Jesus is looking fabulous af

Another Korihor!

Some 15 different men in ancient America, wrote the Book of Mormon, with Mormon combining their records into one set of plates. Joseph Smith translated the plates from Egyptian to English. There's the answer to your question.

These are beautiful buildings. At least its not a gas station or ikea. Just looking on the bright side. 😂

How absolutely stunningly beautiful it is! It will be a true house of God.

The Book of Mormon was written by multiple authors eons ago.

Waaaaahh

Very good story...Mine was similar.

Usually the ones that critique and complain about what others pay out for charity and service, in my experience are the ones that donate and serve the less.

Good job

Wow...how miserable your life must be...to leave something... And then obsess over for the rest of your life...how is it to wake up every day and think "ok what's the church up to today...what are they saying...doing watching building talking spending on and on and on all things LDS all.day everyday trying to tear down rip apart mock make fun of at etc all the while it just keeps on going and going never to taken from the earth...you must feel like your fighting against...well...God...

Dr. Evil's empire 😂

Ex mormons are just regular exes super hungup on their past relationship. Just go live your life dude, move on from her.

If gods are real their followers have a lot to answer for.

God will question us all. Period. Every single one of us.

Hey just curious, how much did you donate to Maui?

Well done. L.D.S. Inc. is a business posing as a church.

Deception has always been the LDS Church’s playbook.

