The way some people speak of the Church makes it out to be an instrument of the devil himself. I have found the opposite to be true.

Jesus said, He was the way the truth and the life, no man may see the Father except by Him. Yet I have seen quotes from your own literature that we need an OK from Joseph Smith to get to Heaven.

Any religion that teaches this, is indeed, "of the devil himself".

I don't get involved too much usually, there are many people who post that are much more learned than I am on the subject of Mormonism, not one of them hates you, or is a "bigot", they want to see you see the light and be converted to Christianity. Jesus is truly the only way, not Joseph Smith.

I have seen people converted because of what they have learned on these threads and I praise God for it. My prayers are with you as are many others.

And aside from the quotes re: how we need Joseph Smith's consent to enter into some degree of salvation, we even have one of the worst forms of idolatry coming from the lips of the cousin of Mitt Romney's father, Marion G. Romney. Marion G. Romney was one of the top 3 members of the Lds church in the 1960s -- part of The First Presidency.

In stark contrast to John 14:6, which Graybeard58 cited, Marion Romney said: "This Church is the ensign on the mountain spoken of by the Old Testament prophets. It is the way, the truth, and the life" (Conference Report, April, 1961, p. 119)

I'm sorry, Normandy, but any that sets it self up as the "replacement" for Jesus Christ as "the way, the truth, and the life" is setting itself up for the biggest fall possible! Repent! For the Kingdom of God is at hand!
