Good Luck my protestant friend!
June 24, 2008 | Leave a Comment
I am receiving comments from protestants friends about my previous blog on the Mormon Miracle Pageants.
One of them says,
Jesus died on the Cross for you and Bleed for you. That is it, we do not work for salvation, it is a GIFT! Stop trying to make it so hard for yourselves.
I have no time right now to engage in a deep doctrinal discussion, but I can’t avoid thinking…
good luck my friend, good luck my protestant friend! I hope you will follow the commandments, because even if you think it is not important, and that you are already saved, it will matter a lot, and not only at the end of your life, but soon, sooner that you think. Even in this life we start reaping the consequences of our actions. Really it would be very easy if all it was required was to profess with our mouth that we accept Jesus. But I suppose you follow the commandments at your best, even if your doctrine practically teaches you that they are not important.
But did you ever read James?
Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works. Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble. But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead? (James 2:17-20).
Unfortunately I know that by quoting scriptures it is hard to convince people, so my best suggestion is to go read the Book of Mormon, and pray about it, and trust that the Lord will let you know the truth of all things.
In any case, good luck!
