Love and Law -Mormon- (OPEN)

Love and Law...

Truly He taught us to love one another
His Law is Love and his Gospel is Peace

From the article: These persons disbelieve eternal laws which they consider contrary to their concept of the effect of God’s love.

Earlier this year I looked through most of the entries the Lds church had on a search under "laws."

Loose-knit, the Lds church has dozens of laws.

You would think that if, as this Lds "apostle" indicates, that the Mormon church would want to emphasize that its members were to follow such "laws," they would centralize them somewhere. Make it easier to note what they are -- let alone follow them.

Do they? (No) Nor do these "eternal laws" get equal attention by the Mormon church.

The two that stand out on its Web site is have to do with tithing (consecrating resources) & purity (abstinence).

An Open Letter to Mormons who are
sincere and serious about their faith...

(but slightly troubled and embarrassed by the posts

of "defender-mormons")

If you peruse the Free Republic religion forums
you will notice a pattern. There’s a group of
Christians who spend a great deal of time posting
from Official Mormon Sources - both the Book of
Mormon as well as Mormon Prophets and Church
materials - real quotes from real mormon materials.

You will also notice that many of these Christians
are former Mormons who left Mormonism and came to
know the Biblical Jesus Christ and His Gospel of Grace

- apart from the treadmill of human works.

They have a passion to share what they learned with

other Mormons.

Of course, they are attacked regularly by a very,
small group of Mormons on FR who have zeal, but no real
knowledge beyond what the Mormon Church has told
them.

Why can't these so-called "defenders" provide any:

… Objective Facts
… Objective Evidence
… Or Logical support

Anything OBJECTIVE that any reasonable person would
see and agree that it lends support the claims of
Mormonism.

God is a God of real history. He wove the strands of

human DNA, His Book, the Bible is rooted and grounded

in real places on real maps and is verified through

archeology, geography, history and genetics.

If Mormonism is true, why is it based only on subjective
feelings and why doesn't it have the same kind of objective
support the Bible does?

Has God changed?

Is He no longer in control of the world?

If they could support the claims of Mormonism with facts,
you know they would. But it never happens. I've even heard

these "defenders" say God hid all evidence to make our

faith greater. Has the God of the universe now become

the Cosmic Easter Bunny? Or is He unchangeable, like the

Bible teaches?

*** Why would God provide every kind of objective support
for the Bible's rich history and none for the Book of
Mormon? ***

These "defenders" post links over and over again that
“address” things yet never provide an answer that is
buttressed by the ring of truth, echoed by history,
archeology, genetics, geography, etc.

You deserve more than feelings and non-answers.

After reading both sides on this thread and others,
you may very well be wondering about what you were
taught when you joined the LDS church. You also may
be wondering how to resolve the tension of a faith

that is based entirely on subjective claims, yet

wants to claim the same God who has commanded you

to love Him with "all your mind."

You are not alone in this journey.

Many have approached us who are Christians asking where

to find out more and some, even, to ask how to come to

know the Biblical Christ and some even how to gracefully

leave Mormonism and start a new life with Christ.

Many here have already set out to finally and joyfully know
the true God and Savior. They understand the terrible choice
of being totally sincere about your faith, but increasingly
concerned that it isn't everything you once believed and hoped for.

After coming to know the truth, they are on a path that gives them
the rest God promised to His children and the certainty of His
ultimate plan for them.

Here are some links to get you started in your quest to know
the Biblical Christ:

http://www.exmormonsforjesus.org/
http://4mormon.org/ex-mormon.php
http://www.exmormon.org/

In the end though, links may raise more questions and concerns

and sometimes it helps to have someone who has wrestled

with all these issues already.

I invite you to private FReep-mail any of the Christians
on this thread to ask questions about the concerns you have.

We always do our best to directly answer your questions with
facts, evidence and logical support.

Take a step.

What do you have to lose at this point? And you have much to

gain.

If something is true, it can withstand any question, no matter

how tough. If it is false, it is better to know while your life

is in front of you.

There is peace and rest waiting for you today. Take a step to

find it now.

All the Best,
