good post--thx, Bill--post when
you can--do the others ahead of mine...are you, is anybody staying in touch with
DebbieS(?)--(i think) she may need to take time for TT whether she has it
or not, like many of us do..
G
Oh-my-gosh, Lance! If I could only begin to see
things in the depth and detail that you do. I stretch my brain to the breaking
point every time I write. You, on the other hand, dabble in this and still
blow most of us away.
Bill
By the way Judy, Izzy, G, and DaveH, I will be working on
responses to your very intriguing posts from yesterday. Please be patient,
though, as you asked a bunch of questions. I will respond the best I can to
all of them. Good stuff.

Neither of them is on TT. Hmmmm maybe they're
'lurkers'. Again, you did MTP, Judy. Kevin isn't playing in the same league
as Sandra Tanner in the same way that I'm not in the same league as Bill
Taylor.

Dear Sweet Lance, you are always so
uplifting. Now why did you have to write something like this to
Kevin. Have you met or spoken in person with him? I'm sure he's not
a girly man so he would bear little physical resemblance to Sandra Tanner
but before you accuse me of MTP - I know this was not your point. You
appear to be a master of the put down and for what purpose? Would
you speak this way to Bruce Cockburn or the Pope?
I've spoken with, and have listened to,
Sandra Tanner. Sandra, though your sister in Christ, bears little
resemblance to you.
From another Ministry
[The following was forwarded to me from Sandra Tanner at the Utah
Lighthouse Ministry:] Hello, Several years ago someone gave me a Track
"Six things they won't tell you in the Temple Square". I read it when
I got home as the brothers I was with thought it was trash. I came to
Jesus Christ this year and I think the seed you planted in this
message helped me find my way to salvation. I found the track in the
book I was carrying that day. I was clearing out my library of junk
and found the book. I could not through out the paper you so patiently
handed out that day. I will never know who handed this to me. All I
know is the seed was planted and held and studied until I finally left
the church and then started looking for the real truth. I go to
Calvary Chapel here in Reno and am well founded in the Bible and being
born again is a joy and a burden at times. I'm sorry for rambling on.
I really wanted to give you thanks and my prayers in your service to
God. I am doing the same now. I have several Mormons at work and they
really don't know how to handle someone from the "inside" who can
answer every lie they hold. So far every time they get stuck they
bring out the real bible (NKJV) and find the truth is bigger than all
of us. My actual dealing with all Mormons goes right to the heart of
the faith. Joseph Smith, he is factually and biblically a false
prophet and nothing he said came true and when you study the bible and
his history. It shows the faith of the LDS church is void.
From my heart thank you whoever you were who stood out on
the street and boldly gave me this simple piece of paper that
has brought me to the truth. Not exactly the way I would have thought
God would have done things, but accepted just the same. Thank you and
May God Bless all in his service working as you do. Bob Rea [For a
more detailed statement, see Bob's testimony.]
[I responded:] Hi Bob, Wow! I just got this forwarded to me from
the Utah Lighthouse Ministry, since I was the one who wrote the tract
[now entitled "Seven Differences between Mormonism and
Christianity"] and probably the one who gave it to you. Thanks so
much for writing and making my day! You are more than welcome for the
tract! God is so gracious to let me get this from you this side of
heaven. I'm reminded how many others will not write, yet their lives
are brand new in Christ, and I won't find out about it until I get to
heaven.
I'm also thankful for your note, since, believe it or not, there
are even a lot of Christians who don't like me doing any type of
ministry in front of the Temple. Too many Christians, if they do any
type of ministry, invest much of their lives cultivating relationships
in hopes that they'll see conversions with their handful of friends.
Though we should be doing this, I submit the problem becomes when we
rule out other modes of evangelism that would allow us to have more of
an impact on this world.
...Finally, welcome to the family of God! It's about time, but
better late than never. ;>P Your bro,
Do you Yahoo!?
