  1. If it is true, as some NDE experiencers report , that we got to choose our own life situation before coming here to mortality , then that would definitely impact the idea of " FAIRNESS " . Even the Church has said that we chose who would be our family. Maybe that idea is one of those " cats getting out of the bag " that Brigham Young spoke about .
  2. So, it was possible for a spirit to rebel against God and follow Satan. I wonder if it is possible for a fallen angel to change and rebel against Satan and apply for a return to God , or is it one and done? Seems to me that God is big on giving second chances to those here in mortality.
  3. I have found that old age shakes and fat thumbs makes texting on my phone dddiiiffficuult.
  4. Then there is Enoch who, with his entire city, was taken up to heaven without tasting death and is supposed to return at the Second Coming. Also, the scriptures imply that Moses was taken without death. Personally , it would be a case of " be careful what you wish for " because living for about 2000 years and watching all your friends and family pass on etc. could get depressing, unless one was able to move back and forth between the spirit and mortal worlds at will.
  5. Yes, my father told of two different occasions in which he interacted with a man that he considered to be one of the three. No healing was involved but other types of blessings followed their meeting. This happened nearly 100 years ago .
  6. Can one repent daily of the same sin? If repentance has those 5 steps like we were taught in my youth, then I think not.
  7. Anyone here know of sources that speak about the families of Christ's disciples ? Any wives or children mentioned? It seems as though most were living hand to mouth as fishermen or whatever, so if they followed Jesus all over the land , what happened to their families if in fact they had any ? I wonder how old most were. Perhaps they were quite young and didn't have their own families established yet. It is possible that parents and or grandparents took up the slack. Maybe the Christian community helped out. As I have said before, I am re-reading the New Testament and these odd thoughts come out.
