You must have had some help from the missionaries.
They are very good at "converting" some Christians.
Hopefully you will come back into the fold, but I'm not sure if you ever were a Christian from your post.
I did notice that you were a member of several churches.
And then there was the in-fighting among Christians. As bad as we LDS have it here w/ you folks, you're often as bad w/ each other when we're not around. The vitriol expressed towards fellow “Christians” was appalling. Similar to the scenario w/ the Muslims & Jews. The Muslims often state there would be peace if the Jews were annihilated. The fact is, the Muslims have had wars among themselves far more than they ever have w/ the Jews. “Christianity” has a similar history. Always will when you have competing ideas, theories, & theology w/o divine intervention.
Maybe that's why the Lord always had a prophet, His mouthpiece, to guide the early saints, & why He set up the same as He was here on earth through a prophet & apostles. But even w/ that, the Lord still instructed His people to come to Him for confirmation of truth. I heeded that call & as stated, will be forever in His debt. I was never converted by the arguments or 2 young missionaries. I was converted when I was by myself, after a great deal of study, & pondering, before the Lord asking His will.
Where things never made sense, especially w/ all the competing doctrines, things became very clear & ultimately, confirmation from the Lord was had. I no longer was reliant on the “arm of the flesh”. With nobody around, I received answers of my Father. I suspect you will castigate that or poo-poo it. That's your issue, not mine. Try it sometime w/ sincerity.
Thanks for the opportunity to share. Busy day. My best to you & yours.

I have a hard time believing that ANYONE who truly accepted Christ’s sacrifice for their sins and believed in the Gospel of Grace could turn their back on Christ and embrace the heresy of the LDS.
I had a “head” knowledge of Christ, but not “heart” one, which is how I was deceived by Mormonism. I thought I was a Christian, but I really wasn’t. Only after I left the LDS did I come to a “heart” knowledge of Jesus Christ and accepted HIM ALONE as my Savior.
