Hi Reaganaut,

We believe that Jesus has placed His authority in the Church by delegating the keys of the kingdom to His earthly servants — this was the same authority the Christ gave to Peter in the ancient Church.

We believe that his authority was restored by the Lord upon Joseph Smith and continues today.

Regards,

Normandy

So basically Mormons believe Peter lost the keys to the Church...

It happens I guess...

Should have had a spare set...

The Mormon Jesus obviously has trouble hiring good help...

Glad the real one is a tick more competent...

1. Of course you “believe it”: but it isn’t based on anything except feelings.

2. Reaganaut knows more about mormonism than you do.

Exactly. Which is why the faith of the LDS is put in the ‘Church’ rather than Christ.

I know what the LDS believe, but that doesn’t make it true.

If the 3 Nephites are still here, then there never was an apostasy. Period.

Besides which, Christ Himself said there would not be one, that He would be with us always.

I know you have a lot invested in Mormonism, but that doesn’t make it true. Mormonism is a lie that will send you to Hell, no matter how polite you are (and I do appreciate your polite responses).

Do the same “we” also “believe” that women are as entitled to be “delegated the keys” as men ???
