Before you can start to convert a Mormon to Christianity (share the good news) you have to EXTRACT them from Mormonism.

Unlike other believers, Mormons are deluded in a completely different way and it is a two part process. First get them to see Mormonism is not ‘true’, rely on facts rather than feelings, then and only then can you share the Good News of Christ with them.

I don’t know, maybe it’s just the way I was taught, & what the Bible & the Lord teach us, but there’s something about teaching w/ love, not contempt that seems right. That’s what the Mormon’s do. Maybe that’s part of why they convert so many Christians to their faith.

All I know is that your methods would COMPLETELY turn me off to what you’re preaching. There are rarely, if ever, posts by you guys that aren’t absolutely filled w/ anger. That’s all you guys portray. You never seem to portray love at all. Who would want to bring so much anger into their lives? I thank the Lord my church teaches a different way, I’m much happier that way.

Christians in my area have huge inter-faith activities that include the Mormon’s. They are an enormous help & we get along fabulously while accomplishing much in the name of the Lord even though there may be differences.

Short & long of it, if I were looking for a church, I wouldn’t be inclined to look your way. You seem far too interested in bashing other’s beliefs than teaching the benefits of what you believe. What a downer. My prayers are w/ you guys though in hopes that the Lord may soften your hearts.

When the Lord sent his apostles to preach to the heathen & even the Samaritans, those that were wayward, He sent them w/ a message & attitude of love, not billy clubs. Just something to think about.
