"But to me, the more important number is the close to 10,000 total hours a month spent here in the center by the inmates," Elder Lunt said. "That's time they weren't up on the cell blocks, time when they were in an environment that was constructive. And frankly, it's an environment where the Spirit is, and they can feel that. Some of them don't know what it is; they just say, 'We feel good down here.' "

I am glad this stake is doing something to help African-Americans trace their genealogy because it is very difficult for many African-Americans whom decended from slaves, especially those who decended from field slaves (generally darker skinned slaves), to trace their roots.

johnyjamie-

So why does the Bible say one thing, but...the Bible teaches another thing?

(Wait, the Bible contradicts itself?)

Yes, it does.

(So does that mean that the Bible is not true?)

Well, if you use the same logic against the Book of Mormon, then yes, it is not true.

........

For one interesting example - why not check out how Judas dies after betraying Jesus Christ?

There are a couple different versions in the same New Testament.

johnyjamie - Would Jesus Christ go around bible bashing?

Besides, you are misinterpreting the scriptures. Only the Holy Spirit can we truly understand their meaning.

Know that God loves you. He has restored his gospel truths and invites all men to come and partake.

God Bless.
