She may not be an "apostate" but it looks like what she does fits the LDS definition of priestcraft to me.

"Priestcrafts are that men preach and set themselves up for a light unto the world, that they may get gain and praise of the world; but they seek not the Welfare of Zion…. But the laborer in Zion shall labor for Zion; for if they labor for money they shall perish" (2 Ne. 26:29, 31)

I don't think Julie Rowe is getting the praise of the world.

Of course she is. Every book that sells, every attendee to a lecture, even online discussions and blogs about her, is attention from the world, a lot of it in the form of praise.

One has to look no further than the Amazon reviews on her books to find such praise, like this one, of which there are hundreds

Quote

In Julie's NDE she is shown important events in our world's history, especially the life of Jesus Christ. She is shown a review of her own life, and is shown events that will transpire before Christ's Second Coming. Julie testifies of the truthfulness of the events she witnessed and shares the future events to help the reader be prepared for the future.

See here.

Or this quote from her Wikipedia article

Quote

Rowe has written three books. Her current book, From Tragedy to Destiny, was released in February 2016 and was written for a wider audience outside of the LDS faith. Her books have become popular with readers in and outside the LDS Church. .. Rowe states the experiences she shares are her own. However, she feels the Lord has called her to share these warnings so others can seek spiritual guidance and confirmation for themselves and their families for better preparedness.

See here.

Or if you wish, check out LDS Freedom Forum, for some extensive praise of the world. I would posts some experts but I think cross posting is against forum rules.

See here.

 

Even blogs that praise her are not hard to find., like this one.

 I don't consider those people of the world. Do atheist care? Does anyone outside of the US LDS/ Christian world care? What about LDS in other countries? What about Russian mobsters? Italian Mafia members? Communist Chinese? North Koreans? Egyptians? Muslims? Hindus? Catholics? Does anybody in Europe care?  I have friends that call God my imaginary friend, do you think they care? Does anybody in the state of California care that is not LDS or Christian? Has she made the NY Times best seller list? I don't really know and I'm just asking. I had never heard of her before she was mentioned on this board. My wife doesn't know who she is, my wife is well read and well traveled.

If not apostasy then why not for just being a crazy wacko

Because then they would have to haul me before a disciplinary counsel and I just do not feel like it.

I predict that it will rain soon in Washington State. Perhaps tonight, perhaps tomorrow, perhaps next week. Or all the above. Who knows? Nevertheless, it will rain. Please note that you heard it from me first. Send me your money and I will give you more predictions.

I was right. It's a rainy night in Washington. I predicted this on the 23rd. I now predict the sun will shine in Washigton some day soon. Maybe even this week. Send money for more of the same.

...so a church court is held for Jeremy but Julie gets a pass?   Remind me Who's teaching false doctrine again? Can anyone say double standard?

Sure, anyone can say it; but does it mean anything when they do?

Mister Runnells has been peddling his anti-Mormon Dreck for years. If I wasn't so lazy, I expect I could search back to the time Kate Kelly was ex'ed and find someone getting all indignant that he hadn't been booted then. I know some people were mad that she was out while Mister Dehlin was still in. (That didn't last long, though.)

"Double standard" does not mean that two people doing different things get treated differently; it means that two people doing the same things get treated differently.

Stir up more fear------>Get more attention------->Sell more books.

We are close.

Sending my love to all those who will be impacted by the upcoming Wasatch Wake Up.

Know that you are all in my thoughts and prayers and that the Lord loves you and
has a plan for you.

Have faith. Trust in Him. Turn to Him. He will be there to help you pick up the
pieces.

When the rain comes, look through the clouds and see the sunshine.
You will see a rainbow and it will help you know that God is aware.
He is once again giving us a sign that He will never again destroy
this earth through a flood. It is time to wake up. It is time to
sound the trumpets and start living. It is time to re-commit
ourselves to family, faith and freedom.

Doggone it ttribe, look at us both back here again. We must be masochists, or something.

Well, I know I am...

It's a win/win situation for her. She predicts something will happen that is a scientific inevitably but gives no timeline.

What is up with this format?  Those are some weird paragraphs, almost backwards, hmm...

My husband told me today that his brother asked if any of his other brothers wanted to buy a machine that freeze dries food.  It isn't a cheap machine...around $4,000 bucks, if my husband got his story right.  

I have to wonder why my BIL wants to buy this thing.  Could be he's worried about a food storage or storing up better tasting food than wheat.

Well I did hear some speculation the earthquake wouldn't happen until after the Provo Temple was off its stilts .... it is so I guess the ground can start moving... no maybe it will have to wait until the new missionary buildings are finished.

Having lived in southern California much of my life, predictions(Speculations) about earthquakes are a dime a dozen and about as accurate.

Here's another recent one for California:
San Andreas fault 'locked, loaded and ready to roll' with big earthquake, expert says

"Southern California’s section of the San Andreas fault is “locked, loaded and ready to roll,” a leading earthquake scientist said Wednesday at the National Earthquake Conference in Long Beach.

The San Andreas fault is one of California’s most dangerous, and is the state’s longest fault. Yet for Southern California, the last big earthquake to strike the southern San Andreas was in 1857, when a magnitude 7.9 earthquake ruptured an astonishing 185 miles between Monterey County and the San Gabriel Mountains near Los Angeles.

It has been quiet since then — too quiet, said Thomas Jordan, director of the Southern California Earthquake Center.

“The springs on the San Andreas system have been wound very, very tight. And the southern San Andreas fault, in particular, looks like it’s locked, loaded and ready to go,”"

The San Andreas is some 800 miles long. Predictions about where it will snap are a dime a dozen. That's the problem when living in earthquake country. We will have one someday, but no one knows when. On the whole I prefer to live here than anywhere else. Interestingly Oklahoma has surpassed California as the earthquake capital of the US, and they get tornadoes.:o

This brings up one of those old Mormon urban legends about "tent cities" springing up where the saints will go at the end times as natural disasters like earthquakes start to hit the world.  Some have come to believe in the idea of ‘tent cities’ because of dreams they have had personally, or because of listening to the dreams, or near-death experiences of others. There are rumors that the church plans to use the girls’ camp facilities in an emergency as centers for tent cities. 

This tent city is not an urban legend. This is the BYU High School Track & Field Invitational.

The church is fine with crazy wackos, at least to a certain extent. :D

True. The church has had certifiable people claim that other people live on the moon. Too bad the church didn't excommunicate them for sheer idiocy.
