The following letter-form was brought about as a means of teaching my children the Word of God through the mail. And of course, quite naturally so, that’s the reason I begin these letters with "Dear Children" and end them with "Love Dad". So for the rest of you who participate in these weekly messages, please keep their original intended purpose in mind.
Dear Children,
It was on Thursday July the 10th that I read the shocking news concerning the couple that were slain, along with four of their children, in the Houston suburb of Spring, Texas. Stephen Stay (39), his wife Katie (34), and four of their children – Bryan (13), Emily (9), Rebecca (7), and Zach (4) – were shot execution style by an estranged brother-in-law, Ronald Lee Haskell (33), who came to their home posing as a FedEx delivery man. The Stays’ eldest daughter, Cassidy (15), was shot in the head but survived. Having only been grazed by the bullet, Cassidy played dead until Haskell left. She then dialed 911 and informed the police that Haskell was headed for her maternal grandparents’ home to kill more of her relatives. Police located Haskell’s car and a low-speed chase ensued, ending in a cul-de-sac. A standoff lasted more than three hours before Haskell got out of the car, sank to his knees, and surrendered.
Now that, in brief, was what I read about “the Stay family” that were reportedly a “model family” in their Spring community through their church and school involvement. However, the one thing that the news reports didn’t tell me was “which church did they attend?” And, of course, the reason for my concern was that all “religious beliefs” are not the same… and only ONE of them will “save” the believing individual from experiencing the everlasting torments of Hell!
Well, that was my concern. And much to my horror, it was the very next day that the news broke with the disheartening reality that this “model family”, that has now gone on to meet their maker, were members of The Church Of Latter Day Saints. And with that in mind, it’s now time to say what the Lord wants said in today’s sermont entitled “The Stay Family Tragedy: Mormons (LDS) Don’t Go To Heaven!”
So six (6) of the seven (7) family members of the Stay family were violently taken from the Spring community in a horrific tragedy on July 9th, 2014. Then the very next day, the sole survivor, Cassidy Stay, made the following comment from her hospital room while speaking to her grandmother, Joyce Stay, by phone: “My mom and dad are in a better place.” And it was that surprisingly simple, yet overwhelmingly untrue statement from the mouth of the seemingly innocent remaining family member that has compelled me to speak the following Truth about the “LDS lie” that’s taking so many people to Hell!
You see other than Joseph Smith, (the founder of the Mormon religion), the man who has contributed the most in making the “LDS Movement” what it is today was Brigham Young. And it was from the Mormon Tabernacle pulpit that Brigham Young made the following heretical statement some years ago:
“The Devil told the truth! We don’t fault Mother Eve for eating the forbidden fruit. That’s how we become Gods!” ~ Brigham Young
Now amazingly enough, the preceding statement by Brigham Young contains the foundational doctrine of the Mormon religion. And the following is the Scripture from which it was taken:
“Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD [YHWH] God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden? And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden: But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die. And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil. And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.” (Genesis 3:1-6 KJV)
So, the Devil (Satan) used the serpent to speak the lie that Eve and her husband Adam would “not surely die” by eating the forbidden fruit but “be as gods”. However, it was only a few verses earlier that we actually find God’s Truth concerning the consequences for committing this sin of eating from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil:
“And the LORD [YHWH] God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.” (Genesis 2:16-17 KJV)
Thou shalt surely die – Heb. moth tamuth; Literally, a death thou shalt die; or, dying thou shalt die. Thou shalt not only die spiritually, by losing the life of God, but from that moment thou shalt become mortal, and shalt continue in a dying state till thou die. This we find literally accomplished; every moment of man’s life may be considered as an act of dying, till soul and body are separated. (Adam Clarke’s Commentary On The Bible)
Now in the truest sense of the word, the instant Adam and Eve ate of the forbidden fruit they began “dying a death” that, without proper repentance and restitution, would go on for all eternity. Because the instant Adam and Eve ate of that forbidden fruit they lost their “oneness” with the “God of life eternal” and became “one” with the ”god of everlasting death and Hell”.
