Filtered through JS is right. *shakes head*
What gets me is the LDS idea that “errors” crept into the Bible during the “era of Constantine” and changed to include the “doctrines of Man.”
It appears beyond their grasp that God is powerful enough to keep His Word pure and intact. They really do believe in a weak god, don’t they?
BTW, when I was at BYU I took a Senior lvl seminar on Philosophy of Mormonism. One of the favorite topics was the “weakness” of God. I wrote a paper arguing against this.
There you go putting words in my mouth I came into this Church through the Book of Mormon No missionaries, no knowledge of Joseph Smith etc
I received the witness of the Holy Ghost before all this awareness.
So the only filrer I have is the Holy Ghost!
those who justify, deny or avoid did me a favor when I was investigating the Church for I had to solely rely on the Holy Ghost for answer with prayer and pondering in the name of Jesus Christ!
