I am a former Muslim, saved years now. I teach Churches how to reach Muslims. So many of the same things about reaching Muslims that I have been teaching for years, I just heard this former Mormon brother teach them too, but for reaching Mormans! These principles must be universal to reaching all people groups!
I urge you to be cautious with Adam's Road. They teach half truths and out right inaccuracies but they say they are essentially experts. Much of what they say is with a certain spin or even slander. Just be careful putting too much emphasis on their messages.
@@rugby4lifenone615 I appreciate this warning. Can you fill me in on more please? Who is Adam's Road, is that the name of their ministry? And what teachings? Can you share? Thanks a lot.
@@HectorPriamedes1 So I'm not actually mormon but have done research about them. Adam's Road is the organization started by Micah in this video. They say if someone sins, repentance is difficult to receive because all former sins return to you as well. Not true. They say only mormons are allowed to attend BYU. Not true. I know people personally who are not mormons who went to BYU for their business program. Micah shared things about his interactions with his mission president from his mission that are very suspect. I have a hard time believing Micah.
@@rugby4lifenone615 Thanks for sharing. I'm more interested in what you've found on Adam's Road and their doctrines. So Adam's Road ministry has a teaching / doctrine that if a born again believer sins, all their past sins return to them. Is that correct? Also, anything else about their doctrines? Please share as I know Christians who are passing this video around and perhaps we should be aware of what Adam's Road teaches.
@@HectorPriamedes1 We are past the day of bickering and in-fighting amongst anyone who is a believer of Jesus Christ. Adam's Road has opinions and they are entitled to them. My concern is how much time and energy they devote to tearing down and dismantling. One may agree with Adam's Road's position and they have that right. For me, when I know there are half truths or lies introduced when trying to tear down or dismantle, that is concerning. As you watch Adam's Road, ask yourself "Does this build my happiness? Does this built my light?" Let that be your guide if you pursue Adam's Road or any other institution.
Needed this. Tried to be faithful in my witness to 2 Mormons tonight who came to my house and feel I blundered it. Asking for prayer to keep going and trust the Lord to work in their lives.
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is God's and Jesus Christ one and only true church here on earth. We know and teach the Bible and gospel better than any other denomination. Join God and Jesus Christ in their Kingdom and join their true church, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, and learn all that they have to offer. Learn of their glory and mercy, learn of the plan they have of you.
On-going conversation on FB with one. It's hard!
That is because the two Latter-day Saint missionaries who came to your house have the companionship of the Holy Ghost (besides their Authority and knowledge of the Gospel). I hope you humbly go through the missionary lessons, pray about it, read the Book of Mormon, which is the Stick of Joseph. Read Ezekiel 37 in the Old Testament. The Bible is not the only book of Scripture. It has a Companion. It is the Book of Mormon. Ezekiel says to put both of them in our hand and they shall be as one.
@@dylanwilliams2202 You are completely correct. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the Lord’s one, true Church on the earth. All others are man-made, and have no Authority. Jesus Christ has appeared to some of the Latter-day prophets, such as President Lorenzo Snow in the Salt Lake Temple in 1898.
@dylanwilliams2202 hey. I agree with your viewpoint. But. That form of dialect is what pushes people away from our church. You have to direct the conversation from a humble viewpoint and not a direct stance.
This is so good!! Micah shared in another video that the Pastor who shared the gospel with him didn’t think he did enough. But, God did!
In his book, Micah shared that the reason he left was because he ran away from his mission to be with his girlfriend and when his Mission President refused to not let him back in without some kind of punishment he completely left the Church. Now, he goes on about how some pastor shared the gospel to him. Kinda deceitful to be honest
@@dylanwilliams2202 “lying for the Lord”
You know you are not telling the truth. You hope some may believe you and share your Mormon belief that the truth is not always helpful as per Elder Packer & Elder Oaks?
@@ginamiller6754 _"You know you are not telling the truth"_ I am 100% telling the truth. Do you want me to tell you the exact page number?
_"You hope some may believe you and share your Mormon belief that the truth is not always helpful as per Elder Packer & Elder Oaks?"_ LOL The truth is with us in every way. You are completely misquoting and taking out of context both quotes. Why is it you Christians can never quote anything right? You all constantly misquote the Bible and twist what is said and you misquote what was said by our leaders and twist what is said.
@@dylanwilliams2202 For sure. If you watch enough videos you start to pick up on inconsistencies and inaccuracies. Like Matt saying you have to be a good standing mormon to go to BYU. Not true. I had a good friend who was not mormon go to BYU for their business program. Matt also said Adam's Road's foundation is to be anti-mormon. It seems like we're witnessing the personal vendetta of the Wilder family on the mormon church more than anything.
@@rugby4lifenone615 1 thing you need to realize is that the Mormon religion is false and not from God. Stop trying to make the Wilders out to be “haters” and see the real truth that Mormonism is false. I’m so sick and tired of people crying and saying that these Ex-Mormons are just being hateful and see the reasons behind why people actually leave that religion. The LDS religion is what’s evil hateful
Amen to all of this. In college, I was trying to convert my friend to Mormonism, and he was trying to convert me to Christianity. The ONLY WAY I was willing to consider his views is because he also considered mine. Now, I’m not sure he -actually- considered Mormonism as possible truth (maybe?), but every other week we went to each other’s churches, prayed that God would reveal the truth, and then studied the Bible together using the topical guide. He would bring up something he didn’t understand (agree with theologically), such as the practice of baptism for the dead, man’s potential to become like God, and 7 levels of heaven (just to name a few). We would then go to MY bible, look up the references, and go study it in context (I wasn’t used to contextual studies). Time after time, I discovered on every single issue that the Mormons’ reference didn’t make sense or that the scripture was taken way out of context. For instance, Baptism for the dead - I remember my dad just quoting a single verse from 1 Corinthians over and over when I asked him where it came from. And he wasn’t willing to go deeper into the Bible to get a bigger picture or see what Paul may have meant - he just kept quoting in King James English, “Else what shall they do which gave baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not at all?” But when you look even a tiny bit into it, Paul was rebuking the Corinthians who didn’t believe in a resurrection, and apparently, these confused Corinthians were baptizing on behalf of the dead. But nowhere else in scripture - by ANYONE - is this practice talked about, mentioned, taught, nothing.
Anyway, in the end, I had to admit that the references didn’t support the theology, And then I finally realized that the entire New Testament teaches that we are saved NOT by our works, but by grace alone (and yes, our deeds and obedience are a beautiful evidence of our faith, but it’s not the other way around). This, I couldn’t reconcile. Jesus has offered us a gift and we cannot earn it. We don’t have to “do all we can do to live with Him some day.” I was heart-broken to realize my religion was false. I was the best Mormon there was and believed it fully. And then, once the church “not being true” was an option for me, I started to realized how truly cult-like the religion is. I was sent to the dean’s office at BYU for asking too many questions and left in utter tears. I was sent to the bishop, and also to the stake president - to be fair, they did try to answer my questions, but honestly there was never an answer that satisfied the questions. Everyone really freaked out and got upset that I was looking at “anti-Mormon literature” and my dad even told me through tears that I was following the leading of the Devil. It was the worst feeling - know he was wrong, and that I was only following the Truth, and he wouldn’t understand, and I was breaking his heart. Ugh. My family are all either Mormon still or atheist. I have no idea how to encourage them to read the New Testament with new eyes - they won’t’ listen to a black sheep like me. But I keep praying for opportunities and for the Holy Spirit to guide me in conversation if/when they ever happen.
Thank you, Micah! I actually did a Bible Study in Windermere with Alicia. Best of luck with your new venture doing camp!
I urge you to be cautious in watching these videos from Micah and Adam's Road. They are not meant to build faith but are just essentially anti-mormon. Nothing more, nothing less.
@@rugby4lifenone615 Jesus Christ said that he would divide people and families. The truth naturally divides people. To be worthy of Jesus and eternal life, one must side with God's truth even if it divides his own family. Matthew 10:34-37; Luke 12:51-53;
Two young ladies (and probably someone more senior) are coming over in a couple of hours for a chat. Thanks for this video- a good word!
Thank you for this. I have made ALL the mistakes as I am growing. This has been heavy on my heart to be a light for mormons as an ex-mo and I REALLY want to love and help free them. It's quite a humbling curve as the mormon spirit can be so condescending. I appreciate these tips and pray to better witness with Yeshua. 💝
I needed this EXACTLY today. Thank you Heavenly Father!❤
Micah's testimony video has really helped my approach with Mormon missionaries
Thanks for this video. Very helpful!!
Micah is radical today like Paul may God be good to you and use your more in His kingdom and thank God for calling you in time such as these for His glory to shine the whole world
I caution you to understand more deeply what Micah and Matt are teaching. I've seen a number of times where they have lied in their videos. There are also a number of inaccuracies or half truths in their videos.
So good! I have a business acquaintance that's Mormon and I notice in me the tendency to want to win an argument rather than show compassion towards him.
I thank God the Holy Spirit though for the wisdom He's already given me to not be argumentative and to continue to appreciate about him the things that are true about him regardless, like his sense of humor. Thanks for the good points given here.
this is beautiful! thank you for this! glory to God!
Good stuff....I just got done speaking with a young man (Mormon Missionary)...wonderful non confrontational conversation. Seemed like a fine young man. I shared the gospel with him and he gave me the book of Mormon. I'm very solid in my faith....I invited him to the church I attend.
I saw this man Micah giving his testimony. During the video I saw a vision of steps going up his arm toward his head. I decided to find out who he was thinking he might need to know what I saw. It turns out I needed to hear THIS! Steps to enangelize!!!
Oh my are you charismatic?
Just curious

