@joe__agnello@theBasedBarbie It's interesting, The Book of Mormon (2 Nephi 29) actually prophesies that people will be complaining about more of God's scripture, just as many comments the last 2 days have.
On another note, I appreciate your kind & thoughtful response above-- it's truly admired!
@TheLynx_1@theBasedBarbie Did you know The Book of Mormon prophesied that people would say that? Every time you repeat it, you're fulfilling prophecy, so thank you!
Secondly, it is tragic anyone would think God would stop giving revelation & speaking to His children. No loving father would do that.
@GuyInco15542744@MisterBimms@theBasedBarbie Not to mention the advanced Hebrew poetry, the linguistic links to Egyptian, the stylometry showing multiple word prints (dozens of separate authors), many names have Middle Eastern roots, advanced money system & government & warfare that are completely different than the US...
@RebelCatLover@theBasedBarbie You are correct that those topics are not addressed in The Book of Mormon, so thank you for pointing out something that others may be confused about!
Quick correction though- the events happen in "the Americas", so it could have been North, Central, or South (or a combination)
@MetzUAC1530@NathanShumate@justin_hart Ah yes, a cult that:
-welcomes questions & openly tells you to find out for yourself if it's true
-encourages higher secular education
-doesn't make you isolate from friends or family
-and you can leave anytime by sending a letter...
Sounds terrific!
@xontrikaiasximi@McPherson_Josh1 Fetus means "offspring" and is a normal part of human development. All stages of human life are human. Hope that helps!
@whosearprepper@ill_Scholar As you know, folk magic & the occult are twisted versions of God's truth, just like pharaoh's wise men tried to replicate the miracles performed through Moses. Satan has no original ideas, only twisting what is good.
@shamz_mcgee@EricCMeadows When one resorts to personal attacks & swearing instead of civil discourse, it just shows insecurity in their belief, that their argument lacks logic, and that they are a bully.
@LoanNinja@BurgessOwens@Ch_JesusChrist Ah yes, a cult that:
-welcomes questions & openly tells you to find out for yourself if it's true
-encourages higher secular education
-doesn't make you isolate from friends or family
-and you can leave anytime by sending a letter...
We'll keep following Christ, thanks! โ๐ฝ
@ranboy@hvworlton@Beard_oh Every time y'all talk about us, it gets onlookers interested to find out more. They go to our websites, contact our missionaries, and read the scriptures to investigate.
Thanks for the free publicity!
@CleverPawn@Beard_oh For real, it's all a net gain! People hear we have "crazy" beliefs so they actually reach out to our missionaries & read The Book of Mormon to find out more.
@vegashotflash@EricCMeadows Actually as a worldwide church we are in the middle of reading & studying the Old Testament this year & next year is The New Testament.
Hopefully you find a better hobby than harassing teenagers who are just trying to share their love of Christ, all on their own dime & time.
@IdahoAuntpete@EricCMeadows We actually believe contention is of the devil. We will preach and defend our truths but we are counseled over and over to be peacemakers. We seek common ground and sharing the gospel with everyone.
Have a great day!
@shamz_mcgee@EricCMeadows The word "trinity" isn't even in the Bible. It is never uttered by prophets or disciples. And no one in the Bible believed in the Creeds. So in your definition, Adam, Noah, Isaiah, Elijah, Abraham, Ruth, Jacob, Moses, David, Mary, John, Paul, Peter, & Jesus aren't "Christian".
@J_2the_G@ill_Scholar Ah yes, a cult that:
-welcomes questions & openly tells you to find out for yourself if it's true
-encourages higher secular education
-doesn't make you isolate from friends or family
-and you can leave anytime by sending a letter...
@whosearprepper@ill_Scholar And in the Bible there was a burning bush, a talking donkey, seas parting, a man being in a big fish & spat back out, people brought back from the dead, and one giant boat with animals & one family while the whole earth flooded.
I don't put limits on God's powers and miracles.
