You claim my posts regularly contradict the scriptures. Care to elaborate on which ones? You often speak very generally, please be specific.
Is the answer you refer me to above about John really what you want to hang your hat on? I really do feel you have a bright mind albeit I disagree w/ you on most issues, but surely you can do better than that as an answer.
The one thing we do have in common is that we seem to be insatiable students & have a great desire to learn. I too, match those things that I learn w/ the scriptures & find no disparities whatsoever. The Godhead for example, there are many scriptures such as John 17:22-23 that match up very well w/ my beliefs. I study, reason out in my mind, & then take it to the Lord for the final answer. It’s a formula the Lord gave & it works well for me.
BTW, out of curiousity, what church do you belong to?
reno,

Therein is where you go off the cliff friend.
You take what you know of Mormonism and go to the Bible
to try to find verses that support it. Exactly backwards...
Even Rev. Sun Myung Moon goes to the Bible with his belief
that he is the reincarnation of Christ and finds
scriptural support. He prays too, btw.
Telescopes have a correct end to view through. There is also
a correct way to approach scripture. It is the difference
between Isogesis and Exogesis.
The Godhead is not what Mormonism teaches Reno.
I’ve spoken in generalities to you Reno because of the
questions you’ve asked. I’ve waited to see what you would
do with what you were given here on these threads. So far,
it appears to me the answer is, “not a lot”.
