And I took the thirty pieces of silver, and cast them to the potter in the house of the LORD.”

Mormons Obligated to Fill Missions Calling
Posted in Mormon Missionaries, tagged false prophets of Mormonism, Gordon B Hinckley, Mormon males must serve missions, Spencer W. Kimball on 02/20/2017| Leave a Comment »
John 14:6; “Jesus saith unto him: I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.”
New Era, ‘Questions and Answers,’ February 1971;
“As I pray about a mission, the Lord says to me not to go.
“When should a young man not go on a mission?”
Answer/Elder Gordon B. Hinckley
In the first place a man does not initiate his mission call. In light of this, it is not his prerogative to choose or not to choose to go on a mission. His bishop and stake president recommend him, and he may state his desire to them. The call comes from the President of the Church, and the young man may then accept or reject it.”
Conference Report, October 1974, pp. 116-117; “…One obsession of this Church and all its members is missionary work… …if you receive a call from the Lord through your bishop and stake presidency, it is your privilege, but also your obligation, to fill that calling…Every boy in every country in all the world who has been baptized and received the Holy Ghost will have the responsibility of bearing the message of the gospel to the people of the world.” – Spencer W. Kimball
Hinckley’s Lie: True Forgiveness Means Forgetting

Matthew 5:9; “Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.”
FIRST PRESIDENCY MESSAGE, ‘The Order and Will of God,’ January 1989
“So many of us are prone to say we forgive, when in fact we are unwilling to forget. If the Lord is willing to forget the sins of the repentant, then why are so many of us inclined to bring up the past again and again? Here is a great lesson we all need to learn. There is no true forgiveness without forgetting.” – Gordon B. Hinckley
Also see:
D&C 58:42; “Behold, he who has repented of his sins, the same is forgiven, and I, the Lord, remember them no more.”

Gordon B. Hinckley boldly proclaimed none else but God Almighty came down to earth and told Joe Smith all of Christianity was wrong. He also asserted the entire church rests itself on the validity of this ‘glorious first vision’. It’s a dismal outlook on life if this is what the Church is banking on. His claim gives investigators many reasons to reject their church. There’s no less than eleven different versions of the first vision.
Why don’t they set their validity on Jesus?
General Conference, ‘What are People Asking about Us?,’ October 1998; “Our entire case as members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, rests on the validity of this glorious First Vision” (Also see Church News, Oct.
10, 1998, p.17).

When all is said and done, if the world is going to be saved, we have to do it. There is no escaping from that. No other people in the history of the world have received the kind of mandate that we have received. We are responsible for all who have lived upon the earth, and that involves our missionary work. And we are going to be responsible for all who will yet live upon the earth.” – Gordon B. Hinckley
