The Bible instructs all to be one in Christ. We will need to be one in Christ to endure the End times which is already upon us. Jesus loved everyone, even His enemies. As a Christian I practice His teaching. God bless... FRIEND
While I am an Evangelical Christian and do not adhere to some of the video posts on this song and on LDS doctrine.....I admit this guy can sing and yes I do call you friend even if you consider yourself strange and weird or not.....lol...........God Bless!
i just got baptized 2 years ago, and im barely 16, but i know, with no doubt, that the book of mormon is true! its not another bible, because we use the bible too, its just another testament of jesus christ when he came to America. Ive been catholic before, and experienced the Christian religion, and without offending anybody, i havent feel what i felt at the mormon church. I am proud to be mormon! and if you call us weirdos, then i love being one!:)
We believe in the same church of Jesus Christ when he was on the earth, and that God sent Christ, his son, to be a living prophet on the earth, and to call 12 apostles. We believe that it is restored today. God has called a prophet today, Thomas S. Monson, and he has called 12 apostles as well. Sorry to burst your bubble "lividmachine", but we haven't changed anything. The Book of Mormon isn't a "Mormon Bible". We use both the Bible and the Book of Mormon to teach of Christ.
@ScienceReasonBelief - The amendment called for defining marriage as being between 1 man and 1 woman. Not as "banning gay marriage" as constantly run in the tabloids and regular news. And secondly, I said nothing about them saying things contrary to our religion; save every thing that they said with respects to the LDS church not being allowed under law to support elections that directly affect the church and its members, separation of Church and State constantly being badly defined, what else?
2:00 it says: "Instead of spending Sunday School talking about other churches..." I would add to that this: Mormons do an awful lot of quoting of partial scriptures but 1 Thessalonians 5:21 says; Test all things and hold fast to which is good... your mormon church AND their beliefs even with all the changes you made to your prophet's teachings and your bible still has epically failed that test.
@lividmachine I would add to that that Christians are supposed to "test all things" even within our own churches. We are to test ALL things: ALL doctrines, ALL denominations, ALL religions, ALL persons, ALL scriptures and ALL gods. If you are Mormon don't take it personally, we are supposed to be sure that the things we place our faith in hold up to scrutiny and that they are indeed the truth.
Question: if you never do the same, how can you be sure that what you believe in is true?
The last quote in this video is 100% true! Christ is central, His ministry, atonement, resurrection are all central to what we believe and make returning to God possible. Everything else is merely an appendage to it.
Well if you were taught something like in Sunday School then you should know with a perfect knowledge that it was that man or woman's opinion and not church doctrine. Even if he quoted a scripture or two, in the end it was an opinion at best.
This is not church doctrine.
It doesn't sound like a Sunday School Topic to me but if you say so, then perhaps you should confront your Sunday School teacher someday and point out the false doctrine.
The Lord has always said he would have a "peculiar people" to be his covenant children.
Deut. 14: 2 2 For thou art an holy people unto the Lord thy God, and the Lord hath chosen thee to be a peculiar people unto himself, above all the nations that are upon the earth.
David Archuleta, whether we know this yet or not, will be a positive ambassador for the Lord's church and he has already won the hearts of America with his Angelic Pipes!
Which family? The family you've got now or your pre-mortal one?
Take a clue from Jesus... when told His mother and bro's were outside waiting to talk to Him, He said, pointing to His followers, "Here are My mother &My bro's! For whoever does the will of My Father in heaven is My brother&sister&mother." Matt12:46-50
Just b/c a sealing ceremony is performed, doesn't mean it's a done deal, as proven by divorces that happen after marriages in the temple 4time&eternity!
@THELDSLIFE Isn't it shocking that I too love my familiy so much and care about them enough to want them to have eternal happiness and be with them forever?
I can't believe a human being would even think such a thing. Oh wait, I want that too. :)
@pineapplecrazed14 - Genesis 12:3 - And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.
What part of this promise to Abraham and those involved in that covenant would you want MORE access to? Is that just something that people simply have to say they are now a part of it or do they have to be adopted into that covenant with Israel? There is a way to do this. Are you seeking after it?
This is wonderful! Thank you for representing us correctly, and showing people what we're all about! :D

Thanks for letting this be a video response to your video. I thought it made a "great companion" to that "Weird Beliefs" that we have...
Of course, some STILL think that our beliefs are weird as Christians so I made this one for both the Atheist and Theist equally so!

Can't you just stop being such a happy Mormon and be miserable like all the rest of Christiandom? Men weren't mean to have joy!
Christians today are the Jews of yester-year... unable to recognize their savior when he has returned in preparation for his second coming!
You must not forget that God wouldn't call ahead! He just says he'll be back someday.
If I were to say I'm visiting you in 1 years time, I'm sure you'd want me to phone ahead but we can't hold Christ to that standard.
