I thought I answered this? When we use the BoM, our detractors reject it. So what sense does it make to speak much about the Savior’s visit to the American continent?

I answered your questions. Going into attack mode, PYW, isn’t very helpful to your case.

“For behold, the Spirit of Christ is given to every man, that he may know good from evil; wherefore, I show unto you the way to judge; for every thing which inviteth to do good, and to persuade to believe in Christ, is sent forth by the power and gift of Christ; wherefore ye may know with a perfect knowledge it is of God.”

Moroni 7:16

It doesn’t make any sense since it never happened.

And yet, you NEVER talk much about Jesus, about his sacrifice, about his saving grace, about his divinity, about his very PURPOSE.

And more puzzling, you and other Mormons never talk about Jesus’ miraculous revelations that occurred on Western soil. More and more, it is difficult to believe that you believe He actually did come here, when you offer no examples of the earth-shattering revelation that He brought to those people.


You didn’t answer the above statements, tantiboth.

Why is it you never say something like, “When Jesus came to the Americas (or whatever name your faith uses to describe America) he did XXX, he said XXX, he gave us revelation about XXX."

If you cannot talk about Jesus, and claim to be Christian, you must have difficulty understanding the very nature of Christ.

Christ wants us to spread his message around the globe. All you do is spread J. Smith’s message. And that is something Jesus did not tell his disciples to do.

I’m not using attack mode. I’m trying to understand why none of your commentary goes to the heart of the matter and explains your faith in depth.

You’ve shown me no substance, no richness in your faith.

And that is a shame.
