Jesus did it all.
All to Him I owe.
Sin had left a crimson stain,
He washed it white as snow.

Galatians 1:8 “But even if we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel to you than what we have preached to you, let him be accursed.”

[DottieMass-dpkc]

I was raised Mormon and at the age of 49 had an encounter with the Holy spirit and came to know Jesus Christ and left the Mormon Church. I was never raised knowing Jesus only man made rules. I thank God very day for saving me and opening my eyes.

Uncanny how similar the prophet and teachings of Mormons and Muslims are. I’m an exmuslim rescued by Jesus Christ. John 14:6!!! ✝️

I was a Mormon, I went on a mission for two years. I did the Mormon thing for 50 years. I am a Christian now
I asked God to forgive for my sins. I love Jesus Christ Our Savior and Redeemer. I believe in grace of God.

♦"Religion began when the first scoundrel met the first fool."
♦"The delusional religious fools are cocksure and the intelligent full of doubt."
♦"Only fools revere the myths just bc a book claims itself to be the holy truth."
♦"The religious believe by the millions what lunatics could believe on their own."
♦"It's easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled."
♦"It's difficult to free fools from the chains they revere."

I would never side with a person who inspires people to hate on those who belong to a church they choose to not be a part of.

I'm a Latter-day saint, and honestly, the way he mocked and demeaned us by calling us devil worshippers and misconstruing some of our beliefs, as well as the hatred leveled against us in the comments section was extremely discouraging.

All I and my friends want is to live honest lives and improve who we are through the atonement of Christ. Being bullied for that is demoralizing and hurtful. Sure we have different doctrines from other Christians, but I don't see why that's an issue since you can say the same about every religion and sect on Earth. Different people have different opinions—that's completely normal.
The way I see it, the most vital thing is for everyone to be the best they can with whatever knowledge has been given to them in their mortal lives, and strive for honesty and righteousness in whatever way they understand. Obviously human nature constantly gets in the way of that, but no group of people can be exempted from those flaws. We have them, and so does everyone else.

But what hurt even more was that I sensed little if any Christian humility or compassion here, from John and most of the commenters. You can call me biased—I definitely am—but the truth is that I generally think of people of other faiths, particularly other Christians, as being brothers and sisters in the worship of God, and this video weakened my faith in that conviction. It made me wonder if maybe the anti-theist community is right that Christianity and religion in general is more likely to breed arrogance and bigotry than love and compassion, and that was a far worse revelation than the idea that I'm going to be mocked and belittled just because I'm trying to be the best person I can through the traditions I was born into.

I am an ex-Mormon saved by GRACE! I am forgiven by the sinless Blood of the Lamb of God thru Jesus the Messiah

Mormon Religion in a Nutshell explained by someone who knows a Mormon is like asking the guy that sat next to Albert Einstein on the bus about the Theory of Relativity.

[paulturner]

I encourage all people to read Romans frequently.

[dustinclark]

If you can’t trust the Bible’s inerrancy then you can’t believe in Jesus’ ministry. People need prayers to have a heavy heart to repent

JESUS IS THE WAY THE TRUTH AND LIFE 🙏 ❤️

[stevemurphy]

I have been a member of the LDS faith my whole life and just discovered that Robert Millet was the brain trust of our faith and wrote most of the books!

I think I have read only two of them where’s all the rest?

What a jackal? Love laughing by the others on the stage seriously?!??

[matr]

I'm a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints. I believe in the same Jesus as all of you. The same Jesus who suffered and died for the sins of all mankind. The perfect son of God. I'm not sure who this preacher/ author is but he severally miss represented our beliefs. If you have questions please ask a member of the church. I'm positive they'd love to talk about thier beliefs with you. This man espouses to follow Jesus but speaks negatively of an entire religion whos members are doing thier best to follow Christ's example. You shall know them by thier fruits.

[alexinthemiddle]

what's Paul referring to about the 3rd heaven in 2 Corinthians 12:2?

If Mormons are not Christians, why do they have the name of Jesus Christ in their church and claim to be run the way that was set out in 1 Corinthians 12:28 and strive to follow him according to the best of their understanding?

[raymondmeyers]

Mormons have very strange theological beliefs, but they are some of the nicest people you’ll ever meet.

[kurtretzloff]

He's trying to drive a wedge to make us not appear christian by altering what he was told by BYU brain trust. I would personally like to have had a recording of those discussions he had with church representatives. It is very clear that he didn't understand what he was told or was only hearing what he wanted to hear and is not willing to be forthright about what was said.
