I like your creative interpretations, but they are in fact not correct, or at least not those of the mormon faithful. That those professors were corrupt, not the people believing in Christ. There certainly have been many corrupt church leaders through history. Just because religions are wrong because they do not have all truths that were lost during the last 2000 years or so, does not mean that those belonging to that church will not be saved by christ or that they will be damned to some sort of hell. How did you come to this conclusion?
Sorry; but you ain't gonna GET 'believers' if the Professors are bad!
...because they do not have all truths that were lost during the last 2000 years or so...
WAIT a gol darned MINUTE here!
You won't accept any thing that's agin' Mormonism without 'proof', so just WHERE is your PROOF that this statement you've just made is TRUE?
I guess you failed to read your Scripture...
1 Nephi 14:9-10.
And it came to pass that he said unto me: Look, and behold that great and abominable church, which is the mother of abominations, whose founder is the devil. And he said unto me: Behold there are save two churches only; the one is the church of the Lamb of God, and the other is the church of the devil; wherefore, whoso belongeth not to the church of the Lamb of God belongeth to that great church, which is the mother of abominations; and she is the whore of all the earth.
This passage sets up a division between the two churches, making it plain that one must belong to one or the other.
