Mormon Dilemma 600

Earning Godhood & Father Adam

Journal of Discourses 6:275-276; “This is a key for you. The faithful will become Gods, even the sons of God; but this does not overthrow the idea that we have a father. Adam is my father; (this I will explain to you at some future time;) but it does not prove that he is not my father, if I become a God: it does not prove that I have not a father.” – Brigham Young, Salt Lake City, August 28, 1852

Proverbs 25:26; “A righteous man falling down before the wicked is as a troubled fountain, and a corrupt spring.”

And so go those in Mormonism. They were worshipping the God of the Bible in their homelands across the ocean and believed they’d find new truths of the same God here in the States. 

Whether they didn’t dare leave or decided they liked the idea of becoming gods themselves is something only the Lord knows. 

Either way they forfeited their place with Him in eternity for a false message coming from a false prophet.
