4 Places the Book of Mormon Actually CONTRADICTS the Bible

Scripture
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RBqc9oC4of8&ab_channel=andrewsluder Here are four places where the Book of Mormon flat-out contradicts the Bible. I'm not talking about some kind of theological disagreement where we're talking about the Trinity or the deity of Jesus or salvation or any of that. No, I'm talking about four places where the Book of Mormon flat-out contradicts the Bible on a historical and factual level. There are four books in Mormonism. There's the Bible (the King James Version), the Book of Mormon, Doctrine and Covenants and Pearl of Great Price. They use all four of these authorities plus the residing President or the prophet. Joseph Smith, when he found this book, he translated it into English from reformed Egyptian. What he said in the introduction here of the Book of Mormon is: the Book…

What do Mormons believe about Jesus?

Jesus
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VpeOVk6vg3U&ab_channel=FortheGospel Help us understand what Mormons believe about Jesus Christ? Jesus in Mormonism is actually a spirit child of God, meaning that Jesus was not eternal and Jesus was not eternally with the father but he was actually created by God in a pre-earth life. Mormons believe that God produced many spirit children of whom Jesus was the first, Lucifer or Satan was the second and then subsequently all of us were birthed as spirit children by God. Therefore we actually are also brothers of Jesus. Jesus does not have equality with God. Jesus is not God. They consider him to be the second member of the Godhead and that he is the son of God but he is not eternal, he does not have equality with God and he…

Finding Our Way Out of the Mormon Church

Testimonies
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6VCJqN0Ajak Lynn Wilder wasn't born into a Mormon family. She and her husband became latter-day saints in 1977 just weeks after Mormon missionaries knocked on their door. Lynn Wilder and her family were deeply rooted in the Mormon faith for over 30 years. She attended temple services every week and spent countless hours fulfilling religious duties. She taught her children the Mormon gospel and was even a professor at Brigham Young University. Lynn knew the church culture inside and out and to her it was like family. Then one day, her 18 year old son who had become a Christian challenged her and the family to read the New Testament and everything changed. In her book Unveiling Grace, Lynn shares how her eyes and her family’s were open to the…

Daniela – Testimony of a Former Mormon

Testimonies
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nhaAz3SeBLA My name is Daniela Rojas and I grew up in the Mormon faith. My dad held multiple positions in the church. My mom was one of the leaders for the woman and I think she was preparing a lesson and she was reading through just the Book of Mormon and the Pearl of Great Price and noticed that there were some things that just to her didn't make sense. She finally decided after two years of what she calls “research”, she said “I have something to tell you. Your father and I have decided that we just can't attend this church anymore.” I remember just being really confused and really heartbroken. I didn't want to deal with it so I when I was 18, I moved out and I…

Former BYU Professor Testimony of Finding Jesus

Testimonies
https://youtu.be/SIj-bN_rMK0 Michael got off that plane. We just couldn't imagine that he really had the spirit of the devil in him. They also told us that and insinuated that he was an anti-Christ and then asked us to bring him in front of the High Council the next morning and Mormonism, that would have meant, had he professed the biblical Jesus, he would have been excommunicated from the Mormon Church. Mike and I were thoroughly confused about what was going on and within a couple of days we put him on a plane and got him out of Utah. Our lives were completely in turmoil. We still had kids in Mormonism. Now we've got a Christian son. I don't know if God has to do it with everyone but he…

Former LDS Bishop Earl Erskine Mormon Testimony…. The Truth Revealed Part 2

Testimonies
https://youtu.be/oYcGDUreqaU It is interesting that I feel closer to Jesus and the Bible but I'm considered deceived. Maybe some of you can put these facts on a shelf and ignore them but I couldn't and gratefully my wife couldn't either. And yes, we believe we will have a glorious relationship with God after this life. I've given some very special blessings over the years but I've come to realize that they were between me, that person and God. My journey fell into three stages. First it was to defend the church with all my heart and to make sense of these discrepancies. I assume defending the church will also be your first reaction to what I'm saying. I began watching Sean in 2007. He made me angry and defensive, especially…

Former LDS Bishop Earl Erskine Mormon Testimony…. The Truth Revealed Part 1

Testimonies, Uncategorized
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g00VjgTQLuo By way of introduction, my name is Earl Erskine and I've been an active member of the church for over 60 years. I've given everything the Lord has blessed me with to build up the church. I lost my parents when I was young but with others’ great sacrifice, I served a mission in Denmark. I married Carla Godwin in the Salt Lake Temple 42 years ago and I still have a current temple recommend. I'm not sure how long that'll last after tonight. I've served in three Bishop bricks, taught gospel doctrine several times, served on a High Council, was a state missionary and served as a bishop for five years. I want to share with you my life-changing journey. Do you remember in the fall of 2005…

How I Lost My Faith While Serving as a Mormon Bishop

Testimonies
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qBtdSzZZ-2E I was reading an article about a new essay on race and the priesthood that the church had released.  And I went to the church's website, navigated my way and found the essay and read it and there's a part in there that just really hit me. In the essay, they disavowed that dark skin is a sign of divine disfavor or curse. And I agree that that is the case except I remember as a missionary sitting in my chair doing my personal study reading the book of Mormon and in second Nephi I think it's chapter five when the Nephites and the Lamanites split off into two groups and the Lord curses the Lamanites with dark skin. And it's very clear that that's what he does and…

Banned Mormon Cartoon

Mormon Beliefs
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n3BqLZ8UoZk Regardless of its Christian veneer, the basic tenets of Mormonism are in direct conflict with biblical Christianity. The following piece of animation, based directly on actual Mormon publications, highlights these major doctrinal differences. Mormonism teaches the trillions of planets scattered throughout the cosmos are ruled by countless gods who once were human like us. They say that long ago on one of these planets, to an unidentified God and one of his goddess wives, a spirit child named Elohim was conceived. This spirit child was later born to human parents who gave him a physical body. Through obedience to Mormon teaching and death and resurrection, he proved himself worthy and was elevated to godhood as his father before him. Mormons believe that Elohim is their Heavenly Father and that…

Mormon Secrets: What the Missionaries Don’t Tell

Mormon Beliefs
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-VKT4hrBTuk We are representatives of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints - Mormons. Our prophets has sent us to deliver a message given from God.  Prophets? Message? Yes. We’re here to tell you that God appeared to the Prophet Joseph Smith in 1820 and he chose Joseph to restore the truth. He did? Yes, God told that Christianity had become completely corrupt. So you guys aren't Christians then? Oh, heavens yes, we’re Christians. After all, the name of our religion is the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. But you just said Christianity was all wrong. It is. But because of Joseph Smith we know ours is the only true church on the earth.  So what’s so bad about Christianity? You see, everything you know about…
