Dave H, I too believe in free agency, and therefore would not try to pressure someone into my own beliefs. I know that without the inspiration of the Holy Spirit in their lives there is NOTHING I can do to influence anyone to seek after Jesus. I do NOT believe that we are "all spiritual brothers" (scripture clearly disproves that demonic lie by stating that a very FEW are sons of God who find the path to eternal life.)
However I respect everyone's deliberate CHOICE to reject the true Christ, as you unfortunately have done. This does NOT mean that I am eager to condemn you to hell (far from it!!!), but have resigned myself to accept your condemnation of yourself, and sadly at that. Izzy -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dave Maybe there is a major difference between the way LDS folks practice their religion, and Protestants practice theirs. We try not to see an adversarial relationship between men and differing theologies. We view all men as being spiritual brothers who have differing paths in their journey of eternal progression. For someone to force another to walk a specific path detracts from the free agency aspect of the plan of salvation. So I don't think it is of benefit to twist somebody's arm to make them believe like we do. IMO, it is better to let them come to that conclusion on their own. ---------- "Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer every man."
