      Yep, it's the entire methodology of both Anti's and Leftist's, being well familiar with both for some 40 years now. A little Truth used to tell Great LIES.
      Create strawmen of your enemy to then attack and claim yourself the winner.
      It's always made me laugh for how Religious Anti's whom most are in the Right use the tactics of the Evil one to break Christ's command to His followers toward other believers not with them in Mark 9, Luke 9 etc., but to also use the same tactics the Left does against the Right. Anti's don't realize in their Anti-Mormonism they are actually follow the DEVIL, because they lie, deceive, bear false witness, use a little truth to lie, falsely degrade, misrepresent, etc. Almost EVERY WORD out of an Anti's mouth is FALSE, just like near every word out of a Leftist's mouth is FALSE, especially if they are talking about the Church or the Right.
      A good example of this is how some J's but especially Muslim's will misrepresent the doctrines of the Trinity, and then claiming Christians are "Polytheistic". The Christian would say that's a false representation. Anti's do the same to us and worse.
      It's my Favorite thing ever to watch a "love video" made by Anti's, claiming they truly "love" us, while ALL through the video they are just LYING over and over again.
      Let me clue you in Anti's.... TRUE Servants of Jesus and the Father DO NOT "Bear False Witness" of their fellow men. We can "disagree", but lying you become a servant of the Devil.
      Note... We Latter-day Saints disagree with a lot of religions.... but note how we don't ever LIE about them in order to degrade or debunk them. Of course, we also try to avoid "degrading", but it can happen, being human and getting angry sometimes. But we try to focus ONLY on the Facts and Truth, honesty before our fellow men, and before God.
      Anti's throw this out the window and just accept their "brainwashing anti-cult ministries" as showing them the truth, just like Leftists believe their cult leaders over getting at the actual truth and being fair and understanding of others.

    Durban says, “Mormons are some of the nicest, sweetest, and most amazing people you will ever meet. And if I had a choice to live somewhere…one of the places I’d choose to live would be right outside Salt Lake City because they build some of the most amazing communities and families and all the rest”. Here Durban is describing the fruits of Mormonism. He says one fruit is “nice people”, another fruit is “sweet people” another fruit is “amazing people”. Still other fruits are that Mormons build “amazing communities”, “amazing families”, and “all the rest” they are doing is amazing. In Matthew 7:16-19, Christ says:
    16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
    17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
    18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
    19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
    Do men pick grapes from thorn bushes or build “amazing communities” while going to hell? Do men harvest figs from thistle patches or raise “amazing families” as the march into the fiery pit? If Mormonism is a corrupt tree it cannot bring forth good fruit. The very words of Christ belie Durban’s sermon.

    The first reference of a "burning" that aligns with the "burning in the bosom" actually comes from Luke 24: 32 as the Apostles contemplated how they felt after discovering they were walking with Christ: "Did our hearts not burn within us, while he talked with us by the way, and while he opened to us the scriptures?"
    If this is adequate for the Apostles to recognize a confirmation of truth, why is it not proof we should accept in our pursuit of truth, now?

    • @Akiyoshimochizuki
      @Akiyoshimochizuki 9 місяців тому +5

      God commands all His people to preach the good word, whether they're a Prophet or not. If people have the opportunity to accept the gospel in the next life because they were denied the chance to hear it from someone who failed to share it in in this life, that person who disobeyed God's commands is under condemnation. There are so many blessings that can come in this life that we should share with others. We are our brother's keeper, after all.
      As to "making it worse if they deny it later," you have to come to a perfect knowledge of the truth and then and only then will you be condemned to outer darkness. This is something that is impossible for the layperson, because they haven't seen Christ in the flesh. At worst, if you are unfaithful to the covenants you made but still live a good life you are still going to the second highest degree of glory, and if you were a horrible person you will go to the third degree of glory (described as more beautiful than this life) after having to suffer as Christ suffered, having not accepted his sacrifice.
      Not to mention the condemnation you put yourself under if you accept that the church is true but say "I'll eat drink and be merry, for tomorrow I'll die, and it shall be well with me." In this case you will still have to suffer even as Christ did, which suffering did cause Himself, even God, the greatest of all, to tremble because of pain, and to bleed from every pore unless you repent.
      The chance in the next life is a lot easier when you've already been living a good life.

