FYI there is no perfect church on earth only in Heaven no man has got it all down, Jesus died on the cross because we fail miserable at life

This thread is asking you to visit the church you are voting to run the country -no right, wrong, accusing , really asking you to get out of your box 1 hour of one day for a decision that effects us all.

If you are not voting, dont go to church, then ignore this thread

'VOTE'...'VOTING'...'VOTERS'...none of these words are in the KJV Bible!

You would all know this deception, if you READ your Bibles and were 'seeking the truth'.

Almost everyone knows to beware of the Jehovah’s Witness; but, the Mormons are different, they lure people in by claiming to be a Christian organization, and by their claim to be family oriented, and their friendly masquerade of kindness and love. Keep in mind they only "claim" to be a Christian organization.

The reason they say this is because they think that if you believe in Christ then you are a Christian, when in fact this is not true at all, because Satan and his demons believe in Christ, but that does not make them Christians now does it. They claim this while secretly in there doctrine the call our Christian churches the whore of Babylon, and Christian preachers, heretic disciples of Satan.

They believe that we are the occult and not them. The Mormons are very powerful in the world today and have Power because of their wealth. The Marriott Hotel chain is owned by the Mormon Church, and there is Mormon Literature in every room.

Mormons are very affluent with the dead. They claim to be visited regularly by dead family members. They are being deceived By demons. They actually believe that through prayer, these people can receive salvation even in death. They associate very much with the dead. The Pastor of the First Satanic Church, and the author of the Satanic Bible, is Anton LaVey. In his Satanic Bible, LaVey lists, under "In fernal Names," one of them as "Mormo," which is the God of the living dead, and the king of the Ghouls.

The followers of Mormo, are called Mormons. Take that and chew on it a while. Coincidence? I don’t think so. The Mormon Church is the owner of the largest Genealogy center in the world, and they deal directly with the dead ancestors of the living. Mormon missionaries have had a hard time witnessing in China, and it is not because of it’s communists rule. It is because the word Mormon in Chinese means Gates of Hell.

Clip. AC above..
The people in Israel didn't pick their king. They asked for one. But they didn't pick him. The king was chosen by God.


Maybe in part the OP and this AC are intuitive about the uniqueness of The Mormon fath.



Maybe all voters should know this about the Book of Mormon...

2 Nephi 10

10 But behold, this land, said God, shall be a land of thine inheritance, and the Gentiles shall be blessed upon the land.

 11 And this land shall be a land of liberty unto the Gentiles, and there shall be no kings upon the land, who shall raise up unto the Gentiles.


This is about America, the Gentiles are the Europeans.

Member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints here!

Term Mormon..


Mormon was a Nephite Prophet, a general record keeper, and abrider of part of the Book of Mormon.

Thus the nick name.


The Book of Mormon is an abridged account of God's dealings with the ancient inhabitants of the American Continent from 2247 B.C. To 421 A.D.

As a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints..

I understand that their are many many false ideas, rumors Ect about my Church.

But please, let Mitt Romeny's life tell the story of who he is. Would you deem the way he has conducted his life to be worthy of the Presidency?



If you want to know more about his Church, I agree, go visit the Church personally.

 Quoting: Goofy for God

Are you an LDS member or attend an LDS church? I ask because it gets to the heart of your question.
 Quoting: SoulWinner




I do not want a Theocracy based government, and I believe that happens when we legislate our nation with Christian Doctrine. We are slowly encroaching into a realm very similar to Sharia Law, Christian-style. The Bible says and eye for an eye...and it also says to turn the other cheek. Which would we obey if we were to instill Christian Law?
I do not believe that worshipping God in any form is wrong; I do not believe that we should name Him for no name could compare. Allah, God, YHWH, Gesu Cristo, Jesus, Buddha, Shiva, Kali, or any other name, when believing in Goodness (not Righteousness), doesn't matter.

There is one God and He is the Unnamed God...the God of all names and faces; of all colors and shapes. This is not New Age bull-shit. I believe that Jesus spoke of a law of Man that was very different from the Old Testament laws. The New Testament speaks of forgiveness, praying to God in the Our Father prayer (notice Jesus did not say his name in that prayer, only to pray to Our Heavenly Father), to not cast stones, to not make Judgement of people which you are not good enough to make.

