Are you one of those people who equate thinking about breaking a commandment is the same as breaking one? -- Steve O a.a. #2240 (Apatheist Chapter) B.A.A.W.A.

Then according to Jesus, in Matt. 5:22, you are liable to judgment of murder. And, if you have broken just one of the statutes in the Law, then you have broken them all. There has only been one person that has ever been able to keep the entire Law. But, putting all of that aside, it's of much more paramount importance to consider whether you are a Mormon or not. Are you not aware of the fact that Jehovah's Witnesses, "Christian Scientists", and Mormons are looked upon by the Christian church as three of the largest cults pretending to be Christian?

But, yes, we have it on good source that if you are angry with someone, some manuscripts add "without a cause", then you are guilty of killing that person. Or, if you look upon a woman, besides your wife, with lustful intent, then you are guilty of committing adultery. Yes, I'm one of *those* people. But you can call me a Christian. I wouldn't mind it a bit. ;) |
