LDS:Did you know that Elvis took missionary instructions?
.
Book of Mormon — possibly Elvis Presley’s personal copy, reputed to have been in his room when he died — is indeed in the archives of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
The Book of Mormon was given to the LDS Church by members of the Osmond family, who received it from a woman named Cricket Butler, Butler, a friend of Elvis, gave the Book of Mormon to him in the months preceding his death. The book was subsequently returned to Butler by Elvis’ father, Vernon, two days after Elvis’ death.”She sat in on the missionary discussions at Graceland and knows the date Elvis was to be baptized, which never came to pass due to Elvis’ death,” So does that mean that Elvis is on the fast track to celestial glory?.
(Deseret News Oct 6,2006)
Yes…but it doesn’t mean as much as some would like it to. Elvis studied with many different religions towards the end of his life. Was he close to converting to ours? We can’t really know that. All we have is one individual’s claims that he had a baptismal date, but in all honesty, how reliable is that?
Elvis was meeting with the missionaries at some point. He had a copy of the BOM. That’s all we know for sure. Was he ready to accept the gospel? I hope so, but whether he was or wasn’t, we do the work for him here and hope that he accepts the gospel when he’s taught in the next life. It’s the same for Elvis as it is for everyone else. They get a final chance. All people do…and isn’t it wonderful to know that?
In any case, though, there is no fast track to celestial glory. There never has been, because while God never wanted the way back to Him to be impossibly difficult, there still aren’t any cheats or short cuts. If Elvis accepts the gospel in the spirit world, he, like everyone else, will have to learn the basics. He’ll have to go through the repentance process and come to know his Savior. It will be the same for him as it is for all of us, regardless of when we find the gospel.

Do you realize that Nancy Pelosi is on 2 heartbeats away from the USA presidency?
And it may be closer than that. It seems that a Federal judge has set a trial date for him to prove he has the credentials for being an United States president.

I was not happy with the answer that the yahoo team picked, so I am posting it again. Nancy Pelosi is only 2 heartbeats away from the presidency. Read you constitution. As far as the court case goes, another judge has been bought out, silenced and we don’t know by who or why.
I read your links and remember the link that the answer was linked to. It seems that the trial was on go and the judge was determined to make it happen. Then suddenly everything changes and there was no reason for a trial. There was no more proof brought forth. To all of you that keep saying it is nonsense; let me ask you this question, why has Obama spent millions of dollars fighting it in court. All Obama had to do was show the authentic birth certificate, but he does not have one and therefore must conjure up lies and deceit like he does in everything else.
Obama is a puppet for one world government. He speaks lies and doesn’t care about the USA. His roots are deep in muslim and his agenda is to spend USA into collapse.
