Mormon Dilemma 290

Not Inspired of God

Alma 24:19; “And thus we see that, when these Lamanites were brought to believe and to know the truth, they were firm, and would suffer even unto death rather than commit sin; and thus we see that they buried their weapons of peace, or they buried the weapons of war, for peace.”

2 Tim. 3:16; “All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.”

This is just one of the reasons I cannot believe in Mormonism.  Furthermore, this means the LDS verse above isn’t scripture according to the Bible.  Notice the words in 2 Tim. 3:16 

All scripture is given by inspiration.  Clearly leaving your correction in the text of the scripture isn’t inspired.  This isn’t the standard the Lord gave scribes to write scripture and must be disregarded.  For a very interesting and well documented site on how biblical scribes copied biblical texts see Probe Ministries’ article here http://www.leaderu.com/orgs/probe/docs/bib-docu.html
