Deuteronomy 18:20-22 says this:

“A prophet who presumes to speak in my name anything I have not commanded him to say, or a prophet who speaks in the name of other gods, must be put to death. You may say to yourselves, ‘How can we know when a message has not been spoken by the Lord?’ If what a prophet proclaims in the name of the Lord does not take place or come true, that is a message the Lord has not spoken. That prophet has spoken presumptuously...”

Joseph Smith made numerous prophecies that failed to come true. Since the criteria is a single failed prophecy, obviously Smith is a false prophet.

God is eternal and almighty; He was never a man, and He is not flesh and blood. We don’t have the potential to become gods after we die, and we don’t get our own planets. Jesus paid for our sins on the cross, not in the garden of Gethsemane. And (Lord forgive me for speaking this blasphemy)God did not have sex with Mary to impregnate her.

You’re free to have those beliefs, but don’t call them the Gospel of Jesus Christ. They are not, and they never will be.

Then how can Jesus be G-d? Jesus was a human who had flesh and blood.

Read in Acts Chapter 5 where Gamiliel gives sage, sound advice: (I am paraphrasing) If these Christians are not from God, they will be scattered and amount to nothing; but if they are from God, they will prosper.

You will know them by their fruit.

The super religious people of the Bible were the very ones who crucified Jesus, who persecuted the Disciples, stoned Paul, imprisoned Peter . . . .

Be careful who you condemn to hell - that’s above your pay grade.

“We don’t have the potential to become gods after we die”

So you don’t believe the Holy Bible which states that we can become joint heirs with Christ?

You are free to believe as you will but maybe you should make sure you line up with the Word and you might want to think twice about throwing stones around.
