Why Do LDS Dismiss the Greater Part of the New Testament?

gdemetz, I think I am done with you. For all your boasting and dogmatism you demonstrate few qualities that I find admirable in any way. There is no problem in disagreeing with people but you excel in simply being unpleasant.

You've done well to last as long as you have Albion, kudos to you.

It is pointless trying to have a reasonable dialogue with gdemetz who seems to prefer insult, ridicule and none answers over conversation. I have just returned from a profound visit to Israel and there are so many thoughts whizzing around in my head that I just cannot deal with his abrasive dogmatism at this time.

As a Christian, I want to lead the likes of gdemetz to a real meaningful relationship with The Lord Jesus Christ. In so doing, I want to mature in my own faith in Christ Jesus.It is often very easy to point fingers at others, but it also comes down to pulling the plank out of one's own eye. It is my prayer that gdemetz will turn from trying to defend an organization and simply let God speak to him in what really matters --- a relationship with Christ. However, he needs to come to a realization of who Jesus is and what Jesus is not. Jesus is the Creator. He isn't related to angels in anyway aside from having made them. He isn'r our physical brother. We were created and Christ was not. Our existance is for His gorification and not that of our own. This is what all Mormons and unbelievers must contend with.

Give me a break, Nipper! I keep quoting Christ and the Bible and you and Albion keep spouting out evangelical hogwash, and you want me to convert to that?! There is nothing Biblical at all about your doctrine!

You place your faith in the correctness of Mormonism. Jesus Christ seems to take a back seat at best. What is biblical regarding Mormon doctrine? They needed to add extra books --------------------- did they not? Mormon's didn't get to where they are now knocking on doors peddling the Bible. If they did, I'm sure there would be MUCH less for you to argue about...

Each spotlight the event from different aspects. Both are correct with regard to the aspect focused on in the message studied.

When In doubt check the Bible obviously. I would not have been born again without having The Bible. It's not like a persons relationship with Jesus no longer grows after being born again.

Do I believe in the Trinity? Yes. Do I know as to what capacity each element of the Trinity operates? No. Do I understand fully what it means to live with God when we die? No. Do I believe teaching lies for the greater good of the people with good intent can somehow bring a person to Heaven? The Bible says no. When all else fails look toward the word.
