Mormon Dilemma 39

Salvation, None Outside of Mormonism

Mormon Doctrine, pg. 138; “There is no salvation outside this one true Church, the Church of Jesus Christ. There is one Christ, one Church, one gospel, one plan of salvation, one set of saving ordinances, one group of legal administrators, “One Lord, one faith, one baptism.” (Eph. 4:5.)”

Ephesians 4:3-6; “Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.  4 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;  5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism,  6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.”

True to form, the Mormons don’t want to accept the surrounding verses in this passage.  Indeed, there is one faith, one baptism and most importantly, ONE GOD who is above all, through all and IN all. 

Ironically, the FLDS feel the same way about their church as well (I will always believe they’re practicing a truer form of Mormonism than the mainstream LDS Church in Salt Lake).  How is it that both of them can be right if they’re both following what Joseph Smith taught?  Warren Jeffs is just doing what he was taught…right?  Look at all the trouble that’s been caused just by one false church teaching false doctrines.  Pray that this trial in Texas will not only wake up the members of the FLDS, but the followers like my mother in Utah as well.
