I did not say Joseph Smith

Then just to WHICH 'prophet' were you refering?

“Despite being born nearly 100 years before the restoration of the gospel...”

that's about as far as I got. Are the BYUers that behind the times? Haven't they heard of David Barton's research on George Washington?

As to “restoring” anything to the “foundation that is already laid” or “adding” anything from any so called “Angel” to the sealed Scriptures is forbidden by the Bible... in fact, it commands a curse. There is a very good reason Jesus warns us against “false prophets” adding anything to the living Gospel as the Book of Mormon does.

The New Covenant is a contract between God and His people. You cannot add anything to this contract without changing it. This is why it is an accursed thing to try to do.

Just what exactly was it about the Bible that was so “bad” that it needed to be “restored” with “new revelation” from Mormons operating under the Old testament “Office of the Prophet”? An office that died at Pentecost?

And while we are at it, how come the Book of Mormon doesn't have any demarcation or distinction between the Old and New Covenants?

There is a reason that the the Temple Curtain was rent when Jesus died on the Cross.

These Mormons... always thinking they are “Christians”.
