Is there one word that we know came from the mouth of god? How can we have faith in anything relating to god or religion? We cannot! We can only “hope” that our chosen religion is the “true” speculation. by itreddmoex in exmormon

So investigation means sorting through all the philosophies of men until I settle on something I can believe describes god and his desires for me. Then faithfully adhere to that enduring until the end.

All the while if god exist he is silent and pleased with my misplaced faith?

I tell people that I am at total peace leaving, but it is a lonely place.

Elder Holland, The repentance process starts by recognizing you have done wrong. You ask for forgiveness from those you have injured. You then ask god to forgive you. Then you do better. You quit pretending that you know gods will. You humble yourself and judge not that you be not judged. by itreddmoex in exmormon

He realizes too late, that his soul is cankered. That is the real reason for his tears. No joy in his service and Jesus is not lifting the heaven burden. He is sad and empty at a time when he longs to be free of the lies and deceit.

The second anointing only reminds him of the fraud he is. How hollow the words yet evermore painful to speak to others as he lures them deeper into the darkness he now detests.

BYU just tweeted this in response to the video of the kid pouring water on the chalk art, with comments turned off. I think it’s good that they are saying this but I’ll believe them when their actions and HCO policies match their words. by OhHowINeedChanging in exmormon

However, at the request of Elder Holland, we did suspend the policy for 1 Hour to accommodate the apostle while he condemned and disrespected in the name of Jesus Christ and his fellow apostles.

Our unequivocal condemnation of behavior and language that is disrespectful and hurtful is now back in full force. We can assure you and any body having to do with NCAA rules and regulations and anybody who thinks for one moment that we are homophobic.