This is fascinating. I have had two Mormon missionaries visit me twice now. The first time they gave me a copy of The Book of Mormon because I asked for one. I also gave them my hardcover copy of "Is Atheism Dead" by Eric Metaxas. It was a pleasant exchange and very cordial. The second time they came they asked me if I had started reading The Book of Mormon yet and I told them that I had. I read about many other religions because I want to know what they believe so I can be an effective witness when sharing the Gospel. I'm expecting them to come back. This time I'll need to get a little deeper with them. We are keeping friendly but we are also talking past each other. They know that I've been born-again for a long time and they can tell that I know my Bible. Things are going to come to a head sooner or later but I'm letting God and the Holy Spirit guide these conversations. I'm also praying for them.
No amount of truth given to a mormon will change a thing. They are completely spiritually dead and blind. It would be the same as going and speaking to an oak tree and telling it, it needs to become a pine tree. Nothing is going to happen. It is going to remain an oak tree as this is the trees destiny. The same applies to all those snared into all the Godless worlds false manmade religions. They are all there because this is where they were made (predestined) to be.
@@forthosewitheyestosee8183 Even though God did predestined who will come to accept Jesus Christ, and there will be many who may NEVER accept God's gift no matter how many times God attempts to reach them, The Lord, knowing this, STILL sent his only begotten son to die for their sins because he STILL LOVES THEM. Therefore, regardless if we think this person may never put his faith in Christ, we still share the good news to them to reflect the same love God has for us.
@@martindejesusraya3820 ,...Sorry, but you have failed to understand the Bibles gospel. No one accepts Jesus. The 100% false manmade unbiblical idea of accepting Jesus does not come from the Bible, it comes from Godless mankind, and the apostate churches fake christianity.
Jesus did not come for, and did not die for, anyone other than the few who are Gods chosen ones, his elect. God does not love anyone other the few who are his chosen ones, his elect. And this is about 1% of the population.
The truth is, you have understood nothing I have explained. You are as blind, lost, and deceived as are those snared into the cult of mormonism. Again, you are where you are (completely blind, lost, and deceived) because this is where God as predestined you to be. No amount of Biblical truth given to you will change a thing as I originally stated for your edification.
Just as an oak tree cannot make itself a pine tree, neither can you being spiritually dead and blind, make yourself spiritually alive and give yourself eyes that see. You like the mormons, will reject the truth i have given you and will just go right back to your wallowing in the mire, as this is your destiny. Nevertheless, Repent!
@@forthosewitheyestosee8183 Ugh. Calvinism is antithetical to The Great Commission.
@@1family4me,...As I have explained above for your edifications, "Calvinism" is the truth, the Gospel, and the Christianity of the Bible. Anything/everything else is antichrist! You are completely steeped in darkness and deception. Repent!

