I think you are letting your bias and sectarianism get in the way. How many historical Christ's have their been? Do you really think the Mormons are speaking historically of someone other than Jesus of Nazareth? Lance wrote: > Why is it, David, that you are inclined to 'trumpet' > your good works?

I guess I should have known better, Lance. However, I only shared the last few days of blessings, hoping to demonstrate to you that I have no reason to be ticked or angry. Sharing a small portion of my last few days is hardly being inclined to trumpet my good works. How sad it is that I cannot share any kind of praise report in this forum without fear of being rebuked for having Pharisaical inclinations toward self promotion and aggrandizement. For your sake, the good Lord willing, I will henceforth try to remember to remain silent concerning such "good works" (I don't think of them as such), but I do kind of wonder if this amounts to putting my candle under a bushel. Did not Jesus teach us the following? Matthew 5:14-16 (14) Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. (15) Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. (16) Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. Peace be with you.
