How the Lord will clean his church: a possible scenario

Disclaimer: This is my opinion. I haven’t received inspiration, revelation or any such communication or confirmation from the Spirit concerning the following. It is just what I think will be the causes that allow the church finally to be sanctified, in preparation for the Lord’s Second Coming. I will try to keep this post short [...]

The faith of God, part twelve: Truth

Continued from part eleven. Ye were also in the beginning with the Father; that which is Spirit, even the Spirit of truth; and truth is knowledge of things as they are, and as they were, and as they are to come; and whatsoever is more or less than this is the spirit of that wicked [...]

My take on the FLDS raid

It’s a smokescreen. A distraction. The real story that Americans are not being told is that there is a (planned) food shortage of enormous proportions happening right now that will affect every man, woman and child in this country (and other countries) who does not have a one, two or three years’ worth of food [...]

Why the long process?

I know a couple of ladies in the church—one married, one divorced—who have gone to their bishops to confess to breaking the law of chastity and both were told to stop partaking of the sacrament, the other also being forced to surrender her temple recommend. Now, it has been well over two years for both [...]

Other prophets and their scriptures

Over the years I have come across an assortment of people claiming to be prophets, translate ancient records, etc., who are not part of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I find the whole of it to be a fulfillment of the prophecies of the holy prophets: True Prophets And it shall come [...]

The faith of God, part eleven: Why knowledge doesn’t save

Continued from part ten. A new visitor (RWW) to this blog recently made the following comment: I must take issue with your statement that “A man is not saved by knowledge. A man is saved by faith.” I am fairly new to your blog, so I may be misunderstanding your meaning, but taken at face [...]

My extended fast journal

After writing about the physical benefits of extended fasting, I decided to try it myself. As I’ve never engaged in an extended fast, this is my first foray into Moses, Gandhi, Alma and Jesus territory. I am seeking both spiritual and physical blessings with this fast and will report what I learn. My goal is [...]

Follow the leader: satanic in nature?

Disclaimer: Although I am the author of this post, it really is the idea of what4anarchy. I invited him to participate in this blog when I first started it, but he declined due to concerns over anonymity. Still, there are many topics of his that I’d like to broach. This particular one is from his [...]

Intellectuals

The recent uploading of the Moura “Joseph Smith” Daguerreotype has brought a lot of attention (and criticism) to this blog, especially from intellectual quarters. Intellectuals and myself are like water and oil: we don’t mix, at all. In order to explain why I’ll have to get a little personal… When I was just a kid, [...]

LDS Anarchy blog listed as Best Radically Faithful Blog by SLWeekly.com

Whoohoo! More press! This blog was listed under the Best of Utah 2008: Media & Politics section, on page three. (Shhhh…don’t tell them, though, that this ain’t no Utah blog.) P.S. This is the second time that Salt Lake City Weekly magazine has written about the LDS Anarchy blog. Many gracious thanks to them. Complete [...]
