1. A Christian considering "Mormonism", thinks Apologia's arguments lack integrity! 

I am an Irish Catholic Mormon. In response to earnest prayer God revealed to me that the Book of Mormon is true over 40 years ago. And I can not deny it.

I realize that this video was done a while ago, but I really wanted to add my 2 cents worth to what you are saying here and what you have said in your many other videos and I feel so much the same way. I was raised Lutheran. I have not attended all Lutheran Churches, but the ones I have attended were very anti LDS (yes, it was referred to as "Mormon" back then. Fear kept me far away. In 1981 I was struggling and as a last ditch effort to feel better I turned to the Bible. I remember sitting up and paying strict attention to what I was reading. Jesus was amazing and became my hero. I was very excited and knew I had to find his church because I remembered reading about one faith, one baptism, and one Lord and I had to find that church. (ppl noticed immediately the change in my demeanor upon reading the Bible). Like Joseph Smith though I asked myself where to find it among the many churches which claim Christianity. I decided to start with the Catholic Church and move around from there. My search was not 47 years, but only 12 years long and most of that time, I, too, never considered the LDS because of the fear...I made fun of the Latter Day Saints with the best of them, but never went so far as handing out leaflets. One time I was in a play with a half a dozen or so Latter Day Saints so I examined them through observation. Put them on my own personal pi tree dish...my little experiment. I noticed they did not say bad words which is unusual in a military environment which I was in, they were nice as could be and they were very family oriented and I remember thinking..."if they are so evil, why do they act so good". Not long afterwards I was at a scout camp and met the Bishops wife of the LDS ward in Stuttgart, Germany of the American Ward. She also was nice and invited me to go to church which I did...not a good day with the tiny ones I had that day, so I can't say I got much out of the meeting. Not long after this we would leave Germany to go home and our choice of places to live was Montana. We ended up settling in St Ignatius, MT where I met the local Bishops wife there also after auditioning for a play. We became quick friends. At this time though I had searched for 12 Years for Christs church. I met many wonderful ppl trying to do wonderful things but something just seemed as though it was missing. I went back to the faith I was raised in and figured that the church I was looking for probably did not exist. It was a train wreck going to that church. They were very anti LDS and spent more time talking about "those Mormons" or "those Jehovahs Wittnesses" than they did teaching about Christ. One Elder who knew I had an LDS friend kept warning me to stay away from them and I got sick of it so I left the church telling him that I was going to investigate the LDS church and find out for myself what they are all about and if I thought it were true I would join with them and if not I just spent a little time studying a new religion. They sent sister missionaries to teach me. Sister Morgan and Sister Lewis along with a senior couple the Papenfusses. I read everything they asked me to and more. I studied starting at 10PM and usually quit studying by 130-200am. I did this from December of 1992 to Feb of 1993. Sometime in February as I studied I felt overpowering warmth within my heart which grew until I thought my heart would burst. I remember both laughing and crying. Laughing, I suppose, because I never could have imagined this feeling and crying because I knew in whose presence I was. I did not see anyone but I heard a voice which called me by name and told me that I should join the church. The voice told me that He knew I did not understand all that I wanted to at this time, but He promised me that in time, a little at a time, those things would be revealed to me. Then the voice left me and everything else came in impressions. I knew that God lived and knew that Jesus was the Christ, the very Son of the living God. I knew I was loved. This was around 0130 am. I rushed to the phone to call the missionaries not even thinking about the time. No answer, of course, but I called and told them in the morning I wanted to be baptized. I was warned that upon this decision Satan could show up trying to discourage me from joining LOL...they were right. Doubts crept in and ironically my big concern was that my traditional faith was held near and dear by my parents, my grandparents, my great grandparents etc and so forth so I remember asking myself how I could join this new and different church with such a rich history in the Lutheran faith. Then I heard that voice one more time...I was merely asked one question..."to whom or to where do your dedications lie?" In other words, temporal traditions of faith come in many varieties...was I more worried about tradition or about following Him. Sometimes if I have a crisis of faith, I remember this testimony and where it led me. I was baptized 28 Feb 1993. I probably can't make it to bountiful or St George area so I thought I would just share how I found the church here. You may or may not see this but it's been good for me to feel that strong spirit come back to me as I remember those days. PS...Scrat is actually my husband...forgot I was on his computer. I am Charleen.

