When Glenn Beck told listeners of his radio show on March 2 that they should "run as fast as you can" from any church that preached "social or economic justice" because those were code words for Communism and Nazism, he probably thought he was tweaking a few crunchy religious liberals who didn't listen to the show anyway. Instead he managed to outrage Christians in most mainline Protestant denominations, African-American congregations, Hispanic churches, and Catholics...

Yada yada yada....

John 5: 39
39 ¶ Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.

Acts 17: 11
11 These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.

Jacob 7: 23
23 And it came to pass that peace and the love of God was restored again among the people; and they searched the scriptures, and hearkened no more to the words of this wicked man.

Alma 14: 1
1 And it came to pass after he had made an end of speaking unto the people many of them did believe on his words, and began to repent, and to search the scriptures.

Alma 17: 2
2 Now these sons of Mosiah were with Alma at the time the angel first appeared unto him; therefore Alma did rejoice exceedingly to see his brethren; and what added more to his joy, they were still his brethren in the Lord; yea, and they had waxed strong in the knowledge of the truth; for they were men of a sound understanding and they had searched the scriptures diligently, that they might know the word of God.

Alma 33: 2
2 And Alma said unto them: Behold, ye have said that ye could not worship your God because ye are cast out of your synagogues. But behold, I say unto you, if ye suppose that ye cannot worship God, ye do greatly err, and ye ought to search the scriptures; if ye suppose that they have taught you this, ye do not understand them.

3 Ne. 10: 14
14 And now, whoso readeth, let him understand; he that hath the scriptures, let him search them, and see and behold if all these deaths and destructions by fire, and by smoke, and by tempests, and by whirlwinds, and by the opening of the earth to receive them, and all these things are not unto the fulfilling of the prophecies of many of the holy prophets.

No, grasshopper...

The Christian Bible is not a record of Joey Smith...

However Joey Smith is mentioned...

Though not in a good light...

Excuse me while I quote from what Joey Smith called an “abominable creed”

The Creed that I as a Christian, love... the Christian Bible..

And if anyone takes words away from this book of prophecy, God will take away from him his share in the tree of life and in the holy city, which are described in this book. Revelation 22:19

Matthew 24:23-24
For false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and miracles to deceive even the elect—if that were possible.

Matthew 7:15
“Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves.

Matthew 24:10-11
10. At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other,
11. and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people.

Mark 13:21-22
21. At that time if anyone says to you, `Look, here is the Christ!’ or, `Look, there he is!’ do not believe it.
22. For false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform signs and miracles to deceive the elect—if that were possible.

Luke 6:26
Woe to you when all men speak well of you, for that is how their fathers treated the false prophets.

Acts 13:6-7
6. They traveled through the whole island until they came to Paphos. There they met a Jewish sorcerer and false prophet named Bar-Jesus,
7. who was an attendant of the proconsul, Sergius Paulus. The proconsul, an intelligent man, sent for Barnabas and Saul because he wanted to hear the word of God.

2 Corinthians 11:12-14
12. And I will keep on doing what I am doing in order to cut the ground from under those who want an opportunity to be considered equal with us in the things they boast about.
13. For such men are false apostles, deceitful workmen, masquerading as apostles of Christ.
14. And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light.

2 Corinthians 11:26
I have been constantly on the move. I have been in danger from rivers, in danger from bandits, in danger from my own countrymen, in danger from Gentiles; in danger in the city, in danger in the country, in danger at sea; and in danger from false brothers.

Galatians 2:4
[This matter arose] because some false brothers had infiltrated our ranks to spy on the freedom we have in Christ Jesus and to make us slaves.

2 Peter 2:1
But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them—bringing swift destruction on themselves.

1 John 4:1
Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.

Israel shall inherit the land in the resurrection—The stick of Judah (Bible) and the stick of Joseph (Book of Mormon) become one in the Lord’s hand—Israel shall be gathered and cleansed—The Messiah shall reign over them—They shall receive the everlasting gospel covenant.
_____________________________________

ISRAEL...as in the Jews...or spiritual Jews...

thats not the mormons...

the term MORMON is not in the Christian Bible...

You can throw Christian Bible scriptures that you have been fed by idiots with less sense and knowledge than you have..

and it wont make a lick of difference...

Joey Smith was not a prophet...he was just a showman...a conman...a scam artist...an occultist...a whore monger, pedophile, murderer thief, a jailbird... a common criminal.. a charlatan...a liar..an adulterer...a boaster that God destroyed..

The book of mormon is fiction.. poorly written fiction...written to seel for a quick buck...

Polygamy is a foul sin not a way to get to God...

Joey Smith is in Hell where he belongs...not standing keeping people out of God’s Heaven...what blasphemy...

Jesus died for everyone ...maler and female...

Women are equal with men in God’s kingdom...unlike the mormon god’s after life where women are sex slaves...

Mormonisnism is not Christianity...

Christians are going to be knocking on the mormon god’s door ???

ROFLMBO

exactly and worth a repost:

Being saved by Grace causes us to live a certain way, it does require us to live that way.

The LDS have the cart before the horse again.

If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us. (KJV)

Kinda throws out the downplaying of sin the LDS do, doesn’t it.

“well, it is just a ‘bad habit’, not a sin”, “I need to try harder to live the commandments”, “I don’t REALLY sin”. I have heard ALL of those (and said them) when I was Mormon.

Actually, this statement shows YOUR ignorance Resty.

The “Christian Bible” is a term for the New Testament that is common in Biblical Studies.

The Old Testament is similarly called the “Hebrew Bible”.

There are some hardliners who say that the word “Bible” ONLY applies to the Christian writings and that the OT should properly be called the Tanach (which is the Hebrew term for it).

Wow, Resty. Read Ezekiel 37 in CONTEXT.

The idea that it is talking about the Bible and Book of Mormon is pathetically ridiculous!!!

The ‘sticks’ is the divided kingdom of Israel and Ezekiel 37 is speaking of the reuniting of the Northern and Southern kingdoms.

Verse 22 says this EXPLICITLY:

And I will make them one nation in the land upon the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king to them all: and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all.

And it in no way refers to the last days. The kingdoms were reunited a long time ago.

When things get bad out there don’t come knocking on Zions door for relief and if I should be or one of us become aware that you Colofornian or your kind want in, we will tell how you spoke endlessly like Sherman and have tried to annihilate the Lord’s Church

- - - - - - -
ROFLMHO!!!

Resty, what would you think, if one day - all of a sudden, millions of people (many of whom are ‘antis’) just disappeared, all at once, without a trace? And you were still here.

What would you think happened?

How are we acting like the “anti Christ” resty? Please be specific.

Christ took the legalists to task and cleansed the temple of those who would turn religion into a corporate empire (business). He opposed those whom the LDS church emulates, not those of us who speak the truth.

I feel like I’m knockin’ on heaven’s door.

Knock, knock, knockin’ on heaven’s door
Knock, knock, knockin’ on heaven’s door
Knock, knock, knockin’ on heaven’s door
Knock, knock, knockin’ on heaven’s door

Mama, put my guns in the ground
I can’t shoot them anymore.
That long black cloud is comin’ down
I feel like I’m knockin’ on heaven’s door.

Knock, knock, knockin’ on heaven’s door
Knock, knock, knockin’ on heaven’s door
Knock, knock, knockin’ on heaven’s door
Knock, knock, knockin’ on heaven’s door
