Smith's own history, sermons BY made while standing in the Tabernacle and those sermons always printed in the Deseret News and compiled into, "The Journal of Discourses." Why do you fight so hard against the truth! You want to deny your own Church History? Why would your leaders print untruths?
You continued talking about James and his sin which I had asked you to stop doing because it was causing me to remember the incident that I had put behind me; and I have every reason to get angry for you gave no thought to my feelings!! It was none of your business but OH....you wanted to make it your business. There are NO sins greater in God's eye, except that of blaspheming the Holy Spirit. Even murders can be forgiven if they repent and are sincere in doing so.
Now answer me a question. Why can I have the same experiences you've had, where I've have felt the Holy Spirit so strong, have had prayers answered, been reading my scriptures and have had a WOW, moment when what I had just read opened my mind to a whole new understanding which I had never known before? Why as I was sitting in the temple to be married, I heard a voice three times telling me to, "get up! leave, you do not belong here!" Then feeling as if someone was trying to pull me out of my seat? Do evil spirits dwell in your temples and that was what I heard and felt that day? Had it not been for people like you and I would still be trapped in Mormonism for the things I experienced growing up and after marrying James, opened my eyes and caused me to question. After that it was all down hill and I soon knew I had been lied to my entire life! Don't tell me that you are the only one who has the right to experience anything! You get angry as well Julie! You did yesterday by calling James a liar! It is clear why you did that, because you can't stand hearing the truth. Believe me when I tell you it's not fun realizing your leaders are liars, men who's only thoughts were chasing after other men's wives, committing crimes against our country, crimes against people in their own city, (the destruction of the Expositor, ordered by J. Smith and his gang of 50) ordering the murder of innocent people who only wanted to p*** through Utah to get to California, should I go on? I think you have said quite enough for your heart is hardened against the true and living God, not your god who was once a man, (I'm talking about God the Father). Oh, and if this is the case and your god progressed to his lofty position, who does he worship? It is a pyramid scheme, climbing ever higher and higher til you reach the very top? Who then is the top god, and shouldn't we be worshipping him?
Go ahead and knock my prayer for it only shows me how little you really know about me. My prayer was sincere for I know and have experienced the loss of friends and the relationship I had with my family because of leaving your church but God is always there, he has never left my side for a moment. Even during some very dark days dealing with James health problems where I felt abandoned, God was there, it was me who abandoned Him. I know the hurt and the anger when discovering the truth that the whole idea of Mormonism was based on lies. A man who wanted power and control over people. A man who gave little thought to his own wife going after other women and even married women, sending their husband's on missions so he could entice their wives while these men were gone. How sick is that? My prayers continue for all LDS that the Holy Spirit will begin to work in their hearts and minds so they can know the truth. "For the truth shall set you free". (John 8:23)
