Nicmarlo, you have again refused to understand what I said. I said - and re-clarified - that salvation requires acceptance of the Gospel of Jesus Christ (the fullness thereof), and that this Gospel was taught by Joseph Smith. It is an incidental truth that results to say that Smith must be accepted as a prophet in order to receive salvation.
If you accept the fullness of the Gospel, acceptance of Smith is a natural consequence.
Do try to keep up.
The Gospel is Christ’s Gospel, not Joseph Smith’s, nor Moses, nor Abraham’s, not Paul’s.
It is about Christ. I believe that Paul was an Apostle of Christ, chosen and blinded by an angel.
But even if I didn’t believe these things, my salvation does NOT come from whether or not I believe anything about Paul, Moses, or Abraham, but that I believe in Christ, and have accepted Him as my Savior.
My salvation comes from belief in no one and nothing else.
If you accept the fullness of the Gospel, acceptance of Smith is a natural consequence.Why? Especially since the Holy Writ specifically warns us against additions such as thos penned by Smith?
