?IF?!?!
You are suffering from reading comprehension. I suggest a reread, and maybe you will catch this: “They were true in the time period in which they were said. They are true today”
...and besides that you managed to sidestep every question and suggestion. Now why would that be?
Could it be your Catholic friend of thin skin has you pegged. It certainly wasn’t a very kind or Christian evaluation of why no desire for contact.

You are suffering from reading comprehension. I suggest a reread, and maybe you will catch this: “They were true in the time period in which they were said. They are true today”I 'caught' what came BEFORE the words you selected...
Clearly if all the quotes in your #152 were true, would you have been likely to have understood?
It's a question, and the answer is no.
You appear to be attempting to understand yesteryear with the eyes of 2024. So again I would suggest you are looking at the Journal of Discourses when your focus should be on the Book of Mormon.
HMMMmmm.... The JoD seems to have been good enough for the Mormons of early days. Why isn't it now?
The Journal of Discourses is a 26-volume collection of public sermons by early leaders of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
The first editions of the Journal were published in England by George D. Watt, the stenographer of Brigham Young. Publication began in 1854, with the approval and endorsement of the church's First Presidency, and ended in 1886. Wikipedia
The Journal of Discourses deservedly ranks as one of the standard works of the Church, and every rightminded Saint will certainly welcome with joy every number (issue) as it comes forth.
