If we are an abomination in the sight of God -are we also an abomination in your sight?or will you also play on words as they can "fit" better.   p.s. The e-mail address I gave out was for Terry which was clearly stated-but it would seem that you changed those words to fit your "ends "also-so now you can appear sad and hurt. Thank you Kevin for pointing this out to me.   Dean,    Rather than address what I wrote and give a reasonable rebuttal to it, you have chosen to attack me personally,  and to bash Mormonism.   As I said, the scripture I quoted appears to be in Isaiah, as well as being part of what God said to Joseph Smith.  I did not say it, He did. If you think it is a personal attack on you or your religion, you should call him on the phone and complain.  (:>)   Or send him one of your e-mails.  I am simply quoting what God said.  You may also want to advise Kevin to do the same, as it sounds like he is also complaining about God's words.    I sincerely meant it when I said I was sorry to see you leave, but now I am not so sure.  I definitely will not use your e-mail address to contact you with any helpful pleasantries or sympathetic advice again.    Shalom, Peace, Blaine     --- Original Message ----- From: Kevin Deegan To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, January 31, 2004 4:44 PM Subject: Re: [TruthTalk] False Teachers Similar words were again--for the third time--given to the wicked religious leaders and people of these last days,  by Jesus Christ, because it applies to them--again.   He said, more succinctly this time, and with emphasis on the modern situation, "Those professors (of religion) are all corrupt;  they draw near unto me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me, They teach for doctrines the commandments of men, having a form of Godliness, but they deny the power thereof." Note the final words, "they deny the power thereof."  This was not in the NT scripture.  It was given to this day and age. Sounds very similar to the words in "The Prophet Joseph Smith's Testimony" pamphlet published in 1984 by the Church of Jesus Christ Latter Day Saints.  It is given out at LDS visiting centers &  historical cites. "Some were contending for the Methodist faith, some for the Presbyterian, and some for the Baptist".  Joe didn't know which of the sects were right so in the sacred grove, Joe asked God which he should join. "I was answered I must join none of them, for they were all wrong, and the personage who addressed me said all their creeds were an admonition in His sight: that those professors were all corrupt: that they draw near me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me. They teach for doctrines the commandments of men; having a form a godliness, but they deny the power thereof". Where is your quote from?

But in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men."       Note that this scripture was being given for the second time, since it is a quote from the prophecies of Esaias  (Isaiah).    Yet Jesus chose to say it again to these people to whom it applied to.  I think he did this because he knew they needed to have it brought to their attention.  Obviously, they were ignoring it.      Similar words were again--for the third time--given to the wicked religious leaders and people of these last days,  by Jesus Christ, because it applies to them--again.   He said, more succinctly this time, and with emphasis on the modern situation, "Those professors (of religion) are all corrupt;  they draw near unto me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me, They teach for doctrines the commandments of men, having a form of Godliness, but they deny the power thereof." Note the final words, "they deny the power thereof."  This was not in the NT scripture.  It was given to this day and age.      Yet many still disregard it, saying, A Bible!  A Bible!  We have got a Bible, and need no more Bible!  IOr, in other words, we already know that scripture, we do not need you to repeat it!! (:>)  (grin)    Isaiah made his prophesies concerning the people of NT times.  The BoM prophet Nephi prophesied regarding our times, and his prophesy is fulfilled in this generation.   > Mat 15:9 - Teaching the commandments of men - As equal with, nay, superior > to, those of God.
