Lately I’ve been rethinking an assumption I made years ago when comparing and contrasting The Book of Commandments (1833) and The Doctrine and Covenants (1835). The original version of Section 20 provided the same baptismal prayer that Jesus instructed the Nephites to use while the Doctrine and Covenants […]
In Deuteronomy 18 we read the incredible prophecy about Jesus Christ. What most people don’t realize is that there is another prophecy two verses ahead that is speaking of the prophet Joseph Smith. Let’s read: 15 ¶The Lord thy God will raise up unto thee a Prophet from […]
Last night, perusing the scriptures, a story from Mark spoke volumes to my soul. Christ and his disciples come across, “a man with an unclean spirit.” (Mark 2:4) The text describes the man as always being in the mountains and tombs, “crying and cutting himself with stones.” (verse […]
Someone online sent me a music video. Normally I’m not one to listen to music like “Ke$ha” but the title of her latest song was, “Praying.” This intrigued me enough to give the song a listen. I was blown away by it. Kesha is seeing the first lights […]

As an active-going LDS-attendee, I can say with utmost assurance that what I’m saying is truth: Mormons don’t believe in Jesus. At least, not as Christians do. Jesus Christ has been removed as the main character. “Heavenly Father” took the central role. Why is this? Because Mormons are […]
Two nights ago I began praying very fervently for Donald J. Trump, which was almost a surprise to me. I’ve never prayed for anyone in government before, ever. If you’re as crazy as me, you believe all people in power are pedophiles and/or satanists. When I hear Hilary […]
In my search to understand more fully the prophetic events of The Book of Revelation–and how they are coming to pass in our current day–I came across an interesting website written by a Christian man who believes himself to be a prophet. Interesting enough, I find a lot […]
I believe in guardian angels. I believe every single one of us has an angel assigned to us that is keeping watch over us. Although it sounds like a worldly concept, I think it derives from God’s truth. I realized it while reading through the gospels. Something that resonated […]
