Chips and salsa would look more like the flesh and blood of Christ. Or is it only the Catholics that go with that idea?Originally posted by smokymountainrain View Post"If there is one thing I am, it's always right." -Ted Nugent.

Been there and done that [18-month missions for all].Originally posted by wuapinmon View Post
Maybe it will be 18-month for native speaking and 2-year for learning a language. As you probably know, there was a time when "foreign" missions were 3 years and 2 years for everyone else.“Not the victory but the action. Not the goal but the game. In the deed the glory.”

nope, they're going to make them more service oriented. Service 9-5 five days a week with a legitimate charitable organization. Teaching will be in the evenings and on weekends. Members will be expected to find more people for them to teach.Originally posted by wuapinmon View PostDio perdona tante cose per un’opera di misericordia

The restoration of baptism for health...
Baptisms for health were once more common than baptisms for the dead
Most of us know about the ubiquity of the LDS Church performing baptisms for the dead in church temples. And every week in many locations there are baptisms outside temples, either converts or children when they reach eight years. However, in the first half of the LDS Church’s existence, baptisms for health were a common procedure, both in LDS temples and outside. It’s a bit of Mormon history that seems to have been tossed aside.
In Volume 34 (2008) of The Journal of Mormon History, academics Jonathan A. Stapley and Kristine Wright, authors of “They Shall Be Made Whole:” A History of Baptism For Health,” dove into the practice in great detail. They noted its origins, scriptural support, the eager support of church leaders and members, certain rules associated with it, including anointing and prayers afterward, and its eventual drop in popularity and ultimate banning in 1922. The fascinating history occurred over 80-plus years.
[...]
An interesting facet of early LDS baptisms for health, according to Stapley and Wright, is the use of baptisms for health as a tool to drive out evil spirits. There are examples in Journal of Discourses and “Millennial Stars.” Stapley and Wright write, “Several records attest to the use of baptism for health and anointing as a means of exorcism.”
In the Utah territory, baptisms for health became a periodic event for many LDS members, particularly women. With better quality fonts, the practice switched more to temples, as well as the Salt Lake City Endowment House. As the authors write, “Church members sought special healings in the temple fonts.” The practice often was a community event, done in conjunction with Fast Sunday. There were days set aside for baptisms for health at temples, add the authors.
In fact, the authors present data that shows baptisms for health to be the most common temple practice, outpacing endowments, sealings, ritual rebaptisms to re-affirm faith, etc. The authors include accounts of persons claiming to be healed as a result of the baptisms.

Well I have heard rumors a new temple film is coming soon so maybe some big changes will be a part of it. I wouldn't be surprised about a new service emphasis due to the lack of people to teach in most areas flooded with additional missionaries.Originally posted by clackamascoug View PostComment

We've already had that revelation/miracle. Yes, another revelation/miracle reversed it a few years later, but I think it's too soon for another revelation/miracle in that realm. We shouldn't get greedy.Originally posted by MarkGrace View Post

Yawn.

Do you think it's possible for you to post without using words like "hilarious," "absurd," "canard," and "truther"? Your bare assertions do not make it so. Maybe your reasoning is too stunted and your vocabulary is too limited to go without these epithets."
