I have asked this question before maybe you know Grey. If as the lds state the church fell away about 200 years after Christ, why did He wait another approx 1600 years to restore it? Wouldn’t a loving God want His own to be with Him? I mean really He just blew off 1600 years of souls, waiting for Smith. And if as they state Smith was pre mortal, why didn’t he ask to be born before he was to get the ball rolling so to speak.
I've just been informed by a Mormon FReeper that the three Nephites never died and are in fact still around somewhere, so the priesthood never did leave the earth. What's up with that?
