Will Each Mormon Create Their Own World Where They Will Be Worship?

Question

Mormon leader Orson Pratt clearly stated, "Thus each God forms a world for the accommodation of his own sons and daughters who are sent forth in their times and seasons and generations to be born into the same. The inhabitants of each world are required to reverence, adore, and worship their own personal father who dwell in the heavens who dwells in Heaven which they formerly inhabited." (Orson Pratt, The Seer, p. 37)

Imagine a Mormon creating a world of their own where their constituents can really worship and adore them. What a blatant lie from the Mormon officials.

Answer 1

Sorry any book written by any G.A. General Authority is the authors responsiblity and does not make Mormon Doctrine.
Mormon Doctrine is found in our Standard Works revealed to the prophet from God and Sustained by the General Assembly at a General Conference. Orson Pratt's view is his own view and doesn't make Mormon Doctrine.

Answer 2

Why did God our Heavenly Father create a world of His own, where His constituents can worship and adore Him?

IF IF we are able some day in the future to create our own world, and have our own "children" to populate it, it will NOT be because we want to be worshipped. We will be in a perfected, exalted state, without any influence of Satan. We will be doing this for purely altruistic reasons.

edit, about "The Seer"

>The Seer was a newspaper published by Elder Orson Pratt while serving a mission for the Church. In the paper, Elder Pratt gave his viewpoints on a number of gospel principles. When the Church discovered what Elder Pratt had written, he was censured and the writings were officially and publicly condemned for containing false doctrine. In a Proclamation of the First Presidency and Twelve, dated October 21, 1865, the Church said:

The Seer "contain[s] doctrines which we cannot sanction, and which we have felt impressed to disown, so that the Saints who now live, and who may live hereafter, may not be misled by our silence, or be left to misinterpret it. Where these objectionable works, or parts of works, are bound in volumes, or otherwise, they should be cut out and destroyed; with proper care this can be done without much, if any, injury to the volumes.

It ought to have been known, years ago, by every person in the Church—for ample teachings have been given on the point—that no member of the Church has the right to publish any doctrines, as the doctrines of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, without first submitting them for examination and approval to the First Presidency and the Twelve. There is but one man upon the earth, at one time, who holds the keys to receive commandments and revelations for the Church, and who has the authority to write doctrines by way of commandment unto the Church. And any man who so far forgets the order instituted by the Lord as to write and publish what may be termed new doctrines, without consulting with the First Presidency of the Church respecting them, places himself in a false position, and exposes himself to the power of darkness by violating his Priesthood.

While upon this subject, we wish to warn all the Elders of the Church, and to have it clearly understood by the members, that, in the future, whoever publishes any new doctrines without first taking this course, will be liable to lose his Priesthood."

The Mormon revelatory process has two steps. According to Doctrine and Covenants 9:8, if one wants to get a message from God, she needs to first study the question out in her mind, and second ask got if her tentative decision or conclusion is right. This revelatory process is the same for any member of the Church, from a Sunday-school teacher to a prophet.

In the early years of the Church, when its theological foundations were still being laid, much speculative doctrine was being “studied out” in Mormon circles. Subsequent revelation from God has shown that some of that early speculation was not theologically correct.

A similar process took place in the early post-apostolic Christian church. In the centuries following the death of the apostles, there was much theological debate regarding the nature of God and what constituted Christian doctrine. Ultimately, groups of men came together and established “creeds” to resolve these conflicting doctrinal questions. The path of Mormon Christianity has been somewhat different; doctrinal speculations were confirmed true or false via revelation from God, not by groups of mortal theologians.

Anti-Mormons are quick to data-mine historical texts to find any scrap of a quote that makes Mormons look bad; they ignore the many quotes that sound "reasonable" and instead seek the rare, speculative, "questionable" quotes. This same technique can be used to slander any organization, religious or otherwise, regardless of its actual truth value.

Regarding your specific question, Mormons, like many other Christian denominations (specifically the Orthodox and Eastern Catholic branches of Christianity), do believe in "theosis," the idea that man can progress to become more like God. This concept was also had among the earliest Christians. I don’t think most Mormons would claim to understand the details of “theosis” to the extent that you present them in your question.

On an unrelated note, your question violates the Yahoo! Answers Community Guidelines. Specifically, it contains a belligerent insult and is a “troll” question (“A ‘troll’ is someone who intentionally and persistently posts inflammatory messages about sensitive topics to bait users into responding or provoke a confrontation.”)

Answer 4

I'm glad to see that you are so intelligent as to answer your own question. And other books that are not LDS doctrine that you feel like misquoting? You seem to be so set in what you perceive to be true that it does not matter what anyone else has to say. That type of thinking isn't gonna get you very far in life. Maybe one day you will see that.

Answer 5

The women won't be able to (They will be able to serve their husband over His land though! Golly-Jeeze!!) and only the best (= tithe paying, kid-churning, double mission going) men will Lord over a new world.

If true, this pretty much ensures that there is no world for atheists and other "sinners" to live in peace

Answer 6

Uh... is there actually a question?

You just attacked/insulted the religion!
You ask a question, answer it yourself and then call them liers! I'm a Catholic who has some definate problems with the Mormon religious views and I still think that was a low move.

Answer 7

Imagine people who don't know about Mormonism getting the right sources and don't interpreting things the way they want.

Answer 8

Didn't God create a world where he wishes for people to worship Him?

Answer 9

It sounds alot like the challenge the Devil made in Eden..."You can be like God"

Answer 10

HAHAHAHAHA
