Blaine,
Do you really believe that you have the power to pronounce that someone
"is" a Christian, or "is not" a Christian? Those are mighty big shoes that
you are trying to fill. If, however, you are just stating your opinion, and
not stating something that you "know" for sure, it would be beneficial to
say so.
Instead of accusing Kevin of preaching "highly personalized doctrines", I
would like to suggest that you state one of his highly personalized
doctrines and give him a chance to demonstrate whether it is his doctrine,
or Biblical doctrine. Otherwise, I donl;t think you can say what you say
with integrity.

Blainerb: I agree with your comment, Kevin--but the question is, who are
the false Christs and false spirits? Kevin, everything you say to berate
Mormons is a double-edged sword. And it always ends up cutting back in
your
direction. You are not even a Christian. You are a Kevinite, who
preaches
highly personalized doctrines. You pick and choose from the buffet of
Christian
doctrines and doctrines of men, mix them together into a nice salad made
to
suit your personal tastes, and that's what we get on TT. You label it
Christianity, but it is far from it.

Blainer: You have hit on the right issue, alright. There is a teaching
in
the LDS church that Satan for all practical purposes is the god of this
world, ie., Lord of the spiritual wickedness that is "of the world," and
not of
God. In other words, Satan has a lot of power to work through the
influence of
men and women who allow themselves to be overcome spiritually by the
worldly
powers. Just for instance, I remember watching TV one evening, and there
was this beautiful young woman who felt sooo complimented and honored
because
she had been chosen to be a Playboy Playmate, and was allowed to ride in
Hugh
Hefner's limosine. She thought she had really "arrived." :>) She
really
was at the top of the ladder, I suppose, its just that she had her ladder
leaning against the wrong wall in the first place. There is Satan's wall,
and
then there is God's wall. We have to be careful to lean our ladders
against
the right wall. As your scriptures indicate, the god of this "world" (of
wickedness) is definitely Satan.
