Standing by your Faith?
Do you believe the following:
1) The Bible is the inspired word of God
2) Mormonism is in conflict with historic Christianity
3) It is truth that sets us free (John 8:32)
Ten important questions that need answers (please check all quotes to be sure they are correct):
1) Joseph Smith said: “..the Book of Mormon was the most correct of any book on earth, and the keystone of our religion, and a man would get nearer to God by abiding by its precepts, than by any other book.” (Introduction to Book of Mormon). What are these precepts?
2) Why do the doctrines in the Book of Mormon conflict with some of the doctrines in the D&C? (i.e. Jacob 2:23-28 and D&C 132:38-39)
3) Why would a true prophet of God claim: “I am the only man that has ever ben able to keep a whole church together since the days of Adam. A large majority of the whole have stood by me. Neither Paul, John, Peter, nor Jesus ever did it. I boast that no man ever did such a work as I.”
History of the Church, Vol.6, p.408-409).
4) Why does Mormonism still practice blood atonement and Utah still have the death penalty by firing squad? (Doctrines of Salvation, Vol.1, p.136)
5) Why are some sins not covered by the blood of Jesus? (Journal of Discourses, Vol.3, p.247;
Vol.4, p.219; Doctrines of Salvation, Vol.1, p.133-134)
6) How could God, the Creator, have been equal to His creation by being at one time a mere man? (Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, p.345-346)
7) Is it necessary to have the “passport” of Joseph Smith in order to enter the celestial kingdom of God? (Journal of Discourses, Vol.7, p.289)
8) Is it true that Heavenly Father has a father, a grandfather, etc.? (The Seer, p.132)
9) Can anyone obtain the celestial kingdom without being perfect? (Book of Mormon Student Manual, p.303)
10) How could the law of man override the law of God in regards to polygamy? (Journal of Discourses, Vol.11, p.269)