I was a born again Baptist, and when I first learned of the plan and first vision it was like a breath of fresh air! I knew there was something more! I've never looked back! While there is hordes of antimormon questions I waited it out and found answers later, ( most were outright lies or third party refrences) I am so glad I took those questions with a grain of salt because through the years (40) my testimony has become more solidified!

I just stumbled upon your channel and I’m loving it. I’m a convert to the LDS over 33 years from evangelical church and i never looked back. I am too very grateful for my old church b/c it was there that I learned about God and Jesus Christ preparing me to receive the restored gospel of Jesus Christ. My father was a deacon in the old church but he too joined the LDS faith with my mother in 2009 while I was serving my mission for the church in California. Welcome to the faith and keep posting. Can’t wait to hear your testimony when you enter the temple and learn about the eternal and celestial covenant there in.

I love your spirit David…temperate, humorous, sincere, simple and wise, and fully grounded in the Word of God. Only a person lacking the Spirit could be offended by your open hearted goodwill. Good luck with the huge task you have set for yourself…I think you just might be the man for the job.

"Apologia really aren't as smart as they think they are." Hahahahaha! I love it. I absolutely agree. One of my gifts has been understanding the scriptures and I can see through what durbin lies about. I stand with Jacob in the book of Mormon when he said "And he had hope to shake me from the faith, notwithstanding the many revelations and the many things which I had seen concerning these things;wherefore, I could not be shaken." Jacob 7:5

please note a "typo" in the video...at 11:52, I say, "I grew up like all the other Latter Day Saints".....I misspoke there, as can be clearly seen by what I say after.....what I meant to say was, "I grew up like all the other Evangelical Christians"...hearing about "Kingdom of the Cults", hearing Walter Martin Cassettes about the Mormons, etc, etc".....

I lost the love of my life almost 2 years ago after 48yrs together and had my LDS faith tested like no other time in my life… Their understanding of the everlastingness of life is like no other narrative (scripturally based too) on earth and is my joy, my hope and my faith. And if I’m wrong? lol then I’ll still die a happy man. 🎈❤️😊

Hi David! I can’t tell you how much I appreciate your sincerity and humility in sharing your thoughts here. I have many wonderful evangelical friends and family members and I was raised lds so I know the comments you’re talking about well… the evangelicals in my small town had such strong animosity towards the lds church. As a teen I had friends that were forbidden to spend time with us anymore. One friend told their dad they were interested in attending the lds church and his dad called their pastor to have the devil cast out of his son. At our graduation ceremony the parents asked to pray at the open and close of the ceremony used it as an opportunity to pray over the brainwashed Mormon teens that we’d see the light, etc. It hurt to feel so misunderstood and misjudged. I dated the son of an evangelical pastor in secret for a couple of years and went to church meetings with him and really felt like it was lacking something … and it was just unfortunate that they were so afraid of us that I had to keep the fact that I was lds a secret. On my mission I heard it all of course. The gospel has been an immeasurable source of peace, comfort, light and beauty in my life. It has brought me pure joy and given me clarity and purpose and direction. Not to mention motivating me to strive to be my best self. I wish that everyone could find and experience such peace and hope. Since my husband left the church about 6 years ago I have been through a faith crisis which has rocked my world. I’ve really missed the peace and beauty of the gospel and have not found anything that remotely matches it. I’m glad I came across your page and I can’t get enough of your videos and testimony and just feel my heart swell with gratitude that I was blessed to have been raised lds. I’m not necessarily where I want to be but I’m trying to head in that direction … and this warmed my heart! You have such a beautiful spirit. It’s hard work to wrestle with what you believe and to be open and share and put yourself out there. Just wanted to say thank you!

I just stumbled upon this and am blown away! Thank you for taking the time to seriously engage with our theology--it has brought so much light into my life and love to see someone like you finding that light as well! I am here for you and will keep you in my prayers!

Wow, thanks so much for sharing your thoughts and feelings! I’m a Christian Latter Day Saint, and I love what you said in your video on the CWIC show, that there’s a “mist of darkness” over the Church, and that you mentioned that we’ve been fed “propaganda” to keep people from the truth. We see it all the time nowadays, where the truth is made to look bad, or it is hidden. That proves to me how true, and how wonderful The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints really is. Satan really doesn’t want anyone to know about it. There is hope, truth and light found in the church, and it’s truth Satan doesn’t want anyone to know about. Thank you SO much for your videos! This is exactly what the world needs to hear, and from someone like you who knows the Bible so well! Keep it up and stay strong! ❤❤❤ 🙏

Thank you for this, I had an online conversation with an appologia member which ended in an insult. They were not worth the time spent and it was not Christian like.

