No more beer. Profess faith in Joseph Smith as a prophet, the Book of Mormon, and the current LDS prophet as a prophet, seer, and revelator. Are you willing to live the health code, pay a full title, keep the LDS commandments? The road to baptism into the LDS Church required satisfactory answers to the baptismal interview questions. So, Michael believed that after baptism into the LDS Church, he had arrived at salvation. After baptism, he had been declared a member of the LDS Church and commanded by a priesthood member with authority to receive the Holy Ghost. Soon he was given a calling (job) in the church. But, no, the road to eternal life was paved with an eternity of requirements and effort that he calls the “requirements treadmill.” The next hurdle was to prepare himself worthy to enter an LDS temple where he discovered many things may be sacred to the LDS but they were secret to new members before attending the temple. See our book 7 Reasons We Left Mormonism for some of the many laws and ordinances required for eternal life.
