grapevine Posted June 13, 2022 Posted June 13, 2022 I came across it online. I don’t know what his credentials were other than he has marketable skills. Went from know it all returned missionary to bitter Apostate atheist. Talked of going back to Mtc as pranks. Had many answers. Basically said the Spirit converts that is true of course. But does he say one thing to one person and another to someone else. Said we are to find honest in heart not those who don’t want to hear or believe something else. We don’t like being told we are wrong. They have sincere beliefs too and are devout. Praised Cat Stevens for doing what he thought was right in joining Muslim church. What good would a belief against gravity do? The lord wants all people to join the church. Doctrine and Covenants 49 had harsh words to people who only want to believe the truth in part. There is no salvation in believing something that can’t get you exalted. Tolerance means we are to be civil to people we disagree with. But we do want all people to embrace the truth. We don’t tell people there church is wrong as much as we invite people to bring the truths they already have and teach them correct doctrines on things such as authority, fall of,Adam and Godhead. God is not a Godmof confusion. Then gave advice on people that choose to leave, saying follow your conscience if you don’t think the church is right for you. Critical of people who tell us to keep post mission dress and grooming standards. Saying not that important. Unless you go to ces school we’re mustaches are allowed can have facial,hair, but have been counseled to keep decent grooming. When writing that book I wonder how he went from know it all returned missionary to devout atheist or agnostic? Critical of people that invite others to church in recent blog. Jesus said if you are not one you are not mine. In book said a missionaries boneheaded moves could cost people there exaltation. Few people join the church anyway. I doubt something they say will keep someone out of the church. Then he tries to lead others astray. irony there. Upset at people inviting others to church than tears down religion. I don’t think too many people listen to him. Any rm could of written a book like he did as well.
