And since your mormonism ‘scriptures’ are not inspired from God there is no ‘scripture’ to cite for you, mormon.
Of course there is, and you know it. The Bible is the word of God for the LDS as well as other Christians. That should be undeniable and a point of agreement but...
That aside, I am curious if your decades old friend is still your friend?
Typical of Mormon apologists, you make an assertion but have not provided a single BIBLE passage to support your assertion that there is scriptural proof in THE BIBLE for your mormonism claims. That exposes you as a prevaricator. And who is the father of prevarication? ... Yeah, your entire religion is antithetical to the Gospel of Grace, a Gospel you have yet to comprehend apart from the fraudulent lense of mormonism.