LDS PLEASE DON'T REJECT GOD OF BIBLE & FOLLOW THE FALSE GODS of Joseph Smith? ISN'T YOUR ETERNITY WORTH EXAMINING THE TRUTH? "Before me NO god was formed, nor shall there be ANY after me.” (Isaiah 43:10) If Mormonism is true, then God could not make this claim, for he was just a man at one point; nor could he claim that no gods would come after him, for that is the goal of J.S. and LDS members. Isaiah 44:6 says, "I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is NO God." & "Is there any God besides me?... I know not one". God is saying there is NOT an infinite amount of Gods, and there is none like Him. LDS teaches that there is. Either the BIBLE or LDS is false. LDS paid scholar Dan McClellan in 2024: " The data pretty firmly points in the OPPOSITE direction of a historical BOM" youtube short video "Is the BOM historical?" NO Nephite "reformed Egyptian" writings described by J.S. (Mormon 9:32) ever found ANYWHERE. All reputable linguists have rejected it as mythical as of 2024. Professor Charles Anthon Feb. 17, 1834 NO trace of Jewish DNA found in any Indian burial ground anywhere in the Americas from period of BOM. Thomas W. Murphy, (LDS scholar, DNA expert): “the genetic evidence shows that American Indians are NOT Jewish. The Book of Mormon is not true.” John Whitmer Historical Association Journal 2005 NO truth: Book of Abraham published with 3 drawings from an Egyptian papyrus. The book is a funerary papyrus of scenes from the Egyptian Book of the Dead. In drawings Nos. 1 & 3, Smith misidentifies everything depicted. "LDS and non-LDS Egyptologists agree that the characters on the fragments do NOT match the translation given in the book of Abraham" Quote from LDS OFFICIAL WEB PAGE NO trace of “2 million Jaredites slain” (Ether 15:2), with iron, brass, breast-plates, shields, and armor. Impossible for millions of dead warriors in metal armor to leave no trace. NO trace of the "great city Zarahemla"- impossible for a city the size of Zarahemla described in BOM (4 Nephi 8; D&C 125:3) to leave no trace. NO temple like Solomon's described in 2 Nephi 5:16 has ever been found yet biblical temple is easily seen in Jerusalem. This "temple" could not just disappear. NO cities mentioned in the BOM have ever been located (none of 38) ANYWHERE. Impossible for them to disappear unless they never existed. NO evidence: "The whole land was covered with buildings, and the people were as numerous, as it were the sand of the sea." Yet NOT ONE ever located. (Mormon 1:7) IMPOSSIBLE for (Jaredites, Nephites) & MILLIONS of people to have vanished. There is NO archaeological, anthropological, topological, linguistic, botanical or dna evidence to support the BOM. LDS anthropologist Dee Green: “first myth we need to eliminate is that BOM archaeology exists”; 20 years of research “left us empty-handed” (Green 1969 p. 77) According to the Smithsonian Institute, the following items (which, according to BOM, existed in the Americas b/w 600 B.C. & 421 A.D.) have absolutely no evidence for existing in the America's during that time: Silk-Alma 4:6, Nephi 13:7; Horses-Enos 1:21; Steel-Jarom 1:8, 2 Nephi 5:15,16; Iron-2 Nephi 5:15; Coins-Alma 11:5-19; Donkeys-Mosiah 5:14, 12:5; Cattle, Cow, and Oxen-Enos 1:21; Pigs-3 Nephi 7:8; Wheat-Mosiah 9:9 NO goats, no metal smelting furnaces, no metal armor, no steel swords, no cattle, no chariot parts, no brass, no evidence of Kings in BOM Alma 18: 9-12; Mosiah 8:10 & 9:9; 1 Ne 18:25 CAN WE IGNORE THE STRONG EVIDENCE AGAINST THE BOM AND JUST TRUST OUR FEELINGS AS TO IT'S TRUTH EVEN THOUGH IT CONFLICTS WITH THE PHYSICAL EVIDENCE and the BIBLE? NO! D&C Section 9:8-9 - tells us that if something is true it will make our "bosom burn" and we will FEEL that it is right. Maroni 10:4 says: "he will manifest the truth of it unto you" The BIBLE WARNS us against this SUBJECTIVE type of truth test. The LDS test for truth violates the Biblical test. Why? Because we have a sinful nature that can be deceived. Proverbs 28:26 "He that trusts in his own (bosom) heart is a FOOL." This is why the Bible frequently urges us to study and meditate on God's word. 2 Timothy 2:15 KJV "STUDY ... rightly dividing the word of TRUTH." Acts 17:11 "EXAMINE THE SCRIPTURES to see if what said is TRUE". 1John 4:1 says: "BELIEVE NOT EVERY SPIRIT, ... because MANY FALSE PROPHETS (J.S.) have gone out into the world." LDS CLAIMS the bible was corrupted to justify Joseph Smith's changing of the biblical, eternal God into an evolving, created god, who is not all powerful and is one of an endless number of gods . This is a PROVABLY FALSE claim. The Claim: In the BOM, the prophet Nephi has a vision the Bible was CORRUPTED and "plain and precious parts" were removed AFTER the 12 apostles and after the formation of the “great and ABOMINABLE church” (1 Nephi 13:26-29). Nephi claims this church was founded by the DEVIL (1 Nephi 14:3). So let’s objectively TEST the BIBLE v.s. BOM. BIBLE: The Dead Sea Scrolls have been dated to as early as 350 BC. One is the Great Isaiah Scroll, the oldest known copy of the Book of Isaiah dated to 180 BC. Do ANY ancient scrolls show Smith's "uncorrupted" version of scripture? NO! Yet they would if the scripture was later corrupted after the 12 apostles died as Smith and Nephi said. Also, if they had been corrupted, Jesus would have corrected scripture instead of affirming it! Jesus sd:“ I told you EVERYTHING written about me in the Law of Moses, the Books of the Prophets, and in the Psalms had to happen.” (Luke 24:44-46) Scripture is the same today as it was 2,100+ years ago with only minor spelling and punctuation differences. Joseph Smith was wrong. These scrolls pre-dated Catholics, and are Jewish scrolls and the BOM says the Jews had the Scriptures in their "purity" and TRUTH. 1Nephi 13:25 LDS Apologist Wayne Ham admitted the Isaiah scroll does not support the the BOM. Apologist Dr. Sidney B. Sperry, of BYU, said the Dead Sea Scrolls do not help the case for the BOM. BYU Professor Joseph F. McConkie: "Rather than Joseph Smith as Found in Ancient Manuscripts, it ought be Joseph Smith as Lost in Ancient Manuscripts.” (Religious Studies Center, 1984) IS THE GOD OF THE BOOK OF MORMON THE SAME ONE AS IN THE BIBLE? NO! In the LDS Church’s 147th Conf., Gen Authority Bernard P. Brockbank said: the Christ followed by Mormons is NOT THE CHRIST followed by traditional Christianity. (Ensign, May 1977 p. 26) Like Joseph Smith, the goal of Satan was to be like God and have worshipers. "I will exalt my throne above the stars of God ... I will be like the Most High”’ (Isaiah 14:12-14) The new testament has not been corrupted either. See the book of John. Smith changed it to make Jesus a created being. Research a 1900 year old papyri known as the Bodmer Papyri of the book of John. (written 150 AD, around the Apostle John's time) John 1:1 "In the BEGINNING was the WORD and the WORD was WITH God and the WORD WAS God." ΕΝ ΑΡΧΗ ΗΝ Ο ΛΟΓΟΣ ΚΑΙ Ο ΛΟΓΟΣ ΗΝ ΠΡΟΣ ΤΟΝ ΘΕΟΝ ΚΑΙ ΘΕΟΣ ΗΝ Ο ΛΟΓΟΣ (look up this ancient Greek yourself on google) John 1:1 Joseph Smith mistranslation: "In the beginning was the GOSPEL preached through the Son. And the GOSPEL was the word, and the word was with the Son, and the Son was with God, and the Son was of God." Smith's Jesus is no longer God in the flesh but the biblical Jesus is: "God was manifest in the flesh" 1Tim. 3:16 KJV. In order to try to make things work for LDS, J.S. added extra verses and verbiage into John 1 that were never there in any ancient texts to try to separate the idea of a trinity into 3 Gods. There are 4,000 Greek manuscripts of the New Testament. Some go back to 350 AD and NONE support Joseph Smith's claims that the bible of today has been corrupted. Papyrus fragments exist of the New Testament dated to 175 AD and show that the new testament has NOT been "corrupted". (New Testament Docs: Are They Reliable? Grand Rapids: Eerdmans, 1967 pp. 15-17) The manuscript and archeological evidence for the BIBLE is the GREATEST in antiquity. I pray you know the true Jesus and not Joseph Smith's exalted man from another planet who is not eternal, not all powerful, not perfect but evolving, and was polygamous. God is much greater than the humanoid of Mormonism and NOT just ONE OF AN ENDLESS NUMBER OF EVOLVING GODS. Jesus said ALL scripture will NOT fade away but "many wolves in sheep's clothing" will come trying to add to the word. Mathew 7:15 Joseph Smith changed Jesus, the Father and taught you can become a GOD. It hurts my heart to see Mormons fall for the lie that we can become God when there is only one eternal God found in the bible. The law of God in regard to the African race? If the white man who belongs to the chosen seed mixes his blood with the seed of Cain, the penalty, under the law of God, is death on the spot. This will always be so. Brigham Young Journal of Discourses, Vol. 10, p. 110 "The only men who become Gods, even the sons of Gods are those that enter into polygamy." (Brigham Young) Journal of Discourses 11 p.269 Apostle Orson Pratt, in The Seer, page 172, “the great Messiah who was the founder of the Christian religion was a Polygamist…The son followed the example of his Father" God gave us critical thinking & logical reasoning for a reason, he tells us to EXAMINE and TEST what we are being taught for TRUTH. The bible withstands the truth test. Joseph Smith's version fails the truth test. It's your eternity, study it for yourself. God bless.