I came here after watching your conversation with Cwic Media!!!! Thank you for your powerful testimony, it did strengthen my testimony!! I can relate to your faith journey as I am a convert myself.

Wow you nail it ! I've been a member of the church for almost 40yrs never regret it the best part of my life welcome brother yes it's true there so much mess in the evangelical churches .

David, it takes real courage and commitment to share as honestly and openly as you have here. Much respect and sincere congratulations on finding what you feel is right.

Brother , I am actually catching up on your videos . The first one I listened to was I believe right before your baptism . I have now caught up to myself. I am really happy to have found your channel. I never before could understand what evangelicals believed .

David, I listened to your interview on the Cwic Media podcast and was blown away! I was born in the Church and have studied other faiths over the past few years. One thing I'm sometimes frustrated with is something you mentioned to Greg Matsen: that Latter-day Saints aren't as biblically literate as other Christians. I've tried to become more biblically literate myself, and I'm so excited to hear you talk about what you've discovered in the Restoration with your background of studying the Bible! Thank you for your cheerful testimony and your faith in creating this channel, and I look forward to listening to all your videos.

Thank you for sharing your experiences and journey so openly and honestly. I believe you are on the correct path and pray you can find the peace that the truth brings. I hope your videos will be seen by thousands.

It's wise to think of baptism as a marriage covenant. This is why those who practice idolatry are likened unto adulterers. I look forward to watching your other videos brother!

Hello Brother David, I hope to watch all your videos. Your spirit and testimony are so refreshing, honest, and beautiful (I've watched your podcast with CWIC, I believe it's called). Joseph Smith once said something to the effect that if he couldn't convince other's to join his faith, he would nonetheless die defending their right to worship God as they please. God bless!

I used to watch some anti-Mormon. My faith was not shaken, but I give it some thoughts. Until I watched a video of "Dusty" (a Mormon who fall away then came back to Mormonism) two months ago. From that point forward, there is nothing will shake my faith for the LDS faith.

Omg you are so funny, and there is so much trash on the internet about the Church , and many LDS are falling for it, but there is no other place that has the Authority and the truth of the original church. I love the truth and I Know , Know, The Church of Jesus Christ is the restored true Gospel of Jesus Christ, and it is beautiful!

My husband and I have watched many of your videos. We live near Ogden, Utah. We are excited to go to the Potluck Testimony picnic this September 2nd in Bountiful. I took that day off work especially for it.

The missionaries falls into the debate traps, because they put themselves in it. Wish the MTC teaches how to recognize it. Their calls are not to go out and debate their beliefs. They are called to share their beliefs, NOT debating it. When they see their seeds are fallen into rocks and barren soil, it's time to move on.

Thank you for your faith and example. It’s so refreshing. I have grown up in the restored church and I know we take it for granted. We swim in the spirit and sometimes don’t realize what we’ve been given. I am working on letting my light shine and no more be complacent and hide under a bushel. God bless you for your faith, strength, and example.

You my friend are a pure seeker of truth. There are so few people who would ever be willing to do what you are doing. Because its extremely difficult.

Thank you for your sincerity. The Lord was wanting for you with open arms. The embrace must have felt heavenly. ❤

This is an awesome video. CWIC media led me here. I'll be looking into your other videos too. Your story is a lot similar to mine (except I am significantly younger)... Saludos de México

So fun that RU-vid is putting your older videos in my feed!!! Too much fun for me to follow your journey!!!

I’m enjoying all of your videos. Thank you for creating them! :-)

Your story is amazing & your humble witness is very powerful. The Holy Spirit confirms the wisdom you are sharing in your videos. I feel it! Praying you will have great influence on others who want to find truth. The Holy Spirit bears witness of truth to those who are humble & are willing to hear. Keep sharing in love🙏

Glad I stumbled upon your channel. Thanks for doing what you do. I’m looking forward to watching your other videos.

I am trying to watch all of your videos. There is truth emanate from your countenance.

