    What Mormons Believe--according to a Former BYU Professor

    Nope...not true. It takes man to interpret Gods word since it doesn't interpret itself. Every man, woman, denomination etc. looks to their own interpretation of Scripture and believes they have authoritarily and properly interpreted scripture. They either believe their church or they...

    What Mormons Believe--according to a Former BYU Professor

    Ummmm......I didn't think I was bearing false witness. Do you accept someone else's authority? To the best of my knowledge you never said you belong to a church soooo you must accept your own authority in the interpretation of Gods word. Or am I wrong? You do belong to a church and accept...

    What Mormons Believe--according to a Former BYU Professor

    Amen sister.....the rub is that we disagree on what He said AND who has the authority to properly discern what He meant when he said it. I accept a different authority than you. I accept the Church, which is the pillar and foundation of truth, as that authority. You accept you! Peace, Mary

    What Mormons Believe--according to a Former BYU Professor

    I am not taking it personal. I am just trying to adhere to Scripture: 1 Peter 3:15

    What Mormons Believe--according to a Former BYU Professor

    LOL...aspen you do keep me in stitches. I know YOU and most on this forum only accept their own personal authority and chide those that accept the authority of a church (denomination) on what the truth is HOWEVER Scripture makes it clear that we, on our own, are not the final authority when it...

    What Mormons Believe--according to a Former BYU Professor

    Soooo if we have to believe EVERTHING then there is no such thing as "basic doctrine"....It is all just DOCTRINE and we have to believe (practice) ALL of it or we are not truly following in His footsteps and adhering to Scripture. I see you dodged the other questions...:(

    What Mormons Believe--according to a Former BYU Professor

    Hey...we agree on something :rolleyes: I came that conclusion by believing the Church spoken of in Scripture. How did you come to that conclusion? Who decides what "basic doctrine" is? Don't we have to believe EVERTHING Jesus taught? Basic or not?

    What Mormons Believe--according to a Former BYU Professor

    Thank you. If the CC is not The Church spoken of in Scripture then which Church is? Since i believe the CC is the Church spoken of in Scripture then that means the Mormon church and your church is not sooooo in effect we are debating Mormonism "truth" and your "truth". :) But I get the gist...

    What Mormons Believe--according to a Former BYU Professor

    Thank you. In point #1 you say that not any one denomination has the total truth. How can you know that unless YOU know what the truth is? Does that not make YOU the arbiter of truth? What is the criteria for a "legitimate denomination"? Who decides which ones are legitimate? In John 16:13...

    What Mormons Believe--according to a Former BYU Professor

    Thank you. You have me confused. Since, by your own admittance, the Spirit does not guide ONLY you into the Truth then how do we know what the Truth is when your truth is different then someone else's? How can you say "That’s the CC’s interpretation of that verse" and then you give a...

    What Mormons Believe--according to a Former BYU Professor

    Thank you. I did have a nice Christmas. Time with the kids, good food, good presents and a 4 day vacation, which included the Sight and Sound theater, after Christmas. How was yours? YOU SAID that the Holy Spirit guides YOU into the truth. Since YOUR truth is different then the...

    What Mormons Believe--according to a Former BYU Professor

    Thank you Prayer Warrior. Are you saying that the Holy Spirit doesn't guide the men of the Catholic Church or Martin Luther or Calvin or any of your fellow Christians on this forum? Curious Mary

    Thank you....Happy new year to you. :) How was your Christmas? Did you get some nice gifts? I am glad I had the opportunity to show you that, according to Scripture, Christianity has a lot to do with politics. Bible study Mary

    Fascinating.....Do you have a book or a website I can go to so I can read from YOU what the Holy Spirit has revealed to you as to what the truth is? Thank you in advance....Mary

    What Mormons Believe--according to a Former BYU Professor

    Thank you Enoch. I love bible study. Did you know that Jesus was speaking to his Apostles when he said that? That passage is NOT meant for all Christians. If it were meant for all Christians then all Christians can rightfully say (under a false belief) they personally have been guided by...
