I completely agree. The fact that someone does not even know if they have an opinion on something should be a huge red flag.

I will get to this post later. What I am asking is if our divine nature is the same as Gods? In your opinion? Yes or no will suffice.

When read and interpreted correctly yes they do. Inferred, but still. And beyond this, there are even more problems; even if you do believe that the trinity is just a unity, Mormons still hold to the fact that God was just a man, so.... STILL not the same God as Christianity.

Yep. Because if you don't view God the way the Scriptures view God, then what you are actually worshiping is a false god; a fake. An idol.

She claimed to me [you can read it for yourself; it's in this same thread] that she didn't know if this were true, didn't know if she believed it were true, and didn't know if she believed it were possible. Now she's claiming that, when we state it as fact, it is "completely inaccurate"

I have no qualms with the Bible. But there are major disagreements with the Book of Mormon. You are actually proving my point.

How do you know? I asked and you said you didn't know if it were true, didn't know if you believed it, and didn't know if you believed it were possible!

And this changes everything the Scriptures teach.

If we did, would it be any different than believin the Book of Mormon is God given and necessary for salvation?

YES!!! If God is just a man, it changes EVERYTHING the Scriptures teach!!

Not at all true. While I believe that Christ is central to all doctrine, it does not make the pillars of faith any less important; we can't believe correctly about Christ if we think man is the literally child of Mom and Dad gods, or that the Father [who the Son was sent by] is nothing more than...

All of them. They are ALL of utmost importance. I tried to start with one; You don't know if it's true, don't know if you personally believe it, and don't even know if you believe it's possible.

Again, this is the point I'm making; none of these verses says that we can be perfect; it has to be READ into an ASSUMED. You are starting from the presupposition that after you become a Christian you don't sin, and this is tainting your view of ever verse Trying to pit Scripture against...

These are not the issues, thought; the issues are things like ~ Men becoming gods ~ God having once been a man ~ The Book of Mormon being held in higher regard than the Bible ~ Tritheism rather than Trinitarianism ~ The fact that we are literal children of a heavenly mother and father [Like...

Then how do other Mormons know?

I did ask... you said you don't know. When I asked if you believed it personally, you said you don't know. When I asked if you thought it was even possible you said.. you don't know.

But... other Mormons have claimed that it IS in fact known.

~ Mark 10:18 ~ Ecclesiastes 7:20 ~ 1 John 2:1 ~ 1 John 1:9 ~ 1 John 1:8-10 The Scriptures many, many times claim that no one is without sin; it makes no distinction between what kinds. When we try to dig deep into the Word, it is a wonderful and often beneficial thing; but when we dig into the...

So men become gods? But again, does it work in reverse; did GOD have to become a god himself?
