Pretty much the whole Book of Mormon puts a person on the right path, however here's some essentials.

a. Jesus’ submission to the will of the Father (3 Nephi 27:13)
b. The Atonement (3 Nephi 27:14)
c. Resurrection (3 Nephi 27:14–15)
d. Judgment (3 Nephi 27:14–15)
e. Repentance (3 Nephi 27:16, 19–20)
f. Baptism (3 Nephi 27:16, 20)
g. Faith in Jesus Christ (3 Nephi 27:19)
h. The gift of the Holy Ghost (3 Nephi 27:20)
i. Enduring to the end (3 Nephi 27:16–17, 19)

Prophets, Apostles, priesthood authority...

When we join Christ's true Church it is recorded in heaven. When the books are opened at the judgement, our names have to be in that book in order to gain entry into the kingdom of God.

I don't see the LDS Church as anything other than a 19th century invention. Joseph Smith believed what a lot of Protestants believed about Christ's original true Church: that it was no longer visible, embodiedm or active in any existing (19th century) faith community, because the churches had supposedly apostatized very soon after the death of the last Apostle.

Therefore Joseph Smith saw himself as restoring the ancient Church.

(Please correct me where I'm wrong, because I know only a little about Mormonism.)

LDS acceptance of large amounts of new Scripture, none of it previously attested to before the 19th century, places the LDS at variance with all of historic Christianity. And I think Mormons would thoughtfully accept that statement as a fact. Am I right?

Aren't you the lucky one!

Getting The NUMBER and all that...

You'll need to explain to the uninformed here that the MORMON concept of 'heaven' has 3 levels.

Most MORMONs will NOT even be on the level where God the Father will reside.

I think that Storm prepper and his buds here will be on Level Two with us Prots and Catholics.

Then can you explain the D&C's to the ignorant?

That's if the "path" you want to follow is the one that leads to hell. Ironic that you got that post number!