New to your channel, but I know that the gospel and doctrine of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is true. I would never pretend to know and understand everything about it’s history but I know the doctrine and principles are true. I know that we have a Prophet (Russell M Nelson) who is called of God as are the Quorum of the twelve and his councilors. I know Joseph Smith is a Prophet of God who restored this Church in this last dispensation exactly as he said it happened. I know I have an inner peace and joy that I know comes from the spirit of God. The spirit has told me strongly and powerfully that this is the true Church and whispers the same everyday. I know that conversion is a daily occurrence and a testimony must be nourished EVERY day. You’re on the right path and I’m grateful to you for it.

A question that I’ve had lately is, “Why are followers of Jesus Christ tearing down and bashing other followers of Jesus Christ?” We should be uniting against the devil and his kingdom and not fighting against one another over doctrine. Jesus has said, “…he that hath the spirit of contention is not of me, but is of the devil, who is the father of contention, and he stirreth up the hearts of men to contend with anger, one with another. Behold, this is not my doctrine, to stir up the hearts of men with anger, one against another; but this is my doctrine, that such things should be done away.”

David, a book you might enjoy that's a very light, quick read is The Book of Mormon, The Key to Conversation by Glenn L. Pearson. He was my grandfather, and a man that President Ezra Taft Benson said of that knew and understood the Book of Mormon better than anyone of that time. He truly did. He wrote lots of church curriculum and was one of the best, greatest, most humble and extremely highly intelligent men I've ever known.

Thank you for doing this David Alexander. Thank you for your desire to help evangelical Christians and Latter Day Saint Christians. My husband and I have been married for twenty years. He took off his garments five years ago. People came up with all kinds of accusations, and I was alone, on my knees, crying for direction in my life. In time, the answer came to love and be patient. All I could do was bow my head and try, pray, and try, read scriptures, and try. It got easier to love and I became able to be patient. Then, one day, I took a chance and watched a video of yours. I wasn't sure what it would be like. I was hesitant to invite more difficulties in. But you addressed the things that gave healing to my heart and consoled me. Thank you, brother David. May God bless you for doing this.

Bear in mind that the LDS church teaches God puts good insights into all churches. We believe God can nudge people from all Churches toward light and truth. We do believe God did restore the true authority (priesthood) to the LDS church, so we do have that authority to baptize, marry, etc. So good LDS people should be respectful to all other churches. We welcome you to attend our church, they are all over the place. We invite you to meet with the poor, uneducated, undertrained missionaries. Only the Spirit of God could do good with them!

It had come to mind several times when looking at the scriptures that in the story about Korihor that the people of Ammon and others, who were true disciples, would NOT let him come in among them to ruin the youth. They actually bound him him up and took him out of the land and then made him go elsewhere. They understood and had true gospel insight to not want to just let the wolves run among the sheep and destroy them. Farmers get this... if you leave the predators there, your flock will get destroyed. But people that don't really fully understand what's at stake will get confused about some argument about free agency. Free agency is real but it doesn't mean you leave a wolf in there with the sheep. That's the craziest thing I've ever heard of that people would be so ... deceived and deluded to think that just because free agency exists we're going to let all the wolves in and let them do what they want to eat up all the little lambs. I don't particularly like apologist views because of this. Although I'm referring to the idea of an apologetic view, and not a person or entity known as Apologia (Is that a group?) The youth, the new people in the church, they don't always know what's a wolf and a sheep. And they need to be protected from poison. There are people that study how to destroy others, destroy and corrupt identity. Jesus Christ and the real gospel heal all kinds of sicknesses, including helping people with identity, with all the problems of life. And can fill people with love and the love of God. When reading Lehi's dream about the tree of life, the disciples when they really tasted the love of god and how good and how wonderful it was they didn't feel the pull of the great and spacious building anymore. They weren't interested in it. But I worry a lot of members have stagnated a bit and not gotten to the point of really tasting the love of god yet. They think they know the gospel, but they aren't feeling it yet. I hope more people can feel it like you can. And that they can taste the love of Christ. If they can get to this point they can get to where they won't be led astray so easily and pulled away. But people are easy to get pulled away now. Its hopeful that you and others can help keep them straight. And it has to do with getting to this idea of getting to the taste of the fruit of the love of god.

Here's where it all began. (I've been trying to watch each & every video from "David Again," checking it off & leaving a brief comment. For some reason, I didn't, when I saw it the 1st time, so I'm rectifying that now.) I'm coming back to this on 10/7/23 while waiting for David to return to posting new videos following his 35-day trip to this U.S. and back again. It was so nice to have him take "us" with him on most of that trip. The "Testimony Potluck Picnic" would have been great to have been a part of, in person, but we were able to feel some of the spirit that was there. Thanks David, for all the inspiration you provide us!