You see in the beginning Satan was actually called “Lucifer” (the light bearer). The Lord God Almighty created him as an angel – the anointed cherub – to lead the heavenly host of angels in the worship of their creator. However, it was right about the time Lucifer decided to be “as god” that he was stripped of his duties, got his name changed to “Satan” (adversary or enemy), and very quickly received his walking papers by getting kicked out of Heaven:
“How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.” (Isaiah 14:12-15 KJV)
So Lucifer the angel that wanted to be “as god” became Satan “the god” of Eve and her husband Adam when they chose to follow his recommendation and become “as gods” by eating of the forbidden fruit. And, of course, seeing how we now have a clear understanding of this thing about an angel wanting to be “as god”, and convincing the humans to sin against the LORD God by wanting to be “as gods”, we can now return to the subject at hand with Brigham Young and the foundational doctrine of the Mormon religion:
“The Devil told the truth! We don’t fault Mother Eve for eating the forbidden fruit. That’s how we become Gods!” ~ Brigham Young
You see it’s abundantly clear from God’s Holy Word that, whether it be angel or human, pursuing the desire to become “as god” is a sure fire way to end up in Hell. However, the way these Mormons get around this Truth from God’s Holy Word is through Joseph Smith’s indisputable “13 Articles Of Faith”… and #8 in particular:
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.
Now isn’t that a nifty move? After all, the Biblical meaning of “#13” is “depravity and rebellion”. And the Mormon’s “13 Articles Of Faith” are exactly that as they officially make Joseph Smith’s “Book Of Mormons”, (which was greatly influenced by a so-called “angel Moroni” that acted a whole lot like Satan himself), the authority in mis-translating the King James Version of God’s Holy Word. I mean, how else could they come up with their insane “Law Of Eternal Progression” and say it’s Scriptural? And just in case you didn’t know it, this is how “it” goes:
“As man is, God once was; as God is, man may become.”
You see the “Mormon Faith” takes this thing about “Adam and Eve” and Satan’s temptation to “be as gods” to a whole new level. The Mormons believe that “God” is not the “One and Only God” of the universe, but just one of the millions of gods in a polytheistic universe of which they may become a god too.
"How many Gods there are, I do not know. But there never was a time when there were not Gods and worlds..." ~ Brigham Young
"Gods exist, and we better strive to be prepared to be one with them." ~ Brigham Young
There is “One and Only One God” of the universe, and His Hebrew Name is YHWH (see “Yahweh – Three In One” for more on the “three-in-one” Name and Nature of God):
“Thus saith the LORD [YHWH] the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD [YHWH] of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God.” (Isaiah 44:6 KJV)
I am the first, and I am the last; the first cause and last end, of all things in nature, and providence, and grace; all things are of him, through him, and from him; all things were made by him in creation, and for his pleasure they are and were created; and all things are disposed of in his providence for his own glory; and he is the first in reconciliation, justification, and salvation, and all are to the glory of his grace: or this is a periphrasis of his eternity, who is from everlasting to everlasting, without beginning or end, the Alpha and Omega; the same is said of Christ, Rev_1:8, and all the other characters before mentioned agree with him:
and besides me there is no God: all others are only gods by name, not by nature, mere nominal fictitious deities, not real ones; and it is to the exclusion of these from the rank of deity, these words are said; but not to the exclusion of the Son of God, and the Holy Spirit, who, with the Father, are the one true God. (John Gill’s Exposition Of The Entire Bible)
As can be seen from the preceding chart, Mormons do NOT worship YHWH the God of Christianity. But you would never know it by reading the first article in Joseph Smith’s “13 Articles Of Faith”:
1. We believe in God, the Eternal Father, and in His Son, Jesus Christ, and in the Holy Ghost.
So even though the terminology might be the same, Mormons do NOT worship YHWH the God of Christianity… and the following Mormon teachings should make this point abundantly clear:
* God is not “One God” – a Trinity (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit) – but a polytheistic universe with millions of gods.
* God the Father is not a spirit, but a body, parts and passions.
* God the Father is an extraterrestrial that lives on the planet Kolob.
* God the Father is ruled over by a committee of gods and could be fired.
* God the Father has “spirit children” through physical intercourse (sex) with his “spirit wives”
* Jesus is the Son of God the Father, but not the Son of God Almighty.
* Jesus the Son was begotten by Father God through physical intercourse (sex) with his daughter Mary.
* Jesus is the spirit Brother of Lucifer.
* Jesus is our spirit Brother.
