Conference Quote: Pay Tithe to be Worthy and Happy

Posted in General Conference October 2023, tagged , , , , , , , on 11/03/2023| 4 Comments »

“Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.” 2 Corinthians 9:7

 A cursory glance at the topics of the October 2023 General Conference seemed rather mundane at first glance. They kept saying their main theme was on the Holy Ghost, however, this was only partly true.

Their main agenda seemed to zero in on being temple worthy and to be worthy enough you have to pay 10% of your income. They used the word tithe and its derivatives 61 times. Any hint at what God’s Holy Spirit might be able to do for you was overshadowed by the panhandling ways of the Church. (more…)

5 Lies Russell Nelson Told at Conference

Posted in General Conference October 2022, tagged , , , on 11/20/2022| 5 Comments »

“But will God indeed dwell on the earth? behold, the heaven and heaven of heavens cannot contain thee; how much less this house that I have builded?” 1 Kings 8:27

 ChurchNews.com “…President Nelson’s conference talk summary…  It is significant that when Jesus Christ appeared to the inhabitants of the American continent,1 He chose to appear to the people at the temple. The temple is His house. It is filled with His power.2

Let us never lose sight of what the Lord is doing for us. He is making His temples more accessible. He is accelerating the pace at which we are building temples.3 He is increasing our ability to help gather Israel. He is also making it easier for each of us to become spiritually refined.4 (more…)

LDS Church Needs A Changing God

Posted in General Conference October 2021, tagged , , , , on 01/19/2022| 3 Comments »

 General Conference, ‘The Temple and Your Spiritual Foundation’, October 2021 “The temple lies at the center of strengthening faith and spiritual fortitude because everything taught in the temple increases understanding of Jesus Christ. …

Ponder these three truths: 1. The Restoration is a process, not an event, and will continue until the Lord comes again. 2. The ultimate objective of the gathering of Israel is to bring the blessings of the temple to God’s faithful children. 3. As we seek how to accomplish that objective more effectively, the Lord reveals more insights. The ongoing Restoration needs ongoing revelation.” — Russell Nelson [emp. added] (more…)

BoM: A Witness of Threats and Lies

“And they departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer shame for his name.” Acts 5:41

General Conference, ‘Scriptural Witnesses’, October 2007 “…Scriptures of the Restoration do not compete with the Bible; they complement the Bible. … To doubters of that second witness—the Book of Mormon—the Lord issued a warning: “Because you have treated lightly the things you have received … [you] shall remain under … condemnation until [you] repent and remember … the Book of Mormon and the former commandments which I have given …, [the Bible, and] … do according to that which I have written.”21 — Russell Nelson (more…)

Strength Comes ONLY from Ordinances, not God

Posted in General Conference April 2021, tagged , , , on 05/14/2021| 2 Comments »

As an update to this post – I somehow forgot to include some verses about finding strength in the Lord – yikes!

Psalm 28:7-8, 37:39, 59:9; Exodus 15:2; Isaiah 45:24…and the list goes on! 

TheChurchNews.com “The word that defines counsel and direction from President Nelson during general conference — ‘faith’ …

Temples are a vital part of the Restoration of the gospel of Jesus Christ in its fulness,” he said. “Ordinances of the temple fill our lives with power and strength — available in no other way. We thank God for those blessings.” — Russell Nelson [emp. added] (more…)

LDS Prophet: Faith Needed to Stay Mormon

Posted in General Conference April 2021, tagged , , on 05/04/2021| 4 Comments »

“Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy, 25 To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen.” Jude 1:24-25

‘Christ Is Risen; Faith in Him Will Move Mountains’ “Talk summary: “My dear brothers and sisters, my call to you this Easter morning is to start today to increase your faith. …

Outrageous Lies of Russell Nelson to Missions Presidents 2021

Posted in News Announcements of Mormon Church, tagged , , , on 04/14/2021| 3 Comments »

Today’s post is a reminder of what Mr. Nelson declared in 2016.

We originally looked at this right after he made the speech in question.

Fast forward a few years and we see Mr. Nelson is on to other things he deems important like building a lot of new temples, and making sure the Church isn’t referred to as Mormonism. The biggest agenda seems to be reminding people they can have their own revelations as long as they fall in line with his.

Sadly, all those in attendance in that meeting five years ago accepted what he said without question, just as many are doing so today.

Please, pray for these dear people and for Jesus’ intervention! (more…)

Posted in General Conference April 2021, tagged , , , on 04/08/2021| 2 Comments »

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.

#1 — Testimonies are Strength of Church  (more…)

4 Symbols of Mormonism Didn’t Include Jesus

Posted in False Prophecies of Joseph Smith, False Prophecies of the Mormon Church, tagged , , , , , on 02/18/2021| 1 Comment »

“A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches, and loving favour rather than silver and gold.” Proverbs 22:1

Of course, the crowning jewel of the Restoration is the holy temple. Its sacred ordinances and covenants are pivotal to preparing a people who are ready to welcome the Savior at His Second Coming. Presently we have 166 dedicated temples, and more are coming.” — Russell Nelson [emp. added] (more…)