David I'm sure it's ok for you to share your channel to my friends here in the Philippines and all over the 🌍

Hello everyone. I was brought to this channel by various commenters on David Boice's "52 Churches in 52 Weeks" channel. Having served an LDS mission in Oklahoma, Texas, and Missouri, I have encountered quite a few of those Apologia-types. I know first-hand about being "hammered" with all the anti-Mormon literature by them. Having graduated from LDS Seminary while in my high school years, and having a high IQ such that I could remember all the things I have learned from my study of the Bible, Book of Mormon, Doctrine & Covenants/church history, etc.; I could easily pick out all the twisted truths, "straw man" arguments, logical fallacies, faulty sources, quotes taken out of context, the outright fabrications, etc., in everything they would bash us with. (A "straw man" is an false or distorted assertion made specifically for the purpose of tearing it down. In other words, their attack is made on their distorted or false version of the truth instead of the truth, itself.) I, too can relate to how laughable it all is. I was not swayed one bit. I also know first hand about all the confirmation bias there is in Evangelical Christianity. Confirmation bias is the tendency for people to process information by only looking for, interpreting towards, or accepting only information that is consistent with their existing beliefs; meanwhile ignoring, dismissing, or outright rejecting, any information or facts that are not consistent with their existing beliefs. Evangelical Christians especially do this with the Bible. All anti-Mormon literature is designed to deceive the ignorant and create confirmation bias in its readers against the LDS church. I has also become clear to me that all these authors of anti-Mormon literature knew that they were lying when they wrote them, somehow justifying in their minds that it was okay to lie in order to bring people into their own belief system. I like to call them "Liars for Jesus." I know that when they do this, they are really following Satan, the "Father of All Lies." It is all "paper tigers." (A "paper tiger" is something or someone that claims or appears to be powerful or threatening, but is actually ineffectual and unable to withstand challenge.) After watching the first two videos in this channel, I am getting the sense that David Alexander is going to cut down all the confirmation bias, challenge all the "paper tigers," and expose all the lies and twisted truths ("straw men") about the LDS Church that these "Liars for Jesus" have published throughout the world. Knowing the truth about all these things already, I don't know that I will learn much from this channel. However, as I follow this channel, I believe it can serve to reinforce what I already know, and it just may help me learn to be a better and more noble defender of the truth.

14:20 I absolutely agree. Their arguments are so weak that only weak people follow their logic for apologia studio's. I like you can see through it because of my knowledge of the scriptures.

Just started to start your first videos because I started in the couple weeks ago but now I'm getting your story

I appreciate your point at 8:23. When there are so many religious options, and the option for none at all, it's not like attacking one of those means that yours must be correct.

god bless

I know this the book is approved of and brought to man by Heavanly beings. I thank God for it. ! Those who are "offended" by its marvelous message then make it their lifes work to diminish and mock it, are in my view, under Satan's influence either willingly or unwittingly and they are by definition the anti-Christs of the world. So sad.... for them.

I love your sincerity. Of all counsel to listen to, take God's counsel above all others. The whole world can be collectively wrong, but we know God is right and is the dependable source of truth.

Checking your series out, been reading up on LDS but have mixed thoughts with no real background in religion.

Jumping from the Ark into the sharks!! right on

What i found interesting is they claim lds is not Christian because they reject historic Christian beliefs. But they reject baptism as necessary for salvation, and we know that prior to the reformation and still in the Catholic and Orthodox faiths which are the most historic of the churches do mandate baptism

There is a book that you might be interested in reading. It's called Why I Believe The Book of Mormon (and why anybody can) by Tony Decker. This could help you in your journey to make a very important decision.

