What level of authority receives the sealing power ? Is that a special calling/ordinance or can any bishop or Stake President do a sealing by simply getting permission from a temple President.? How a bout can any MP holder do it ?

To whom can a temple president delligate the authority to perform a temple sealing ?

Watched Deadpool and Wolverine on TV. Can not recommend. 1. 30 minutes too long. 2. Too many fight scenes. 3. Unnecessary ugly language. 4. Very little humor. I liked the first Deadpool but this one is a perfect example of massive amounts of money ruining the production values. Obviously I am in the minority on this if judged by the box office receipts.

Going out on a limb here, but I think that the intelligences made a choice as to whether or not to be clothed in a spirit body. If not then there exists an intelligence soup that God just dipped a spoon into for each spirit body. The scriptures indicate that God can and does get ' angry ' , so that emotion is available to all eternal beings , no ?

I've been recently thinking about the Roman Empire. They had a different approach to the bathroom situation. 😉

You may have a case , but most " call for bids " documents have a disclaimer that " lowest bid not necessarily accepted " , or something like that .

I recently heard a story about an inmate scheduled for execution who was asked what he wanted for his last meal. He said he didn't want a last meal but wanted a last cigarette. Initially that request was denied because it was not good for his health. Eventually ,he did get the cigarette after much debate. You can't make this stuff up... well...

Just curious, but why does it matter ?

We are asked to ascertain the Lord's will for us and then do His will. Even Christ asked to follow a different path in His prayer but ultimately bent to the will of the Father. Is that not ' control '? Probably more of an ' influence ' . Parents of young children must control them especially in potentially dangerous conditions like high traffic areas. Hopefully the kids reach an age where they will control themselves and just need the occasional spoken influence to modify behavior. Unfortunately, most of us know people who, no matter the age, do not want any one but themselves to even suggest that there is a better process or behavior.

I find it suspicious that any Vet can have a drug that will drop a horse in seconds but the State is stymied.

About 150,000 souls cross from mortality daily. The place is Busy !

The spirit world is here, no ? Spirits live in a different dimension/ frequency of vibration than us but on the same earth. After the resurrection the earth will be renewed and changed and become what , The Telestial world , the Terrestrial world or the Celestial world ... or none of the above ? Speaking of suffering for sins , will I be suffering just for my own sins , or for the sins of those I encouraged to sin or led astray ?

There would be an overabundance of funeral potatos and green jello.😁 ( this is an inside joke Dario )

Much of history is filled with violence. I wonder, if humans are made in the image of God ...

There are very few commandments that do not come with nuance/ exceptions. coffee is good for you or bad for you depending on the study, kind of like eggs . I may have mentioned in the past that I knew of a guy who drank 66 cups of expresso a day. When he was taught the WoW he quit in 2 weeks , down to 33 per day one week and to zero the next. He said he had a bad head ache for a while. I wonder if obeying the WoW kept the destroying angel away from his door . Maybe. Drinking 2 liters of Cola a day is not spoken about in the WoW specifically so go for it ! NOT !

Anyone up for a midnight service ? 😄

Of course , there is that weird height thing !!!

It may have something to do with increasing the Zoom to 175%. Bad eyes !

My opening page was the three forums on the left and on the right were about ten of the current threads. This has now gone. there are a bunch of other changes too many to list. Maybe I hit a button somewhere without knowing it.

Is it just me or was there a change in format on the site ?

I once read that in military / combat zones , just the marks alone could be carried without using the garment. True ??

Where I live , we can use long sleeved thermals during certain times of the year. 😁
