Please explain to us how the Brighamites are correct and the Strangites, FLDS, and RLDS(Coc) have it wrong?

They all share the same origins.

Stragites and RLDS formed after Smith's death, neither believed polygamy was from god.

Brighamites formed after Smith's death and was comprised of those who believed Smith and Young's statements concerning polygamy.

Later, LDS formed after Wilford Woodruff bowed to the demands of the US government.

This left the FLDS as the only lasting organization which follows all of the principles of the founders.

Each of the organizations have similar compelling witnesses and recorded miracles as LDS.

Prove to us that LDS is the only divine restored gospel.

I can't prove it to you. But God can. Just ask Him.

I just did. He didn't answer.

What's the problem now?

You didn't do it right. Keep doing it until you get the right answer.

Actually, based on my past interactions with Charity, I think she would think that "keep doing it" (which I did for over a year) would constitute annoying nagging, and kevin should, instead, live his life as if he knows it's true, and one day the answer will come.

So then, how do you account for folks in these other sects who have the same feelings from god about their faith, the same witness that you received concerning your faith in LDS?

How do you decide that your witness is divine and theirs is not?

This is very true. I listened to the testimony of a woman associated with some polygamous group in Utah, and it was striking how much it sounded just like an LDS testimony.

It was on that site where that fellow interviews various people associated with Mormonism somehow.. the name is escaping me. If I remember, I'll come back and link it.

I think it's on mormonstories, and her name is Anne.

Found it!

She bears her testimony at the very end of her interview.