My guess is that of they picked you to debate the video would mysteriously disappear.

apologia studios are calvinists. calvinists are NOT christians. calvinists believe god created all things, and controls all things, predetermined all things, and made all things exactly the way they are. ... thus god also created evil. therefore since calvinists believe god created evil. they are blaspheming against the holy spirit ... the only unforgivable sin. calvinists also believe the only people who will be saved have been predetermined by god. and since calvinists believe god predetermined who will be saved ... they have removed free will - the gift of god to humans, and removed jesus from the equation. ... and of course ... calvinists are arrogant enough to believe they are some of the predetermined to be saved ( without a shred of evidence) ... despite the fact jesus claimed he came to save all mankind. 1 timothy 2:3-6 3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; 4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. 5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; 6 Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time. in fact ... in that respect calvinists are just like muslims. since god (according to calvinists) has already determined who will be saved ... (and who will not be saved) ... those who will be saved do not need christ and those who will not be saved cannot come to christ. thus calvinists do not preach the gospel. thus calvinists are not christians. mormons do not believe god created evil. mormons believe god gave every human free will. mormons believe everyone can be saved, because god sent jesus to take the sins of every human upon himself. and therefor all humans who accepts christ's sacrifice can be saved. mormons are more christian than calvinists.

Many converts like Ether 4: 13 to 19. So many versions of christianity, where everyone is right, it is disheartening. The Book of Mormon explains itself: Learning of the Jews, language of the Egyptians.

What a dare? Lol that's funny!

Apologia, while they mean well, are misguided. They believe that they're bringing the true gospel to Utah, but they're not. Their mission to dismantle the Church will fail and we will prevail. I don't hate them, but I don't like what they are trying to do.

Alma 37:9 is unknown but its message is important. The plates/ the Book of Mormon brought unbelievers to know God and his son, their redeemer. If knowing God and Christ is desirable to you, now is the time to start. Your faith in Christ is just the start. Alma 32 says that faith must be exercised. When it is, it stops being faith. It will become knowledge. The goal should be to know Christ, not just to follow after him.

It’s crazy how I can see the difference in your countenance in these old videos compared to the newer ones. You looked unhappy here

All I’m gonna say is what are you waiting for? Have you taken up these hesitations with God. I guess for me on a personal level it hasn’t taken so much convincing for me. For me I don’t need to have all my ducks lined up in a row; to know that this church is true.

The out of the ordinary “coincidences” have pointed to the Brand New Culture and Radical Life of the people of the Peacemaker. Perhaps it’s not too late for you to return?

Any chance you can re-upload with the volume fixed? It is extremely soft, can barely make out what you're saying at full volume

I KNOW THE MORMON CHURCH IT THE TRUTH,GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST IN ITS FULLNESS. i KNOW GOD WAITED TILL A PURE SOUL ASKED WHICH CHURCH WAS TRUE, i KNOW GOD SAID NONE OF THEM. TO WAIT, AS HE WILL BE RESTORING THE FULLNESS OF THE GOSPEL. TIMING HAD BE RIGHT.GOD SEES EVERY THOUGHT MAN HAS. HE KNOWS EVERY GRAIN OF SAND AND WHERE ANY THINK I SEE , HE KNOWS WHERE IT IS , AND WILL GUIDE ME TO IT THRU PRAYER. THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST WAS BROUGHT BACK THE EARTH THRU GOD,AND ANGELS, . I AM BLESSED TO BELONG TO THIS CHURCH. SAME ONE YOUR CONSIDERING JOINING. YOU WILL SEE MIRACLES. AS I HAVE.. I WISH YOU LIVED CLOSE BY, MAYBE YOU COULD VISIT MY CHILDREN AND MISSIONARY THEM. THEY WERE ALL BAPTISED IN THE CHURCH AND NOW ARE CONFUSED, THEY LIVE IN WISCONSIN

I understand your issues with evangelical Christianity. Based on the Mormons that I have met, they are better quality people than most of the evangelicals I have crossed paths with. Even though Mormons are lovely, kindhearted people, it doesn't mean that their religion is true. While there are aspects about the LDS Church I can appreciate, there are parts of their faith that I could never abide by. The LDS view of God's nature is particularly troublesome to me. This quote is from the LDS Church. "As man is, God once was; as God is, man may become." This means that according to LDS theology, God was once a mortal man and that man has the potential to become God. This contradicts with the way God is presented in Scripture. Please read Isaiah 43:10,11 and Psalm 90:2. There is only one God. There can be no gods before Him or after Him. God is one and He is eternal from everlasting to everlasting.

Eastern Orthodox doesn’t have have authority???? Y’all were started in the 1800s 😭😭. I’ve been a Mormon for 18 years until I left. I’m so sorry for you. I’ll pray for you. Mormonism looks nothing like the ancient church, so glad I looked into Orthodoxy

I hope you have fully considered the consequences of speaking out to the world against the christian church that Jesus died for. I wouldn't want to be in your shoes at the judgment day having to give an account for that.
