Nice try, DU, but the statement above directly challenges my testimony FROM GOD.
I challenged your anti-testimony of the Book of Mormon, not a testimony of Jesus. If I had indeed challenged your testimony of Jesus, then I would be in peril as well.
my logic still stands about your "testimony", and you never did answer the questions
As to answering questions, why would I even consider answering charges regarding my personal relationship with God from someone who has NO authority to charge, question OR challenge?
Look to your OWN "peril" as a follower of a charlatan instead of a follower of Jesus.
This exchange beautifully illuminates the hypocracy of the mormon's "challenge" to read the BOM and pray about it", by showing the attitude of mormons towards those who pray, study and receive a warning from the Holy Spirit about their false "scripture" being sold to the world.
Mormons consider them to be liars if they don't receive the message that Joseph Smith is a true prophet of God.
Some "challenge" that is!
DU - “If I had indeed challenged your testimony of Jesus, then I would be in peril as well.”
UnScriptural statement...
We are only in trouble if we reject Jesus, not a “messager” of any kind...
Some people hear the REAL Gospel preached many times before they accept the saving Grace that Jesus provided on the Cross...
If what DU said was true, there be a lot of born again Christians who would be going to Hell anyway...
But DU is wrong...
Jesus, Himself, said..
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. John 14:6
Mat 12:31 Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men.
Mat 12:32 And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come. Matthew 12:31, 32
And Jesus, Himself, on “eternal peril”
Jhn 3:15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
Jhn 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
Jhn 3:17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
Jhn 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
Jhn 3:19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
Jhn 3:20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.
Jhn 3:21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God. John 3:15-21
Mar 16:15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
Mar 16:16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. Mark 16:15, 16
Paul never took credit for a “witness” or threatened anyone with “eternal peril”....
1Cr 3:5 ¶ Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man?
1Cr 3:6 I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase.
1Cr 3:7 So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.
1Cr 3:8 Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour.
1Cr 3:9 For we are labourers together with God: ye are God’s husbandry, ye are God’s building.
1Cr 3:10 According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon.
1Cr 3:11 For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ. 1 Corinthians 3:5-11