Why do you feel this way?@rugby4lifenone615
@@richarner3856 The probability is higher that Micah has been mis-leading about what his mission president said and that he was "kicked off" his mission. I know a number of former mission presidents they have said they would never kick a missionary off their mission for the things he's described. They would work with them and try to help in whatever way possible but they'd never be as callous as Micah described. This is a handful of people but each of them said that reaction from Micah's mission president would be highly atypical and wrong if it's correct. I invite you to seek this part out more for your own confirmation. Matt Wilder told me personally that Adam's Road (which actually is no longer) was founded for the sole purpose of being anti-mormon. Matt also said that to go to BYU someone must be mormon. Not true. I have a good friend who went to BYU who was not mormon. They went there for the excellent and competitive business program offered. Again, please look into this further on your end. Lastly, I respect anyone's right to worship however they see best. Not everyone agrees on theology and as long as they practice in a peaceful manner that doesn't bring ill to another, I feel it's best to practice whatever belief one holds most sacred and will improve their life the best. There is no 100% declaration in the bible that mormons are going to hell. There are many interpretations, extrapolations, and inferences that people produce from various bible references, but it can't be done to determine the actual eternal state of mormons. Too many people try to judge mormons or other groups before the God of Heaven Himself has had a chance to judge. This is a very slippery slope for all those passing judgment on someone's eternal well being. Adam's Road and the Wilders express their opinion, experience and personal feelings as if they are the ultimate authority. Be careful when anyone dictates ultimate authority from a personal opinion or experience.
Micah, you are an inspiration. You sure know how to handle this topic very well. I agree that instead of criticism, evangelize with wisdom and understanding.
15 Behold, I AM JESUS CHRIST THE SON OF GOD. I created the heavens and the earth, and all things that in them are. I was with the Father from the beginning. I am in the Father, and the Father in me; and in me hath the Father glorified his name.
God bless you Micah, keep up the good work.

My doctor friend/ boss of many years is Mormon and yesterday (I have been praying for him) out of the blue comes to me and vents about his marriage and how he struggled with his faith in the Mormon church but he said he now has no doubt the Mormon church is right. I lovingly have a discussion with him and no hostility we are good friends and although it wasn’t effective maybe God will give me another opportunity later on but I’m praying for him ❤ I know that was God giving me a chance
Sometimes when they are doubting, they double down on their “testimony”.
Keep praying for him 🙏🏻
Jessa keep in mind too that often times our best witness is to not even witness, and just let him see how you interact with people and how you live. He WILL see a light in you that he doesn't see in others because there IS one in you!

You go Micah.
I've spoken to missionaries here in U.K and tried to share the word with then and my testimony and they just smile nod and agree as if we all believe the same thing.
Don’t worry. You share the gospel and then release that person and believe in the finished work of the cross to be enough to do the rest ❤❤❤

Thank you for this segment!!

Just another anti-mormon organization. Simple as that
I guess those interested in discrediting the Mormon church will find these videos helpful. Adam's Road does this as their primary pursuit. I don't sense much power in their videos.

Thanks for sharing this, recently I had to mormons knock on my door and they didn't come out and say they were mormon, in fact, they just told me they had a church named the church of Christ and avoided mentioning of latter day saints, it was only when they left that I knew.
So after this I realized that I don't know much about LDS and wanted to read more on them I only know what I have heard from others and it was not good so I read up on the history of Joseph as I started reading I was in the "I'm gonna prove them wrong!" and in that "battle" mode I guess. But the more I read, the more I felt sorry for them.. their god is powerless it cant save, he is a liar that contradicts himself at every turn and jesus is not who he says he is in the bible (according to what Joseph taught) they need the REAL gospel, the REAL God who can save, the REAL Jesus that died for our sins and this needs to be delivered with love for they have been very wronged by their church leaders. Hopefully if they ever comeback I can lovingly give them the true gospel of salvation.
I always stick to the word of God Mormons find the word of God offensive because it contradicts their religion then they fall back on the excuse that it's not translated correctly hence they don't realize they're calling God a liar
Remind them that there are over 20,000 ancient manuscripts that match today's Bible word for word. This is a fact.
( wanna guess how many there are for the book of mormon?? Not a single one. In fact the book of Mormon continues to change all of the time and its not even an ancient book)

