Background
Ethnicity:
Native-American on my Mother's side, Father's side Finnish and German, not sure where Irish comes from.
I was born October 11, 1983 and scarcely was I born than our family moved to Flint, Michigan, where I grew up. In 2005 I moved to Oak Grove MO, where I was baptized and confirmed at the age of 22 and from 2007-2009 worked at Wal-Mart. In 2009 I moved to Michigan and stayed there for about 5-7 years, returning to Oak grove MO in 2015 responding to the call of God to gather to His Zion. Now working in the food service industry.
My best days are ahead of me and I have very bright hopes for the future.
Education
Flint Schools, then Carman Ainsworth Schools until I graduated in 2002.
Career
At Walmart my main job was to collect carts from the parking lot, and once in a while I would be a temporary door greeter. I had other minor jobs both indoors and outdoors, such as sweeping the sidewalk and collecting trash and hangars from the registers.
Religion
I am in complete agreement with the following:
Articles of Faith and Doctrine:
1 We believe in God, the Eternal Father, and in His Son, Jesus Christ, and in the Holy Ghost.
2 We believe that men will be punished for their own sins, and not for Adam’s transgression.
3 We believe that through the Atonement of Christ, all mankind may be saved, by obedience to the laws and ordinances of the Gospel.
4 We believe that the first principles and ordinances of the Gospel are: first, Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ; second, Repentance; third, Baptism by immersion for the remission of sins; fourth, Laying on of hands for the gift of the Holy Ghost.
5 We believe that a man must be called of God, by prophecy, and by the laying on of hands by those who are in authority, to preach the Gospel and administer in the ordinances thereof.
6 We believe in the same organization that existed in the Primitive Church, namely, apostles, prophets, pastors, teachers, evangelists, and so forth.
7 We believe in the gift of tongues, prophecy, revelation, visions, healing, interpretation of tongues, and so forth.
8 We believe the Bible to be the word of God as far as it is translated correctly; we also believe the Book of Mormon to be the word of God.
9 We believe all that God has revealed, all that He does now reveal, and we believe that He will yet reveal many great and important things pertaining to the Kingdom of God.
10 We believe in the literal gathering of Israel and in the restoration of the Ten Tribes; that Zion (the New Jerusalem) will be built upon the American continent; that Christ will reign personally upon the earth; and, that the earth will be renewed and receive its paradisiacal glory.
11 We claim the privilege of worshiping Almighty God according to the dictates of our own conscience, and allow all men the same privilege, let them worship how, where, or what they may.
12 We believe in being subject to kings, presidents, rulers, and magistrates, in obeying, honoring, and sustaining the law.
13 We believe in being honest, true, chaste, benevolent, virtuous, and in doing good to all men; indeed, we may say that we follow the admonition of Paul—We believe all things, we hope all things, we have endured many things, and hope to be able to endure all things. If there is anything virtuous, lovely, or of good report or praiseworthy, we seek after these things.
Joseph Smith.
Note on article 2: I believe that we inherited Adam's corruption, but not his sin. The whole earth is cursed because of Adam's fall, not just humanity.
Politics
Freedom of conscience, liberty, freedom of religion, social conservatism, agree with Joseph Sobran in his book, Single Issues.
a Levinite (i.e. listener of the Mark Levin Show). Do not consider myself a Republican.
Views
