Non LDS Invitation

If you were not raised among the LDS, if you are among other "christians", or if you are not even christian like the LDS or others who also believe in Christ, take a look at the Book of Mormon. Not just to join the modernized version of the LDS church, but to see for yourselves the true stories of ancient prophets living among a fallen people, to see just how they connected with God even in their own dire situations. To see how other simple people just like us went on a certain individual path or trek to obtain the Fullness of the Gospel, including a real friendship with our Father and His Son, who is the MEDIATOR OF ALL. Ask the Son, He will assist you personally to get there. 

We must cease our endless arguments, judgements, comparing who is right and who is best, and pointing of fingers among organized religions and work together. All are God's children. The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob is the God of all of us. Let us put away our divisions, our strifes, our contention, our forcing one another to believe in our organization or group movement. Look to the Lord for your leadership, then we will all see eye to eye and we will be like Him, having a proper understanding of all things because we all learn from the same Teacher.

Written law and temporary things do not save.

This was in response to a group discussion I recently posted somewhere else.

Written laws and rituals embedded with symbolism to teach us something, are for those who do not already have the laws and truths of God written in their hearts. Our problem among the LDS or any organized movement is that we seek to perpetuate rules and regulations and forget about the individualized, hard, sacrificial works of Abraham and others in our scriptures to get the required education and connection to have those eternal truths and laws sealed into our minds and hearts.

Personal righteousness, according to God's rightness is REQUIRED. Our thoughts on what it means to be "right" may be in error. "God's thoughts are not our thoughts" say the scriptures. Try to set aside what we deem or think is the right way, and look at things as if you haven't learned anything about the gospel. Have an open heart and open mind. Search the scriptures, ponder and pray until you come to a full understanding. Our God is loving, but also logical, He does want us filled with knowledge and understanding.

Becoming like Jesus is REQUIRED. He is the one to follow. He said so Himself. Who are we to question the word of the Lord? Become like Christ in the way that we want the Father's will over all of ours first. Become like Christ by becoming one with the Father, having the will and word of God permeating our physical beings until we arrive at the perfect day... a day where the Lord will approach us and tell us. Perfection according to God, not according to the perfectionistic man.

We are commanded to be like Christ. Christ will help us become such, if that truly is our true desire and we ask Him to take us there. We will believe in Him enough that we will wait for Him to take us there.

I don't know how anyone could think that we just need to accept Jesus and we are saved or at-one with Him. Faith without works is dead faith. All of our scriptures, Joseph's life and the life of all those who go thru the hardships to obtain great promises and connections proves we must experience and learn the same to obtain those things from Christ.

Denver Snuffer is right, we cannot bypass the rough experiences we will experience, necessary experiences needed to wring out anything negative inside us, experiences to teach us what we must know to be saved, to pick up that cross, see what the Lord went through... so we can see a little of what He suffered while sharing what the Father helped Him to learn, to ultimately be eternal friends with Him. If we are not willing, or thinking that is not necessary, we do not have the faith and belief necessary to take hold of these greater things. Give everything to Christ. Give up our worries. Give up what others might think. Give up on thinking we will never make it. Doubt your own doubt. Give the Father and the Lord a true heart felt message saying you will go through whatever it takes to get where He is, and see if His own promises to all don't come about. Share with others what He asks you to share to assist Him in His last final gathering before coming destruction and cleansing of the earth. Never give up. This is the Lord's work: helping people come into His true eternal church, or network of friends... despite what the organized religions of today go and do.

When the veil is rent, we will all see our follies. We will see how all the mortal dividing and division and breaking up of families over what we each think is the right way to God is not right. Judge not, help all to head in the right direction, care not what level of the ladder to heaven each is on... and assist each other to keep going higher and higher. I don't care and I know the Lord doesn't care what ism or what group you count yourself a part of on earth... let us help ALL, whether Christian, Muslim, Jew, Buddhism, athiest or independent seekers of the Lord.

We must go back to the original fullness of the gospel. All the temporary temples and rules and laws and priests and pastors and prophets were meant to help us get back to it. A temporary provision until we all figure out that Adam and others before Moses (Patriarchs) had the fullness of the Gospel of God without these temporary means. We all need to be the temples of God. We all need to be His Priests and pastors and prophets, all seeing eye to eye, where we don't have to tell each other know the Lord, for we already do. All equal, non above the other in the negative sense... but if Jehovah and all El wants to raise some up to where they are, then let us honor that, and take it as a testimony that we too can get there. They want us joint heirs with them. They want us to be like them. We will sit next to and with them, not under them. This is the true message of the Fathers. This is that fullness obtained in the Book of Mormon and the Bible and true prophet's lives. 

Our Lord is the mediator and God to all of Abraham's seed. "I am the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob"... means He is Lord to all. When organizations fail to receive the true fullness or zion among them, there are always alternative means to obtain a full connection with Him and our Father. If some begin to see eye to eye, then will the Lord create a Zion group to be a part of... that final Zion group who meet the Zion coming from above, and together they will build the New Jerusalem.
