Thank you for your respectf...Mr Jean-Charles LEQUY.<br />Thank you for your respectful comment!! <br />Thank you for praying for me and for trying to clarify the issue.<br />I understand what you are trying to say, and this was exactly why I wrote this blog post. <br /><br />Abraham Lincoln DID NOT promote slavery.<br />Joseph Smith was martyred BEFORE Utah was founded.<br />But Jesus Christ did IN FACT die to save my soul and yours.<br />i know Him, i love Him and i try every day to do GOOD, like He has done.<br />I AM CHRISTIAN.<br />if you knew me, you would FEEL that truth.<br /><br />just because we interpret the Bible differently does NOT mean that i am not Christian or that my idea of Christ is FALSE or wrong.<br /><br />i can feel that you are a good man.<br />thanks again for your comment.<br />we are on the same path!jeniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01353955201144145831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3574832774101813976.post-15615335371952152672012-08-06T12:44:35.168-07:002012-08-06T12:44:35.168-07:00Hi Jen.
I appreciate how well written this post i...Hi Jen.<br /><br />I appreciate how well written this post is, especially how well articulated it is.<br /><br />By my comment, I will try to clarify and maybe help diffuse the misunderstandings related to this very emotional issue.<br /><br />I am not a Mormon, and as I was reading your text, it came clear to me, that the main misunderstanding about people denying that Mormons are truly Christians, is this:<br />WHO do we say that Jesus WAS and IS?<br />When we compare the definition/ description of the Mormon Jesus with the biblical Jesus (i.e. related to who God was, is and will be / and about the value of his sacrifice on the cross, etc), mainstream Christians see such major differences that are irreconciliable with biblical Christianity, therefore disqualifying Mormons to be truly Christians in the biblical sense of the term. <br />The best example for this would be to claim that Abraham Lincoln promoted slavery, or that Joseph Smith founded Utah - to this, anybody could declare with assurance, that such a person is not describing the Abraham Lincoln or Joseph Smith of History, but a falsified version of the historic person.<br />THIS is the true nature of the discussion: when we don't use the same definition.<br /><br />I hope that this will clarify and maybe help diffuse this very emotional issue.<br /><br />I prayed for you.<br />God bless.<br /><br />Mr. Jean-Charles LEQUYjclequy@yahoo.canoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3574832774101813976.post-38651621772707770712011-10-23T16:07:45.008-07:002011-10-23T16:07:45.008-07:00i don't mind if you link to this post...
