foster Posted December 14, 2013 Posted December 14, 2013 Canard, apparently here on a message board for dialogue and discussion, certain posters are off limits and are not to challenged. I have been banned from the other thread. Apparently buffet line and cafeteria isn't as "open" as I thought. As to your request for a statement for a 1852 Divine origin of the Priesthood ban, well it seems to me you have moved your request from any statement to an 1852 statement. I am fine with you clarifying your request. Truth, is I am not concerned with finding a statement from 1852. I accept the statements I have referenced. You do not accept them, and that is ok too. Even if I cared to search for a 1852 statement and found one, I very likely would not share it. What counts is that You accept what you accept, I accept what I accept. I will pipe up when someone makes a claim along the lines of "there is no evidence for X", which is what I have done in the other thread. The Church via the First Presidency have made certain statements, I accept those parts of the statements which have not been disavowed, if any of the statement has been disavowed by the Church. If you don't improve the attitude you will be banned from the board.
BCSpace Posted December 14, 2013 Posted December 14, 2013 As to your request for a statement for a 1852 Divine origin of the Priesthood ban BY himself implies as much in "To The Saints" when he says: "...and the prophet should reply I have spent three times seven years to learn learn these things and know how to build up the kingdom of god and get salvation therein with fastings and prayers and travels and research and weariness and watching and have paid out thousands of dollars beside to gain the information you desire and do you think I am going to give that away which has cost me so much by no means if you want to know what I know you must learn the trade as I have what would you think of such a prophet?" But something more specific is not necessary as the Church has coupled this with the recognized prophecy in the OD2 that they should one day have all the blessings.
