Is there more than one God?

Jesus Christ revealed to mankind the nature of the Godhead who rules over this earth. As contrasted with the Old Testament, which repeatedly spoke of many Gods , as is illustrated above, the New Testament, as a result of Jesus's teachings, focuses on the three divine beings who govern this earth: God the Father, his Son Jesus Christ, and the Holy Ghost. The Book of John, especially, contains dozens of passages where the Christ explained his relationship to his Father and to the Spirit.

It's easy to be critic!

Any effort to respond to criticism, slander or misrepresentation is weighted in favor of the critic. With a single "authoritive" quote a critic can raise doubts or give an impression which might take pages to correctly understand or correct. As an example, Joseph Smith can be quoted in The Young Women's Journal (1892, vol 3, p. 263-4) that the moon is inhabited. Oliver B. Huntington is quoted as saying, "Nearly all the great discoveries of men in the last half century have, in one way or another, either directly or indirectly, contributed to prove Joseph Smith to be a prophet. As far back as 1837, I know that he said that the moon was inhabited by men and women the same as this earth, and that they lived to a greater age than we do, that they live generally to near the age of 1000 years." Since man has landed on the moon and most people today don't believe in "moon' people, we must evaluate Joseph Smith's statement. A study of the statement leav...

How do you see this/

"The Lord looketh from heaven; He beholdeth all the sons of men."--Psalm 33:13 Perhaps no figure of speech represents God in a more gracious light than when He is spoken of as stooping from His throne, and coming down from heaven to attend to the wants and to behold the woes of mankind. We love Him, who, when Sodom and Gomorrah were full of iniquity, would not destroy those cities until He had made a personal visitation of them. We cannot help pouring out our heart in affection for our Lord who inclines His ear from the highest glory, and puts it to the lip of the dying sinner, whose failing heart longs after reconciliation. How can we but love Him when we know that He numbers the very hairs of our heads, marks our path, and orders our ways? Specially is this great truth brought near to our heart, when we recollect how attentive He is, not merely to the temporal interests of His creatures, but to their spiritual concerns. Though leagues of distance lie between the finite crea...

Naanza kublogu dini, imani, sayansi na kadhalika

Katika blogu hii natarajia kuwa naendesha mijadala kadha wa kadha. Moja, dini na imani kwa lengo la kuangalia undani wa imani zetu. Je, inawezekana kuishi bila dini? Je, kuna dini ya kweli? Je, Yesu ni Mungu? Mtume Muhammad aliuanzisha Uislam? Na maswali mengine mengi. Pili, nitapitia mara kwa mara masuala ya saikolojia na falsafa nikiamini kwamba ili tuishi vizuri na nafsi zetu lazima tujitambue. Tuzifahamu nafsi zetu na kisha tuwatambue wengine. Tatu, nitarajibu kujipenyeza kwenye mijadala ya sayansi. Ningependa kuona namna sayansi inavyohusiana au kugombana na imani.. Yapo maswali lukuki. Je, sayansi inaweza kufanya kazi bila kuwepo imani? Na je imani bila sayansi, inafaa kwa lolote? Vipi sayansi na dini vinavyoweza kufanya kazi pamoja na kadhalika na kadhalika. Changamoto kubwa, sina kompyuta wala mtandao. Tutafika tu