@@rugby4lifenone615 what are you saying
@@user-sl6hk8wc5j I've been researching the LDS church for a while now. Micah and the gang claim to be experts. They're not. They add spin to so much of what they say. Just be weary of their messages.
@@paulsutton5951the Septuagint matches word for word????
As an LDS member, I agree that respecting each other, is the best way to discuss religion. Contention is never an ok means to feel the spirit. At least you are approaching your evangelization from a good perspective. Arguing never converts anybody to anything. People just dig in.
No spiritually alive person can CONvert, nor CONvince a spiritually dead person of anything. The few actual Christians that exist simply state the truth of Gods word straight out. There is no concern whatsoever about offending. All the truths of the Bible are an offence to the spiritually dead and blind (mormons).
That only goes so far. Jude told us to earnestly contend for the faith that was once for all delivered to the saints. Christians are to fight to preserve sound doctrine, and sadly that often does involve argument. As for your mormonism, I can tell you I was born and raised in the mormon cult, just outside of SLC. If you remember nothing else I say, remember that the difference between mormonism and Christianity is the difference between polytheism and monotheism. Mormons might be many things, and many of those things might even be good things. But the one thing a mormon is not is a Christian. If you believe in more than one god, and you believe you can become a god, you are not Christian, nor do you worship the Christ of scripture. The God of the Bible is the only one in the universe, and He leaves no doubt and no room for any other. Read Isaiah 44 through 46 just as an example. I pray you leave the cult and embrace the God of the Bible.
@@mcsegeek1 First of all, thank you for sharnig your insigts.. Personally I do have some issues with some of the things you said, mainly for the reason that the academic understanding of how certain things were meant by the original authors of the Bible, are not really what many of us make out of it these days..
For example when God stated that "There is no other God besides him", we get the same author state the excact same thing about "cities", that were also to be considered for there being "no other citeis like Babylon" and so forth. And the point was not to say that there were no other ciies, but that these cities were of no relevance to the inhabitants of them.
And that also may be indicated by the God of Israle loosing in combat against another deity around the city of Moab.
Not just that, but also when God states that "there were no other Gods formed before me", he obviously refers to "formed" Gods, which was also the audience he was addressing, meaning, that was the context of that passage.
Also when we look at the first couple verse of Genesis, where it states "in the beginning", it is academic consensus that the way it is rethorical and grammatically used in that place, it is also used in other places to refer to "the beginning out of something", but certainly not to the beginning out of nothing, which is also indicatged by the following verse that states that "the earth was waste and desolate", meaning, it was there when God began, but it was in chaos and unshaped..
The only way I see how someone can be considered being "non-christian" from the perspective of an evangelist is
1. When the Bible itself makes clear that the Bible is inerrrant, univocal and inspired word of God in every sylliable
2. When it can be made certain that your particular interpretation of the inherent Bible is also correct
3. When within those that follow your doctrine is brought forth the "good fruit", by which we are to discern truth from deceotnion
Now, there is much I could say about all of these things, but in short
1. Jesus himself teaches different and contradictive versions of hell, to name just one example, so how can anyone be certain to follow the true Jesus if even the Bible is not consistent and univocal?
2. If the Bible is not inherent, it explains why so many evangelicals still disagree on so many things. So, how can anyone be certain to follow that one perfect doctrine and undertanding of Jesus that leads to salvation? What makes the difference if the worwd itself is not clear on everything vital? Prayer? The Holy Ghost? But what if Mormons make that same experience within their own canon?
3. Paul made clear that even knowing all dcotrine, having faith to move moutnains, working mighty miracles, and even sacrificing your life for God, are all not fit to be the "good fruits", for without charity, they are all worth nothing, but Jesus made clear that once we taste of the good fruit, we will know with certainity that the tree (source of the information) is also good..
.... and since everything can be faked, manipulated or pretendet, whether that be our understanding of scripture, the words of prophets, and even visions and dreams, our inuiion, emotion, experience and moral judgement, and yes, even the charity, the good fruits can only refer to the amount of charity that is brought forth wihin ourselves..
In other words, and of course that is just my interpretation, everything that inspires to bring forth parience, love, kindness, wisdom, long-suffering, the desire for truth, sellessness, forguveness, and so forth, is of God..
And when we look at the good Samaritian, we see that he was just kind of like a Mormon. The Jews despised them, considered them Pagans, serving a false God and erring in doctrine, and yet Jesus still considere thath Samaritian "good", because by showing mercy and charity, he did the wiill of the father, even if he may not have been aware of it.
So, I apologize for the many words ,but I think Jesus does not care about who is Christian and who is not, or who says Lord Lord and who knows and does all things perfectly right, but he cares about those that bring forth the good fruits, whether that be Evanghelicals, Mormons or Atheiists...

There are a difference between the goats and the Sheep….. if you don’t have the correct Jesus and Worship Jesus say there is another God he becames a idol. The Father said all the angels will worship the Son. Now if Jesus is not the one and only true God we have a Problem because Jesus said to Worship God alone and only God is Good. Two problems Jesus is worshipped and Jesus was Perfect. Is Jesus a lier? God said he know no other God? Is Hid a lier? Jesus said called himself the Almighty and the first and the last, the Alpha and Omega Revelations 1:8.
Tell them your strong personal testimony of how you came to Christ, recieved him and became His disciple. No debate necessary.

As an atheist, can I suggest one more item: "Devote 10x the effort towards ensuring the gospel message is actually true in your own mind that you do in spreading the gospel."
If anyone knew that the Bible was true, then they would not need any faith. Christianity is all about faith, not about proof and knowing for sure. All religions are 100% based on faith, including your religion of atheism.
@@forthosewitheyestosee8183Atheism is not a religion. There is no positing of an assertion required for atheism.
@@nonprogrediestregredi1711 ,....Atheism absolutely is a religion, it is a belief system same as all religions. Atheisms dogma is, everything must be explained completely outside of the Bible. Anything can be believed no matter how fake and false it is, just as long as it does not support the truth of the Bible.
You are completely deceived. Everything within your false manmade religion of atheism/scientism is false manmade nonsense that has no basis in truth nor reality. It is all just science fiction.
The Bible is the only truth the world has, and this is why it is so hated and rejected. Humans do not want truth, they only want, and love lies and deception and that is just what they have with their manmade religion of atheism/scientism.
@@forthosewitheyestosee8183 I'm a Christian and I respectfully disagree here. We can have a high degree of certainty on the historicity of the Bible and the historical person of Jesus, more than very many other historical figures and writings. Example, the earliest biography of Alexander the Great was 300 years after his death, for Buddha it is approximately 600 years post his death. For Jesus, the 4 Gospels range between 30-70 years post his death and closer in time to us than the former.
Faith only comes into play when accepting or denying the metaphysical claims within the Bible such as the Resurrection and what Jesus said about himself being God.
Respectfully, you need to learn when to apply faith because faith isn't needed when discussing the reliability and historicity of the Bible, or you have to throw out every other historical figure prior to the invention of the photographic camera.

@Elizabeth-rk3do we have a yearly study guide. Last year was old testament and this year was new testament and next year is book of Morm. We do a weekly study and dicuss at church. If 16 million people just studied the new testament all year, we are almost done with revelations. If we all studied it, but still believe the same thing. We all believe in the same thing . I've tried so many different ways to not believe in this church. But everytime I challenge it. And throw genuine prayer into the mix.

Church members love their church, and the fullness of the restored gospel! In the Church of Jesus Christ of latter day saints, evangelicals have a very bad reputation in our church, because you're church has always taught hate against our faith ❗ Not once have l ever had a class in my church that taught against another church❗ We're tired of people disrespecting our beliefs and discounting our spiritual experiences we have through the spirit of God ❤️. We don't pay our leadership,we don't pay people to preach the word of God! This is why evangelicals don't like us, if everyone in your church left and came to our church they would all be out of work! So I believe this is the biggest reason why you're culture in your church does this. There is so many beautiful beliefs we have from God that other people churches don't have, and Satan doesn't want people to have eternal marriage that bind families together!

