Brigham Lied: God Didn’t Fight Polygamy Battles for Mormon Church

 September 23 — Journal of Discourses 5:167 “Brother Heber has been prophesying. You know that I call him my Prophet, and he prophesies for me. And now I prophesy that, if this people will live their religion, the God of heaven will fight their battles, bring them off victorious over all their enemies, and give to them the kingdom. That is my prophecy. I said amen to all that brother Heber prophesied, for it is true; and he may say amen to all that I prophesy, for it is also true.” – Brigham Young, Salt Lake City, August 30, 1857

Exodus 14:14 “The LORD shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace.”

God didn’t fight any battles for the Mormon Church. One of their most beloved doctrines (polygamy) was done away with in 1890.

This means Brigham lied which made this a false prophecy.

If polygamy was a mandate for salvation what were Mormons supposed to do once it had become illegal?

Where was their God?

Why didn’t Brigham tell them that God didn’t approve of polygamy? He allowed it in the OT but He never approved it. Deut. 17:17

“Neither shall he multiply wives to himself, that his heart turn not away: neither shall he greatly multiply to himself silver and gold.”

Ask the Mormon you know why God didn’t watch out for them on this topic and be sure to tell them you aren’t asking this out of animosity rather it stems from a deep concern for their spiritual well-being!
