isn't it a bit surprising that yer so called "update", new and improved, did not come from a "holy man of old" and there were no ancient texts or scrolls involved.
Martin Luther communicated with GOD via the same mechanism that ALL people can communicate with God. THROUGH PRAYER.
WHO wrote the BOOK of Mormon? Was it an JEW, the CHOSEN people of GOD. God Himself said the Jewish people of Israel are HIS WIFE.
Kinda leaves out the mormons... Sorry, but there simply are not any updates to the Holy Scriptures given thru the holy prophets of old and the Apostles. Those who walked with and were called personally by Christ..
Mormonism is an invention of a very sick person who thinks multiple women for wives is a good thing even though scripture clearly and plainly speaks otherwise.
If ya has a choice to make that affects yer eternity between book of Mormon and the OLD TESTAMENT or NEW, choose the Bible testaments because they were written and directed by God and it shows.
Those texts have been around for 2 millenia unlike the cult of mormon.
Amazing that nowhere in mormonism is Christ speaking or being quoted as HE IS in the Bible.
You are certainly free to chase after fairy tales and believe what ya want, but remember ya only get one chance to get it right before ya die..
You gonna hang your eternal life on a non-supernaturally inspired and authored words that were to be recorded or going to trust the real one from the mouth of MOSES who wrote the first five books of the Bible, under inspiration of the Holy Spirit, and the Apostles of Christ who were taught by GOD the Son and rose from the dead on the third day according to the prophecy of the scriptures long before that event?
I think I will trust the one who has power over Life and Death and eternity and knows GOD the FATHER personally..
The GREAT NEWS is YOU have a choice!
Ya can pick yer ONE who you believe will be able to give ya a new body after raising YOU from the grave and is able to give you life everlasting..
It cannot be ETERNAL life because only GOD is ETERNAL.
WHY is that?
Because MAN is an
everlasting
being. We had a beginning that GOD made us and breathed into us a part of His eternal spirit.
We have a beginning but no end..
Only GOD is Eternal. He has NO BEGINNING and NO END.
He knows the beginning and end of time and He transcends both.. He is in all places at one time..
Oh well. I could go on for hours but unless you study and by faith believe what has been written in The Word and ask GOD to give you spiritual understanding, people will not grasp a lot of meaning..
There are many things in Mormonism that are directly at odds with The Bible, GOD's Written and Preserved WORDS for MAN.. The Mormons have decided to forego this and write something else NOT inspired by HOLY MEN of old and base this cult on that premise, much of which is anti-Biblical..
You can call it a church if ya want but to many of us it simply is not as it does not put CHRIST and HIS TEACHINGS and WORDS first. They are secondary.. THAT's a problem for anyone trying to get to Heaven where CHRIST rules and Reins and he is second place on earth...
