Why do some religions believe that if you ACCEPT Jesus Christ as your PERSONAL SAVIOR you will be SAVED – EVEN if you are a horrible mortal throughout your life and you ACCEPT him on your death bed YOU WILL BE SAVED – how is THIS different than what Mormons do -

We do NOT go to heaven by our deeds but by faith and the grace of God (John 3:16). The deed of baptising mass murderers, who have no regard for man and God, does nothing…. nothing but make the water dirty.

I find it very strange that these muderers have been baptized after they are dead because live murderers can not be baptized in the Mormon church. They consider it the unforgivable sin. I knew a man once who had served his sentance for murder, was very repentant, and wanted to be baptized in the Mormon church. They denied him baptism. So this is indeed VERY strange!

To be honest the baptizing the dead disturbs me. They have baptized mass murderers and also POPE JOHN PAUL II (i am pretty sure he had no problem finding Jesus) , who knows my grandmother could have been baptized. I don’t want to die and be baptized into the mormon church, I was baptized as a baby and if I wanted to be a mormon I would have converted. I have nothing against the religion, a religion is a religion believe what you want to believe, but the baptizing of the dead scares me.

“There was a viewing area behind a big glass wall for select elders of the church to view the baptisms.
A proxy was used and would enter into the sunken pool and be baptised for some dead person as these elders would watch them. The regular congregation is not allowed in this area.”

–

This is very untrue. Any member of the church with a temple recomemend can be here and do the baptisms, men and women all the way day to teens when they turn 14 years old can go.

I have done baptisms for the dead myself, and it is not creepy at all. It is a service we feel, and these people have every right to reject it as well. Also, I don’t know if these serial killers have had their work done, however, if they had, then they it would not give them any great standing in heaven. They will be punished for their crimes one way or another, whether they choose to accept or deny the blessings.

Youhave to remember that these awful men, were also brothers, sons, nephews, grandchildren, uncles… the sealing done in the temple binds families together, so we look at it as a family perspective more than anything.