Temples are so spiritual. I have many spiritual experiences in the temples. Please don’t mock God.

Joseph had painted himself into a corner with all his affairs. It was either 'Yeah sorry guys you got me. I'm an adulterous monster' or 'God has told me that Polygamy is his new will' and he chose the latter. I think it's as simple as that. After the indignant folks with some critical thinking skills, split, he was left with those willing to along with his nonsense. 'Sorry guys, now you'll have to sleep with loads of women. Not my idea, it was God that said so, and as for the women, well that's what they're there for , right?'

Wow-- I'm glad the people of Fairview are standing up. The big tall spire on the temple is called an obelisk. It's an occultic symbol. It is NOT, as they try to tell people, a spire "reaching towards the heavens to remind us of our striving to be ever closer to God" or whatever the exact verbiage is that they keep trying to convince people of. There are occultic based hand symbols and handshakes that are performed as part of the lds temple ceremony that come directly from freemasonry. The hypocrisy of all of this is so blatant, the church should be ashamed of themselves. This all is a great example of what the church does to justify the hypocrisy-just don't look too close at anything. As long as you stay far away and don't look at the whole picture, it doesn't look so bad.

Oh and it is likely that the church was not as you say stopped their own age of inter mountain because it is likely government could force a religion to act against its own beliefs like how the state can force the christian baker to make a cake for a same sex wedding.

Hmmm....yeah that was kind of ignorant. As far as your comments about the church....lgbt people do exist but transgenders as scientifically not the sex to which they claim to be. Xx equals female and xy equals male. Science says that.

Everything this organization does is weird. It's their thing

Yikes, someone is bitter.

I've found atheists to be way more trustworthy than a devout mormon or Christian. The atheist will be truthful because they want to be, and not because they're trying to score points.

