Polygamy and Mormon Church Leaders 5

Lorenzo Snow 1814-1901

Teachings of Lorenzo Snow, p. 155-160; “Pay a full tithing. The time has now come for every Latter-day Saint, who calculates to be prepared for the future and to hold his feet strong upon a proper foundation…I pray that every man, woman, and child who has means shall pay one-tenth of their income as a tithing…Our enemies are upon our path…”

This time around we’re looking at the false prophecy of Joseph Smith when he emphatically declared and proclaimed that there were no Greek or Latin words on the plates from where he got the information to produce the Book of Mormon.

Another End of the World Prophecy Gone Bad

Only the good Lord knows and has kept track of all the doomsday prophets of this world.  There was Jim Jones in the ’70’s and Harold Camping today.  According to Time Magazine, Camping predicted the world would end yesterday, May 22, 2011.  It’s a good thing he was wrong because I was attending our neighbor’s wedding when the supposed end was predicted!

False Prophecies of Joseph Smith and the Book of Mormon

As I’ve mentioned before there have been countless false prophecies uttered by Joseph Smith.  The Book of Mormon seems to be from none other than the fanciful imagination of Smith.  The characters stories, location, et al, are all non-existent.  That is according to the late Hugh Nibley, LDS Church historian.

Contradictions Between Bible and Book of Mormon

2 Timothy 3:7; “Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.”

     The scripture above is the theme of this article.  Please, pray for the Mormon people won’t you?  Below are just some of the contradictions we’ve found between the Bible and the Book of Mormon.  For a more detailed list of contradictions in the Triple Combination we offer a book written by Colleen Ralson in our bookstore which I highly recommend!

Civil War Prophecy

D&C 87:1-6; “Verily, thus saith the Lord concerning the wars that will shortly come to pass, beginning at the rebellion of South Carolina, which will eventually terminate in the death and misery of many souls; 2 And the time will come that war will be poured out upon all nations, beginning at this place.3 For behold, the Southern States shall be divided against the Northern States, and the Southern States will call on other nations, even the nation of Great Britain, as it is called, and they shall also call upon other nations, in order to defend themselves against other nations; and then war shall be poured out upon all nations.4 And it shall come to pass, after many days, slaves shall rise up against their masters, who shall be marshaled and disciplined for war.5 And it shall come to pass also that the remnants who are left of the land will marshal themselves, and shall become exceedingly angry, and shall vex the Gentiles with a sore vexation.6 And thus, with the sword and by bloodshed the inhabitants of the earth shall mourn; and with famine, and plague, and earthquake, and the thunder of heaven, and the fierce and vivid lightning also, shall the inhabitants of the earth be made to feel the wrath, and indignation, and chastening hand of an Almighty God, until the consumption decreed hath made a full end of all nations.”

False Prophecies of Joseph Smith

Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, pg. 157; “How have we come at the Priesthood in the last days? It came down, down, in regular succession. Peter, James, and John had it given to them and they gave it to others. Christ is the Great High Priest; Adam next. Paul speaks of the Church coming to an innumerable company of angels—to God the Judge of all—the spirits of just men made perfect; to Jesus the Mediator of the new covenant. (Hebrews 12:22-24.)”

FALSE PROPHECIES  

     We receive more requests for information on the false prophecies of the LDS Church than I can count.  So in light of these events, we’ve assembled several that we’ll be posting for now but come back often to see the updates!

Above all, to establish what a false prophecy is, we must first turn to the Bible.  I was being interviewed on a radio show when the host of the show asked me if we could discern true prophets by the prophecies that come true.  Without trying to sound ambiguous, the answer to that is no, we cannot; and yes, that is part of it.  If a man calls himself a prophet, and his prophecy comes true then yes, it’s a good sign he is from God.  However,  if that prophet prophecies a word and claims it is of God and it is proven false, then it doesn’t matter how many he got right before or after the false prophecy; he’s a false prophet.

THE TEMPLE OF GOD

October 2005

As most of you are aware, my writings about the LDS Church often reflect the book in the Bible I am studying at the time.  Right now I am in an in-depth study on Paul’s first epistle to the new believers in Corinth.  Half way through my study for the day it became abundantly clear what I was to write this time for the website.  After walking with the Lord for more than twelve years now I’ve discovered there is no such thing as “coincidence”.

February 25 – “Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God;  And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even death of the cross.”  Phil. 2:5-6, 8.

_____

There are actually two subjects to notice with this verse.  Explain the word “robbery” to the Mormon.  In the Greek, it means “grasped”.  The other subject is the belief that Jesus had to perform, or work, to receive His salvation.

“If a man gets a fullness of the priesthood of God he has to get it in the same way that Jesus Christ obtained it, and that was by keeping all the commandments and obeying all the ordinances of the house of the Lord.”  Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, pg. 308

Interesting facts of 3-in-1 Part 1

3-in-1 Introductory page of the Book of Mormon says; “Jesus is the Christ, the Eternal God”

  The LDS Church does not believe in the Trinity.  In the book Articles of Faith, pg, 40-1, it states; “Unity of the Godhead….this cannot rationally be construed to mean that the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost are one in substance and in person, nor that the names represent the same individual under different aspects.”

 There are two more items of interest just in this one sentence on their introductory page.

 1-What is the meaning of eternal?

2-They only believe that Jesus has earned the right to become a god because of his good works here on earth.  This statement does not mean that Jesus is our God, just that he is a god.
