Tosca, we've been over this before. It doesn't look like there is anything I can say that is going to alter your opinions. Not once that I can think of have you taken back any accusations and admitted my response resolved an issue. It is typical when debating someone that cannot go beyond their biases. If I was telling people what say Baptists believe and was throwing out stuff full of errors, which I would never do anyway, if someone showed where I was mistaken I would apologize and admit it. I am pro LDS but I am an honest debater. So Tosca, believe what you want.
I am an honest debater, too. I cut to the chase and given you straight questions - which you avoid answering.
If you can't tell when Brigham Young was speaking as a prophet as he makes his discourse and sermon before the people - then how is he a prophet? It's not like as if he's simply making little mistakes - he's practically saying blasphemous things that are quite contradictory to the Scriptures, for crying out loud!
What biblical God-appointed prophet was there that is indeed - in his everyday life as a human - who'd declare beliefs about God that's contradictory to what God had been saying all along? Paul never believed in Jesus Christ until that fateful day that He'd revealed Himself to Paul - the result was the amazing transformation in Paul.
Any God-appointed prophets will logically be transformed to be
consistent with God!
After all, they're chosen to speak for God. How can you have a credible prophet who'll be speaking one thing and then declaring things that are contrary with God's? That sows confusion.
Anything that sows confusions about God CANNOT BE FROM GOD!
The things you'd do for the Baptist - as your example - does not necessarily mean that what you'd show them is right, either. If someone shows me where she thinks I'm wrong in my belief (yet, I know I'm right), of course I wouldn't admit that I'm wrong. Instead I'd try to prove that she is wrong in her assumption and that I'm right with mine.
LDS is getting a lot of challenge from Christians because from a Christian's standpoint - based on the Scriptures and basic Christian doctrine - LDS, even though they use the name of Jesus Christ in their title - Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints - is not a Christian religion.
How can it be when it actually teaches beliefs that are contrary to what Jesus had taught?
The challenges from posters do not come from bias. What you see are Christians trying to defend the Christian doctrine from being sullied, and trying to prevent the confusions that mislead others.