Maybe they need to make temples so big to assure all the people they baptize from the dead can see them from heaven?

It's a scam 'religion' that's been debunked on multiple accounts. Glad you were able to educate yourself and leave.

They have to launder their illicit funds somehow.

I can see your still trying to figure out the gender thing. Good luck with that!

They need to find ways to spend their hoarded extortion money so as to maintain their tax free status. Also, Nelson's own Ego needs to be satisfied to solidify his legacy.

Ohhhhh noooooooooooooooo

The church will do a lot of good for the world through this med school. Just you wait.

Cool story bro

It's about time

Are they going to be blocking out anatomy like they did in some of their anatomy books recently?

When you cherry pick data points, you can make two unrelated events seem connected. Look at all the similarities of the assassinations of Lincoln and Kennedy. Were they related or just coincidences? Similarly, Nephi is a unique name, but not totally unheard of. The apocrypha mentions the name Nephi (2 Maccabee’s). While coincidental, it doesn’t show one led to other. Also, the compasses in the museum compared to the Liahona mentioned in the Book of Mormon is a stretch and made to give this tenuous relationship more credibility than it has.

They need to do something with all that money they have. Wait are they trying to get more money, hmmm Greed dwells deep inside that religion

LOL idiotic nonsense. but, keep trying. we can all use a laugh once in awhile.

Very beautiful.

You didn't go to BYU. Beta boy didn't you ever learn envy is a sin?

@briddle1978 Yiu shoujd be ashamed of yourself statung a fajse vuew of federal law. The kaw does not supercede local uihding requirements. Besides theormon claim that a high spire is integral to their religion. It is not since there are several temples without a spire. Even a oriphet has declared that archetectual asiects are not integral to their religion.

One thing we can never do in the church is replace truth with love, why? Truths are eternal they won't go away just because we don't like them. For example LGBT two men or two women cannot create life it's an inconvenient truth. So we have to teach truth as it's being kind , if a gay person is ok with not having children in the eternities as same sex attraction is more important, then no problems go ahead live that life and be happy. The church is trying to get us into the Celestial Kingdom to be Gods and therefore rejoice in our posterity. If we cannot create life through a choice we made, is there any point going there? Whether there's a devil or not, there is definitely evil in the world. The question is do you want to be part of it? If so how much? Telling a lie or murdering children? Both happen unfortunately. Your right there is more than one way of living it's why there's more kingdoms than 2 we are happy with people who think like us, I was happy in the world for 36 years but like the prodigal son it wears off quickly and no promise of anything worth while after death. There's a saying love is the answer and if we had more of it in this world then less wars, and becoming a Zion people means we are of one heart and mind dwell in righteousness and have no poor among us. I don't think this world that justifys exploitation, greed and wars will ever get close to that as the natural man is carnal, sensual and devilish and unless a change is made in each individual then it will never get any better than what it currently is. I believe that there are men and women who will achieve a level of love and righteousness that will bring the joy and happiness the world craves but change is inevitable! But good luck with your journey it will become apparent whether it's for you or not the devil makes everything exciting in the beginning but long term fades into misery. For example people who take drugs for awhile they have fun, but look at someone who's be taking drugs for 30-40 years it's not fun anymore they are generally homeless as every penny earn goose on a addiction that they wish they could ditch. It's the flaxen cord talked about that eventually binds you. Well if it don't work out, remember doors are always open, only pride will stop people returning no one else!

It’s funny people are ok with sleeping with 20 / 40 people and leaving the mess and kids behind, but it’s not ok to do it in God’s temples we’re thell love and honor each other promise to god virtue , raise honest kids that know the laws of god , and do it for time and eternity,this story holds no water

You said Joseph Smith never had an original idea in his life. Really? I challenge you to discuss Smith’s interpretation of the gospel of Christ as presented in the Book of Mormon. I know you will not do that. You are only focused on the side point of historicity, like so many other superficial critics.

Bought the book Lars Nelson wrote. Love it and very enlightening. Serious truths...

No one was around in genesis ether, the angles told him what to write,

There are no liberal Mormons. They are apostates that have not left. They are hypocrites. Just like the pharasies in Jesus's day. Apostates leave the church but won't leave the church alone because they are lead by the devil just like a 2000 lb bull can be lead around by a kite string attached to their nose ring.

It’s going to be tough to admit that our pioneer ancestors were adulterously living together! In mass fornications. Bastardizing children.
