New Era, “Personal Purity”, February 2000; “These are moments when we quite literally unite our will with God’s will, our spirit with His spirit. At such moments we not only acknowledge His divinity but we quite literally take something of that divinity to ourselves.” – Jeffrey R. Holland
2 Samuel 7:22; “Wherefore thou art great, O LORD God: for there is none like thee, neither is there any God beside thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears.”
The LDS excerpt today comes from a speech given by Mr. Holland to LDS youth on the subject of staying sexually pure.
While telling kids they need to honor God and themselves by not having sex outside of marriage he also gave the erroneous teaching of what takes place when a husband and wife have kids. Telling them they take a part of God’s divinity is nothing short of blasphemous! You can’t take anything away from God because He’s God!
Mormons are in that infamous hamster wheel of trying and working and doing all they can while getting nowhere fast. You cannot become little gods, you can’t take any of God’s divinity away from Him and you will be held responsible for spreading these poisonous lies.
