The Most Correct Book: Joseph Smith's Appraisal of the Book of Mormon
Robert L. Millet; he who is built upon the rock will we receive this work with gladness.
Much has been said and demeaning about bro Millet
...separating the wheat from the chatter of the tears!
I could not leave without leaving these words of bro Millet
Understand the words such as precepts, the word “most correct’ and how it was used in the 1800's, things of God are only known by the power and spirit of God, the truthfulness and much much more...
Most importantly again he who is built upon the rock receive this work with gladness
The Book of Mormon was met for the children of today and the thing of most worth was preserved.
The Book of Mormon is not on trial it is the people and the members of today and how they treat and what they do with the Book of Mormon.
These were Mormons who conducted the research, who were in various fields of expertize. Needless to say after their findings that nothing whatsoever evidences the Book of Mormon as true...they left. They traveled all over the world for this study...it was not done at a library table...they actually sought the sites mentioned in the BOM....nothing there...not a thing of the civilizations the Bom mentions nor the places...no artifacts whatsoever. And in case you don't know...there are always artifacts and various other proofs that cultures existed....always. The Mormon history is the only one who can not support it's history...because it simply isn't true...and again...your Leadership knows this.....haven't you ever wondered why they haven't excavated Mt. Moriah? Because they know nothings going to be found if they do!
???
All great writings throughout history have been supported by archalogical evidence of one form or another....most of all the BiBle...which is even used by historians, scientists, and others who aren't believers. That's because it has been the most documented, open and transparent book for any to investigate...and no other book has been studied for accurecy as it has...... They know it to be true simply from the historical proofs evidencing so. Not to mention the historical agreement that Christ did indeed live as is stated.
The Bom has nothing...not an inch of evidence...and there's not an inch of evidence what happened to Joseph Smith happened as he said...zip nothing.
Therefore you are believing in something that's fake and unfortunately tricked by what ever good feel you got along the way
You are certainly free to believe as you will as anyone can...I can believe the moon is made of cheese too...but the facts would disprove me..
Faith does not come from archaeological find and in the scheme of things means little!
Yet it means lot to those of little faith!
Thats all I asked...
Lets try this again...
Resty why are there no Crosses on mormon buildings ???
Faith comes by hearing the word of God...just as it is written...and artifacts...historical writings and finds support Gods word. The BOM Has nothing at all to support it's writing..and in fact has been shown to be untrue for that.
Jesus came to voluntarily give up His life as a Sacrifice for sin, this is the only reason He became man.

Ah well no,,,Jesus never said that...
The LORD Jesus Christ said to Resty, “I came that you might have Life, and have Life more abundantly” John 10:10
This is silly banter and means nothing in the end.
This group is doing unto the Bible as the antis do unto the Book of Mormon.
The Bible vs. Archaeology, You Decide.

So many cling dearly to the temporal language of the world and have little regards for the Language of the Lord!
Excuse but I did not write that...
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Looking back it does appear that you may have been quoting another FReeper...
However I believe you DID write this...
Resty: I agree with much of what you said, but there was never any phyiscal cross used during the times of the Apostles.
_________________________________________________
The Apostles were all alive and well during the time the LORD Jesus Christ hung on the “physical Cross” and shed His Blood on the Cross and died there to save us...
They wrote about the Cross in the New Testamewnt of the Christian Bible because they were there and SAW it with their own eyes...
Thats called EYE WITNESSES...
So....
Why did you say that ???

Kid if that wasd really important to you
you would disregard what the temporal worldly Joey Smith had to say...
and read and believe the Christian Bible...
Most correct - 4000+ “corrections”, a story disproved by every aspect of science.
Seems you don’t understand the Bible and there was NEVER a Physical symbol during the times the apostles were on earth that came 300 years later during the reign of the Pagan Murder Constantine!
BTW The Lord no longers hangs upon the cross...
News break; the Lord has raisen hosanna hosanna hosanna in the highest
how cute of you
I am talking about after the time Jesus was crusified.
No one wore a cross nor were any churches in 100 AD have crosses!
They did use the sign of the fish!
LOL makes me wonder how many grammatical corrections over the thousands of years the various biblical manuscripts had gone through!
lol based upon extant Greek and Hebrew ms.
too bad your warranty for the peepstone expired
First of all it was the Pagan Murder Constantine around 325 AD who was the first to use the physical symbol of the Cross NEVER before that time.

Resty, honey, that is LDS propaganda, not real History.
We have evidence of the Cross being used as a Christian symbol as early as 80 AD. Read John Stott’s the Cross of Christ for even more evidence that the Cross was central to Christian symbolism prior to Constantine.
Remember, I’m a historian.
You leaving us, Resty?
The only way we can have “LIFE” is that Jesus paid our sin debt by dying on the cross, no atonement no Life for you or me. We would still be dead in our sins and would have no way to reconcile with the Father, since all our good works on our own are seen as filthy rags in God’s eyes.
