As an update to this post – I somehow forgot to include some verses about finding strength in the Lord – yikes!
Psalm 28:7-8, 37:39, 59:9; Exodus 15:2; Isaiah 45:24…and the list goes on!
TheChurchNews.com “The word that defines counsel and direction from President Nelson during general conference — ‘faith’ …
Temples are a vital part of the Restoration of the gospel of Jesus Christ in its fulness,” he said. “Ordinances of the temple fill our lives with power and strength — available in no other way. We thank God for those blessings.” — Russell Nelson [emp. added]
John 14:12 “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.”
Acts 7:48 “Howbeit the most High dwelleth not in temples made with hands; as saith the prophet”.
Acts 17:24 “God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands”.
If you trust Russell Nelson there’s no way merely believing in the Lord produces great power or strength. This leaves us with only one conclusion: someone isn’t telling the truth.
With that in mind we’re wondering…
Who lied?
Was it Jesus, or Mr. Nelson?
Using demonstrative evidence ask the Mormon for their opinion, and be sure to let them know you’re praying for them! Also share what Paul said in 1 Cor. 3:16 & 6:19.

Please show me from the Bible where Christians are to have temples, let alone ordinances in them!
