You asked once what we opposed to Mormonism thought to be the greatest heresy in Mormonism. I would amend the response I gave then, to add the following, for this seems to be a point over which blindness is deep amongst the Mormonism adherents ... a man such as Joseph Smith teaching clear heresies ought be called to accounts, and in his stead his followers ought be called for promoting such an heretic as if he were a prophet of God.

The teaching of Mormonism/Smith concerning plural marriage and 'spirit children' conceived in Heaven by couples married while on earth and sealed to Mormonism is a particularly exposed heresy. In many places in the New Testament we are taught that in the resurrection and/or in Heaven men and women are neither married nor given in marriage, yet Mormonism teaches its adherents to be married and sealed in Mormon Temple for the purpose of doing that which the Bible states clearly will not happen!

To promote this gross lie as doctrine, Mormonism claims 'neither marry nor are given in marriage' refers to ceremony and does not address sexual or reproductive behavior in Heaven. This purposed sowing of a lie is refuted by the teaching of the Bible in Luke 17:27, Luke 20:34 (Jesus making it plain), Matthew 20:30, Mark 12:25, Luke 20:35 and in ICor 7:38. The Mormonism Apologists would twist these clear teachings in scripture, to sow doubt into which they may pour their heresies regarding temple ordinances of Mormonism --and plural marriage, prior to their leaders recending the false declaration of an 'everlasting covenant' by Smith-- reproductive behaviors in Heaven which the Bible makes clear do not happen! Let the Apologists address this issue with their guile from Satan, to illustrate the foundational spirit which upholds Mormonism claiming to be 'restored' Christianity. The readers may judge accordingly, of what spirit this Mormonsim religion is spawned.

This kinda of hard to do, for unlike the end of a poker hand, where EVERYONE's cards are exposed to indicate who won, the LDS Organization refuses to show some of their's, claiming 'SACREDNESS' and a VOW prevents them from showing their down cards (Temple Ceremonies).

They claim "WE WIN!!" because they haven't gotten upset or shouted mean things at the other players.

Unlike Kenny Rogers, they've not figgered out "when to fold 'em".

I Timothy 3:2 -

An overseer, then, must be above reproach, the husband of one wife,
 
temperate, prudent, respectable, hospitable, able to teach.
 
 
 
In regards to your note of POLYGAMY in the Mormon Church historically - and in
particular to the POLYGAMY of Joseph Smith, the Mormon "prophet"...
 
According to the Bible, written by the APOSTLE PAUL, Joseph Smith was
 
DISQUALIFIED
 
to be a leader of any Christian Church, since he married over 20 wives. This alone
tells you that the "revelation" he claims was false. It violated the clear Word of God.
 
He also failed to qualify as a leader by leading a life that was not "above reproach."
