Yes, Judy, we have been over this befroe. And nowhere in any Bible I have in my collectional is there a statemnt of any kind that mildly suggests that Samson repented of his womanizing ways..... not a hint. At the same time -- he acknowledges the God of his fathers and relies on Him in the only ways he (Samson) can................. spiritually speaking, a very immature child of God, but a believers.

JD we've been over and over and over and over this; apparently you can't learn and so
it looks like Samson will forever be a reprobate in your eyes. jt

I think the unspoken assumption here is that unlike King David, Joseph Smith never repented of his adultery, but rather gave prophecies which justified it and pronounced curses upon his original wife Emma if she did not accept his other women. Jesus taught us to spot false prophets by their fruit. We don't gather grapes from thistles, and so we expect godly character from true prophets and ungodly character from false prophets. Note that Balaam was a false prophet not because he failed to speak for Yahweh, nor because he spoke falsely in his name, but because he had a covetous heart. Peace be with you.
