But I just wanted to add that along with all the wonderful reasons listed here, I also love the church because of the Relief Society. I know the Relief Society was divinely inspired. It is way more than just a class to attend on Sundays. I know that Relief Society helps us to strengthen each other, and learn charity, the pure love of Christ.Katrinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14276713147486978268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3920640965536781054.post-66147352553704667132008-04-18T12:50:00.000-05:002008-04-18T12:50:00.000-05:00Great additions.

There is such a customized diversity in <I>how</I> the Spirit guides and witnesses to each and every child of Heavenly Father: Diversity in timeframe, vehicle (everything from a girlfriend to a sworn enemy) and method (whispering, hollering, tapping on the shoulder...). It's a further testimony to me that Father intimately knows each of us and has a personal way of dealing with every child in a special way-- which, in turn, testifies of the truthfulness of the Gospel. It's enough to make one verklempt.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3920640965536781054.post-75370333048835640732008-04-10T21:37:00.000-05:002008-04-10T21:37:00.000-05:00I love you Babe and I love this list.

It's a wonder that we are permitted to make promises with a perfect eternal being and given blessings associated with them.

No other church offers ordinances for the dead.<BR/><BR/>Closely associated with #9 - The authority of the priesthood and specifically, the keys of the kingdom. We wouldn't have a leg to stand on without visits from angels who ordained Joseph Smith - miraculous!<BR/><BR/>Part of #6 - The mission of Joseph Smith. There has never been anyone quite like him. He is fascinating. Oh, I see C Jones already added this one.

We teach that there is good and truth everywhere. "Bring all the good and truth that you have and let us see if we can add to it". Unfortunately most everywhere you go on the internet (and even in person) many other churches teach or publish anti-mormon things. Very curious indeed. May it always be the case that Latter-day Saints focus on Christ in all their meetings--not on other churches.<BR/>By their fruits ye shall know them...Clean Cuthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08383123314458721660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3920640965536781054.post-64760214298348722172008-04-10T12:03:00.000-05:002008-04-10T12:03:00.000-05:00Well said.

You can't spend too much time on the internet without reading a lot of criticism of him but I don't care about his flaws. I love him for his courage and his commitment and his loyalty to his friends. And especially for his willingness to do whatever it took to give us the restorationist gospel and to organize the Church.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3920640965536781054.post-6022524929476420912008-04-10T10:51:00.000-05:002008-04-10T10:51:00.000-05:00Nice list.I also find the doctrine of Mormonism to...Nice list.<BR/><BR/>I also find the doctrine of Mormonism to be very theologically powerful, and very underrated.Eric Nielsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00530011180028252442noreply@blogger.com