    Claiming we should trust the Bible above everything has a serious problem. Everyone, including Mormons, sincerely believe the Bible supports their beliefs.
    "This first Comforter or Holy Ghost has no other effect than PURE INTELLIGENCE." (Joseph Smith, TPJS 149)
    Notice: "The Holy Ghost has no other effect than PURE INTELLIGENCE." Not feelings. Not chills. Not tears. Not emotion. Not burning in the bosom. A Hollywood movie that moves one to cry is not the Holy Ghost. The excitement and energy felt at at sports event is not the Holy Ghost.
    However the PURE INTELLIGENCE that the Holy Ghost gives can be accompanied with emotion. And probably often is.

Like Jacob Hansen, I've tried to invite Durbin to have a discussion about his "Gospel for Mormons" that him and his followers are always pushing out. He never wants to do anything formal because he knows he'd lose a discussion if he actually did one with someone who was ready for him.

    The heart in Greek is kardia and analogous to the definition, as stated in Strong's concordance, is "middle". So it's safe to say that heart and bosom (middle) would be considered synonymous. So a burning in your bosom is Biblical I think and describes the affects of the Spirit.

    I've engaged with Jeff Durbin and his merry band of followers a lot over the years, their focus may change but the tactics sure don't. Sow doubt and confusion, then swap it out with their own interpretation of what they think is right with an inundation of verses (because if he can quote verses on the fly he MUST be right) and quotes.
    The thing is they never take the time to even understand what they're opposing. If they acted in good faith and wanted an honest debate, then bridges could be built on mutual understanding and respect, but this lot threw that possibility out the window on day one.

    It is amazing that Durban is so ignorant of his own Bible when it comes to the issue of the heart. In Act 2, Peter is preaching to a bunch of people and after he preaches the "word" it says in verse 37
    "Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do?" Acts 2:37
    The simple preaching of the word itself was not enough. These people needed to be pricked in the heart. The pricking of their heart is the turning point that lead to them being baptized. Without it there is no reason to believe they would have been baptized. They would have just listened to Peter like all the other times they had heard the "word" from other men without experience that pricking of the heart. The pricking of the heart the hinge that turned just hearing the word into action.

      @@lizkt I'm not an expert by any means (I'm LDS), but my understanding in general is that mainline protestants are more theologically liberal and less aggressive in terms of activism/evangelism as compared to their evangelical counterparts. Evangelical protestants might be described as more fundamentalist. Within the various denominations of the Protestant world, there are many, many subdivisions. So for example, two of the big Baptist groups in America are the Southern Baptist Convention (evangelical) and the American Baptist Churches (mainline). They come from the same roots, but have diverged somewhat over time.

      Very true. As a convert I never heard anti Mormon people until him. I grew up Church of Christ (acapella) and they didn't do this gatekeeping of Christianity and every other family members group went to whatever or STARTED many rural churches. My family members were so in southern black churches. Black churches which are evangelical didn't talk about Mormons where I attended. I've had black Mormon and black JW family and everyone talks about knowing Jesus. Period. No other crap about the "right" Jesus. It was so confusing hearing this as a convert. To be the church is just another denomination. I grew up non denominational, so not important.

    It's interesting that he went for D&C 9:8. Our prophets have told us this form of revelation is less common. They recommend we use D&C 8:2 instead:
    "Yea, behold, I will tell you in your mind and in your heart, by the Holy Ghost, which shall come upon you and which shall dwell in your heart."
    This verse aligns with John 14:26, John 15:26; and when used in conjunction with Gal 5:22-23 positively identifies revelation from God (as opposed to temptations of the devil, or your own thoughts)

    People dont get that Moronis promise includes way more than prayer, things like pondering on Gods mercy, asking in faith, with real intent, studying things out in our minds..... its a whole process of including all our God-given senses and capabilities, to then give it in faith to the Lord..
    And besides, in Luke the Apostles also had a "burning" in their breast as Jesus taught them... so what is this telling us? People simply pick something and impose their lack of understanding upon it to mingle scripture with ignorance, to then call it inerranty the will of God.
    As for not trusting in "our own hearts", that may be difficult, since in Romans 6:17 it states:
    "But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed FROM THE HEART that form of doctrine which was delivered you."

    They all know the “burning in the bosom” because it’s a common belief for anyone has experienced time with missionaries. They bring it up all the time. And it’s considered to be bad not because praying is bad, but because the church tells you to ONLY pray to know if the church is true. And to know otherwise, we need to refer to the scripture itself to know if it has major contradictions that would take away from its glory.
