Mormons: At what age did you learn about the planet Kolab?

Question

Why won't any Mormons explain what Kolab is? I'm sure everyone here would like to know.

There are.....but I'm bored with this already since they don't respond - just as they hoped. I'll switch to Muslims.

Answer 1

I explained Kolob in another answer, so it's not that we're avoiding it, it's just that people know you aren't going to pick an honest Mormons answer because your intent isn't to get straight answers, but to make Mormons look wacky. Again, it's just a planet, but one that Mormons believe is the closest to where God actually resides.

Answer 2

( *I'D* Like to know! I remember once a Mormon missionary really trying to convert me, but when I started asking all kinds of questions about the faith it seemed like there were so many "Oh you wouldn't be interested about that" oh you really don't want to know about that it's just lot of technical stuff" Oh that is something holy that we just don't share outside the faith" It became evident that unlike Christianity of which Jesus said "That which you here in secret declare OPENLY from the rooftops! Paul said about the Christian faith "This thing wasn't done in a corner" (Secretly) but right put in the open. I would be very interested to hear Mormons openly tell us about Kolab.

Answer 3

12-ish? Though I have to say I am an ignorant mormon, I'm not very active anymore.


***EDIT***

About what I've heard (but don't take my exact word for it, it has been a while):

Kolob is supposedly another earth-like planet. I was told that Jesus has visited it, and it is not nearly as 'evil' as earth. Earth was the only planet wicked enough to sacrifice God's only begotten son.

Thats what I remember. Again don't take my exact word for it, ask some missionaries.

Also, I might have heard that Jesus lives on Kolob currently.

Answer 4

No. he will have his very own spouse interior the subsequent existence in the event that they the two stay worth. he won't get 30 virgins, nor does it state in our doctrine that he would receive a planet. in spite of the reality that there have been evaluations stated on that. It makes me ask your self in case you have been asking rather ignorant or rude questions and he's bored with attempting to describe to you so he's being sarcastic.

Answer 5

Kolob is mentioned in 'the Book of Abraham' (Pearl of Great Price) which Joseph Smith translated from Reformed Egyptian. It is the planet we all come from (before we were sent here) where God the Father and His Wife (or Wives?) create us as spiritual beings by reproducing and having spiritual children, which 'entabernacle' pre-existing intelligences.

So I presume the answer is, when they first read or heard about the Book of Abraham. Mormons, you HAVE heard about the Book of Abraham, and Reformed Egyptian, and the papyrus fragments transl by JS which are in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NY?

Answer 6

as i say, they can only quote, so u must ask a text book question like, "why is kolab important" - so they can look it up.
most mormons don't know about it, unless they asked or heard it from someone.

Answer 7

Never.

It's Kolob.

I was a member of the Church in the 1980's, but that's not the reason I left.

Answer 8

Answer 9

Answer 10

Err... no we wouldn't, you stand alone on that one!
