Re: Thank you
Agent Uranium:
Please, take this suggestion. They beleive that the book of mormon is
another testament of Jesus Christ. Since they believe this, it would
be to YOUR ADVANTAGE to read your BIBLE FIRST and ask GOD to help you
understand those Scriptures BEFORE you get involved with a supposed
"other" testament.
I can tell you this, I have read this book of mormon and I find that
lacks any historical support (outside its pages) that either the people, places or events ever occurred.

A "religion" based on family sounds nice, until you understand the
the "Family" take first place. As the Mr. Osmond (Osmond Brothers)
once said----"Family first, then the Church, and then Career."
As for the Catholic Bible vs. the Protestant Bible. You will find
that the Jews today (as well as at the time of Jesus), considered
the apocryphal books as interesting historically but not as
inspired of GOD. The Protestants are ALL of the same opinion.
Additionally, the Salvation Story is not harmed in anyway by their
exclusion. As for the other books---there is very little difference
in translations, so this whole train of attack is of no merit.

Cashfrog:
The story of Nephi is fiction. The Bible isn't. The lands
discribed and the people found there and the cities lived in
are still there for ALL to see.
SHOW ME ONE city discribed in the New World the book of mormon paints.
Show me people and places that the book speaks of. It's fiction and
it is placed as superior to the Bible. Sorry, if something supernatural was involved it was demonic...

As the Church has drifted away from the truth towards heresy, fables,
traditionism, cultism, and modernism; two things have ALWAYS been
the root cause:
1> People turn away from the Scripture and apply their own wisdom.
2> People turn to other people to lead them.
However, GOD ALWAYS establishes a remnant who HOLD to the TRUTH...

Mormons also believe that God (the Father) was once a man and
has a wife called Wisdom and together they pump out spirit babies
who prove themselves worthy by coming to earth as humans. They
also believe Jesus and Satan (Good vs. Bad) are brothers.
Their belief is ALL about works and becoming gods and reassuming
the earthly family unit once one gets to heaven (with men being
the father gods).
The ritualism that they practice in their "temples" is based on
Masonic rituals. Their "temples" are only open to mormons in
"good standing". They are a C U L T... They need Jesus Christ
the SAVIOR and not an example of living correctly. They are
not Christian.
