Hey, this topic is just for LDS members, so we can discuss things and topics. If you are not LDS and you want to talk, please join, but if you insult us, you will be kicked and reported.
You know what? That's actually really ironic. Because one of the plagues sent by God is said to be locusts, right? Well, all Utahns know the story about how the California gull came to be our state bird(despite the fact that California has quite obviously already laid claim to it); that massive swarms of, *gasp* locusts kept eating the Mormon pioneers' crops and they were dying of starvation and weren't making any money; in other words, the locusts were making life suck. But then, like a blessing from *gasp* God, the seagulls came and ate all the locusts, saving the Mormons' butts. A pretty interesting story, if I do say so myself. =D
Nah it was a message of
Hey look he was CRAZY come on now I'll be nice and send you seagulls but your heavens actually going to be in Missouri BWAHAHAHAHAHA
John 8:44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
Looks like you are wrong again.
Heaven in Missouri
If I live in Heaven then why does everyone here pronounce it Misery.
We are the children of God, the devil isn't creative (like all angels) he couldn't be our father because it would mean we would have to have been created by him. Then again children is simply a symbolic term, believers are obviously children of God and I could see how you could argue nonbelievers are in fact the children of the devil.
look in the book of revalations, the meaning of chap 22 verses 18 and 19 means that no one may add on to the book itself, dont dis the book of mormon, it could help you prove that christ was real
How is Missouri Heaven? How can Joseph Smith be the only one to read these prophecies? How are Indians re-incarnated into Jews when they have no belief in a central God and have had nothing happen to them relating to the persecution of Jews?
Mormons dont believe Missouri Is heaven there are some of us who beleive that the new garden of eden will begin here.
He was able to read the Golden plates through the Urmin And thumin(or something like that) and he had to keep them safe from the townspeople who wanted to steal them and sell them
As for the jew thing i'm not really sure what your talking about but i can take a wack at it, From what i hear of it the jewish portion has died out due to nonbelief and unfaithfulness to god
And Revelations 22:18 Is talking specifically about Revelations not the bible itself, Actually if you want to get technical there were several books written after revelations.

New Garden of Eden? Um there isn't going to be one? It's going to be worldwide.

Of course, mighty convenient isn't it? I'm sorry but that's ridiculous also what made Joseph Smith special?

Nope it specifically says if anyone adds on to this book. Now think for a second revelations was a letter not a book, so obviously he was referring to the bible as a whole or the word of God whatever you want to call it.
The book of moron what? Dude it's the book of mormon; ohhh whats the difference?
And Revelations 22:18 Is talking specifically about Revelations not the bible itself
Quite the opposite as samy was good enough to point out. Why would it apply only to Revelation and it be just fine for other biblical works to be utterly corrupted by false doctrines?

Seeing as how the bible was'nt around when revelations was written Revelations could not have been talking about the Bible.

The sentence contradicted itself. Please provide sources for i would like to read them, i'm not discounting this just interested.

Yes mighty convienient. But Why would god have given the plates if they could not be read in some way?
And where are these godforesaken tablets sent by God himself now?
There are several things that i have heard, Such as he gave them back to an angel and that they were taken back, Another thing i have heard was that Joseph Smith had put them in a cave near the Hill Cumorah that contained artifacts of times gone by.
Note that there have been caves in America that have been said to contain artifacts from other countries(such as Egypt)
There is nothing in the Bible itself that I can think of that says it was in missouri or the north american continent.
What I've deduced from Mormons is that they take everything from the Bible, twist it a little and make it fit so that America could be the Holy Land or that the Jews are re-incarnated into Indians and stuff.