Can you do another version of this video that is more "generic"? "How should a Christian evangelize?"
I think many people can benefit from learning from other religions. But God is the one who opens hearts ultimately. Many evangelicals do not even know what members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints believe. There are also three levels of conversation had with this discussion that evangelicals miss. We appreciate the work that evangelicals do in helping people to find faith in God and Jesus and to read the Bible. But we’re way past that discussion into one of a higher nature, and that is how do we become as Zachariah puts it in the Bible “Saviors on Mount Zion”. There are some in the LDS culture who have never developed faith in Jesus. We are grateful that God provides Evangelicals to talk to them to reach them that way. We members of the Church who KNOW and don’t just believe that God is real and Jesus is the Christ and that They appeared to Joseph Smith the same way the appeared to Stephen in Acts 7:55-56 would not convert to evangelical thought. We’re past the level 2 conversation that Evangelical christianity brings up:
Level 1 - Is there a God
Level 2 - Is Jesus the Christ
Level 3 - How does God still interact in the world today to save mankind?
The fact is, when it comes to being blind, lost, and deceived the mormons are on level 1 billion. Mormonism is the absolute pinnacle of deception. Repent!
I appreciate your comment, and yet I don't think many LDS missionaries have put a lot of thought into the fundamental aspects of their religion, much the same as Christians.
I'm currently in conversation with two LDS lads who visit me every few weeks.
I have demonstrated to them (using the Dead Sea Scrolls) that the OT has NOT lost "many precious portions" as Nephi prophecised. And they havent explained to me why the LDS Church accepts Luther's Bible book list as canonical despite the 'Church' being in a state of "total Apostasy".
I'm Catholic so I can bring up 2 Maccabees 7:28 and show ex-nihilo ceeation of the universe by God. My two LDS acquaintances not only don't have a rebuttal but also dont seem to realise that I just knocked out the foundation of their entire religion.
@@alisterrebelo9013 ,...In another comment you made in this comment section you claimed you were a Christian. Being a catholic in not being a Christian. Being a catholic is the same as being a mormon. Both these two 100% false manmade ungodly cults are the opposite of being Christian.
Catholics are every bit as blind, lost, deceived, Biblically illiterate, willingly ignorant, antigod, antibible, and antichrist as are the mormons. A catholic and a mormon discussing the Bible is nothing more than satan casting out satan.
No amount of Biblical truth given to a mormon or a catholic will mean nor change a thing. Both are completely spiritually dead and blind.
Please read the book of Jude, it is speaking directly to both the catholics and the mormons.
@@alisterrebelo9013 missionaries are basically teenagers still. Their goal is to bring people to Jesus Christ using the restored gospel. The details aren’t something you will find answers for those questions. If you want answers to those questions, consider FAIR or Jacob Hansen or Blake Ostler or Don Bradley. They can answer those deep questions with scholarship and accuracy.
That said, I’ll give you my answer to that and you can pray or consider it. The Bible (Old Testament in this case) was ruined well before the time of Christ. Josiah (while seen as good) began the birth of Rabbinical Judaism and their interpretation of the Torah. Their unearthing of the record in Josiah’s day was what I believe happened to what we know of the Bible (Old and New Testament) today. The earliest proof of the New Testament is 400 AD. If you read the Book of Mormon 1 Nephi 11-30, it explains what happened as well. But basically, both the Jews of Josiah’s day who had lost the priesthood (the candlesticks or authority of Aaronic priesthood spoken of in Zechariah) took what was there and the scribes changed or maybe even tried to translate things the best they could. But it was in the earth and likely had parts missing they filled in etc. There are parts of Isaiah in the bible that the Book of Mormon corrects that isn’t found in the dead sea scrolls, but is a more correct translation when you get into studying Hebrew. It is way more advanced than I can describe on a youtube comment, but FAIR has done apologist arguments on this if you are interested in looking them up.
So the Romans also did the same thing as in Josiah’s day. The church had lost the authority (see Ephesians 2 & 4, Acts 1, Mark 3, and a few other chapters I can give you) that highlight that apostleship is called by the “laying on of hands” and is part of the priesthood. Once they were killed in 70 AD as Revelation 2 prophesied, the “woman” or the Church “fled into the wilderness” or in other words, was taken from the Earth, just as it was in Josiah’s day. The scriptures were changed by the Romans just as they were in Josiah’s day as well. God has been actively trying to restore truth and His word to the Earth since this time, but wills to only act according to men’s faith. Thus, the Bible and all the flaws within, will at some day be corrected, likely when Christ returns. We claim to be Christ’s restored Church, but we do not have a fullness entirely yet. For it must be unfolded according to the faith of men in Christ.
I hope you will read the Book of Mormon prayerfully. God will guide your study if you are open to truth and doing all God asks of you 💟🙏
@@alisterrebelo9013 also, I think many traditional Christians are more devout in some ways than some latter-day Saint Christians.

@nute742 I Nephi 1, 600 BC, has a prophecy concerning the destruction of Jerusalem. According to the Bible, the first deportation from Jerusalem occurred nine years prior in 609 BC. There would be no need to prophesy the destruction of Jerusalem. It was well under way.
Then, there is the language of Reformed Egyptian. This language doesn't exist. Egyptians speak Arabic. Jews speak Hebrew. No Jewish person living in Jerusalem in 600 BC would be speaking or recording their history in a fictional language or the language of a nation that held them in captivity hundreds of years earlier.

_"Its true many mormons don't read the bible (or bom) for that matter enough."_ That is completely false. We on average know the Bible better than every other denomination.

3 Nephi 11:13 And it came to pass that the Lord spake unto them saying:

28 And according as I have commanded you thus shall ye baptize. And there shall be no disputations among you, as there have hitherto been; neither shall there be disputations among you concerning the points of my doctrine, as there have hitherto been.
29 For verily, verily I say unto you, he that hath the spirit of CONTENTION is not of me, but is of the devil, who is the father of contention, and he stirreth up the hearts of men to contend with anger, one with another.

