    THE BOOK OF MORMON - A Re-Title Exercise

    These questions (which do appear to be real, that I applaud you) have a lot of misconceptions about them. I'll go in clarify actual beliefs-- "What about Jesus?" Jesus Christ is the one and only Begotten Son of God. He existed before the Earth was made, made the Earth, was born into a mortal...

    Non-christian reacts to "The Chosen" - Season 1, Episode 1

    I'm in the same boat. I don't do much tv myself, so I haven't gotten to it, but it is on the "to watch" list.

    Why, if God is sovereign, is there a global pandemic?

    Why do you assume that God's plan for you, me, or this world was one akin to a perfectly smooth cruise ship ride? Wherein everyone is just to be pampered and entertained all day? That's not how God or His plan works. We are called to action, and each consistently going though a refiners fire.

    No authority!

    I think that this statement would be more accurate is you replaced "non-Catholic Christians" with "some Protestants". As there are plenty of non-Catholic Christians whom do acknowledge that these powers continue (LDS and Orthodox being two examples that readily come to mind).

    No authority!

    For the record, LDS Christians ("Mormons") firmly believe that the Apostles powers continue after the death of the original 12 apostles.

    Does it concern you that gospels were written so many years after Jesus died?

    For me, my witness of God's Truth comes from testimony of the Holy Spirit to me directly. It doesn't depend on the exact literal accuracy of a human's written account.

    some questions

    Honesty this pastor dude you're describing just sounds like a weirdo who's probably best to just move past.

    some questions

    Honestly, he probably says that to just about everyone, had it had little to do with you specifically at all.

    some questions

    I've had that happen too-- when they also flat out also say "I hope you repent from your evil ways and find Jesus". People can be.... frankly I roll my eyes VERY big at points.

    some questions

    The definition of "anointing" varies hugely form group to group, hence your answer will vary too. Of course. Prayer is wonderful. Some groups believe in more elaborate prayers being possible in this case. You ask God yourself and listen to Him. He's the master here, not any human. That...

    Why Do People Believe In This?

    Background here for folks: the Salt Lake Temple (one of 150+ temples around the world) needed some updating to be better protected against earthquakes, which Salt Lake does occasionally get. And while you're doing extensive renovating, you might as well update the AC, wi-fi, plumbing, and etc...

    Why Do People Believe In This?

    Honestly that's part of the reason I'm hear at not somewhere else. I'm a disciple of Christ, and I'm not going to dance around saying that because of some pig-headed rule set. That doesn't mean that I'm going to "pretend" to be Protestant or something silly like that-- I'm not that for a...
