23 June have any importance?

You know what day we passed right by? 23 June. What is so important about 23 June? That was the birthday of the president and prophet of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Gordon B. Hinckley. How old is he now? 95

Soon, there will be a changing of the guard. I hope that people will pray of Mr. Hinckley. If he believes in the doctrines he and his church teach, then he knows not the true Christ. Whether you have the faith the size of a mustard seed or of the statue of Moroni atop the temple steeples, if that faith is placed in a false Christ or not in Christ at all, that faith cannot save you. If your method or formula of salvation is by grace dispensed on a meritorious basis, after all the works you can do trying to achieve salvation, that foundation of works righteousness cannot save you.

When the guard does change, look forward to seeing more changes in LDS doctrine and practice, or really just how those are presented to the non-LDS community. For a good peek into the attitude changes recently in Mormonism, check out James White's (aomin.org) postings on the comparison between the Millet and McConkie book, Sustaining and Defending the Faith, written in 1985 and the recent Millet work, A Different Jesus?, which was able to lure Eerdman's into it's trap.

The people trapped (and yes they are trapped) in the LDS church need our aid as much as Muslims or Hindus or Atheists.
