February 22 — LDS: Miracle of the Holy Bible. General Conference, ‘The Miracle of the Holy Bible’, April 2007 “It is a miracle that we have the Bible’s powerful doctrine, principles, poetry, and stories.

Jesus promised that His word will never pass away – PTL! There’s obviously no need in trying to show that Jesus kept His promise seeing as how we’re quoting from it today!
The LDS quote today seems all well and good except we know Mr. Ballard was lying because of the Church’s own history. Their Article of Faith 1:8 states they don’t believe the Bible –
“We believe the Bible to be the word of God as far as it is translated correctly; we also believe the Book of Mormon to be the word of God.”
Ask the Mormon how they can believe what Ballard said when their everyday life proves otherwise. And please, don’t forget to pray!
With Love in Christ –
