A BLESSED NEW YEAR TO ONE AND ALL!!
Please keep in your prayers the Chinese kids that will come our way this year. Our prayer is that they will be open to the Gospel.
Also keep in your prayers the Mormon Missionaries we have met with and encountered over the past few months. We encountered some Mormon Missionaries at Cal State Fullerton. They did not like the tracts we had on our table exposing the beliefs of the Mormon Church. I said I will remove our tracts about the Mormon Church if you remove the Book of Mormon from your table. They asked why. The Book of Mormon says my church belongs to the devil.
“9 And it came to pass that he said unto me: Look, and behold that great and abominable church, which is the mother of abominations, whose founder is the devil.
10 And he said unto me: Behold there are save two churches only; the one is the church of the Lamb of God, and the other is the church of the devil; wherefore, whoso belongeth not to the church of the Lamb of God belongeth to that great church, which is the mother of abominations; and she is the whore of all the earth.” (1)
Also I suggested they also not promote another one of their scriptures called The Pearl of Great Price. Again they asked why. Your prophet said:
“18 My object in going to inquire of the Lord was to know which of all the sects was right, that I might know which to join. No sooner, therefore, did I get possession of myself, so as to be able to speak, than I asked the Personages who stood above me in the light, which of all the sects was right (for at this time it had never entered into my heart that all were wrong)—and which I should join.
19 I was answered that I must join none of them, for they were all wrong; and the Personage who addressed me said that all their creeds were an abomination in his sight; that those professors were all corrupt; that: ‘they draw near to me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me, they teach for doctrines the commandments of men, having a form of godliness, but they deny the power thereof.’” (2)
“Where do the Mormons get the idea that Jesus was married to Mary, Martha, and the other Mary, and that He had children while He was on earth?
This is a debatable issue for modern Mormons. The belief that Jesus was married, was a polygamist, and had children through his wives was a well-accepted teaching by 19th Century Mormons. The quote most often read comes from Mormon Apostle Orson Hyde, ‘I said in my lecture on Marriage, at our last conference, that Jesus Christ was married at Cana of Galilee, that Mary, Martha, and others were his wives, and that he begot children’ (Journal of Discourses, 2:210). Mr. Hyde is refuted by the very passage he makes reference, John 2:1, the wedding feast of Cana. Here, we see that Jesus and His disciples were “invited” to the wedding. This refutes the idea that He was the groom.” (3)
