Sigh... it appears that being WRONG about what the BIBLE says is indemic amoung SOME Mormons...
2 Corinthians 10:4-5
4. The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds.
5. We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.
It appears that being wrong about Mormons is endemic among sectarian Christians. BTW Elsie, I have question for you. What Bible did Peter and the ancient apostles use to lead the Church in their time? What Bible did Jesus preach from?
Which Bible verse told Peter that the gospel should be extended to Cornelius and the Gentiles? What passage witnessed to John the Baptist that he baptized the Lamb of God? What Bible passage told Paul that Jesus is Lord? What Bible verse told Peter that Jesus was the Christ, the Son of the living God? Revelation was the foundation of the Church anciently. Thus it is today in the Restored Church.
If I recall what the Bible says, it was the Pharisees who used their scriptures to try to disprove living oracles of God. That’s an all too familiar situation today as sectarians use their Bible to disprove the living oracles who speak for God today. Jews today use the same scriptures you do to support their position that the Messiah has not yet come. People will interpret the book however they wish.
You have more in common with Annas and Caiaphas than you do with Peter or Paul. It will always be the case that prophets of God will be opposed by people like you who place the written word before the Living Word in precedence.
