May 26 – Ps. 139:14 “I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvelous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.”

Ask the Mormon why God would place this scripture in the Bible when they believe He also wrote the various literature the church produces about non-whites. Why has none of the Book of Abraham been changed since the church accepted blacks into the priesthood? The teachings are still the same. How can this book be true if God changed His mind?

“It has been pointed out that the mark of Cain was a black skin and that he received it as a symbol of protection. The curse of Cain was that of a Son of Perdition with its accompanying loss of Priesthood, and damnation.” The Church and the Negro, p. 17.
Others speak to this better than I can. (I am an old southern boy and even though I know the habits of thought I learned as a boy are wrong this is one old habit I have not yet mastered.)
“Sometimes God withholds certain blessings from certain people without explaining why He does this. Sometimes this is a willful decision on His part expressed via direct revelation to his prophet. At other times, God allows his prophets to act as they feel best. In the case of the priesthood ban, we do not know which of these scenarios is applicable. What we do know, however, is that the ban was lifted by revelation in God’s due time.”

Great tip of the day!
Kind of confusing how someone could be fearfully and wonderfully made, and at the same time be cursed.
“For there is no respect of persons with God.” (Romans 2:11 and Colossians 3:25) God does not favor one over the other because of the color of their skin. God judges people by the content of their heart (Hebrews 4:14; Matthew 9:4.
The Mormon belief that black folks were cursed by God is addressed in Romans 14:4 “Who are thou to judge another man’s servant? to his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be holdeth up; for God is able to make him stand.” It ain’t the color of your skin, its about you faith in Jesus Christ (Romans 4:3-5)
Nothing in the Bible says that Cain’s mark was black skin. That was made up by racist Mormons. It amazes me how much black people defend this racist religion. They have been racist from their founding.
