If you’ve ever wondered why Mormons believe in three kingdoms in heaven, it comes from 1 Corinthians 15:40.
The moment you enter through the LDS temple doors, you are taking away God’s judgments and making yourself a God.
Mormons think their temples are helping them and dead people. What they don’t realize is this is Satan’s playground, and nothing from God.
In the early church, it was never taught to do baptisms for the dead, perform marriage sealings, and ordain people to the priesthood.
To grasp the meaning of 1 Corinthians 15:29, let’s fist examine the context of this chapter. As you read above, there were apostates among the brethren that didn’t believe in the resurrection of the dead.
There are no second chances in the afterlife, and 1 Corinthians 15:29 does not refer to people in the church doing baptisms for the dead.
The verse that Mormons take out of context in the Bible, more than any other, comes in 1 Corinthians 15, verse 29.
What Mormons don’t realize is 1 Corinthians 15 is talking about earthly bodies and heavenly bodies, not kingdoms in heaven.
Mormon Teachings are in opposition with the Bible Teachings. This is obvious when we see the teachings side by side.
The validity of the Book of Mormon is challenged by checking out three pieces of plagiarism when compared to the Bible.
The second covenant that Mormons make, while in the endowment sessions of their temples, is called “the Law of the Gospel”.
We believe that men will be punished for their own sins, and not for Adam’s transgression.
1 Corinthians 15:45 (KJV)
45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.
Modern-day revelations in Mormonism are not of God but man-made ideas over the space and time of this cult.
Mormonism differs with Christianity in so many ways. They even disagree with core Christian doctrines.
What is the gospel message? Repeat after me… Jesus died for our sins, was buried, and then rose from the grave.
1 Corinthians 15:31-33 (KJV) 31 I protest by your rejoicing which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily. 32 If after the manner of men I have fought with beasts at Ephesus, what advantageth it me, if the dead rise not? let us eat and drink; for to morrow we die. 33
It is so important that we die daily for the Lord. This means to look at ourselves in the mirror and confess our sins before God
1 Corinthians 15:31 (KJV)
31 I protest by your rejoicing which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.
If baptisms for the dead was performed by church leaders in the past, then these writings would be available to Christians today.
The Book of Mormon teaches a false gospel. It teaches that Jesus paid for our sins while in the garden, not simply on the cross.
When it comes to God’s true witnesses, the Lord has never stopped sending them out into all the world.
The true gospel message is that Jesus died for our sins on the cross, was buried, and then rose from the grave.
1 Corinthians 15:57,58 (KJV)
57 But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.
We are called to be steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the works of the Lord. This is the life of a Christian.
Jesus came into the world and died for sins on the cross. This is where the blood atonement was made for us.
1 Corinthians 15:29-31 (KJV)
29 Else what shall they do which are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not at all? why are they then baptized for the dead?
30 And why stand we in jeopardy every hour?
31 I protest by your rejoicing which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.
In death, there are no second chances of going to heaven. If a person goes to hell, they will also go to the lake of fire.
It is important to know the truths of the gospel message in order to not believe in a false gospel unknowingly.
1 Corinthians 15:3-7 (KJV)
3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
5 And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve:
6 After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep.
7 After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles.
Jesus died for our sins, was buried, and then rose from the grave. This is vital to understand and know as a Christian.
