If Joseph Smith was a fraud, you still have to explain the Book of Mormon, the doctrine, the witnesses, the fruit, and the staying power.

@GuyInco15542744 Exactly. If the sinless Son of God said it was necessary to fulfill all righteousness, the optional talk falls apart fast.

@MattTestifies The one perfect man who ever lived needed baptism to fulfill all righteousness it apparently none of us do

Baptism is apparently optional now, which is news to Jesus Christ.

***last time I’m sharing this terrible video*** Domestic violence does not care about sex, age, religion, or reputation. It can happen anywhere to anyone. I lived in an abusive relationship for 15 years, and I need people to hear this clearly. Please do not suffer in silence. There is hope, and there is life on the other side of it. #EndTheStigma

@baldguy_58 They can sneer at it. They still cannot account for it.

@MattTestifies They can't, Matt.

If Joseph Smith was a fraud, you still have to explain the Book of Mormon, the doctrine, the witnesses, the fruit, and the staying power.

@LatterDayDrPepr @Bless_ThisMess7 That’s beautifully said. The real story is not glamour. It’s consecration.

I was telling a coworker - I can assure you… the real, real lives of Mormon wives isn’t nearly that interesting. There are quiet acts of service that go on each day only known to the server and the servee (sometimes not even to them, because it’s anonymous). No fanfare, no glamour, just as Christ would have it done.

The world keeps handing us fake Mormonism for clicks. My religion is not chaos, clout, and cameras. It’s repentance, priesthood, covenants, and Jesus Christ. That contrast matters more than ever right now.

@RealitySteve Probably for the best. That franchise has been running on fumes, lip filler, and unresolved trauma for a while.

It’s official. The “Bachelorette” has been cancelled this season. tmz.com/2026/03/19/abc…

@Latterdaytruth @RealitySteve It's my complete and utter understanding and ownership of the algo.

@MattTestifies @RealitySteve I just see you under some of these big posts! Maybe it’s just because I follow you so I see it

(BACHELORETTE UPDATE): After the release of today’s DV video from 2023 of Taylor Frankie Paul, this isn’t 100% confirmed, but I’m hearing now there’s a strong possibility ABC is going to scrap the Bachelorette season and not air it. This video getting out has changed things.

@Latterdaytruth @RealitySteve What do you mean, my guy?

@MattTestifies @RealitySteve How do you find these so fast hahaha

@Zachary__Keller We can all hope!

@MattTestifies Could this be the death of that 💩 show?!

If the roles were reversed, this would already be over.

@ZelTheGreatLDS Boom indeed. The fruit is not the only thing, but it is not a small thing either.

@MattTestifies Fruits baby. Boom.

@BaronPhoenix70 Exactly. A lot of people act like calling him a liar settles everything, when it really just opens five harder questions.

@MattTestifies In particular, the impossibility of a 20-something frontier farm boy with a 3rd grade education creating it. Hell, I'm a 66-year-old college grad with 30 years' experience as a writer & 50 years as an active, preaching Christian minister, and I couldn't come close.

@LaurenBairDW @madelineefry Real LDS member here. That show is not my faith. My religion is Jesus Christ, repentance, covenants, ordinances, and discipleship. Not every Utah mess with Mormon branding speaks for us.

Looking for real Mormon/LDS members for opinions on “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives!” DM or reply below. We’d love to hear from you!

@BillyM2k Bold of you to assume the filter would leave much behind.

instead of filtering by country, i would like to filter replies by user iq

@Dec_16_1773 That is the pattern. Skip the substance, repeat the trope, act like the case is closed.

@MattTestifies Nah… they won’t do that. They’ll just make the same, tired old tropes…

@Luke_neilson15 💯💯💯

@MattTestifies ABC needs to cancel this season (and honestly the show).

@HeidiWhitaker Amazing how fast standards change depending on who is accused.

@MattTestifies Excellent point!

@lafe_the_harris Yes. Not sentimental kindness, but real charity. The kind that sees clearly and still loves.

@MattTestifies Charity.

What Christlike attribute do you think is missing most from the world right now? Charity. Humility. Patience. Mercy. Meekness. Forgiveness.
