New Rumor.

President Nielson may talk about the need for each of us to have a personal visit with Jesus Christ himself. That is a long shot, and I don't want to divulge my source,...but there you go.

Remember in the JS days how the way to keep the people in the "boat" was for JS to ramp up the detail and hype of his visions? The whole First Vision came from something like stopping the apostasy in Kirtland.

My opinion is something similar is gunna happy again...or at least that is the rumor that is coming through the channels I know about now.

That sounds like the opposite of where they've been headed. More like Snufferism.

One of the biggest issues I can see with the Potf is the reference to heavenly parents. There are very few overt references to the Heavenly Mother. Canonisation would be a look at me red flag that could go viral purely because of it's unique positioning within Modern Christianity.

That the Church's Intellectual Reserve, Inc., was purchasing unused assets from Cambridge Analytica to "only assist with and be used in the pursuit of genealogical endeavors".
Good faith does not require evidence, but it also does not turn a blind eye to that evidence. Otherwise, it becomes misplaced faith.

That is the year when young Sir Reginald Casper met with an unfortunate accident and became a spiritual friend to Miss Wendy Cavendish of Bedfordshire.

The rumor is being investigated that Cambridge Analytica used targeted messages from Joseph L. Bishop to encourage Facebook Mormons to vote for Donald Trump, according to noted fact checker Paul H. Dunn.

Hilarious. I remember being a Sunbeam and thinking that the Holy Ghost and Casper were the same personage of spirit.
