“We are not Bible scholars. We just know our Bible and read it and study it.”
During 30+ years of talking with mormons and hundreds of hours here on FR talking with mormons, I’ve yet to meet a single mormon who knows the Bible. Not one.
They all seem to love the see and say method of seeing a word that is the same word mormonism teaches and then saying what it means - and always miss the meaning of the passage.
Hi ampu,
I know there are people who interpret some Bible passages differently from Mormons — and indeed there are different interpretations of scripture between different denominations.
This is why it is so helpful to have additional revelations from God which is what Latter day Saints believe we have. Additional revelation can help make clear some of the parts of the Bible over which there is disagreement and confusion.
We believe that God is not dead, nor does he sleep, and he is revealing his will to mankind through prophets just as he did in earlier days.
Regards,
