why is it "the truth"? Because you believe it so?

I have seen even on this thread, Mormonism called a cult! Is that okay? The person making the statement feels that he is telling Mormons "the truth"! Is that okay? Is that an attack?

Here's the point: Is only your brand of Christianity is "the truth"? How about Catholicism? Is that not "the truth"? When a Southern Baptist told me, an Orthodox Jew that because I have not accepted Jesus, I am going to hell? Is that the truth? Or is it his VERSION of the truth?

It's true as he believes it. It is NOT true as I believe it. The point is that everyone has their version of "the truth". And when someone insults my beliefs by telling me that I am going to hell because I do not believe as he does, I see that as an insult to my religion. Because I believe that MY religion is "the truth".

The militancy of some who so stridently insult the beliefs of others to validate their own beliefs shows only their insecurity in those beliefs.

Don't tell me about "the truth". That's a cop out and only serves to excuse what should be embarassing and insulting behavior.

If you think truth is subjective, then you are a liberal who would be much happier over at DU. God's Truth is not subjective. By reading His two revelations to us, the OT and the NT, you will see this fact confirmed many times. Nor did He ever allow His Word to be corrupted, something Mormons insist on

Psalm 19

:7 The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple.

19:8 The statutes of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes.

19:9 The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring for ever: the judgments of the LORD are true and righteous altogether.

19:10 More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb .

19:11 Moreover by them is thy servant warned: and in keeping of them there is great reward

Sofaman, we are fighting this thing together.
I am appalled at the bigoted behavior on site here.
The vocal few are following false teachings, plain and simple, when they judge the faith of another.
This religious intolerance is not what America was founded on.

Read both the OT and the NT and see for yourself. You can’t smorgasbord His Word. I wouldn’t tell anyone they’re going to hell because I don’t know what God is doing in their lives. That’s between you and God, but you need to investigate for yourself what is really true.