@@Elizabeth-rk3do ,...Do you understand what it means to receive Christ?
@@forthosewitheyestosee8183
What does it mean?
@@Elizabeth-rk3do ,....When the Bible makes the statement, to receive Jesus/Christ, it is not referring to someone making a decision to accept Jesus. No one has a choice to accept/receive Jesus.
What this phrase is referring to is that Jesus chose to make that person Spiritually alive. They received Gods undeniable free gift of salvation by God giving it to them. They did absolutely nothing, and had absolutely nothing to do with receiving it. They cannot, not receive it. They did not make a decision, they did not accept anything, they did not admit anything, they did not repent, believe, nor did they do anything. It was given to them 100% apart from their wills or their works.
Mankind does not have freewill, and no one can choose to accept (receive) or to reject Jesus. God forces his will upon us.
All mankind comes into the world either marked by the world (the beast) (99.9%) or sealed by God for salvation (1%). It is all already done before anyone is born. God has already decided everything. We decide nothing.
The Bibles real gospel is the exact opposite of the churches 100% false manmade freewill gospel. The fact is, the Godless people of the church do not want Gods gospel, they only want and love the 100% false gospel mankind invented, the freewill gospel. The freewill gospel is the false gospel of the mormons, the catholics, the jehovah's witnesses, the SDA's, and the protestants, (and all other cults). They all have the very same 100% false manmade freewill gospel.
The only ones that stand apart and are not snared into any of the apostate churches are the few who have received (been given) salvation from God.

"seeing them as victims" is the self-righteous position. It is pity, but is not love. Jesus didn't treat people like this. He loved all people unconditionally. He didn't dismiss people as victims, but taught like only He could teach, through charity which is the pure love of Christ.
Moroni 7:47 But charity is the pure love of Christ, and it endureth forever; and whoso is found possessed of it at the last day, it shall be well with him.

Probably because we know and teach the Bible and gospel better than any other denomination and you can't use your false doctrine on us.
The first thing you should do is read the Book of Mormon and then as it suggests near the end is pray and ask if it is true!
I have read the Book of Mormon and sincerely prayed. God has told me that it is false.

@sharondoty7145 what teachings in the book of Mormon contradict the bible?
Shame on all of you and Adam's Road! Do you people not see what you're doing? You are trying so hard to remove someone's right and ability to worship in PEACE however they see fit and best. All of your judgment, scorn and mockery removes peace. Guess what, if the LDS lose their ability to worship in peace, all of you could lose that very same thing too. We should be supporting every peaceful person the ability to worship in peace and without judgment. Any true Christian would fight for another's ability to worship Jesus Christ however they personally see fit in a peaceful way. I support the LDS as much as I support Jehovah's Witness, Baptist, Catholic, Muslim, Buddhist, etc. to worship however they peacefully see best because I don't want to lose MY freedoms.

