Truly it is an accursed book based on what god has said: "do no add to this book."
This passage in Revelation is refering specifically to the book of Revalation. We have proved it
mutliple times over. why do you still repeat this over and over?
Even if it was refering to the whole Bible the Book of Mormon is not adding to the Bible. It is it's
own book. That would mean that it is not subject to the statement in Revelation.
Problem is that you and all Mormons were brought up in a cave
Actually I was brought up in a couple houses in Idaho. I have gone camping in caves though.
with seeing nothing but shadows on the wall, and we christians were freed from the cave of
darkness by Christ and brought out into the light of life, and we can see through your J. Smiths
ploy to subjugate a congregation to himself.
You have yet to prove this.
As it is written in the gospel of the one true God, "any gospel that we have not preached to
you let it be accursed." Aren't you a bit concerned at seeking for the truth.
Yes I am which is why I am LDS. It is Christ's gospel. That makes it the same one.
Your problem is that you use the book of Mormon to validate the bible, and that is a no
no.
I don't I use the Book of Mormon to validate my interpretation of the Bible. Not to validate the
Bible itself. Besides where does it say that using the Book of Mormon to validate the Bible is a no
no?
It is the bible and the bible only that contains the truth.
Where does it say this?
Not any other book on earth contains truth as the truth of the bible.
1 Thes 5:21
21 Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.
Prove it.
I'll admit, Smith really made a lot of use copying information from the bible and
intergrating it into his fable.
21 Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.
Prove it.
If I was born in a cave, I would believe in it too.
Why would you have had to live in a cave? I believe in it and I have never lived in a cave.
Your conclusion based on this scripture has been proven wrong. Find something else.
You have 24 months and 13 days before the rapture. if you have not repented and given
yourself over to god and beg for His mercy, you will be left behind.
I actually don't believe in the rapture. I don't think anybody will be flying up in the sky.
There are none so blind as they that will not see
Sure.
P.S. I might add, that my telling you that I know the date of the rapture, and the date of
the end of the world, seems just as impossible to believe for you as is your Book of Mormon does for
me.
That would be an illogical conclusion since you don't know how impossible you knowing the date of
the rapture is. You would have to know that in order to make a proper comparison.
Well, I guess I cannot. BUt I do say that if anyone can believe that story that J. Smith
wrote, must also have been brought up in acave somewhere else on earth, just not the same cave. Cave
dwellers will flock together, like birds of a feather.
Cave dwellers flock together? I've never heard this. Could you provide some archeological evidence.
Problem is, You are into the story and have accepted it, and i dare say that you would, even
if you could, say anything to go against it.
Why? If I thought it was wrong I would not be part of it. Why would I want to join with something
that is not true? I don't get power, or money, or anything like that from it. The only thing I get
is closeness to the Saviour, Jesus Christ.
I am on the outside of it, and I can look into and see the flaws, for me it is quite obvious
that it is not of God Himself.
And we are on the outside of your beliefs so we could say the same about you. It isn't that
convicing of an argument.
I have no fear of being ostracized from the pack or have any fear of the elders, I fear only
God.
Same with me.
Luke 14:26
26 If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren,
and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.
I guess it is easier to spot things from a first and fresh point of view without having the
fear of being intimidated.
True.
For you sake, I do hope God HAS INFILLED YOU WITH HIS HOLY SPIRIT AND YOU
DO GO TO HEAVEN.
I believe so.
The word believe is synonymous with faith.
Eh. It's similar.
Main thing is to be concerned with the fact of your own salvation, and do not worry about the rest of the world until you know where you stand with God. Lord tells us often to be sure of our self and how do we know we are saved, well we have to search the bible for the answers. And believe it, it is not by speaking in tongues. I could look up some answers, but the best I heard so far is to cry out to God for mercy and plead with him to be sure that he has chosen you. You can never even tell if the guy in the pew next to you is a tare or not. God has described ppl as Gold, silver, and precious stones, then the tares are hay, wood, and stubble.
Yep. You can't save anyone. So we should each be concerned with our own standing with God.
You really have to commune with the Lord, and the church cannot save you, it is God who draws us.
True the Church cannot save anyone. However, it iso nly through the Church that the proper ordinances can be administered.
No baptisim in water or the paying of tithes, or the sinners prayer, just the grace of god.
True in a way. No matter what we do we cannot be saved. Only through Christ can we be saved. However Christ will only save us if we show our dedication to Him. And that is done by obeying his commandments and follwoing his example like being baptized, paying tithes, etc.
What is the sinners prayer?
:troll:
This thread outlived its usefulness LONG ago.
But it's so much fun.
). I have many Catholic friends. When I was just about 12 years old, my one Catholic friend and I used to sit and talk about our religious beliefs a lot.
