You said: "Good job! There is no doubt that there were people in the New Testament that thought that the talking serpent was Satan. Apparently it was a secret that was kept from God too? LOL He never blamed Satan for the fall of Man in the Old Testament."

This, what you said can be classified under - Self Deception 101: How people reject the Word of God and are deceived by it.

What God said is TRUTH 101 = Revelation 12:7-9 and Revelation 20:1-2
So the great dragon was cast out, that serpent of old, called the Devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was cast to the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.

Then I saw an angel coming down from heaven with the key to the Abyss, holding in his hand a great chain.
He seized the dragon, that ancient serpent who is the Devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years.

This is where you currently are = "I am afraid, however, that just as Eve was deceived by the serpent’s cunning, your minds may be led astray from your simple and pure devotion to Christ" - 2 Corinthians 11:3

You said: "LOL He never blamed Satan for the fall of Man in the Old Testament."
This makes you a mocker of God as well for the LORD said:
You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out his desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, refusing to uphold the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, because he is a liar and the father of lies.

Being a mocker of the Word of God is a serious sin and you leave yourself open to satan in doing so.
Repent from this and turn your heart over to the LORD JESUS CHRIST for forgiveness and remission of your sins in order that you may receive the Promise of the Father.
It's ironic. How many Christians say, hath God said, not realizing they are quoting and repeating the doubt Satan sewed in Eve's mind regarding death. Yes shall not surely die. Only today they have extended Satan's authority not only with regards the state of the dead, but use his critical, hath God said, to the whole book of Genesis and creation, and the relevancy of the Ten Commandments.

David, the information Truth7t7 is copy/pasting here is grossly inaccurate. To touch on just 2 points:

Members of the Church of Jesus Christ 100% believe in the Bible, and Jesus Christ therein. Jesus Christ has always existed, in the 100% divine and only Son of God. The only Savior of the world.

God the Father is the spiritual Father of all. Which technically makes everyone spiritual siblings: you, me, Elvis, Hitler, Mother Teresa, etc. That by no means makes everyone the same level of righteousness—Mother Teresa and Hitler are extremely in that regard. And the two most extreme differences would be Christ (who’s all about the Father’s will being done) and Lucifer/Satan (whom led a rebellion against the Father). They could not be more different.
Mormons dont believe in God of the bible,they believe in Elohim from the planet Kolob, and that Jesus was born to this god through his spirit wives, as all mormons are

Mormons falsely teach Jesus Christ walked in the Americas

Mormons falsely teach and practice baptism for the dead

Mormons partake in secret rites derived from freemasonry in their temples, with secret handshakes and token words, Joseph Smith the founder of Mormonism was a freemason

Mormons sealed in the temple wear magic underwear, that they believe and teach is a protector of their bodies, this must be removed so as not to break continuity of the garment on the body "Bondage"

Just a few honorable mentions regarding the practices and beliefs of Mormons

The truth is that God the Father stayed alive in the Spirit while God the Son

There is no God the Son. The only God is the Father, who is Spirit.

And if the adopted son of God did not die, like every man died - completely dead and not partially alive in any way - there is no Good News. See Ephesians 1 and Acts17:31.

I literally just corrected several of these points, and was blatantly ignored to instead have you mindlessly parrot the same false information again. If I were to correct the other points, undoubtedly the same would occur. Great job mindlessly following Walter Martin & his disciples - he would have approved.

As for me, I'm going to look with my own eyes, investigate/study things myself, and keep following Christ & living the two Great Commandments.

Nobody follows what Truth7t7 is proclaiming against. It's a huge strawman "anti-cultist" love to mock. Versus being accurate and addressing actual beliefs, thinking for themselves, and reaching to those they perceive as sinners.

The "anti-cult" is itself a group that focuses on following a man (like Walter Martin), not investigating things themselves, us-versus-them mentality, and using threats to keep people in line. To me, such itself is a cult.

David, if you want me to explain any actual beliefs, including citations, just ask.

Please hear me, my Sister in Christ, and know that our love for Christ is above all else - Amen

i was raised in religion as a RCC. As i grew in Christ i received freedom from the error and bondage of religion.

Not all catholics follow or believe all of the doctrines of RCC, but that does not mean that those doctrines of demons do not exist in RCC.

The same can be said of any religion that holds to error, no matter what the denomination or affiliation.

The only Truth that we have from God for His Children have been given to us and comes from His Word.
Beginning in Genesis and completing in Revelation.
"In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God" - John 1:1

"Abraham believed God and it was credited to him for Righteousness" Galatians 3:6

But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed our report?”
So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
But I say, have they not heard? Yes indeed:
“Their sound has gone out to all the earth,
And their words to the ends of the world.”
But I say, did Israel not know? First Moses says:
“I will provoke you to jealousy by those who are not a nation,
I will move you to anger by a foolish nation.”
But Isaiah is very bold and says:
“I was found by those who did not seek Me;
I was made manifest to those who did not ask for Me.”
But to Israel he says:
“All day long I have stretched out My hands
To a disobedient and contrary people.”
Romans 10:16-21

Everyone has forgotten that God said: "whoever works on the Sabbath shall be put to death"

God never changed His mind or voided this commandment - but i want you to know that since Christ fulfilled the Law and set us free from it we are no longer under the 'day of the week sabbath' for that Day upon which God rested was fulfilled in Christ.
However, anyone that seeks to add, change or alter the Finished work of Christ and His REST will be rejected by God and suffer eternal death which is the Second Death described in Revelation 2:11 and chapter 20.

I'm not sure which point here you want me to reply to.

You do not need to reply - i was just sharing my background and how it corresponds to the Word which saves us from sin, error and religion.
I do 100% agree that a person's primary focus should be following Christ, not man.

Organized religion is not inherently a bad thing- it should be a very good thing actually (having people together to support each other). Any person helping guide another should ultimately be pointing that mentee to Christ and a relationship with Him. Unfortunately, some mentee's get latched on to the the massager rather than the message -- either due to the mentee's failing or the mentor's failing (or both). That's bad, and needs to be addressed when it happens. But let's not throw the baby out with the bathwater.

@Truth7t7, don't you think it is presumptuous to tell a Mormon what Mormon's believe? Is that the most humble way to bring people to Christ.

The bathwater of religion is polluted by man's attempts to clean himself - so definitely throw that out - Peace

Then I saw a great white throne and Him who sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away. And there was found no place for them. And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, and books were opened. And another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books. The sea gave up the dead who were in it, and Death and Hades delivered up the dead who were in them. And they were judged, each one according to his works. Then Death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire.

No blindness but truth, Mormons dont believe in the Lord God of the bible, but in Elohim from the planet Kolob, just one of many god's of the many worlds

Feel free to learn the supposed "Secret" temple rituals before your eyes, and its teachings, watch a child being baptized for the dead, watch the handshakes and token words "Before Your Eyes" in the video clip below

Yep, it’s a total secret that only Walter Martin & disciples can tell you about and let you know the truth. It’s a great thing he’s here to tell me what I really believe.
^Dripping sarcasm.

Yes I believe in telling "Truth" to Mormons that are unaware and deceived regarding the Mormon teachings

Mormonism isnt biblical christianity, as they serve Elohim, and a Jesus who was born to Elohim by one his his many spiritual wives
