Would you deny God and the Church if.... - Page 2

[quote]So, to answer your question: DEATH BEFORE DISHONOR![/quote]

Yeah, but is it really dishonor to say what the person holding you hostage wants to hear in order to get out of the situation as long as you know you will never really worship Satan?  

I believe there are many instances in the bible where we see examples of this.  For example when Abraham says Sarah is his sister so he won't be killed.  She wasn't his sister, but did it matter if the Egyptians thought she was if it saved his life?  Should he have said death before dishonor in this case?  

I would not worship Satan to save my life, but I might tell someone I would if it were a non-binding statement to save my life.

Tena, yes! I agree with you. This is realistic in my opinion.
Kd, I understand your opinion and I respect it but let's face it, talking so bold about it and being in the same situation I suppose are two different things even more when we are not talking about our own life but the lives of our children.

Would you deny God and the Church if.... Studies Doctrine Mormon

I would have to say I would not save the life of my child to deny the God.
It would hurt, but I know where they are going and that we are sealed together. I will miss them in this life but, I could not live with myself if ever I denied God for any.
I hope and pray that I never have to deal with any such thing.  I fear being tortured to deny.  I will not, I will pray to be taken quickly if possible.  More importantly.  I am willing to live for The Gospel and the Church.

I do not believe death is terrible.  If our lives depend on our faith and belief, will we be able to live with ourself if we lie? How can we face others, knowing we lied about one of the most important things ever? ? ? !!!!!  Deny the Lord!  I think not! How will you face Him when He asked what you chose? Death is NOT to be feared - our children will have the opportunity to be raised in the millenium if they die before the age of accountablity.  

The time will come when you will be asked to deny your faith, the Lord, Heavenly Father - they would never trust you if you lied - they would know - they would know.





ps - yes I am a mother AND a grandmother - I would rather they live with Heavenly Father than with those who will be asking the questions.
