Ask A Mormon: Can you be baptized after death?

Mormons believe that “God is no respecter of persons” (Acts 10:34). He loves all of his children, regardless of when or where they were born. We also believe that baptism, and the covenants we make at baptism, are stepping stones on the path to salvation and exaltation.

Ask A Mormon: Do Mormons believe they will become gods?

Latter-day Saints believe that every life — our spirits, our souls, the essence of who we are — is eternal.

Ask A Mormon: Do Mormons stockpile goods?

Are Mormons Preppers? Why and where and for how long do they stockpile goods? Why is this, is there an eschatological reason?

Oh, the refreshing power of forgiveness
as I feel the rains of mercy upon my face
its cleansing beauty sinks deep within

The tears of repentance mix with
the waters of new life
Reconciliation, peace, and healing are born

The boundaries between you and I
and I and God
are no more

Rain down upon our thirsty ground
Oh waters of mercy
cleanse our hungry land

To receive you melts the soul
and sinks deep down into
the vulnerability of every cell

Humbly we accept your gift
with praise and gratitude,
renewed, born again, transformed.
