I agree that they want to get Mormons away from Mormonism. But I dont see them present an alternative. They may quote scripture to “prove” that Mormonism is false, but they dont post much about where to go. How can you tell they are for Christianity if they dont talk about why you should be a Christian?

What you probably aren’t seeing is that the same people have been going head-to-head for a long time. For instance Paragon Defender (pardon me PD for using you for an example)

We “anti’s” have been preaching the gospel to him/her for a very long time. We compare the teachings of Mormonism with the Word of God, aka the Holy Bible. It blows it out of the water but PD is determined to stay in Mormonism.

PD and the other determined Mormons have been told a million tmes that all they have to do is pick up a bible and walk into the nearest bible-alone-teaching church or to their nearest born-again friend or relative. Most Baptist churches are a good bet. Calvary chapels, non-denominational Christian churches, any church with the word “bible” in its name. I worship at an assembly of God church right now but didn’t even know that was its affiliation for months. Doesn’t really matter. They teach right out of the bible.

IF that’s too much of a step, just read the gospel of John. Then try Romans. It’s all there to those who will see by the power of the Holy Spirit.

But the reason that most of us anti’s are not “pushing” a denomination or a particular church is because we know that where your butt is planted on Sunday won’t get you in good with God. Who you give your tithe to or even if you choose or don’t choose to tithe won’t buy you points. There is nothing we can do or not do, eat or not eat, wear or not wear, that will have the slightest eternal consequence in and of itself.

Doesn’t matter if you say certain prayers, raise your hands high in song, kneel, bow, volunteer at the homeless shelter, whatever! Those things will not buy you one minute in heaven if you are not saved. And no church can save you.