I don't care, short of some baby-sacrificing Satanist Church, what religion my president is. I want a President that does what he says; to stick with his opinions and not change them depending on the crowd; to place the welfare of the American people over other nations; to make sure our children are fed, our soldiers are home, our elderly given proper care.

I want a President, not a Christian.

BTW, personal info:
My mother was raised LDS, my brother, father and I were raised Methodist, my paternal grandmother was raised Southern Baptist, my paternal grandfather Roman Catholic (Bavarian father and Sicilian mother, he had no choice).
I've been Christian, Agnostic, Athiest, and back to Agnostic.
I have no question that God exists, or that His glory has created our world, but neither do I question Science. Science, in my opinion, proves God's existence. I think Christianity, as well as other Organized Religions, is blasphemous in that it seeks to speak God's Command, while ignoring His Commandments.
I think the Bible is a mix of truth and lies and do not believe in it's Divinity.
I follow Jesus, and find him to be the Son of God...but only in that we are all the Sons and Daughters of God. We speak of being Children in Christ, and yet we behave so un-Christlike.

The wonderful fact that Romney will be elected means there will be no more homosexual marriages. BUT...on the other hand...women better get used to sharing their husbands. Romney might make it legal for a man to have six or seven wives. Won't that be wonderful? I, as a woman, think so. That way we will only have to have sex every week or so. I think that sounds like heaven. LOL, just kidding.

History was made when President Obama was elected, and history will be made if Romney is elected, I am not endorsing either one in this post.
The challenge is this, if you are going to vote for Romney and you have never gone to a service of the Church of Mormons , GO BEFORE YOU VOTE. Voting for a person to lead our country is one of the most important things we do and it is so hard to really know that person as we know.

I have been in almost every Denomination of Church there is, except, Latter Day. I studied the history , went to Salt Lake, but my spirit was uncomfortable with that practice.

Just like in marriage , when you marry someone you also marry their family, when you vote for someone it is not just a person , but their family, their beliefs and this is huge.

By going you will feel good or at least some what educated about your vote, there is lot of ugliness in politics and I have seen where most of you feel a uneducated person should not vote, so how educated are you, that are casting those stones.

God Bless

What surprises me, above all in a christian "religious" thread is: you're dicussing VOTING?

Are you forgetting that we are to pay Caesars thing to Ceasar, and God things to God?

And The Lord himself proclaimed that his flock was no part of this world - and you are actively supporting the system of mere men who can't even direct their own steps?

You are the Anti-Christs.

My brethren, in spirit (I hope) I implore you deeply reflect upon the words of the Lord, and ask yourselves what in Gods name you are doing here.

The reason I posted today is simple not sway , but ask voters to know we are in uncharted waters , so if you plan on voting for Romney, he is like 5 generation Mormon that is just a fact of who he is and his beliefs and church will go with him. If you have not gone to Mormon church go, every President of some kind of faith , think of how your faith leads your decisions, they will lead his, his church will be active in White House, who he places there to work with him.

Voting as part of an establishment of a Republic, a government that allowed moral agency to be exercised, so that people could choose between right and wrong is a good thing!

To the AC about voting please consider what a privilege it is to have your moral agency, use it in the voting box, enjoy the liberty of this land while it lasts.



As a member of the LDS faith I am blown away that people feel that the Latter Day Saint faith will now be the new law of the land?!

We believe at our foundation that Satan was a control freak who would take away your right to Choose. We are opposed to that plan!


Please understand we have a Spiritual President of our Church, his name is Thomas S Monson, he directs our affairs.

Mitt Romney is running for President of the United States under a Constitution of the United States.


When the Savior, Jesus Christ returns then we can hope for a perfect everything, political and spiritual. Mitt Romney is not Jesus, nor does my Church tell people to vote for him. We are given our free AGENCY to choose for ourselves and support the Constitutional System in place, A REPUBLIC.

Christian churches are, in essence, equivalent. Most preach hope in the future, god's goodness, and stoicism in the face of life's uncertainty. With those common elements, Mormons are fine. If you have met them personally, you know what I mean. (Same can probably be said of typical parishioners in Obama's church.) The dogma or creation stories are not central.

Op

First, I am sorry to keep posting on this thread..


I guess I wanted to answer things that are not correct. As I should this Church is MY Church.


Op not all 15 million LDS saints will vote for Romney. We house Republicans and Democrats. More LDS membership outside the US than inside the states.

We are only counseled to use our best judgments..



I get what you are trying to say about checking things out first hand.
