September 26 – The Greatest Commandment Is To… Matthew 22:36-40 “Master, which is the great commandment in the law? 37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. 38 This is the first and great commandment. 39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.”

Conference Quote 2023: Criticizing Prophets is Dangerous
Posted in General Conference April 2023, tagged Allen D. Haynie, ‘A Living Prophet for the Latter Days, ’ April 2023, false teachers, General Conference on 04/16/2023| 4 Comments »
General Conference, ‘A Living Prophet for the Latter Days,’ April 2023 “The doctrine and principles that we must follow to survive spiritually and endure physically are found in the words of a living prophet.
…prophetic teachings do not become more valuable with age. That is why we should not seek to use the words of past prophets to dismiss the teachings of living prophets. … Our seemingly small deviations, quiet neglect, or whispered criticisms in response to prophetic counsel may result in our only walking dangerously near the edge of the covenant path.” — Allen D. Haynie (more…)
Yoga Symbol Used for LDS Youth Theme
Posted in yoga, tagged 2023 LDS Theme, false teachers, For the Strength of the Youth, lies told to LDS youth on 11/10/2022| 5 Comments »
‘Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.’ Colossians 2:8
Today we’re looking at a topic we’ve discussed before — yoga.
The reason we’re discussing this again is because of what I found on the LDS Youth homepage. See LDS Youth Theme 2023 for more info.
In their utter contempt for the Lord and His word the Church decided to use Philippians 4:13 as a segue to introduce the theme for 2023 along with an image of stacking stones used in Yoga.
Their tactics are a brazen exposition of how they pretend to be a spiritually safe place for kids. Shame on them! (more…)

‘Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.’ Acts 4:12
ChurchNews.com “One simple way to get to know someone is by learning their name. … “Jesus wants for us to know Him because His is the only name under heaven whereby we can be saved. … My earnest desire is that you will come to know Jesus Christ by His many names and that you will become like Him as you exemplify His divine attributes in your life.”” Jonathan Schmitt (more…)

General Conference, ‘For God So Loved Us’, April 2022 “God sent Jesus Christ because He loves His children and designed a plan for each of them to return home to Him. This plan is personal and was set forth by a loving Heavenly Father, “who knows our hearts, our names and what He needs us to do.” …

General Conference, ‘Is the Plan Working?’, April 2022 “All of us face boisterous winds that can shake our faith and cause us to sink. When we struggle—for any reason—that does not mean the plan isn’t working. That is when we need the plan the most!
In those moments, follow the example of Peter. Turn to the Savior right away.
“Now is the time and the day of your salvation. … Do not procrastinate the day of your repentance.”8
…Humble yourself before the Lord… Peter had shown faith, both in walking on the water and in reaching out to the Savior when he needed help. Even so, the Savior saw in Peter the potential for so much more. “O thou of little faith,” He said, “wherefore didst thou doubt?”10 (more…)

The three talk summaries we’re looking at today are enough to show the fallacies in LDS theology. Pray for those who watched this conference, and bought into the lies! You can read the Church’s PDF which is where we originally retrieved them, and/or see their talks in the links we provided below.
One thing is certain. The Church continues to point inward to avoid pointing to Jesus.

The September issue of Liahona included the September issue of the kid’s magazine, Friend.
In that portion, the Church wanted kids to count the number of times the word ‘fowl’, appears in the first chapter of Genesis.
Their article should give everyone pause, and for a few reasons! (more…)
LDS: Spirit of Elijah is Holy Ghost
Posted in Baptisms for the Dead, tagged false teachers, Russell Nelson, spirit of Elijah, temple works for the dead on 09/17/2020| 2 Comments »
The Spirit of Elijah, by Definition, Is the Holy Ghost as His Directing Influence Guides Those Who Participate in Family History and Temple Work [2.6] ““The Spirit of Elijah” is a manifestation of the Holy Ghost. [2.6.1] Latter-day Saints often talk about “the Spirit of Elijah.” This phrase refers to the workings of the Holy Ghost upon individuals that creates an excitement and desire “to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the children to the fathers” (D&C 110:15) and to be involved in the work of family history. Elder Russell M. Nelson of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles explained: “What is sometimes called the Spirit of Elijah [is] a manifestation of the Holy Ghost bearing witness of the divine nature of the family. Hence, people throughout the world, regardless of religious affiliation, are gathering records of deceased relatives at an ever-increasing rate” (in Conference Report, Apr. 1998, 43; or Ensign, May 1998, 34).”

“The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: But the word of our God shall stand for ever.” — Isaiah 40:8
Doctrines of Salvation 3:224 “At the command of the Lord, however, Moroni also sealed up the greater things in this vision and also the interpreters-which were the same “two stones” had by the Brother of Jared-so that this vision should not be made known even in our day among the Gentiles, in the day of their wickedness; it could not be revealed “until the day that they shall repent of their iniquity, and become clean before the Lord.” So we today do not have the fulness of the account written and sealed up by the Brother of Jared and again sealed by Moroni. This part of the record the Prophet Joseph Smith was forbidden to translate. We have, then, received but the “lesser part.”” — Joseph Fielding Smith (more…)

2019 April General Conference Stats
Posted in Stats of the Mormon Church, tagged 2019 General Conference, cult, false teachers, Stat Report on 04/09/2019| 8 Comments »
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has seen its fair share of changes throughout time.
We’ve seen prophets who were all but silent in their tenure, which of course means Joe Smith and Brigham Young who were both endowed with mouths like no others.
We’ve also seen LDS prophets who barely made a peep. The one in charge today, (Russell Nelson), is anything but quiet.
Mr. Nelson’s priorities are shaping up to be quite the scene. He seems to be hung up on everyone using the name of the Church properly. This scenario began last year and has continued on through 2019.
Last year we also saw a dissolution of the Visiting Teaching Messages, and the rearrangement of their priesthood. This year they’re backtracking on excluding kids of gay people, and now we’re witnessing record numbers of people leaving. The first thing that came to mind was, ‘oops’. Apparently the Mormon god didn’t foresee the ramifications of what it’d mean to exclude innocent children from his kingdom.
This is what happens when you try to hide evil. Eventually truth prevails.
Here are the numbers for 2019. As you’ll see, the only news that remained the same was the downward trend of their ‘inspired works’.
Above all else, please, pray that those who are actively involved, will stand up, walk out, and accept the Jesus of the Bible as their true Savior!
With Love in Christ;
Michelle

Roots of Mormonism
Posted in Nepotism in Mormonism, tagged false teachers, mormonism, Richards on 04/27/2018| Leave a Comment »
Proverbs 22:6; “Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.”
In my beloved Utah there’s a natural (albeit strange) phenomena called ‘Pando’,
It’s a small forested area with one big problem. The entire 106 acre Aspen forest grew from one root system. This means if one dies, they all die. There are no new saplings growing from dropped seeds. What trees there are, has grown by the sheer force of the underground root system spreading across the land. Scientists discovered it in the ‘60’s and have determined it’s about 130 years old.
In addition to Pando, a somewhat similar phenomena has taken over the Wasatch Front that originally took root on the eastern seaboard. Nepotism in the Church has been a long standing problem to everyone but those who belong to this human form of Pando. Making matters worse is the force behind the root system – blasphemy.
