I am finally opening my eyes to the truth

Hello,

I am finally awakening to my awful state as an LDS member and realize that we are still under condemnation. My name is Anthony and I would like to gain access to the private discussion if possible.

Thank you!

What condemnation is that? I'm an atheist and the first one to see the positive contributions the LDS church had made to the world.

Hi and welcome apsulliv,

Please ignore any trolls that appear here. Most people on this forum are open and loving, especially in the Heavenly Gift area.

It is sometimes slow getting access to the private areas as the moderators are really swamped, just be patient and it will happen. I look forward to reading yor posts and hearing your story.

Best wishes

D&C 84
54 And your minds in times past have been darkened because of unbelief, and because you have treated lightly the things you have received—
55 Which vanity and unbelief have brought the whole church under condemnation.
56 And this condemnation resteth upon the children of Zion, even all.
57 And they shall remain under this condemnation until they repent and remember the new covenant, even the Book of Mormon and the former commandments which I have given them, not only to say, but to do according to that which I have written—
Unless we read the Book of Mormon and give heed to its teachings, the Lord has stated in section 84 of the Doctrine and Covenants that the whole Church is under condemnation: “And this condemnation resteth upon the children of Zion, even all.” (D&C 84:56.) The Lord continues: “And they shall remain under this condemnation until they repent and remember the new covenant, even the Book of Mormon and the former commandments which I have given them, not only to say, but to do according to that which I have written.” (D&C 84:57.)

Now we not only need to say more about the Book of Mormon, but we need to do more with it. Why? The Lord answers: “That they may bring forth fruit meet for their Father’s kingdom; otherwise there remaineth a scourge and judgment to be poured out upon the children of Zion.” (D&C 84:58.) We have felt that scourge and judgment!
