As to your question No. Because beyond a shadow of doubt that the Creator is real. It's supernatural and nothing these things do or say can change my experience with God. Test all spirits if they deny God they are against him and against humanity. |

Why?? Are you saying God could not have created them? If he can create us, he can create anything or anyone he wants to... on any world in the Cosmos.. What makes you think we are his only creation here on Earth? The same God that placed himself into the body of an earth man and had himself crucified to save his fellow earth-men from sin and is currently throwing all unbelievers into eternal hell? Not likely. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 3558872 Soon we will be visited by 'supernatural' persons, claiming to be our creators, performing miracles, and demanding to be worshipped....people have claimed this in the past and will again in the future. God knew this so he gave us a warning thru the apostle Paul of what to do. Here it is. Galations 1:3b-9 "...our Lord Jesus Christ Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father: To whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen. I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you that that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed." Answer: Don't believe them, don't worship them, let God curse them. On the money!!! This is the true answer. If you break my wings, I will just find a cloud and learn to fly again. The Lord will catch you when you fall or teach you to fly! May the footprints I leave lead you to BELIEVE. |

Since our dna goes back to Adam and Eve we all have that original sin. Which meant that all people after Adam and Eve would go to Hell and Death would claim them. So God came in flesh to remove that curse of the original sin away. Died went into hell to remove all the people that were bound there because of original sin.

So he expects you his image to be Godly as he is. Not act like animals. You have two natures and that is due to original sin. To act like an animal (sinful nature). Or (Divine nature) Spirit. If you come to God he fills you with his spirit that you and him would as one. In other words he brings you into his godhead. Someone made of clay by Gods spirit he bring you to himself.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 17593711 United States 12/10/2012 08:25 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | As a Mormon, we believe that this earth is one of countless worlds created by God, and that we do in fact have extraterrestrial brothers and sisters. However these other beings are also created of God, and also, in his image. Meaning: they also are human beings. It states in the book of Revelation that God would send a strong delusion, to create a means by which the faithful would stand by the "truth" they claim to believe - or fall prey to this "strong delusion". Also remember that Jesus Christ stated in the New Testament "other sheep have I, which are not of this fold." We Mormons believe that Christ died for the atonement and salvation of ALL of God's children - those on this earth, and also other worlds. The reason Jesus Christ was born into mortality on this world, to fulfill the plan of salvation designed by God, was because THIS world was the most evil of all the worlds of God's creation; the only world evil enough to kill their own savior. So as a Christian generally and a Mormon specifically, an alien encounter seems not only possible, but maybe even likely. I can't fathom how the majority of people will follow the antichrist willingly without a strong delusion that has reason and logic behind that delusion. As for me, the appearance if a true offworld race of beings will only strengthen my beliefs and help me resist the urge to fall prey to the delusion - one we have been warned will indeed come. |