* Jesus’ shed Blood on the cross did not atone for all sins.
Now as bizarre as all these “Mormon beliefs” might be, there is none more bizarre than Joseph Smith’s claim that he will be sitting on the throne with God the Father and Son Jesus on “Judgment Day”, and likewise giving his “thumbs up” approval for “Mormons” only. In fact there’s a Mormon hymn that can be found in the “LDS” hymnbook that pretty much acknowledges this belief. The title of the hymn is “The Seer, The Seer. Joseph The Seer”, and it goes like this:
“He [Joseph Smith] pleads their cause in the courts above...He died, he died for those he loved...He reigns, he reigns in the realms above...Unchanged in death with a Saviour's love, he pleads their cause in the courts above...The Saints, The Saints, his only pride, For them he lived, for them he died.”
So, as the hymn lyrics point out, the Mormon people owe all honor and praise to “Joseph Smith” their “god” and “saviour”… who likewise encouraged them to become gods themselves:
“You have got to learn how to be gods yourselves...the same as all gods have done before you.” ~ Joseph Smith
And, of course, it was Brigham Young that put Joseph Smith’s mandate in the “short and simple” terms that anyone can understand:
“The Devil told the truth! We don’t fault Mother Eve for eating the forbidden fruit. That’s how we become Gods!” ~ Brigham Young
So, once again, the preceding is the foundational doctrine of the Mormon religion, but the following is what LORD (YHWH) God has to say about it:
“Woe (H1945) unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!” (Isaiah 5:20 KJV)
Woe (H1945) [hôy] - An interjection meaning ho! woe! alas! It is used in lamenting a person's death (1Ki_13:30). It is used in prophetic announcements of judgment or threats (Isa_1:4, Isa_1:24; Jer_48:1; Eze_13:18; Amo_5:18). (The Complete Word Study Dictionary)
“Woe unto them” is what the LORD (YHWH) God has to say about Joseph Smith and his “Mormon” followers who’ve taken the “lie” of Satan and called it the “truth”. Their judgment will be the everlasting fire that was prepared for the Devil and his angels:
“But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.” (Revelation 21:8 KJV)
So having said all that, it should be abundantly clear that Mormons worship the fallen angel “Lucifer” who created the “lie” that they call the “truth”. And now let’s get back to the Stay family tragedy. Because it was on Saturday July the 12th – three (3) days after the incident – that Cassidy spoke at the memorial service for her family. It was held a few blocks from her home, at the Lemm Elementary School, and this is what she said:
- Cassidy Stay, 15, Lone Survivor - (Download WMV Video) |
“I’m really thankful for all of the people that have been praying for me and keeping me and my family in their thoughts the past couple days… I really like Harry Potter! Um, in the Prisoner Of Azkaban, Dumbledore says, ‘Happiness can be found even in the darkest of times, if only one, if one only remembers to turn on the light.’ I know that my Mom, Dad, Brian, Emily, Becka, and Zack are in a much better place, and that I’ll be able to see them again one day. Thank you all for coming and showing your support for me and my family. Stay strong.”
Now it was right about this point in my research on the “Stay family tragedy” that a foreboding spirit came upon me concerning this fifteen-year old survivor by the name of Cassidy Stay. I mean it was right about the time she uttered the words “I really like Harry Potter!”, in front of a very influential audience at Lemm Elementary School and on nation-wide television as well, that the horrible reality struck home concerning the ugly spirit at work. Because when you take Cassidy’s promotional for Harry Potter and combine it with the hand sign she gave on her way to and at the memorial service, you’ve got a very clear picture of her satanic involvement:
So did Cassidy really mean to give “allegiance to Satan” with her “El Diablo” hand sign? Or was her intention really to say “I love you” to the general public like so many of the “uninformed” believe?
Well letting the truth be known, the youth are very creative at speaking a language that they don’t want their parents to understand. In fact this hand sign that Cassidy presented for the whole wide world to see was actually created by a famous deaf lady who just might have been communicating her “love for Satan” in code as well:
The "El Diablo" hand sign often is con-fused with the deaf's signing of the phrase, "I love you." While at first this appears an odd resemblance, we register an "ahh, I get it!" emotion when we discover that the person who invented, or created, the hand sign system for the deaf, Helen Keller, was herself an occultist and Theosophist. Did Keller purposely design the deaf's "I love you" sign to be such a remarkable imitation of the classic sign of Satan? Was Keller saying, basically, "I love you, Devil?" (See “http://www.texemarrs.com/122005/satans_el_diablo.htm” for more on this subject.)
