my first thoughts too about the difficulty for the Church of the Community of Christ to sell these precious properties. I don’t see this purchase as a WIN like conquering “more truth”. like you said it so beautifully, The Church is now a new steward over these properties. The truth and good will of a church is not defined what is owned, possessed or controlled or whatever power it may have over “things”… by any church or persons.
😊😊😊
Thank mo
Bet Joe and Brigham were hurting little 14 year old girls in that building
So excited. I've been to the Nauvoo Temple but not Kirtland yet.
GOOD news! Finally! Great folks in both churches, time to unite.
In the name of God Jesus Christ amen.
A great and true church. I love this church.
Never been there looking forward to doing it with my family
SOON THE NEW JERUSALEM WILL BE BUILT
They didn't get the temple lot in MO here :)
Money laundering activity of Krusty Nelson and Co
People who believe this scare me.
Alright, exciting news to hear!!!
I toured that temple in 2010 for $2, knowing that it would be the only temple I could ever be in. I wonder when they will start excluding the "unworthy"? They have hurt so many people by this "Unworthiness" nonsense. I wish they would stop it.
VERY GOOD NEWS..GOD IS WITH US🤗😉👍🏻❤❤❤❤❤😑🙏🏻
They are just laundering the money before the rest figure out the terrible lie.
I’m sorry my scripture was 1 Peter 3:16 Not 2 Peter 3:16
Yayayay !!!🎉 now it can be earthquake proofed so it doesn’t crumble on the next earthquake
Earthquakes in Ohio are very, very rare.
@@Ric9hardify you haven’t heard of the New Madrid 1811-12 Earthquakes then, nor that we are due for one. These quakes were felt all the way in Boston and San Francisco

Wow!! 🎉 Revoke the Mormon Church's non-profit status!
If only 😂 this country LOVES to give tax exempt statuses to large corporations disguised as churches, for some reason 🤷🏻♀️
@@sinisterhug1394 I have attended the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in many states and countries, and it's obviously a wonderful Church. I'm sorry you have negative feelings about it.
I get your feelings. Your are not talking to the right audience, and also, the revocation of the 501c3 status is not a democratically decided upon status but one that the IRS grants when certain requirements are met. Personally I agree with you about the root of corruption stemming from power over and the exercise of unrighteous dominion. The Lord knows it all and it will be rectified like everything else, not invalidating what Joseph Smith has contributed too under the leadership of Christ.
@@00Fisher00 regardless if there are good people in the church, are you okay with it’s objective history though?
@@sinisterhug1394 I've studied the history of the modern Church of Jesus Christ quite a bit. God is doing wonderful things in our time.
😊
Not sure how this helps the poor, the hungry and sick. Obviously community of Christ is distancing themselves from the crazy history and already did with bom and pearl of great price. They will put the money to use to help people.
Think you’ve answered your own question there 😂, …they will put the money to use, to help people 🎉
The Community of Christ is extremely transparent in regards to their finances and percentage wise, they do *_substantially_* more than The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints does with their money, so maybe The Community of Christ will be more Christ centered on the expenditure of their new found wealth.
@@jaybravo2199 The Church spent a billion dollars on Humanitarian aid last year.
@@spideyN8R good for them… most of that is from fast offerings, and when compared to their massive financial portfolio, it’s a small percentage of their value and income. I’ve worked for a for-profit organization who had a much larger donation base percentage wise.
Again, good for them… the Community of Christ, earmarks a much larger percentage for charitable causes.
@@jaybravo2199 Actually fast offerings go to the Ward and Stake, not to the general humanitarian fund.
Great now another facility to recite the mason ceremony
Try from the time of Christ long before the masons existed..... in egypt they found mummies of early christians buried there in the 1980's. Quite an interesting read that was.
Also.... this temple doesn't have the same rooms as modern temples have so that's not happening like you say. Lastly, its going to stay as a Historic site, it was announced as such.
Go visit some time and learn what things actually are rather than making assumptions.
@@ShiningSakura This isn't even making assumptions, this is just reciting the same old anti-mormon rhetoric. Yet they all claim "to think for themselves."
@@ShiningSakura uhhhhh no. Masonic ritual have a very definitive start and documented evolution to what they are today. According to the Masons themselves, they were developed in the late 17th century. A person has to be extremely naive or blind to not see the stark similarities of LDS temple rites and Masonic rituals, especially when the temple rites were first instituted by Joseph Smith.
@@jaybravo2199 I'm not naive, I'm talking about something that predates that. Try looking it up.
@@ShiningSakura Try looking what up? You left a vague response talking about alleged Christian mummies in Egypt and saying things were around before mason existed.
Now that a church, not these megachurches tgar have no soul
The trillion dollar Giga cult headed up by Krusty Nelson and founded by a savage who helped himself to 14 year olds. Doesn't get any more soulless than that.
Can't be more soulless than the giga-cutt
Death, taxes, ex-Mormons who can’t leave the church alone in the comment section….
Can't let the cult keep defrauding and abusing my family
Just the other day missionaries from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints knocked on my door again... after being told to leave us alone on multiple occasions. Our local LDS congregation keeps reaching to my children without consulting me, despite being asked not to do so.
