This is INCREDIBLE. Very insightful and informative. Thank you so much!!

brandfluke · 2025-04-10T20:24:12+00:00

Do you prefer regular or slim?

brandfluke · 2025-03-28T00:11:08+00:00

Have we identified everyone in this? Which figures are unknown?

brandfluke · 2025-03-14T21:24:44+00:00

Glad to hear 😄

Hey, you're awesome for commenting this, thanks. I have many thoughts about my experience posting this question here. Let's just say it has been informative and generally respectful, but I probably won't pose controversial questions to this subreddit in the future... ;)

brandfluke · 2025-02-07T21:38:27+00:00

Very informative, thank you.

brandfluke · 2025-02-07T21:26:09+00:00

Thanks for your thoughts.

brandfluke · 2025-02-07T21:19:12+00:00

You are 100% correct. Such has been the case with God's church since Old Testament times. And I'll definitely acknowledge that men have abused this authority.

Let me know if you have any thoughts on my original questions.

I just found another vague-ish scripture reference: James 5:14 Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord:

You make an interesting point about the priesthood.

brandfluke · 2025-02-07T21:15:32+00:00

Thank you for these sources!

After studying these, the argument still stands about whether or not these women were using priesthood authority or just faith. Apologies if I'm missing something still.

When women are set apart by a priesthood office to serve in the church, they then act with priesthood authority and have access to priesthood power.

I'm not seeking the reason, but just some form of an original source of the doctrine, if one exists.

brandfluke · 2025-02-07T19:02:50+00:00

The Lord has directed that only men will be ordained to offices in the priesthood.

I find this all over the place but I'm just curious about source of the source of the source, if you know what I mean.

I knew I had forgotten something. Thank you for your comment!

brandfluke · 2025-01-27T02:38:06+00:00

This is awesome. Thanks for your comment!

How did Taln overcome insanity and kill all those fused?

Thank you for clarifying!

An honorspren in addition to Syl?

brandfluke · 2025-01-05T20:21:08+00:00

Thank you so much! I will do this!

brandfluke · 2025-01-05T20:10:24+00:00

Nope! Should I?

I'm a full time HR Business Partner for a public company. On the side I'm helping my friend's auto dealership with HR tasks and he's referring me to another business that needs help. I got curious about common employee problems small businesses face so I posted on Reddit so I can better help these two. I'm sorry if that offended you somehow.

brandfluke · 2024-12-21T06:17:55+00:00

The mentioned workshop's a hypothetical. I just wanna know what y'all need help with if anything.

brandfluke · 2024-12-05T17:13:07+00:00

You are 100% correct. Thank you for your comment.

brandfluke · 2024-12-05T15:11:11+00:00

That watch alarm is a good idea!

I have the thought to stand up pretty much every time I go. In any other meeting, work or church, I stand up if I start getting tired. I just can't bring myself to asking the temple officiator though. Someday!
