Mormons married in heaven

[Mannyfit75]

Who was Jesus talking to when He said that there was no marriage in heaven? Was He not talking to the Sadducees? Were the Sadducees unbelievers? Sadducees would have had a civil [worldly] marriage which does end with death.

Jesus that they will be like angels. Marriage is no longer bound once we die.

So the idea of Marriage in heaven by the Mormon is another false doctrine create by John Smith…

What does it matter who he was talking to?

Jesus said there is no marriage in heaven. Isn’t that enough?

What a clever, complicated writer Mr. Smith was. Not just paper documents, but gold plates! Not just going to heaven, but you get to be a god! I almost wonder if he was a frustrated insurance peddler.

If and when I sit down to design my own religion, I’m not gonna let it be this complicated. Pork and everything barbequed will be okay for high holy days, chocolate and coffee will be required in all homes, and prostitutes/hat check girls/P.R. spokesmen/consultants will be legal but lawyers and hip-hop music will be illegal!

Oh, and a decent pecan pie will getcha straight into heaven!!

He was referring to those who are not married by the divine authority of God for time and all eternity.

I don’t understand how they think this makes any sense. A woman who has had sexual intercourse with any man, even a god-man, is no longer a virgin.

If Jesus had been conceived through an act of intercourse, there would have been no Virgin and no Virgin Birth. Yes, their god could have waved his hand after the act and physically made her intact again, but that would not change the fact that she had “known man.”

LDS Apostle Bruce R. McConkie in his seminal work “Mormon Doctrine” explained it this way:

“For our present purposes, suffice it to say that our Lord was born of a virgin, which is fitting and proper, and also natural, since the Father of the Child was an Immortal Being.”

In other words, if a woman has sexual intercourse with an immortal being of flesh and bone, it doesn’t count as losing her virginity. Very Clintonesque.

That is according to the Mormon cult interpretation. All Christians understand Jesus’ teachings to mean that human marriage does not survive physical death. Mormons, AFAIK, are alone among the cults in believing such an elaborate construct of heaven. I wonder why they think it is necessary. Christians just accept the words of Jesus as he meant them, and we know what he meant through what the Church he founded teaches, and what Christians have ALWAYS believed.

That is according to the apostate Christendom’s interpretation. Mormons know from revelations we have received from the Lord that marriage survives physical death.

As you know, Christianity is apostate, and LDS Church is the only true Church on earth today. Therefore it comes as no surprise that their doctrines should at some points be significantly different from theirs.

Christians just accept the words of Jesus as he meant them, . . .

Excuse me, you mean “apostate Christians . . .” Well, they don’t even have the words of Jesus in its perfection “as He meant them,” since following the apostasy much of it has been lost; therefore they are not in a position to be able to “accept them ether”.

. . . and we know what he meant through what the Church he founded teaches, . . .

You mean the church that apostatized! Sorry, you are not in a position to “know what He meant” through the church that apostatized shortly after it was established.

. . . and what Christians have ALWAYS believed.

You mean apostate Christians! Sorry, what they believe or don’t believe is irelevant in the face of the Restoration of the gospel by Jesus Christ which has now taken place.

I see Zerinus is back… hope you got some rest, Z. You’ll need it!

Is it the “reveleations” and “modern scripture” upon which these teachings about marriage are based?

I’m glad to see you have accepted that Mormonism is not part of Christianity. Some Mormons seem to think that it is. But, then, you’d have to be outside Christianity, wouldn’t you? Otherwise, you’d be “apostate” too. So, we agree that Mormonism is a cult that uses the name Jesus Christ in its brand, but doesn’t follow the teachings of Jesus. We can know this from many things, including the teaching of Jesus regarding marriage, which is specifically ignored by the Mormon cult.

Excuse me, you mean “apostate Christians . . .” Well, they don’t even have the words of Jesus in its perfection “as He meant them,” since following the apostasy much of it has been lost; therefore they are not in a position to be able to “accept them ether”.

The cult founder Joseph Smith would naturally have claimed an apostasy, and a corrupted Bible. This type of claim is typical of cults. The Jehovah’s Witnesses, your door-to-door competitors, claim the same type of thing, with different results. I suppose they have a different “holy” spirit witnessing to their bosoms than Mormons do. And then, there are many various Mormons, too, who do not agree with respect to many things, such as marriage rules, like polygamy, and the authority of the so-called Mormon prophet. No, it doesn’t surprise that Joseph Smith the science fiction writer needed a phony apostasy to support his claims of visions and burning bosoms. They were never taken seriously by Christians.

You mean the church that apostatized! Sorry, you are not in a position to “know what He meant” through the church that apostatized shortly after it was established.

Praise the Lord! I am not in the Mormon cult. I have been so gullible throughout most of my life, and have fallen for many scams. But, I never fell for the Mormon scam. Praise the Lord!

And yet, there are only a claimed 12 million or so of you after what? 177 years? And of those claimed 12 million, relatively few actually still go to Mormon church. I’ve been to Mormon church, Zerinus. Slim attendance. Geeeze. You’d think that, after 177 years, there’d be more Mormons.

 

[zerinus]

I see Zerinus is back… hope you got some rest, Z. You’ll need it!

