everyone what I have
found so far. And to see what answers I met get back....
The God of the Bible is not the god of Mormonism. I know of no way to
put this any more "nicer" than that. (Now please understand, the fact
that I show no respect for the religion of LDS does not mean that I
don't respect any of you. I believe you are merely deceived). To make
such an assertion like that, one might need some proof, right??
Well, Joseph Smith started the LDS church because he said God told him
that no religion was right anymore. That everyone had changed the Bible
in some form or another. And according to Smith, God gave him the true
word (BoM). This is probably the first and biggest problem I have with
LDS.
There are numerous verses in the Bible we can look at that sate just
how precious God's words are, how true they are, how sharp they can be,
etc..
The Bible is filled with so many verses about His word that I cannot
print them all here (sake of time). We know that God holds His Word
above all else. God promised to keep His Word for us.
Psalms 119:160 " Thy word is true from the beginning: and every one of thy righteous judgments endureth for ever."
(This one is one of my favorites) Isaiah 40:8 "The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the word of our God shall stand forever." (bold is my doing)
"Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.
For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of
grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away; But the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you." I Peter 1:23-25
The way I see it, if it was true, if not one person had kept the true Word
of God, then God's Word did not endure forever as stated. Even if it
were only for 5 minutes, God's Word was not kept true. Smith is calling
God a liar, maybe not intentionally, but look at the verses for
yourselves.
We know God cannot lie, what God says, God does. Period. So now I pose
this question. We know one of these must be lying and if God cannot
lie, who is left??
If Smith lied, that would make him a false prophet. False prophets do not serve the one true God. If they did they would be true prophets. It really is just that simple.......
I plan on doing more, (I have a ton of stuff) but for sake of time I must stop here....
Let me know what you think.........

Hey all, I just wanted to pop in real quick and let you all know what's going on.....
I am going to take a little break for now, from my posts.....
I don't know how long really, I just need to get some things done and some other things sorted out in my head. Nothing "bad" has taken place, I just find myself in a sort of "melon-collie" state the last few days and I need to try and discover why..........
I am still praying for you all, everyday. I'll be checking in, as I get time, to everyones blog as I want to stay updated (don't know if I'll leave comment or not as of yet).
Please know I am still around, you can send me an e-mail if you have my addy (PM me and I will give it to you), and if any of you need me to pray about something, please let me know. Even though I won't really be posting, I still want to be there for all I can....
For the new people that have visited my blog lately, sorry we have met at this time, I promise I will get by your sites soon!!
You guys have all been wonderful to me and I thank you so much for that, hopefully it won't take me long to work things out.....
Till sometime further down the road,
Rev
