Not to offend anyone, I'm just trying to understand a little better your belief in the trinity. Do you believe that God and Christ are separate beings, working as one, or are they the same being with different roles?

Do you believe that other religions (even other Christian sects) are able to give salvation with what they teach?

If you look at Matt 7:14-20, it explains how we can know a false prophet from a real one, but how do you discern a true one from a false one? If there is a real one out there, would you take the time to find out if they are real or not, or just assume that they are false? If you found a true prophet, what would you do? If someone passed this tests of a true prophet, would you believe them?

For those who believe in resurrection, what do you believe happens to our bodies once resurrection has occurred? Do we keep them? If not, then what is your belief about what happens after?

Do you believe that Christ still has His body? If not, where did it go? Do you think it's possible that He has a perfected, eternal body?

I know that people say it states the trinity clearly in the bible. That isn't what I want. I want the history of HOW the doctrine came to be doctrine.

Please be respectful to other beliefs.

Where do you get your info on what the LDS church believes? Is it all from the internet? Or from what a preacher/minister/pastor said? From books? I am just curious as to where you get information against the church.

I know there are many people who believe in this concept, but I'm not quite sure what they are referring to. Scriptures would be helpful too!! Thanks!

What is your personal opinion as to what "it" was? Please be respectful to others, and let me know what you think Christ meant by this statement. Thanks!!

Do you think that David is similar to Cain? That their sins were both sins of jealousy? And what happened to David after his sin? Was he forgiven? Was he not?

This will require some scripture study, so get out your bibles and go to work!! Hint: Look in Psalms!

What do you consider to be works? I know there are many who say that we are saved by faith, and that is all, that works don't play a part in salvation. But, no one ever says what they consider to be works.

Also, considering that many times in the scriptures it says that we should follow the commandments. Are following them works, or is that just something you do? I'm trying to narrow down what people's definition of works are so I can understand their position better.

I'm trying to understand why it is you don't celebrate holidays. Where in the scriptures does it say this shouldn't be done? Don't you ever want to celebrate a birthday, or the day you were married? I can understand not wanting to buy into all the Christmas or Easter stuff. Can you still give gifts to each other on anniversaries or birthdays?

Please, anyone who answers, be respectful to what others believe.

I think that if Huckabee is elected, we should all leave and live in Mexico. We could work in California for the big bucks and then get great rates on real estate in Mexico. I think it sounds fitting. Take money out of the US and put it into an economy that really needs it.

It said "If you are pro-war, you can't be pro-life". What are you thoughts on this?

What do you consider works? When we talk about faith with or without works being part of salvation. What do you consider works, and what do you consider just "part of the deal"?

Do you believe you will be with family? Do you believe you will know other people in whatever heaven you believe in? Do you think it will be sitting around on a cloud and playing a harp, or is it more then that?

If Christ and God are the same being, why would God have to give Christ anything? Wouldn't He already have it? I'm not meaning to be disrespectful, or rude. I really am curious about this. I have a hard time figuring out the Trinity doctrine. So I'm asking people to explain it to me.

Do you believe that God still talks to us now, or are the heavens closed to further revelation?