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is God's and Jesus Christ true church here on earth. We know and teach the bible better than any other denomination and there is *nothing* in the bible that contradicts us, only things people twist to try and discredit us. The gospel we teach is, Jesus Christ dying on the cross is what allows us to be forgiven of our sins and is the gateway for us to be resurrected and have eternal life. Without that, no matter what we do, we wouldn't be able to save ourselves from our sins without the atonement. We believe that we are saved by grace through faith but that faith isn't just professed belief and is also expressed in our behavior and/or works (Matthew 7:21-23, James 2:14-26, Titus 1:16, Isaiah 29:13). Or put simply, works are outward manifestations of faith in Christ. However, those works are not what save us. Jesus Christ paved the path to God with his blood when he was crucified and you have to follow the path that was laid out for us to walk in to get to God. The path we must walk to live with God again that the Bible (and Book of Mormon) has said to do is to 1st have faith in Jesus Christ (John 3:36, John 6:29), 2nd keep the commandments (Matthew 19:17, Luke 11:28, John 14:15, John 14:21, Hebrews 5:9, 1 John 5:3, Revelation 12:17) and not to purposefully sin and/or repent when you have made a sinned (Acts 3:19, Acts 17:30, 1 John 1:9), 3rd make and keep the ordinances that God has asked of us like baptism (Matthew 28:19-20, Mark 16:16, Acts 2:38, Acts 22:16, Romans 6:3-10, Titus 3:5), 4th to serve others and love (Matthew 20:28, John 13:34-35, Galatians 5:13-14, 1 Peter 4:10-11) and 5th faithfully endure to the end (Matthew 10:22, Matthew 24:13, 2 Timothy 2:12, Revelation 2:26). That path is God’s and Jesus Christ's grace and walking on the path that was paved for us by Christ is our faith. It is clearly defined but also straight and narrow and you can slip off the path. The good thing is you can always return to the path. People who unrepentantly sin do not inherit the kingdom of heaven (Matthew 19:17-20, John 5:29, Galatians 5:19-21, Ephesians 5:3-5) and knowing what is right and not doing it is sin (James 4:17). If you deny any of this then you deny the bible.
We believe in the true God and Jesus Christ of the Bible. Jesus Christ who is Lord (Romans 10:9, 1 Corinthians 8:6, Philippians 2:11) and the Son of God (Matthew 3:17, Matthew 17:5, John 10:36), who is our mediator with God (1 Timothy 2:5), who said that God the father is greater (John 14:28) and that God was his God (John 20:17), who wanted us to be one with Him and God as they are with each other (John 17:21-23). To us there is one God, the Father and one Lord, Jesus Christ. (1 Corinthians 8:6). Jesus Christ does the Father's will and His (Jesus Christ) will is subjected to the Father making him both the Son and the Father. The Father because He acts and speaks on His behalf and the son because he is the literal flesh or son of God. This is also expressed in John 17:21-23 where Jesus says he wants us to be one with Him and the Father as they are with each other. (Unless you want to say that we are going to become part of the Trinity.)
We don't believe in the pagan and unbiblical version of God and Jesus Christ made popular by the christian creeds, this 1 entity in 3 personages or this 3 entity in 1 personage thing. How can something be 3 being ins but one God but those 3 beings also separate and distinct but also the same yet not also? God is not the author of confusion (1 Corinthians 14:33) and that is confusing. There is no verse in the bible to back up that pagan belief and to explain it you have to use sources that came centuries later.
Join God and Jesus Christ in his Kingdom and join their true church, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, and learn all that they have to offer. Learn of their glory and mercy, learn of the plan they have of you. Don't learn it from someone who doesn't understand what we believe and lies about what happened on his mission.
Brother, The Truth is simple. I'm not condeming you or anything but by the way you speak I think you have a Martyr Syndrome. We Christians love you and want you to know the truth. Hundreds of people have converted from your church to Jesus not because they are led astray but because love and truth wins. I will pray for you that you open your eyes.
There's 2 verses that contradict each other. As I told you, truth is simple, God is not a God of confusion. ->
For we labor diligently to write, to persuade our children, and also. our brethren, to believe in Christ, and to be reconciled to God; for. we know that it is by grace that we are saved, after all we can do. -2 Nephi 25:23.
The Gospel teaches us that you are saved only by grace only
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast. - Ephesians 2:8-9
God Loves You
@@Esteban-R2 _"by the way you speak I think you have a Martyr Syndrome"_ .... What? In no way do I have Martyr Syndrome. Maybe look up what that means before you try and say someone has that lol.
_"We Christians love you and want you to know the truth.") Like I said, we have the truth. We have a better understanding of God and His plan that He promised us from the beginning than every other denomination.
_"Hundreds of people have converted from your church to Jesus not because they are led astray but because love and truth wins."_ No, the people who leave our church have been led away by either lies spread about us or by the philosophies of man mingled with scripture. You also say this like hundreds of people don't convert to our church from other churches.
_"I will pray for you that you open your eyes."_ My eyes have been opened which is why I am a member of God's and Jesus Christ's true church.
You are misquoting both 2 Nephi 25:23 and Ephesians 2:8-9. However I literally said we believe that we are saved by grace and our works don't save us but ok.
2 Nephi 25:23. When Joseph Smith and his scribe were writing this out they were writing things in English as they understood it in the 1830s, meaning this is meant to be understood as "despite all we can do" or after all you can do it is Jesus Christ that saves you. In the time period which we believe Nephi wrote this, the Law of Moses was still in effect and Nephi said this saying that after the Law of Moses it is Christ that is saving them (and us too).
Ephesians 2:8-9. According to the Key words bible, the works in Ephesians 2:8-9 was meaning the law of Moses. Meaning that this should be read as "Not of the law of Moses, lest any man should boast". Key words Bible 2041. More specifically "Works of the law, meaning works required or comfortable to the Mosaic moral law and required by this law". Meaning the sacrifice or prerequisite required by the moral law to gain access to forgiveness is what is being talked about in Ephesians 2:8-9. From Leviticus chapters 4-7, when you broke the Mosaic moral law you had to work or do a prerequisite by sacrificing animals to gain God’s forgiveness.
Paul rejects the idea of God’s grace having any prerequisite in Ephesians 2:8-9, saying God's grace or forgiveness has no requirements or no sacrifice you have to do to get. Then in Ephesians 2:10 "For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them." Or in a simple way, Jesus Christ saved us freely through his death and now we have to walk in the good works that God created for us so their grace may affect our lives more abundantly. Works don't save us but it does affect how much grace we are receiving. Not that God isn't offering the same amount of grace just that we aren't accepting it.
The gospel is more than just 1 or 2 cherrypicked verses. To live with God again that the Bible (and Book of Mormon) has said to do is to 1st have faith in Jesus Christ (John 3:36, John 6:29), 2nd keep the commandments (Matthew 19:17, Luke 11:28, John 14:15, John 14:21, Hebrews 5:9, 1 John 5:3, Revelation 12:17) and not to purposefully sin and/or repent when you have made a sinned (Acts 3:19, Acts 17:30, 1 John 1:9), 3rd make and keep the ordinances that God has asked of us like baptism (Matthew 28:19-20, Mark 16:16, Acts 2:38, Acts 22:16, Romans 6:3-10, Titus 3:5), 4th to serve others and love (Matthew 20:28, John 13:34-35, Galatians 5:13-14, 1 Peter 4:10-11) and 5th faithfully endure to the end (Matthew 10:22, Matthew 24:13, 2 Timothy 2:12, Revelation 2:26). The truth is simple and you don't know it, if you did then you would join God's and Jesus Christ's true church.
@@Esteban-R2 did you confess your faith? That is a work. Faith without works is dead.
It’s interesting that you bring up some scriptural passages about salvation and about belief, because those are about YHWH God and the Biblical Jesus Christ rather than believing in a different God or a different Christ. So it means sense that you then start explaining your beliefs about who God is. That is the key, you make a good point.
