May I recommend The God Makers (Harvest House 1984)... Also a film/DVD

Seen it, they got two whole things right in the whole movie, the name of the church, and we are based out of Salt Lake City, Utah. The rest is so distorted as to be unrecognizable to a Mormon in good standing.

Ed Decker was a Temple Mormon, Melchizedek Priesthood, etc...

Ed Decker is from Washington State, my wife's family knew of him before he left the church (she's from there) and he was a bishop who got mad that he was not called to the stake presidency when he was released from the bishopric. He thought he'd "Earned it" my conversation with MHGinTN Post #385 When he was not called to be Stake president (because that was not what the lord had in mind) he got upset, criticised the General authorities, and left the church. He is now working against the church. Someone who obviously focused on "Works" and did not understand the basic principle of works being by faith, not for the praise of men is not exactly a good source.

Writing with Dave Hunt...
An apologist with whom I do not always agree...
But he does his homework verrrry well!


Been there, argued that, I have never had a problem with explaining "The God Makers" to anyone since I was 12, then again, I always did it face to face. As for the homework, LOL! It's why I start with what they get right, anyone who starts to list what they got wrong is going to end up with a very long list.

Sometimes the LDS folks discover what their elders really believe, and choose to keep seeking after the true Kingdom of God, and his righteousness!

And sometimes they just are not ready, enjoy your Pyrrhic victory while it lasts, LOL! Personally, I think he's pulling your chain to see if you make music...

We are going to agree to disagree...

I have been given agency by God to chose, Satan wanted to force men to obey, who's side are you on? I chose to disagree with your twisted interpretation of what we believe, and you and all the power of hell can't make me agree for I have been given that right by God.

What's wrong with this picture?? Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket You backed away to slowly?

You have a nice day Too...

Oh, and anyone who wants to peruse the "Long list" on the God makers, here it is from "Fair LDS" The Truth About "The God Makers", by Gilbert W. Scharffs If you are going to see the movie, be aware that it will be filled with the same kind of disrespectful an inflammatory language you see here on this forum, and then if you have the stomach for it, read, watch, you will see what depths those who oppose the church will be willing to sink to throw mud at people who have done nothing to them, but tell the truth.
