@ComeHometoRome I do read it. Yes, that is analogy Jesus draws. But that’s not what is going on here. He cleanses the literal temple and calls it his father’s house.

“Why are Mormons so focused on their temples?? Just focus on Jesus!!” Jesus, when people disregard the sanctity of the temple:

People don’t avoid reading The Book of Mormon because they are afraid it might be true. I’ve seen this a lot on X by members and quite frankly it’s a dumb take. Perhaps there’s someone on earth that has avoided it for that reason. Majority have been taught their whole lives, using bad Biblical interpretation, that it’s not true…that it cannot be true. That it is inspired by a demon and teaches about a false Jesus. This is why they avoid it. They don’t want to invite evil and bad doctrine. We know this is not true, but we need to take a different approach. You won’t win any hearts and minds telling your base of followers that people don’t read it because they are afraid it’s true. How about you just share what’s in it like @jaredadairbell does. My favorite verse is: Helaman 5 9 O remember, remember, my sons, the words which king Benjamin spake unto his people; yea, remember that there is no other way nor means whereby man can be saved, only through the atoning blood of Jesus Christ, who shall come; yea, remember that he cometh to redeem the world⁠.

You don't need a PhD, mountains of logical irrefutable evidence, or even blindly trust the words of the prophets to know if the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is true or not. You just need to ask God.

I have two separate anchors in my testimony of the Prophet Joseph Smith Jr: 1) most importantly, the witness of the Holy Ghost after reading and praying about the Book of Mormon and the Doctrine and Covenants; and 2) my Ferrin and Lincoln ancestors were awesome people who knew and followed Joseph Smith and Brigham Young.

@UncommonYield @InterpreterFnd Those were all believers, not antagonists. There is a major difference. There’s no reasonable doubt that Joseph had plates of some kind, plus there were other artifacts he possessed which weren’t under the same restriction: the sword of Laban, the Urim & Thumin, the Liahona, etc.

I wish our LDS churches did a Good Friday service. We attend a Protestant service every Good Friday with my dad and sister’s family and it’s beautiful. Powerful sermon and music. At the end of the service crashing sounds play on the speakers and then the chapel goes completely dark and silent and everyone walks out to their cars in darkness and silence. You feel a sense of dread, complete sadness they killed our Savior, and long for his resurrection. Then on Sunday it’s legit joy and celebration in the songs and sermon that our Savior lives and because He lives we will too one day. So powerful!!

Mormonism is objectively false because its canonized scripture, the Book of Abraham (Pearl of Great Price), rests on a verifiable falsehood. Joseph Smith acquired Egyptian papyri in 1835 and declared that one roll contained “the writings of Abraham… written by his own hand, upon papyrus.” He produced a “translation,” published facsimiles of three vignettes with his detailed interpretations, and canonized the result as scripture. The LDS Church still presents it as authentic ancient scripture translated “by the gift and power of God.” The surviving papyri fragments (recovered in 1967 and owned by the Church) are ordinary Ptolemaic-era (300–100 BCE) Egyptian funerary texts specifically, a Book of Breathings and Book of the Dead sections for a priest named Hor. They contain standard spells for the afterlife invoking Egyptian gods (Osiris, Anubis, etc.). They mention nothing about Abraham, his life, teachings, Kolob, or any content in the Book of Abraham. The papyri date centuries after Abraham (~2000 BCE) and were prepared long after his lifetime. Latter-day Saint and non-Latter-day Saint Egyptologists agree: the characters on the fragments do not match the Book of Abraham translation, and Smith’s published interpretations of the facsimiles are incorrect. Facsimile 1, for example, is a standard embalming/resurrection scene of the deceased (or Osiris), not Abraham on an altar. The Church’s own 2014 Gospel Topics essay states exactly this: “Latter-day Saint and non-Latter-day Saint Egyptologists agree that the characters on the fragments do not match the translation given in the book of Abraham.” This is not interpretation or faith, it is empirical: the physical documents exist, have been read using established Egyptology (post-Rosetta Stone methods verified on thousands of texts), and directly contradict Smith’s specific, testable claim about them. No redefinition (“catalyst theory,” missing scroll, etc.) erases the fact that the founder’s canonical claim about existing artifacts was false. A religion whose scripture is built on this demonstrated falsehood about its own foundational “translation” cannot be true. This single, document-based contradiction is irrefutable. Therefore, Mormonism, as founded on Joseph Smith’s prophetic authority and the authenticity of the Pearl of Great Price, is objectively false.

@CA_Blue_Print @InterpreterFnd Hundreds of people killed themselves the Heavens Gate cult and with Peoples Temple - facing death is frankly not convincing What is convincing is ancillary sources proving the voracity of the BOM when there is none. And don’t say the alter with NHM, that could mean many things

@UncommonYield @InterpreterFnd Then what was it that at least 19 people other than Joseph Smith saw, felt, and examined? 5 of whom became enemies to JS, left the church & STILL testified they saw the plates? One of those 5 had a gun held to his head & told to deny it or they’d blow his brains out & refused.

I never knew that X is such a cesspool of anti-Mormon hatred and bigotry. I understand the whole bearing testimony but I don't think there's any changing minds on here. The vitriol is unbelievable. Why do people hate me so much just because I believe in the Book of Mormon?
