High-ranking Mormons has to know Mormonism is a giant fraud

Lovalee,

When Jesus Christ said "Tetelestai" It is finished."

did he really mean except for until Joseph Smith gets finished taking peoples money to dig holes throughout western New York to find that buried treasure?

every single mormon i have ever met has been a good person. if any branch of christianity is legit im gonna say its theirs.

Lovalee,

Do you think the Truth matters to The One True Father God Almighty?

Don't care. I get to have three wives.

Yes Truth Matters beware of the Council of Nicea!!

Seriously not sure if this is your answer? But I do reject that the heavens are sealed. I pray expecting an answer.

“And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.” (Rev. 22:18–19.)

A careful reading of the words makes it clear that the warning against adding to or taking away does not refer to the whole Bible or even to the New Testament, but to use John’s words, only to the words of “the book of this prophecy.” That is, the prophecy contained in the book of Revelation. This is substantiated by the fact that some of the books of the New Testament had not yet been written when John wrote the book of Revelation, and even those that had been written and were in existence at that time had not yet been gathered into one compilation.

The collection of writings consisting of the sixty-six books we know as the Bible were brought together and compiled into one volume long after John wrote the prophetic book that has been placed at the end of the collection. It is clear, therefore, that the terrible judgments pronounced upon those who add to the book could not possibly apply to the whole of the Bible or even to the
New Testament, but only to the book of Revelation.

Hope that helps

Why did Joseph Smith think christ is a proper name?

Why did Jospeh Smith think lucifer is a proper name?

The question isn't if he was a prophet, we already know he wasn't.

When Jesus Christ died on the cross and rose again back to heaven,

why do you say that was not enough,

but that Joseph Smith was yet required?

So what then, precisely, was so necessary that Joseph delivered?

So what then, precisely, was so necessary that Joseph delivered?

You can only believe that the mere man Joseph Smith was in any way necessary at all for anything

if you do not really know, understand or believe much of anything about Jesus Christ.

LOL What a faggish thing to say.

I think you might find this fun even if you only focus on the Bible although the Book of Mormon is loaded with this poetic organization of writing..

Chiasmus was first noticed by a few nineteenth century pioneer theologians in Germany and England, but the idea had to wait until the 1930s before it found an ardent exponent, Nils Lund, who was able to lay the principle before the eyes of the world in a convincing way. But even at that, it was not until the decade of the 1960s, after much more had been learned about the philology of early Semitic languages, that chiasmus was properly understood and unequivocally acknowledged. Today, articles on the subject are quite common.

What is it that has drawn this attention? To see this for ourselves, we had best begin with an example of chiasmus, and a convenient one is to be found in Psalms 3:7–8

.....
the Book of Mormon itself, we find that it more than fulfills our expectations. It contains chiasms of all sorts and sizes. Some are long, some are short; some are poetical, some are practical; some are simple, some are elaborate. They all are artistic and meaningful. More often than not, the prophets of the Book of Mormon use chiasmus as a device through which they can focus our attention upon the central idea of their message. This is done by placing the central idea at the turning point of the chiasm. Significantly enough, the central idea of the majority of chiastic passages in the Book of Mormon deals with the divinity of Jesus Christ and man’s direct relationship to him.



FUN huh?

Which "contentions" about the Bible does the book of Mormon "clear up" exactly? Let's hear it
