Evangelism to Mormons: 1 (Introduction)

[@BradySmith-c7x]

Great teaching from Aaron. Very helpful

[@GospelCenteredHome]

I’m a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints and I believe the scripture in Moroni 10:3-5 or in James ‘If any of you lack wisdom let him ask of God’. Read and pray about the Book of Mormon and you can find out for yourself if it is true.

Wisdom would point you back to the Bible where you can find out objectively that the BoM is not true.

Thank you Aaron. I’ve seen some of your dialogue with Mormons and you practice what you preach brother. Bless you for that! This is a wonderful teaching

Around 9:00 I mentioned “Temple Square” but meant Manti Pageant

Two issues the LDS members cannot answer. 1. Why was Christ’s ministry in the Americas a failure. Meaning there is no evidence of Torah observance in the Americas. There was no cultural revelation like what occurred in the old world secondary to Christ’s ministry. This is a major issue and one the LDS church has no answer. 2. Is the atonement of Christ the full and final atonement for all peoples for all time. The LDS version of atonement is more limited, in that there have been other atonement’s by other gods in other universes. This clearly contradicts the whole tenor of Scripture and cannot be supported Biblically.

1. It "failed" in the same way it has failed in the past. We are fallen people. People today reject His chosen prophets and messengers. The Jews rejected Christ, and many of the apostles were killed. 2. That is purely speculation by some church members and past leaders. It has never been an official position of the Church.

1. What Torah observances do you see no evidence of? The Book of Mormon purports 400 years of peace and because of Christ's visit to the Americas. Seems like a cultural revolution to me! 2. We agree with this. There is no official doctrine that other Gods completed Atonements.
