Read James 2:17-26 and then chapter 4. We're saved by grace through our faith in Christ and that same faith is dead without works. We will be judged according to our works as taught in Revelation 20.

Christ is our Lord our God while God the Father is the one true God as Christ himself taught. The nature of God the Father and Jesus Christ are pretty clear in the scriptures.

Just now saw this. I think this answer puts things into perspective: Jesus Christ is the SON of God.

Missionaries

I'm including that. If I read something I don't understand I keep reading it over and over as well as before and after.

Wow. Syrup. That part got my attention lol.

The Book of Mormon doesn't take as long as people think it does to read. You can do it in 1 month tops. I read about 1/4 of it in less than a week including the testimonies and introduction page.

The point I'm making isn't that members that don't read it are bad people. I'm just curious as to why people see it as such a small thing to read.

Their purpose is the same, they just need to seek the gospel of Jesus Christ.

I'm looking up this very thing so I thought I'd answer. I wouldn't say you can't lose your salvation. Someone brought up blasphemy against the Holy Ghost. If you proclaim Christ as your Savior but later blaspheme against the Holy Ghost you lose your salvation because Christ taught this is an unforgivable sin. 2 Sam. 7:15 But my mercy shall not depart away from him, as I took it from Saul, whom I put away before thee.

True. The Apocrypha can be declared to be as old as the Old Testament. I do like the rest of what you said in regards to giving D&C 88. I do believe the Apocrypha is important. If it wasn't then Joseph Smith would have no need to tell about it being mostly correct. I trust his judgment seeing how he was a prophet of God. I wonder if people would feel the same if it was someone like John, Peter, or Matthew that addressed the Apocrypha.

No, I will not deal with your mouth. One of our cars wouldn't crank for a bit yesterday, we had to take the other one to get checked out yesterday, and my aunt died at 2AM yesterday morning and the funeral is tomorrow. Her death was just 2 months after one of my uncles shot himself. I am not in the mood to put up with how you usually are.

New church pet peeve: Some of the members Well, I wouldn't call it new. Just something I forgot to put.

It's good that we're given what there is in regards to the war in heaven though.

Nope. You don't mind the rosary yet you don't see the need for for reading the Apocrypha even though Joseph Smith, a prophet of God, said it's mostly correct. The purpose of this thread is what I said in the original post. What is people's feelings toward the rosary considering what Matthew 6 says. Why do you bother saying anything? All you do is say negative things to me and right now I'm not in the mood.
