You just did

TeveJera Bailey is right. You just advertised your religion. There is nothing unethical about someone sharing with you what they believe is not only true but will bring great benefit to you. In fact, it would be unethical for them not to tell you.

Just a tip: Using all caps and repeating the same thing over and over again does not make anything true. I believe in God because I have received personal revelation from God. I believe that The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is true because I have received personal revelation from God. Without personal revelation, all you have is tradition and circular reasoning. Have you prayed to God to know if the Bible is true? I have. So I know from God through prayer that it is true. But unless you have received that witness from God, you have no rational basis for religious belief. Same goes for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and The Book of Mormon. Explain to me how it is possible to have true religion without prophets who receive direct revelation from God. The reason for this inquiry is simple: there are multiple interpretations of the same New Testament. You cannot deny this. If there were only one interpretation, there would only be one denomination of Christianity. But instead we see thousands. When left to their own interpretations, humans inevitably interpret wrong. Thus, it is impossible to know that any idea is true unless you have prayed about it yourself. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is predicated upon the fact that if God does not communicate with his creations in a very real sense, then He may as well not exist. Most gods in many religions are ones that are spoken to. The true God is the One who speaks back. But instead of realizing that personal revelation is the only rational basis for religious belief, you yell at the comment section and expect them to take it all at face value. I _have_ prayed. I _have_ read the New Testament. And I have done the same with the Old Testament, and the Book of Mormon. And all of this scripture has strengthened my belief in Christ. Because I have received personal revelation from God, I _know_ that Jesus is the Christ. The New Testament teaches that spiritual things are spiritually discerned. You can only know spiritual truth when the Spirit of Truth communicates it to you. I have done so with the Bible. I have done so with the Book of Mormon as well. And don't call me precious in response. You pompous hypocrite.

GORDON,YOU ARE JUST DOING HARM TO YOURSELF. DO NOT BE STUBBORN. PRAY SWEETHEART AND LET YOUR PRIDE ASIDE. EVEN TODAY A NUMBER OF "MORMONS" HAVE FOUND SALVATION AND HOLY FREEDOM BY DROPPING THE MASK OF CONCEIT AND RECEIVING THE GRACE AND MERCY OF OUR LORD JESUS. SO,WHY DO NOT YOU DO THE SAME ?

​@@gordonbarnes7005 God Bless you Gordon, but how is "personal revelation" NOT circular reasoning. Now I am not against personal revelation but the problem is that we can hear from God, our own imagination and the enemy. All three use the same means. Our emotions. Before anyone has a clue how to discern between the Holy Ghost, ourselves and the enemy the church asks unbelievers to read the BoM and rely on these feelings. Human nature is prone to feel good about things they WANT to believe and if someone is willing to spend that much time reading the book then its likely that they are already poised to accept what they read. This method of validation also doesn't take into account all those who have read the book and found themselves unimpressed. It also doesn't take into account that people in just about every religion... definitely religions like Christianity and Islam... report feeling as if God has confirmed for them the truth of their beliefs. So, hearing the voice of God is not so simple and if we solely rely on that method we aren't likely to find truth. It stops us from seeking, from questioning, from being able to evaluate honestly those things that demonstrate we are in error. Considering your method, how would you ever know if your feelings were deceiving you? ________________ To answer some of your questions.... You said, "Explain to me how it is possible to have true religion without prophets who receive direct revelation from God." - God must reveal himself for us to know Him though we don't necessarily need revelation to know He exists. That doesn't mean that everyone who calls themselves a prophet is an actual prophet. You said, "there are multiple interpretations of the same New Testament. You cannot deny this. If there were only one interpretation, there would only be one denomination of Christianity. But instead we see thousands." -The Mormons also add their interpretations to the Bible. Even the BoM is going to be interpreted by men. Since Mormons consider themselves Christians then Mormonism is just one more denomination. The difference is that they believe in another book, just as some denominations have the apocrypha while others do not. Many denominations have claimed their own prophet such as the Millerites back in the 1800s, the Jehovah Witnesses, 7th Day Adventists. They also all claim to be the restored church on Earth. You said, "When left to their own interpretations, humans inevitably interpret wrong." - Yes, they often do. You know what they also do. They also, often interpret correctly. You said, "Thus, it is impossible to know that any idea is true unless you have prayed about it yourself." - I think above I've answered this but to sum up, you are still relying on a subjective human experience without any way to prove that you are actually hearing from God. Both Judaism and Christianity believe that God communicates with his creation. Mormons don't have a monopoly on that belief. The issue is that God delivered us scripture and that scripture warned us against false teachers and false prophets that will come and preach a different gospel. It warned us and told us to reject them when they came. Joseph is said to be a prophet of God. Not only did he receive a visit from an angel, he participated in the miraculous transcription of some ancient plates. Later he received numerous revelations that he delivered to the church. So, this guy knows the voice of God, does he not. Did you know that Joseph tried to sell the BoM copyright in Canada because he had told everyone that he had received a revelation to do so. So he traveled up to Canada but failed to sell the copy right. To explain this, it was said what I wrote above. There are three sources of revelation. God, ourselves and the enemy and this revelation of Joseph's was obviously not from God. That is the stregnth of personal revelation. That is the danger of it. Joseph was the "man of God." The prophet on earth chosen to restore it yet he got it wrong. How much else did he get wrong but we are unaware because it was doctrine instead of foretelling? I agree that the communication style of Gesu is uncalled for. Nonetheless, personal revelation is NOT the only rational basis for religious belief. In fact, its the least certain of all the others. I don't think you have read the Bible all that deeply. If you had you would have read that there is only one God and that the doctrine of becoming gods is the same sin that Lucifer was cast out of heaven for. Mormons upon conversion begin a quest to satisfy the ordinances required so that they will become gods one day. I would suggest that you put down the BoM for a year and read only the Bible. Listen to its commentators and theologians that have written on it. Then go back to the BoM and see if you see a difference. I'd wager you will. I hope you really consider this. I know the Mormon church teaches you to rely on your personal revelation, but that really is a poor way of knowing truth. It makes sense that they would push this though, if you honestly think about it. If one can always fall back on their "personal revelation" they can ignore the fact that Joseph Smith was an occultist that believed in magic and used the same magic stone in his transcription of the BoM. They can ignore the fact that Joseph lied or was greatly deceived about the BoA scrolls. They can ignore the fact that he was completely wrong in his "revelation" of the kinderhook plates which are now known and proven frauds. They can ignore the fact that Joseph Smith not only married many wives without his wife's knowledge or consent but that some of them were married to other men at the same time.
