>>This backs up Quester's supposition that there is NO evidence.

There is evidence, you just don’t accept it as genuine to state that there is “NO EVIDENCE” is to state a falsehood.

To denigrate those who are dead and leave their testimony for you is to dishonor your own.

>>Their signed testimony that they saw something, they lifted something heavy,
>>and it may have been a hallucination just doesn't hold up.

Your statements here are what just does not hold up. You look at evidence and say there is none, you hear testimony of the divinity of Christ and say you do not feel the spirit, yet you would teach others of belief in Christ? Heal thou thin own unbelief. (to paraphrase scripture)

If I were to say such nonsense in responding to your posts you would ridicule me until the cows come home (Note the posts over my confusing your names…)

I will bring forward the stuff from my post #531.to tmp02

Corinthians 12:3-6
3 Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost.

4 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.

5 And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord.

6 And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all.

So, Jesus is the Lord my God He is the redeemer of my soul, and the only Power under heaven by which man (of which I am) can be saved. I confess that I have committed sins of which I am striving diligently to repent, and through the atonement of Jesus Christ only have I hope of redemption that in the last day I may be saved with the just.

So, by what spirit did I just testify of Christ? The Book of Mormon also testifies of Christ. Can a work that is from the Devil testify of Christ?

Delphi, you are funny. You use this verse to say that the only way that someone can say the words, "Jesus is Lord" is through the Holy Ghost. Mormon's believe that the only way to get the gift of the Holy Ghost is through the "laying on of hands by one with proper authority." You use this same logic to say that only members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints can have the gift of the Holy Ghost.....All others, Catholic, Protestants, do not have the authority to have this gift. So how do they profess that Christ is Lord?

John 4:1-3 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.

2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:

3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.

1 John 1.18: Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.

1 John 1.19: They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us.

I think teaching of another Christ of a different Christ, teaching of one who is Lord but not God. One who is flesh, but just like a myriad of other gods that came in the flesh, would be denying that Christ is Lord. Search the Bible. The Bible clearly says: There is one Lord

Deu 6:4 Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD Mar 12:29 And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord.

Luk 18:19 And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? none is good, save one, that is, God.

1Co 8:6 But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.

Gal 3:20 God is one. Eph 4:6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.

1Ti 2:5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;

Mal 2:10 Have we not all one father? hath not one God created us? why do we deal treacherously every man against his brother, by profaning the covenant of our fathers?

Mar 12:32 And the scribe said unto him, Well, Master, thou hast said the truth: for there is one God; and there is none other but he:

Rom 3:30 Seeing it is one God, which shall justify the circumcision by faith, and uncircumcision through faith.

Jas 2:19 Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble.

You can recognize false doctrine by knowing the word of GOD. You must validate for yourself every doctrine you hear with the word of GOD (Bible). Otherwise the antichrist will lead you into a false belief. You will think you are following Christ but you will be a follower of the Antichrist.