I hadn’t gone anywhere to be back. I know you desperately want me to. Though luck! I ain’t gona nowhere! Keep wishful thinking away.

Yes.

I’m glad to see you have accepted that Mormonism is not part of Christianity.

You mean part of apostate Christianity. That is correct. It is the only true Christian Church in the world.

Some Mormons seem to think that it is.

No they don’t.

So, we agree that Mormonism is a cult that uses the name Jesus Christ in its brand, but doesn’t follow the teachings of Jesus.

No; we agree that Christianity is apostate, and Mormonism is a restoration of God’s original Christian church.

Praise the Lord! I am not in the Mormon cult. I have been so gullible throughout most of my life, and have fallen for many scams. But, I never fell for the Mormon scam. Praise the Lord!

You are in the biggest cult on earth—the cult of anti-Mormonism. That is the most wicked, corrupt, and abominable cult that has ever been invented. Come to think of it, I am glad that you are not a Mormon either. It will be a sad day for Mormonism the day you decided to join.

Slim attendance. Geeeze.

Count me too! Glad to hear it!

You’d think that, after 177 years, there’d be more Mormons.

Mormonism has buried a lot of people like you during the past 177 years; and will bury you and many more like you during the next 177 years.

Not at all! I’ve missed you the past few days during your silence. I hope you weren’t sulking. BTW, glad to provide you Mormons with a platform upon which to show your unChristian colors to the world.

You mean part of apostate Christianity. That is correct. It is the only true Christian Church in the world.

Tsk, tsk, there you go again. The disk must be stuck on the word “apostate” as you’ve used it so many times today. Not long ago, chasjohn got his feelings hurt when some Christians here resented the charge of apostasy that flows out of Mormon apologetics.

No; we agree that Christianity is apostate, and Mormonism is a restoration of God’s original Christian church.

And not much else, evidently. BTW you also agree in this regard with your door-knocker competitors, the Jehovah’s Witnesses. Also BTW, they are out-knocking you and holding on to their cult adherents a lot better than you Mormons are. Maybe THEY are the true cult?

News Flash for Zerinus: Very few Catholics even know that Mormons exist. It could hardly be true that Catholicism is defined by its being anti-Mormon, the way Mormonism is by being anti-Catholic. You couldn’t prove this any more than you could prove the Great Apostasy.

Come to think of it, I am glad that you are not a Mormon either. It will be a sad day for Mormonism the day you decided to join.

Well, dadgummit. I offered to join, several times. I told my ex-Mormon fiance’s father and brother that, if they could prove the Great Apostasy to be anything but a Mormon and JW lie, I would become a Mormon. So far, they’ve not provided a single item of proof, and neither have you. Guess I’ll stay Catholic.

What an odd thing to say. But, then, we’ve gotten accustomed to odd things issuing forth from the Mind of Zerinus. This reminds me of Kruschev pounding his shoe on the desk at the UN saying, “We Will Bury You.” Not that Mormons share very much with the old Soviet Union, except maybe that pesky longevity thing…

Well, unhappy weatherman, I am not here to get into a slinging match with you. Unless you have something new to say that is worth a serious discussion—been there, done that—I can find better things to do with my time. Have a nice day.

See ya, Zerinus. Sorry you’re not getting any converts. Don’t let it get you down. Keep trying!

Will the 19th century cult that is the true restored gospel church please stand up?

It’s difficult to come up with different arguments with someone so adept at circular reasoning. Maybe your experience would be different if you were more interested in an honest, open discussion.

Just a thought,

Do you mean all those missing people buried out in the Utah desert by the Danites? You guys are still doing that, eh? Your missionary technique definitely needs some work.

[truthsilence]

Zerinus just so you know, Mormonism is not the center of the Universe. I know you truly believe it is. I’m so sorry for you. Swallow your pride, get down on your knees, and ask the Lord to open your eyes to His truth. You are completely blinded by a false religion and yet here you are, attacking Christ’s true and Apostolic church. You will gain no conversions here. We have been bought and paid for; and at what a price. Christ’s body and precious blood. All the Saints who have fought through the ages to preserve the church and God’s word intercede for us to this day, in heaven. You don’t have a leg to stand on.

Your behavior here is blasphemous and proud. We see nothing of Jesus in you, or your words. Darkness pours out of your mouth with pure ugliness and hate. For two thousand years the adversary has tried to destroy God’s church, and has failed. You won’t get anywhere either.

I pray the deception will somehow be lifted from your mind and heart and that you will finally, truly, come to know Jesus Christ, who stands to welcome you home with open arms.

Click here for a link that explains what mormoans believe about marriage in heaven. Boy, now I know why men want to be mormon! I fail to see what exits on a mormon planet for a woman though except for labor pains and laundry? A picture is worth a 1,000 words. Boy I wish Buck Rogers was here so he could fly me over to another planet and meet some gods! by the way, where is the god of this planet if this is his planet? How can families live and stay together on their planet if each man and his herum has their own planet? mormon logic does not compute as Spock says? Well, if you have your own star ship I guess you could travel on weekends to other palnets to visit family but still that means they don’t live on the same planet.

Oh well, I shall just hope that I will one day become God as a Catholic. (CCC460) I hope Catholics know the difference between Gods teaching that we become God verses Mormon teachings of becoming a god?
