Nice try, DU, but the statement above directly challenges my testimony FROM GOD.
Anti's challenge my testimony "FROM GOD" all the time, so? I did not challenge your testimony
of God, that gets you ETERNAL PERIL.
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?
I was not asking you for personal details about your relationship with God, I claimed no more authority than Curiosity, and have no more authority to question your testimony than Antis have to question mine, but they do and you don't seem to complain, in fact, you are one of them.
Look to your OWN "peril" as a follower of a charlatan instead of a follower of Jesus.
I think I'm just going to keel over and die from the shock of that charge... NOT!
Do you guys ever get tired of claiming we worship Joseph Smith and not Jesus?
It's such a blatant, easily provable lie, that it's funny to watch you guys pull out that old cannard over and over...
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.
So, theoretically, if an anti (where anti's have stated that lying in fighting Mormons is OK) Lies and saying they have read the Book of Moron and Prayed about it in all earnestness, and relieved a resounding NO! When in reality all they did was post about doing such a thing, how is anyone supposed to know? if they ask questions about the ill thought out story, they are branded as denying a "TESTIMONY FROM GOD" If they mildly sit by and allow the false claim to succeed, they are "proved wrong" by a lie.
This would be a masterful set up, except that it's too obvious, A group who teaches that it is OK to lie if necessary when Debating Mormons cannot be questioned about telling a lie?
Some "challenge" that is!
Actually, it is. Anti's who claim to have taken the challenge then run from questions like a cow from a branding iron! Simple questions go unanswered, like "how did you receive a negative answer?", "What exactly were you asking God in your prayer?", "What exactly were your preparations for an answer from on high?"
If these questions sound familiar, they should, they were the questions that I asked you in my post after you had claimed a negative response, and you never answered a one of them.
Why? I'm not exactly asking for details, I just want to know if you prayed about the Book of Mormon or some thing else, since antis routinely make fun of "burners" I wanted to know the method of communication. And since in my opinion asking such a question should not be done lightly, I asked what preparations you made for receiving an answer from on High (If for example, you had said, well, I set down my beer and my pizza, asked my mistress to stop that for a moment, and turned off the porno and prayed... I'd say Houston we have found the problem!) I am not insinuating that you actually DO any of these things, just that I hate to assume when I can simply ask what preparations you made...)

We have a mormon who has accused another of being in "ETERNAL PERIL" for supposedly questioning HIS testimony!
This mormon believes HE has the right to accuse others of "if an anti (where anti's have stated that lying in fighting Mormons is OK) Lies and saying they have read the Book of Moron and Prayed about it in all earnestness, and relieved a resounding NO! When in reality all they did was post about doing such a thing,"
AGAIN others are accused of "lying about their personal testimony" while the mormon accuser claims his own testimony to be sacrosanct.
It is mind-boggling that a mormon claims the authority and right to question a non-mormon about the method of the non-mormon gaining a testimony of the falsness of the book of mormon as if it were anyone's business! DU states: " I just want to know if you prayed about the Book of Mormon or some thing else", which is a direct personal insinuation.
It is also mind-boggling that mormons can, time and again, discredit and denigrate the testimony of non-mormons in such a condescending manner, and believe that those who read these threads do not see the hypocrisy.
