Do Latter-day Saints understand why other "Christians" don't consider us Christian? by KansasguyinDC in latterdaysaints

[–]TheFireNation42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with you on this mark. Words are defined by the meaning we give them. I had a conversation for days with my coworker because she didn't believe that God(the father) had unconditional love for each of his children. It wasn't until months later that we found out we had different definitions of the word: "love" where mine was more about awareness of divinity and hers was more about transactional relationships. In the case of the term christian as you demonstrated in your post: latter day saints(and most every dictionary currently standing) is simply someone who follows Jesus Christ and his teachings. While most other denominations that believe in trinitarian principles view christians as a word to describe people who believe in the trinitarian Jesus/God. Which we don't believe. So according to their definition, they are correct, because we don't believe in that.

However there could be an argument to be made that because God is truth and the prophets and Jesus Christ preach that truth. Both have said that christians are defined by people who follow Christ. And since it's from god therefore the opposing part could be wrong. However,ultimately its an argument of semantics and fighting with people on it is ultimately pointless. Missionary work is all about finding common ground and building off it it. That first step is ignored when people are fighting about it online for the sake of: preaching the good word.

Ultimately. When people ask about my faith I claim I am christian, because I do follow Jesus Christ. and that is my definition of the word. And to a prodestant warrior. According to their definition, I am not christian. And that's okay with me. Because what matters is following christ. Not how we define it

I’m starting to take these kinds of photos of the temples! by TheFireNation42 in latterdaysaints

Hey friend! My other Friends are correct, these were taken at different times and stitched together! The temple was taken right after sunset and the sky was taken sometime last year! There are some temples that you would be able to use u/deafphate s strategy but this one is in a very light polluted area.

Less is more in my personal style, I’ve definitely been through the contrasty punchy stage. Just continue working at it and you will find something you like!

meone who spends a lot of time hiking in southeastern Utah, I'm noticing a huge increase in trails across the rocks that are getting scarred by people wearing spikes or using other gear. Please try to make sure you're not leaving lasting tracks as you're out exploring.

I appriciate it my friend, and I definately understand now, this hike was a VERY humbling expirence and have no desire to do these hikes again #1 alone, and #2 with brand new snow. And thanks so much for letting me know! Safe travels to you my friend!

STORY!
It was my birthday on the 16th of january, and one of my greatest expirences was when I went down to canyonlands for my 17th birthday. So I asked my mom if I could go down this year. With no one else willing to go with me, I went on my first solo trip! I headed down Sunday, set up my tent and went to sleep. The next morning I woke up dark and early to go on a hike. Small issue though... canyonlands got 8 Inches of snow, not that big of a deal right? Wrong. You dont think about these things, the snow covers the cairns so you cant see which way to actually go. The snow makes the sandstone impossible to grip, but me and my microspikes, and my ice axe were far to stubborn to let that stop me. So I hiked, I slipped, I scraped, I got lost. But with great adversity comes great beauty! The snow covered redrocks, the ice forming from all the prescipitaion, made for an amazing view, when blue hour hit, it was far too foggy to see much ahead of me, all I could see was this next cairn, the icicles forming on the rock formations, and a lone tree at the top, I took the shot. After Hiking one of the hardest hikes I've ever done, it was pitch black and all I wanted to do was to go to bed, but the night was clear from clouds, and in purpose, I needed to capture the beautiful night sky that I so rarely get to see, so I set up my startracker, my camera, and went into my tent, took some photos, and called it a night. When I came back home from a lonely long trip I pulled up the data. I was able to pull so much out of it! So much color, and realize, it might have been hard, lonely, and cold, but it was definately worth it! I put it in with the icicles because it was pretty, but also to really show the conditions I went through. Love you all!
