Mormon Doctrine (original) (raw)

Eeeeekkkkk!!!! [06 Oct 2006|03:48pm]
[ **mood** | sad ] I am OFFICIALLY the WORST moderator EVER!!! I haven't posted in this community since May!!! Sorry! I've been busy with work and college! But...I have a special treat coming up this Sunday for all of you! So, make sure to check out the page Monday morning! ^_^ Let me know if you guys want more uplifting quotes, more open discussions or what. The last thing I want thoug is for this community to become like the mormon community. I left there because of religious differences. LOL. They misinterpreted everything. Or, atleast just about everything. Enough about other communities. I don't really want to bash. Just give me some ideas and I'll definately consider them! ^_~ *~*Marlene*~*

Daily Scripture [27 Apr 2006|11:09am]
[ **mood** | hungry ] Today's Scripture: 15 And if it so be that you should labor all your days in crying repentance unto this people, and bring, save it be one soul unto me, how great shall be your joy with him in the kingdom of my Father! 16 And now, if your joy will be great with one soul that you have brought unto me into the kingdom of my Father, how great will be your joy if you should bring many souls unto me! - Doctrine & Covenants 18: 15-16 This next one has to do with yesterday's quote: 18 Ask the Father in my name, in faith believing that you shall receive, and you shall have the Holy Ghost, which manifesteth all things which are expedient unto the children of men. - Doctrine & Covenants 18: 18Enjoy!*~*Marlene*~*

Welcome ctrringstrue & galvyn !! [26 Apr 2006|10:28am]
[ **mood** | accomplished ] Okay...So with Andrew (firestorm713) serving his mission in Norway, this community has taken it's REALLY long pauses. oyy. >.<I apologize for that.Andrew (firestorm713) will continue being a moderator and I will ocassionally post some of his inspirational letters on to the site...but, I'd like to introduce 2 new moderators! One who has already introduced herself.. =P Nessa (ctrringstrue), and Jay (galvyn) who will also be working with Nessa and I in keeping this community up and running! Please keep in mind that they are moderators...please respect them!I would like to leave this community **open for suggestions** as to the next lessons. I would like to continue the Book of Mormon thing I started a while back...if you all think that would be a good idea, I'd love to start it back up again. ^_^I also thought a "daily scripture and/or quote" would be another great thing to start back up. Andrew used to have a short Sunday devotional...we'll see ow we can work that out.Okay, so we all have our "specialties" when it comes to the LDS religion. I, personally love Doctrine & Covenants and the Book of Mormon. I know them well. I love studying the life of the Prophets. Maybe we call all learn to study the scriptures more effectively? ^_~I'd like to leave the choice up to the community members though as to what you think should be taught. galvyn, ctrringstrue and I will discuss as to who will teach what lesson. ^_^Okay... submit your opinion now!Your Mod/Maintainer,*~*Marlene*~*

Today's Quote [13 Feb 2006|12:16pm]
[ **mood** | calm ] "Every person who comes to earth is a spirit son or daughter of God.Since all love emanates from God, we are born with the capacity and the desire to love and to be loved. One of the strongest connections we have with our premortal life is how much our Father and Jesus loved us and how much we loved Them. Even though a veil was drawn over our memory, whenever we sense true love, it awakens a longing that cannot be denied." -John GrobergShare your thoughts!

Pray for my friend [04 Jan 2006|08:30pm]
My best friend had her brother shot and killed on monday night while he was serving a mission. He was out doing door to door work in Chesepeake Virginia. I'm asking ya'll to pray for her and her family at this time. They have found a gun. It was not a hate crime, and was unrelated to him being on a mission or being mormon. He was shot because he and his companion had witnessed another crime. Wrong place at the wrong time. I do not know how my friend is doing, she and her family were rushed out to Virginia Monday night by a church official, the Elder died about an hour before they arrived, they were still on the plane. Please, I am asking you to pray for the Young family at this time of grief. I have been praying since I heard about my friends brother. Thanks.
