Galatians 1:8
But even if we or an angel from heaven should proclaim to you a gospel contrary to what we proclaimed to you, let that person be condemned!

In a similar vein, suppose that angel reveals the gospel exactly the same as what Christ and his apostles proclaimed and you disbelieve it. Does that not condemn you?LittleNipper wrote:Galatians 1:8

And why would an angel re-reveal what is already available? To what purpose would such a revelation be?

Why do parents repeat the same instructions to their children? Because they don't listen.

A false gospel had already been on the earth for centuries, so when it came time for the restitution of all things, then an angel "flying through the midst of with the everlasting gospel" to be preached upon the earth was necessary! Notice which church these angels brought this EVERLASTING gospel to!

He can't mean Christianity because Mormons are Christians...

Perhaps, I should have stated false gospels. Man made gospels and creeds, etc., which have no Biblical or scriptural basis, such as the Athenasian creed.

Well, I happen to know that Mormons accept more then just the Bible and the Book of Mormon. They believe that if they are married in the "Temple" they are married forever. They believe that they will be able to "create" their own "universes." They at least accepted that to become a "prophet" one once needed to have more than one wife. Sorry, none of this is biblical. Sounds like adding fable to the scripture to me.

Where, in the scriptures, does it tell us that we need to clasp hands in a certain way whilst saying certain specific words in order to gain entrance to heaven?
