My Apology to Mormon Readers

Noahides and Jews adhere to Torah and the writings of the prophets. Noahides do not have to keep the 613 commandments. Those apply to Jews only.

We do not go by the KJV or the NIV or any other Christian version. We go by the Hebrew Scriptures that come from Jewish sources. The Jewish Publication Society is one example.

Aren’t Christians pissed that the Mormons have changed the Gospels? Now you know how the Jews (and even the Noahides) feel.

[Sherman Logan]

Ahh, the old No True Scotsman meme.

<>Pretty much everywhere in the Hebrew Scriptures.

You've made a specific charge; and supplied a vague answer.

[Elsie]

Aren’t Christians pissed that the Mormons have changed the Gospels? Now you know how the Jews (and even the Noahides) feel.

We Christians can produce evidence showing what we are claiming about Mormonism.

I am waiting for SPECIFIC changes that you are alluding to.

[ejonesie22]

Well I guess you aren’t Mormon and you seem to have a idea that Gods ways are limited so. Well I don’t know what that means really..

[Elsie]

It seems so SIMPLE - until you read what they are:

---

The seven laws listed by the Tosefta and the Talmud are:^[6]

1. The prohibition of Idolatry.
2. The prohibition of Murder.
3. The prohibition of Theft.
4. The prohibition of Sexual immorality.
5. The prohibition of Blasphemy.
6. The prohibition of eating flesh taken from an animal while it is still alive.
7. The requirement of maintaining courts to provide legal recourse.

---

#7 seems especially vague and potentially micro controlling.

[ejonesie22]

Ouch...

[Elsie]

Nope...

Surely you know the difference between a TRUE Sherman Logan and a person who uses Sherman Logan as a screen name...

[ejonesie22]

Actually I know of few if any Jews who feel that way.

[Sherman Logan]

No Christian has ever committed a crime or said an unkind word about someone, since anybody who would do such a thing is not really a Christian.

Same can be, and has been, said about Muslims and other groups.

It should be pointed out that Smith said “some” Christians. So unless you wish to argue that “no” Christians fill the bill, he is right.

Which of course you can do by claiming that anyone who does something of which you disapprove is not “really” a Christian.

[metmom]

Not a meme. The truth.

Talk is cheap. Many call themselves Christian.

If they’re not living it, their claims are certainly suspect.

[metmom]

Same goes for Mormons.

[Sherman Logan]

You bet.

[POWERSBOOTHEFAN]

Deuteronomy and Isaiah make it very clear. But it wouldn't matter if I posted the verses because Christians have twisted them around and misquoted the Tanach.

[POWERSBOOTHEFAN]

G-d is the ONLY savior.

[POWERSBOOTHEFAN]

I don’t see the difficulty.

[POWERSBOOTHEFAN]

G-d’s ways are not limited. This means no human can be G-d in any way,shape or form.

This includes Jesus,who was allegedly born to a virgin. G-d cannot be born. He can’t die either.

To say that a human was fully man and fully G-d is limiting G-d. He has no human form especially since humans are limited. We are born and we die.

[POWERSBOOTHEFAN]

Jesus did speak in secret through parables. He did not want everyone to know what he was talking about. He didn’t want everyone to know he was ‘the Christ’.

[Elsie]

It should be pointed out that Smith said “some” Christians.

SOME Sherman Logans do NOT post factual data on FR.

[Elsie]

But it wouldn't matter if I posted the verses because Christians have twisted them around and misquoted the Tanach.

Then it is your DUTY to post the TRUTH and the TWISTING; wouldn't you say?
