What church? It's scripture that has the truth not some earthly organization formed by man.
Ok, understood. However, it was the founders of the Catholic Church after 300AD that decided what those scriptures would be.
You see, there was a whole lot more words of God and His dealings with man written by the prophets, as well as prophesies that those men discarded.
So you reject organized religion, but yet you use the list of scriptures approved by organized religion religion, is that right?
So if you use their scripture, then I assume you believe God was working through them, right? So, if you believe God was working through them, how can you say God wasn't working through them when they organized their church?

No, it was God who promised to preserve His word for ALL generations. Not that there would be some gap until the Mormons started up. Also, the Old Testement scriptures were entrusted to the Jews, not the Catholics.

No, I don't. I use the scriptures the Jews held as scriptures and what the apostles wrote. The Catholics, Mormons, and Muslims add to those.

God worked through Judas, Harrod, and Balaam's donkey also. Do you always follow someone who gets just one thing right?

Mormonism uses the KJV of the bible.
A book that has been superceded by the Mormon translated Inspired Version; which they do NOT use.