Now, YHWH God specifically has existed from eternity past (Psalms 90:2, Deuteronomy 4:39, etc), and never was a man. We also read in Isaiah 43:10 “No God was formed before me, nor will any come into existence after Me,” says YHWH. This means that YHWH God does not have any father god. Would you say that the LDS church affirms these doctrines about YHWH God, that He never used to be a man, that He always has existed, that He never came into being or was created, and that there were no gods or fathers prior to Him?
Also, the doctrine of the Trinity is only as confusing as trying to fit an infinite Deity into our finite minds. It is hard for us to even know ourselves completely. I wouldn’t call it confusion, though, but faith. A person made in the image of God is 3 in 1, for you are equally a body, a soul, and spirit - yet you are one person only. Similarly, we read in the Bible that the Holy Spirit is YHWH, that Jesus is YHWH, and that the Father is YHWH. We read that He is One. We read that YHWH created alone, and read that the Father created by means of the Son creating.
So we take this on faith. We don’t need to try to build a mental model that explains either how one person can simultaneously be 1 body and 1 spirit and only be 1 person altogether, nor how YHWH can simultaneously be 1 Father and 1 Son, but we just trust that it is the case because the Bible explains it so many times and teaches that Jesus Christ is eternal and has always existed - He never has not existed, like the Father.
@@ButterflyRebekah _“Now, YHWH God specifically has existed from eternity past (Psalms 90:2, Deuteronomy 4:39, etc), and never was a man. We also read in Isaiah 43:10 “No God was formed before me, nor will any come into existence after Me,” says YHWH. This means that YHWH God does not have any father god.”_
Most old testament scholars (both Jewish and Christian) agree that Isaiah 43:10 and all the other Isaiah verses are asserting the supremacy, authority, and superiority of Yahweh and a warning to not worship another God, not meaning there are literally no other Gods. When this verse and all the other ones are read in context then it is clear that Isaiah's reference to forming god is speaking of graven images of metal and/or wood. Isaiah 44:8-18 makes it abundantly clear it is talking about idolatry. When Yahweh said there aren't any "gods" before or after Him, He is referring to the Omnipotent, Omniscient, Omnipresent, Benevolent Ruler to whom man should direct their worship towards.
The old testament is filled with references of other Gods and us even becoming Gods. My favorite being Psalms 82:1 “God has taken his place in the divine council; in the midst of the gods he holds judgment” and Psalms 82:6 “I say, “You are gods, children of the Most High, all of you”. Most scholars believe that before the Babylonians invaded that the Israelites were more henotheistic and that they believed Elohim or El or Elyon (meaning God most high) and Yahweh or Jehovah being two separate beings and a father (Elohim) and son (Yahweh). Do you want to take a guess on how that worship was done? Exactly like the New Testament describes the worship of the Father through the Son. God is the same yesterday, today and forever and today Jesus Christ is our mediator with God (1 Timothy 2:5), do you think that wasn’t the case back in Old Testament times either? If you think yes then the God you believe in is a changing God, a God that is not of the bible.
_“Would you say that the LDS church affirms these doctrines about YHWH God, that He never used to be a man,”_ God is not a spirit. Before you try to misquote John 4:24, you are misquoting that in 2 ways. First, In Greek there is no equivalent for the English word “a” so the translation can be interesting. Meaning that “God is spirit” and “God is a spirit” are technically both correct translations. However, If we compare to other scriptures of similar structure then we clearly see that it wasn’t not meant to be a literal description of God being but is describing one attribute of God. For example, in 1 John 4:8 it says that “God is love.” In 1 John 1:5 it says “God is light.” Deuteronomy 4:24 and Hebrews 12:29 says that God is a consuming fire. Is God literally love? Is He literally light? Is he literally a consuming fire? No, Those are attributes of God not descriptions. Second, the context of this verse is talking about the worship of God and again, not a literal description. God is spirit in that He is holy and pure and they that worship him must worship him in holiness and purity.
Interestingly, This debate over whether God is a material being, or an incorporeal, immaterial being was a highly debated subject in the early centuries of the Church. In fact, for a time John 4:24 was used as evidence that God did have some kind of material body because the Greek word that is translated as “spirit” (Pneuma) can also mean “air” or “wind”, which is a material substance. Origen, who is known as the most important theologian of the early Greek church and who believed that God was incorporeal and immaterial, defends his views by arguing that John 4:24 isn’t meant to be interpreted literally.
Now, if God was once a mortal being it is in no way inconsistent with the fact that he now has all power and all knowledge and possesses every virtue, grace, and godly attribute that the Bible, Book of Mormon and Doctrine and Covenants have said God has. Irenaeus, a highly respected and influential early church father, stated "How, then, shall he be a God, who has not as yet been made a man? Or how can he be perfect who was but lately created? How, again, can he be immortal, who in his mortal nature did not obey his Maker? For it must be that thou, at the outset, shouldest hold the rank of a man, and then afterwards partake of the glory of God. For thou dost not make God, but God thee" (Irenaeus Against Heresies 4:523, Ante-Nicene Fathers 1:523-524) Here Irenaeus, an early church father, argues that how can we become a god, if we were not once a man. Using this same line of argument, how could God become a God, if He was not a man once? John 5:19 says The Son can’t do anything that He hasn’t seen the Father do. Would that mean that God lived as a spirit in a pre-mortal life, was born and received a body, died, and was resurrected and Jesus imitated what the father did?
Throughout the scriptures God is called Eternal or Endless, including in the Book of Mormon and Doctrine and Covenants. God is Endless and Eternal because his power, kingdom and dominion are Eternal and Endless. God has no limits to His power. He is from everlasting to everlasting because His power continues, having no end.
_”that He always has existed, that He never came into being or was created,”_ Yes. Doctrine and Covenants 93:29 “Intelligence, or the light of truth, was not created or made, neither indeed can be.” This also includes us as well.
_“and that there were no gods or fathers prior to Him?”_ As in there aren't any Omnipotent, Omniscient, Omnipresent, Benevolent “gods” or rulers to whom man should direct their worship towards then yes.
_“Also, the doctrine of the Trinity is only as confusing as trying to fit an infinite Deity into our finite minds. It is hard for us to even know ourselves completely. I wouldn’t call it confusion, though, but faith. A person made in the image of God is 3 in 1, for you are equally a body, a soul, and spirit - yet you are one person only.”_ No, our bodies without our spirits would be dead. Our spirits inhabit our bodies which gives them life, once those 2 combine then do we become a living soul. My body doesn’t have a mind or will of its own nor can it go out and be separate from my spirit without it dying. This in no way helps your pagan and unbiblical belief of the trinity. There is no verse in the bible to back up your pagan belief and to explain it you have to use sources that came centuries later.
_“Similarly, we read in the Bible that the Holy Spirit is YHWH, that Jesus is YHWH, and that the Father is YHWH.”_ Nowhere does it say that the Holy Ghost or the Father are Yahweh. Jesus Christ is Yahweh or Jehovah and the Holy One of Israel. Yahweh or Jehovah in the Old Testament refers to Himself or is referred to as I AM (Exodus 3:14-15; Isaiah 48:12), The Shepherd (Psalm 23:1), The Light (Psalm 27:1), The Rock (Psalm 18:2), Ruler of all (Isaiah 9:6), Judge of all nations (Joel 3:12), The Bridegroom (Isaiah 62:5; Hosea 2:16), God’s Word never passes away (Isaiah 40:8), The Sower (Jeremiah 31:27; Ezra 34:9), First and the Last (Isaiah 48:12).
Jesus refers to Himself as I AM (John 8:58), The Shepherd (John 10:11), The Light (John 8:12), The Rock (Matthew 7:24), Ruler of all (Matthew 28:18), Judge of all (John 5:22), The Bridegroom (Matthew 25:1), Jesus’ words never pass away (Mark 13:31), The Sower (Matthew 13:3-9), First and the Last (Revelation 1:17-18).
_“We read that He is One.”_ Jesus Christ does the Father's will and His (Jesus Christ) will is subjected to the Father making him both the Son and the Father or one. The Father because He acts and speaks on His behalf and the son because he is the literal flesh or Son of God. This is also expressed in John 17:21-23 where Jesus says he wants us to be one with Him and the Father as they are with each other. Unless you want to say that we are going to become part of the Trinity.