The church deserves the criticism... no organization should be above critical review.
Evil only wins when good people stand by and do nothing. Consider ex-mormons the stand against evil.
Such a blatant PR move to distract from the Jodi Hildebrandt case.
If anything they should be paying reparations the Franke children as well as anyone else that was referred to Jodi for "therapy."
What does this have to do with the Hildebrandt case?
@@sbdno10 Oh please, don't act as though the church didn't play a part in what happened.
And now instead of helping the victims, they're adding to their property portfolios and calling it a win for God.
@@rebeccacall7348 Where is your proof?
I truly want to meet you since you must be the only perfect PURE mortal to walk the earth.
The LDS church does not FORCE people to do or not do anything. Each of us has our own choices to make, and there is pure evil everywhere.
Just because you have made an erroneous opinion based on unfortunate experiences with the Church doesn't give you Carte Blanche to take your incredibly broad brush and label an entire group of people.
In 1962, the Church was on the brink of bankruptcy. They brought folks in that made them adhere to a strict budget, be frugal in all they do, and make wise investments to make the Lord's money grow.
If you would like to forfeit any and ALL things that have meaning to you or your loved ones, please be my guest. But when ANY religious organization has the funds, and chooses to purchase buildings and items that hold a significant part of their history, they have every right.
The Church spends BILLIONS helping the poor and needy every year, but for some reason, that is not enough for you and your ilk.
@@sbdno10they are a cult of abuse. Many of us have the scars to show for it. I have an unshakable testimony that the abuse comes right from the top. I have seen it. Gaslighting won't work here
@@rebeccacall7348 gaslighting and cognitive dissonance. You can lie to yourself and gullible people but it doesn't change facts.
And theocracy farts again.
The Bible refutes Mormonism
I left linkedin because of endless meaningless quotations and citations by the majority of others seemingly more important people. And so I ask anyone always referring to the Bible as supporting or refuting anything, Do you not have anything ORIGINAL to say that comes from God to you directly? What is the Bible, or actually what are SCRIPTURES? God has spoken to men and these stories and experiences and instructions have then been recorded? Has God stopped talking to men? Does not God speak to all and anyone of us? Sure prophets receive instructions from God that they direct us with. He is your father in heaven. so is the Bible, The Word dead? Has God seized to speak? What does the Bible do or say? Is “refuting” something saying something? hope this is seen as education about God’s Living Words.
I haven't read anything in the Bible that does. Do you have an example?
Proof? I know that the Korean version of the Bible has totally omitted verses that they do not have an equivalent word to use in their translation.
From Hebrew to Greek and on down the line portions of the original manuscript have been set aside, or ignored altogether. A council of MEN made decisions for the entire Christian community in Nicea about 300 AD. Many of those interpretations are even contrary to Bible scripture.
So please, show me the proof instead of spouting the same old language that goes against LDS teachings!
Book of Mormon is super racist. So much it had to be corrected many many times
@@monyetgoblog7038 Again... Proof? Never been "corrected."
I do not care to here about these false religions
We will always love to share our faith with you!
Then dont watch them.
NO ONE IS HOLDING YOU AS A PRISONER HERE..LEAVE🚶♀️ SOFTLY, QUIETLY...GOD BLESS YOU❤😑🙏🏻
IT IS NOT FALSE..L👀K AT YOURSELF IN YOUR MIRROR..🤔 DO YOU SEE YOURSELF, YOUR THE ONE REJECTING GOOD NEWS SWEET EARTH SISTER ..I, WILL PRAY FOR YOU DEAR😑🙏🏻..HUGS🤗💋💋💋KISSES..I THINK YOU NEED THIS BADLY...GOD IS AT WORK❤❤❤❤❤😑🙏🏻
Then why did you comment 💀
Most definitely important to buy more property when there are people starving on the streets right outside your main temple downtown.
Okay Judas
The church feeds and pays people’s rent every day. Bet there was Deseret Food cans in your pantry as a kid, bet they paid your moms rent.
It’s all about the Benjmins, money talks.
The Salt Lake temple isn't our main temple, in fact there is no such thing. But anyway, come on down to welfare square and we'll show you what feeding the hungry looks like.
Did you know the community of christ who owned it was in the hole over 100,000,000 in pensions owed???? that's partly why it was sold. There were other buyers wanting it, that's why the high cost. That sale now helps that church get sorted out on their financial woes so they can better outreach their mission around the world. They were needing for money for a long time now; though I'm sure this is the last property they wanted to give up that they owned. This wipes out all of that in one go.
They also sold precious documents worth more than any priceless book montitarily sold before it as well as some other historic buildings that can continue to be loved by many visitors in the future. That's the rest of the money spent and they had to be fairly compensated for their good stewardship thus far for it and the priceless nature of the artifacts sold.
It was a well worth trade in my opinion as now the community of christ church can focus on Christ and their outreach for good rather than their byond empty pockets. Now its up to them to keep it that way and do good with it.
Their are always reasons behind stuff that happens... try doing some investigative work before you assume next time because you hold a grudge against others having large sums of money. ;D
