(Grig posted)As I hope you are observing, anti-Mormons are founded in defending several doctrines that didn’t exist among the apostles and early Christians. To do this they sneer and smear evidence from the early Christian leaders and the Bible that they can’t address on a factual basis.
Where have I ‘sneered or smeared evidence’? In each case I have attempted to post as much direct evidence as possible, so that people might see for themselves and judge what is truth.
How is it that when I talk of a priesthood of all believers after Christ, you bring up evidence from the periods before Christ (see your post 622 where you speak of Nachon)? Either this demonstrates gross misunderstanding on your part, or a deliberate disregard for truth. Now you speak of others ‘snearing and smearing’, when in fact you do the same through this last post.
For shame Grig.
If I have misappropriated evidence of any kind, please let me know and you will have my immediate apology.
“Where have I ‘sneered or smeared evidence’?”
I wasn’t referring to you, you’ve been great and I really appreciate that.
“How is it that when I talk of a priesthood of all believers after Christ, you bring up evidence from the periods before Christ (see your post 622 where you speak of Nachon)? Either this demonstrates gross misunderstanding on your part, or a deliberate disregard for truth.”
I cited Nachon as part of making the point that there was no priesthood of believers in the OT. Do you believe there was a priesthood of believers in the OT? If not, we agree on that point. If you do, why was the believer Nachon struck dead for doing what only a Levite priest was allowed to do?
