REQUEST FOR ASSISTANCE FROM LDS MEMBERS

I would like to gain a greater understanding of the Bible, and to learn to read the Book of Mormon like the Bible, but as many of you probably know:

1. The LDS Church has made thousands of CHANGES to the Book of Mormon and Doctrine and Covenants; and

2. Even after all of those changes, hundreds of obvious ERRORS still remain; and

3. Even after all of those changes, there are still many serious CONTRADICTIONS in Mormon Scripture.

In light of these facts:

1. Which version of the Book of Mormon, Doctrine and Covenants and Pearl of Great Price is correct?

2. How can someone know the Standard Works are true and Joseph Smith was not a false prophet?

3. And is it wise to trust in my feelings when your own church leaders teach I should have solid evidence to rely on before I seek guidance in prayer?

I have asked these question many times in the past and I have yet to receive a reasoned response.

Perhaps you can help me ... or perhaps somebody else can ... maybe today ... on this thread ...

And in keeping with the spirit of the LDS posters, would you please try to keep your arguments grounded in substance.

Thank you.

~”I have asked these question many times in the past and I have yet to receive a reasoned response.”~

[Sigh] And we have answered these same questions many times in the past.

If your questions are genuine, I think there are several of us here who would be happy to engage with you in a reasonable manner. Past experience, however, leads us to predict otherwise.

Perhaps some assurance of your genuine intent would be helpful?

No, I won’t help your saracastic sounding “quest”.
