Book of Mormon vs Bible
Pity that we discuss the differences in the various books..
It is a well known fact that the Leader has followers. The disciples followed Christ and became known as christians. The gave thier lives for thier faith. By commiting themselves to death for thier faith in thier saviour, they made an eternal stand. The basis of this knowledge in the phisycal is the written word. Today known as the Bible.
The authenticity of this collection of books has been proven beyond any possible doubt...Worlwide !!!!. The Period of existance is also unchalangable proof of the truth of this written word. The followers today are still called christians. they still teach the same truths that was taught by Jesus Christ.
This makes it the Bible

Re: Book of Mormon vs Bible
The book of Mormon does not share the same authenticity. The book of Mormon is one man's thaughts and perceptions of what man vs God is. It is also, unfortunately one persons believe that man is God in the making, to be God of his / her own world one day. It sound like a cheap way to have worldomination to me...

Re: Book of Mormon vs Bible
No I dont mean divinity. I mean historical authenticity. We can Tackle the divinity concept after we have agreed that this book is the truth.
The remnants of the mines of king Soloman were found near Eilat (Hebrew: ) is Israel's southernmost city, a busy port as well as a popular tourist destination, located at the northern tip of the Red Sea, on the Gulf of Eilat. Home to 55,000 people, the city is part of the Southern Negev Desert, at the southern end of the Arava. The city is adjacent to the Egyptian village of Taba, to the south, and the Jordanian port city of Aqaba, to the east.
The remnants of Pharoes Army that followed the Isrealites on thier Tour De France throught the Sinai desert, were found in the red sea..
Confirmation of the actual Exodus route has come from divers finding coral-encrusted bones and chariot remains in the Gulf of Aqaba . ONE of the most dramatic records of Divine intervention in history is the account of the Hebrews' exodus from Egypt
The subsequent drowning of the entire Egyptian army in the Red Sea was not an insignificant event, and confirmation of this event is compelling evidence that the Biblical narrative is truly authentic. Over the years, many divers have searched the Gulf of ! Suez in vain for artifacts to verify the Biblical account. But carefully following the Biblical and historical records of the Exodus brings you to Nuweiba, a large beach in the Gulf of Aqaba, as Ron Wyatt discovered in 1978.
Repeated dives in depths ranging from 60 to 200 feet deep (18m to 60m), over a stretch of almost 2.5 km, has shown that the chariot parts are scattered across the sea bed. Artifacts found include wheels, chariot bodies, as well as human and horse bones. Divers have located on the Saudi coastline opposite Nuweiba as well.
Since 1987, Ron Wyatt found three four-spoke gilded chariot wheels. Coral does not grow on gold, hence the shape has remained very distinct, although the wood inside the gold veneer has disintegrated making them too fragile to move.
You asked for one, I gave you two..

Re: Book of Mormon vs Bible

Sorry, cant agree with you. The modern Bible only became known as the Bible after the Texus Receptus was transelated into The Kings language. (King James) Before that it was known as the Bishops Bible (Vulgate) that only the Priests of the Catholic church were allowed to read, and prior to that, it was known as the law and the Apostolic letters.
The issue is, that This Book is the only book that encompasses the Christian Faith.

Re: Ron Wyatt again
You are right by saying that authenticity needs to be proofed in order to prove. You are also right by saying this is a new trhread, however I refer you back to me original argument and then you wil see how we ended up here. The notion is to deliberate in order to disprove or aprove, or is it to learn and teach?? Point in standing is, If I believe the K'oran is the Gospel, then surely Mormon's books don't settle the argument. But in this case, we need to establish then the authenticity of Joseph Smith, considdering that he virtually rewrote the bible in his own version. Based on that version we have this discussion...

Re: Book of Mormon vs Bible
If you considder reality to be fiction, then so be it. God, (I AM), YHWH is spirit. Therefore Spirit is Reality. Because He Is, He was and He will be, Therefore the eternaty of mankind in flesh is but 80 years, the eternity of mankind, made by The Spirit, in the spirit is therefore..Forever. (was and is and will be).
Like i said, we need to establish the authenticity first, then we can discuss these issues. Even under a new topic if you like.