And now that we’ve dealt with Satan’s hand sign, let’s move on and discuss Cassidy’s involvement with Satan’s witchcraft. I mean, after all, her promotion of J. K. Rowling’s “Harry Potter” series – an encyclopedia for kids on “how to become a witch” – has certainly gained her much power from the underworld. I think it’s even appropriate to call her the Harry Potter “poster girl” for such a job well done in such a very short time! I can only imagine the multitude of young souls that have been brought into Satan’s trap through her influential words as a role model: “I really like Harry Potter!” In fact the following chart should make my point clear:
You see the preceding chart is a very short listing of Harry Potter’s “attributes”. And as can be clearly seen, they are all very much so demonic. In fact the very first one – “God-like” – takes us back to Cassidy’s religious upbringing as a Mormon:
“You have got to learn how to be gods yourselves...the same as all gods have done before you.” ~ Joseph Smith
And with Satan’s promise to “be as gods” in mind, let us take a look at the 4th Harry Potter book – “The Goblet Of Fire”.
Now seeing how a picture is worth a thousand words, the above picture collage should pretty well tell the story of how Harry Potter became “as god”. I mean the scar in his forehead is in the shape of a “lightning bolt” for a very special reason. And the following Scriptures will reveal the intended symbolism behind it:
“And he [Jesus] said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.” (Luke 10:18 KJV)
“And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.” (Revelation 12:9 KJV)
You see, the “lightning bolt” is one and the same as the fallen angel “Lucifer” (A.K.A. Satan) who not only wanted to be “as god” but likewise propositioned Eve in the Garden Of Eden to partake of the forbidden fruit and become “as gods” too. So, as we discussed earlier, the “lightning bolt” became the god of Adam and Eve after they partook of the forbidden fruit. And, of course, this is one and the same reason that Harry Potter’s “lightning bolt” scar is dead center in the middle of his forehead.
Now without getting too bogged down in the details of it, the forbidden fruit that Adam and Eve ate opened up the “pineal gland” that’s located in the center of the brain directly behind the spot where the “lightning bolt” scar is seen on Harry Potter’s forehead. And it was through the activation of their “pineal gland”, which is also know as the “god center”, that Satan was able to become their “god” and thereby transform them “as gods”. The entire process is now called “enlightenment”, and all for a very good reason.
You see the LORD [YHWH] God designed the “man and woman” to become “enlightened” by “obeying His Word” and “walking in His Light” which is “life everlasting”:
“For thou wilt light my candle: the LORD [YHWH] my God will enlighten my darkness.” (Psalms 18:28 KJV)
However, the LORD [YHWH] God also designed the “man and woman” to become “enlightened” by “obeying Satan’s word” and “walking in Satan’s light” if they so choose, which is “death everlasting”:
“For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.” (2 Corinthians 11:13-14 KJV)
So taking this all back to our discussion on Harry Potter, the “lightning bolt” scar on his forehead symbolizes that he became “as god” – “enlightened” – through the “light of Satan”. And, of course, this is the same “light” that Cassidy Stay was encouraging her listeners to “turn on” when she made the following statement at the memorial service for her family:
“…in the Prisoner Of Azkaban, Dumbledore says, ‘Happiness can be found even in the darkest of times, if only one, if one only remembers to turn on the light.’”

The “Stay family tragedy” was steeped in witchcraft… both by the family’s involvement in Mormonism, and Cassidy’s involvement in Harry Potter. Things would have been so much different if they would have only known the “real” Jesus Christ as their Lord and Saviour:
“The thief [Satan] cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I [Jesus] am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.” (John 10:10 KJV)
In closing, we’ve listed a few links below that will help in bringing to light some of the darkness that’s been discussed in today’s sermonet:

So having said all that I’ll end it with this:
Satan holds the world in his darkness, but we have the “Light” of God’s “Truth”. Don’t be fooled by Satan’s deceptions. “Keep on keeping the faith in Jesus!!!”
Love,
