More like the meek shall inherit the earth.
What has the meek inheriting the earth got to do with the statement that few there be that find it.
Matt. 7: 14
14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

I am not sure what you are saying. Please understand I am not being smart or sarcastic but when and how did the CC change Baptism. Also there is no where in the bible that say’s we can become gods. You are not understanding the bible. Because if you did that would make God breaking one the the most important commandments. And the RCC is built on the 10 commandments. starting with I AM THE LORD YOU GOD THERE SHALL BE NO OTHER gods BEFORE ME. How could any Church claim to be of God and turn around and break his commandments. THat is impossible!
The CC used to perform baptism by submersion but stop doing it that way in like 5th century and started sprinkling water. They damned babies to hell that weren’t baptized right away before they died, which they have since gone back on. If you don’t believe me just open a history book. The word Baptism means to dip or submerse not sprinkle. I AM THE LORD YOUR GOD-refers to Jesus Christ the god or lord of this World.

Hi Sara,

I’m a Mormon, but one correction here. The Didache, which is a 1st century Christian document (probably from the area of Syria) instructs people to baptize by immersion unless there is not enough water, in which case they can pour. I believe this might have been a corruption–or at least that maybe there had been a case or two where they really couldn’t scrape enough water together to baptize someone by immersion. However, it is clear that some people started pouring much earlier than the 5th century, at least in emergencies.

JW maybe but I dought it, my money is still on LDS
 
Mormons do not honor Jesus as truely being God with a true sense of Trinitarian theology. Mormons believe that Jesus is the God of this earthly sphere. They believe you can become like God that mirrors what satan said to Adam and Eve in Genesis.

They often refer to John 10:34-36 to erroneously attempt to lend credence to their assumption that we can all become gods. Notice how lower case g is used for the word God? John is talking about descipleship to God (upper case “G” )

Thank God my wife left the mormons and is now studying in RCIA!
Jesus said he who sees the Son sees the Father for the Father and I are one. Nobody comes to the Father except through me. I am the Way the Truth and the Life. When time gives way to eternity for each one of us we will all stand before Jesus to account for all the good we have done and all that we have failed to do. In the final judgement (Matt. 25:31-46)
The heretical mormon faith teaches that Jesus is the lord of only the earth. mormons believe that we will all be like Jesus and have a world to our own. Through Eternal progression. I hate to say it but doesn’t it sound like the devil seducing Adam and Eve…
 
I am the Lord thy God Thou shalt not have strange gods before me. Do you know what commandement this is?
 
You are wrong Saralong. Mormons blaspheme Jesus by saying He is the God (don’t you dare refer to Him with a lower case g) of only this world. He is one with the Father and Holy Spirit. I would not look forward to the day that you stand before Christ in judgement. For if you do not know Him as the supreme being with the Father, then you will learn that Jesus is not only the God of love and mercy but also Devine Justice.
 
the book of mormon has been proven wrong by DNA evidence
cuz mormons say that there is middle eastern ancestors in the Americas but there is 99.4 percent that come from east asia decent
and .6 from european. disproving tha they came over on a ship from
the holy land.
The few people who came over on that boat would not even leave a genetic trace. The Book of Mormon does not say that all the people on the american continent were descendents of Lehi.

Switcher-oo. The intro to the BoM used to claim that all of the Native Americans of this continent were descendants of the lamanites. After DNA evidence came to light, all of the sudden the new mormon line is what you have going here.

Running around putting fires out is what mormon apologetics amounts to.

(also, kevangreen is suspended so he won’t be posting here any longer)

Prove this “corruption”.

I still believe that all (or at least the vast majority of) Native Americans are descended from Lehi. Population geneticists will tell you that if Abraham, for instance, actually existed, by now almost everyone on earth is descended from him.

The only change in POV that has taken place in the LDS scholarly community on this score is that they believe the events described in the Book of Mormon happened in a fairly small area, in Mesoamerica, rather than over the whole hemisphere. But this change happened long before anyone brought up DNA. The main reason for the switch is that a close reading of the Book of Mormon makes it absolutely clear that it took place in an area around a “narrow neck of land” that was a few hundred miles across.

So what the DNA evidence that has come to light proves, is that the people who still think it happened over the entire hemisphere probably can’t be right.

Just like all that modern research into the history of the Papacy has called into question various folk beliefs and legends about that. Reading Catholic books about the history of the Papacy written in the last few decades is a far different experience than reading the older ones.

Alan, this is false. We do not say that Jesus is God of only this world. “And worlds without number have I created; and I also created them for mine own purpose; and by the Son I created them, which is mine Only Begotten.” (Moses 1:33, Pearl of Great Price)

What are you talking about. You show me where it say’s that the CC damned babies to hell. Thats is an outward lie. And when a baby is baptised in the Church water is poured over their heads. Have you ever seen a Catholic Baptism. Of course not or you would not say that.

Rinnie she is sad as an apologist. The way mormons trivialize and deminish the sovereignty of our blessed Saviour is a disgrace. I don’t think only Catholics will spend time in the flames of purgatory.

Do you know Utah was the last state admitted into the union because of the polygamy. Of course when they were denied statehood one of their prophets had a vision that polygamy could no longer be practiced. How convenient.

Hey look at the bright side, if we made it to purgatory we got it made. That means we are getting in! We are just going through the final cleansing. We are on our way. Thats okay they will face Jesus Christ some day, and they can explain why they also persecuted his church. Look at Saul, but thank God he turned away from his persecution. Keep the faith and God Bless!
