Forgiveness Contradictions in Mormon Canon
Posted in False Prophecies of the Mormon Church, tagged false doctrines of Mormonism, forgiveness, Mormon canon contradictions, no forgiveness on 10/23/2016| Leave a Comment »
2 Thessalonians 2:9-11; “Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, 10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie.”
Smith’s ingenuity in finding ways to confuse people never ceases to amaze me. What’s even more surprising is how so many have been blinded by it. Today we’re looking at the contradictions in Mormon canon on who should forgive, and when to do so.
The first revelation listed here is from September 11, 1831.
D&C 64:9–10; ”I, the Lord, will forgive whom I will forgive, but of you it is required to forgive all men; but he that forgiveth not his brother standeth condemned before the Lord.”

Visiting Teaching Message – July 2015
Posted in Visiting Teaching, tagged forgiveness, God, Jesus, LDS, mormonism on 06/30/2015| Leave a Comment »
The Visiting Teaching Message this month focuses on the forgiveness and mercy of Jesus Christ and how Mormons can apply it to their lives.
As I began reading the message I was struck by the quote from Dieter F. Uchtdorf where he said: “Forgiveness for our sins comes with conditions”.
He then goes on to say. “We must repent, and we must be willing to forgive others.”
Mormons Confess Sins to Authorities

Ensign, “How Can I Know That The Lord Has Forgiven Me?,” January 2015; “If the time comes when you have done all that you can to repent of your sins, whoever you are, wherever you are, and have made amends and restitution to the best of your ability; if it be something that will affect your
standing in the Church and you have gone to the proper authorities, then you will want that confirming answer as to whether or not the Lord has accepted of you. In your soul-searching, if you seek for and you find that peace of conscience, by that token you may know that the Lord has accepted of your repentance. Satan would have you think otherwise and sometimes persuade you that now having made one mistake, you might go on and on with no turning back. That is one of the great falsehoods. The miracle of forgiveness is available to all of those who turn from their evil doings and return no more.” – Harold B. Lee
Pick Up Your Cross

Luke 9:23-25; “And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me. 24 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it. 25 For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, or be cast away?”
A couple of weeks ago my pastor spoke on taking risks and what our responsibilities are as members of the church of Jesus Christ. He based his sermon on the passage above and of course I began thinking about the Mormons. For this article I have two objectives to explore and they are;
What did Jesus mean when He said ‘pick up your cross’?
What does this phrase mean for the Mormon?
Baptismal Interview Questions – Part 3

For part three of my discussion on the questions asked during the interview process before one becomes a member of the Mormon faith I’ll be focusing on the third and fourth questions.
This set of questions has to do with the Mormons view of repentance and what they consider the more “serious sins”.

False Prophecies of Mormonism, David Sent to Hell
Posted in False Prophecies of the Mormon Church, tagged bible, false doctrines of Mormonism, false prophets of Mormonism, forgiveness, Jesus, King David sent to hell, salvation on 06/30/2013| Leave a Comment »
David Went to Hell & Lost His Kingdom
Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, pg 339; “A murderer, for instance, one that sheds innocent blood, cannot have forgiveness. David sought repentance at the hand of God carefully with tears, for the murder of Uriah; but he could only get it through hell: he got a promise that his soul should not be left in hell. Although David was a king, he never did obtain the spirit and power of Elijah and the fullness of the Priesthood; and the Priesthood that he received, and the throne and kingdom of David is to be taken from him and given to another by the name of David in the last days, raised up out of his lineage.”

Murder
Alma 24:10; “And I also thank my God, yea, my great God, that he hath granted unto us that we might repent of these things, and also that he hath forgiven us of those our many sins and murders which we have committed, and taken away the guilt from our hearts, through the merits of his Son.”

Forgiveness
Enos 1:5-8; “And there came a voice unto me, saying: Enos, thy sins are forgiven thee, and thou shalt be blessed. And I, Enos, knew that God could not lie; wherefore, my guilt was swept away. And I said: Lord, how is it done? And he said unto me: Because of thy faith in Christ, whom thou hast never before heard nor seen. And many years pass away before he shall manifest himself in the flesh; wherefore, go to, thy faith hath made thee whole.”
