"I stand on what I said. What you just posted has nothing to do with what I said not the perfection of God’s Holy word."

I understand that there are people that deify the Bible. I believe it's because it's their only link with God. Therefore, the Bible takes on super natural characteristics to them.

When God speaks, His words are perfect. Man however, is not. And therefore, the things man writes are prone to our human failings.

Oh that is rich from a Polytheist who himself fancies becoming a deity in his own time.

The Bible is sacred, it is Holy, it is the Word of God and worthy of respect, not worship.

The LDS denies the Bible, it twists it, says it is flawed and their own “most perfect book” (words of the LDS itself) are better and correct the word of God.

So again, I stand on what I said. If you are indeed a believer and not an operator manipulating poor souls, get out, get away from the blasphemy and the lies while your own soul remains intact.

If you are one of the manipulators of the LDS cult, then good luck, your battle is up hill and God’s people do not take kindly to the insults and games the cult plays with our Savior.

The Bible is not God, therefore no one worships it as God. However, it IS the WORD of God and we are commanded to heed His word, remember it, meditate upon in, teach it to our children and honor it. Many, many times in Scripture God commands His prophets to WRITE down the words He gave to them so that there would be no denial of them, confusion over what He spoke and that they would be preserved for all time. Heaven and earth will pass away, the word of God will NEVER pass away. Here are a few of those times where Almighty God commanded that His words be WRITTEN:

Now go, write it before them in a table, and note it in a book, that it may be for the time to come for ever and ever(Isa. 30:8)

The word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying, Thus speaketh the Lord God of Israel, saying, Write thee all the words that I have spoken unto thee in a book. (Jeremiah 30:1,2)

Take thee a roll of a book, and write therein all the words that I have spoken unto thee against Israel, and against Judah, and against all the nations, from the day I spake unto thee, from the days of Josiah, even unto this day. (Jer. 36:2)

And if they be ashamed of all that they have done, shew them the form of the house, and the fashion thereof, and the goings out thereof, and the comings in thereof, and all the forms thereof, and all the ordinances thereof, and all the forms thereof, and all the laws thereof: and write it in their sight, that they may keep the whole form thereof, and all the ordinances thereof, and do them. (Ezek. 43:11)

And the Lord answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it. (Hab. 2:2)

The Holy Bible has been given to us BY God so that we may have a "rule of faith" by which to know truth from error. You disparage those you claim make too much of the Bible. I think your religion's problem is you make too little of it.

The Doctrine and Covenants

Section 132

Revelation given through Joseph Smith the Prophet, at Nauvoo, Illinois, recorded 12 July 1843, relating to the new and everlasting covenant, including the eternity of the marriage covenant, and also the plurality of wives (see History of the Church, 5:501–7). Although the revelation was recorded in 1843, it is evident from the historical records that the doctrines and principles involved in this revelation had been known by the Prophet since 1831.

.
58–66, Laws governing the plurality of wives are set forth.
