Julie, what you don't seem to understand about heaven is that we will NOT be like we are here. No longer feeling pain nor sorrow. We will no longer think as we do here i.e. bad thoughts, sad thoughts; all those things will be gone. God has promised that He would wipe away every tear. There can be no anger, fear or loneliness, want nor evil thoughts, remember this is heaven.James, remember where Paul teaches us that without charity, it doesn't matter how much you "speak with the tongues of angels."
I don't think you realizy how much you or Bilyray have impressed me with how uncharitable you are. As I said, if heaven was filled with people like you, I would prefer not to be there.
Don't worry that you may have to be in heaven with James. Our past Stake President told both of us that we'd be sent to the telestial kingdom, the place where King David was sent. WOW! we said, we will be with King David, whom God called a man after His own heart? I am sorry that you feel James is divisive and a hypocrite when he is doing what Christ commanded.....to go out and preach the gospel to every creature. Seems to me that you are being like the Pharisees and Elders of Christ's day, blaming Christ for all the problems and causing THEM to feel uncomfortable because His words made them feel guilty. Even your own prophet said that Satan can appear as an angel of light, fooling many. How do you know your experiences were from God and not Satan? Anyone can get a good feeling about anything if they want it bad enough.
I have shared with you a couple of times that even when I was a young child I felt different growing up in the LDS Church. All I can explain to you is that the Lord had His plan for me but I was to young to recognize it. It took me many years before I came to the conclusion that Mormonism was wrong. Sad that it was the temple that opened my eyes and brought me to where I am today because sitting there going through all the vile ceremony, the Holy Spirit spoke to me to get up, leave, you don't belong here! If the LDS temple is the most sacred place where certainly no evil spirit could enter, then what did I hear and why did I feel something pushing on me to stand up? That experience has stayed with me all this time but I know it was the Lord's way of getting me to realize the truth. Sometimes the truth hurts but it's necessary. Just as a surgeon's scalpel hurts but is necessary to get inside the body to repair or remove something that is broken, cancerous or infected. Afterward, that person can heal and become whole again. That is James' and my wish for you, to be whole and show you the way to the narrow road which will lead you to eternal life.
