We talked about Joseph Smith’s false prophecies, and how he said that Jesus would return in 1891, which never happened. How, he said that New Jerusalem would be built and dedicated by his hand, which never happened.
A big reason why Mormons are unsaved is because of their beliefs in a false atonement. This one belief is damning them to hell.
Before you get the Mormon discussions, let me help you understand how these beliefs are false according to the Bible.
There are many reasons why people should not read the Book of Mormon. #1, it teaches a false atonement…
Mormon Teachings are in opposition with the Bible Teachings. This is obvious when we see the teachings side by side.
The Mormon missionaries are coming after our Christian families. As they come knocking our doors, we need to be on our toes.
Romans 5 :6-9 (KJV)
6 For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.
7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good...
Jesus came into this world to save us from our sins. This act of love took place the moment He was raised up on the cross at Calvary.
Romans 5 :12 (KJV)
12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned.
We believe that men will be punished for their own sins, and not for Adam’s transgression.
Mormons believe that God’s one true church is with them and not in churches of Christianity. This is what the devil would want people to think.
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.
Romans 5 :10,11 (KJV)
10 For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.
11 And...
Mormons teach that Jesus’s atonement started in Gethsemane and ended on the cross, putting the emphasis on the garden.
The gospel message is that Jesus died for our sins, was buried, and then rose from the grave. It does not include Gethsemene.
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.
Atonement was made through Jesus’s death. Don’t listen to anyone that says it was made anywhere else but the cross.
Romans 5 :6-11 (KJV)
6 For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.
7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good...
Jesus came into the world and died for sins on the cross. This is where the blood atonement was made for us.
Romans 5 :8-11 (KJV)
8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall...
Before Jesus died for our sins an animal blood atonement was necessary when people sinned. He ended this on the cross.
Romans 5 :1,2 (KJV)
1 Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:
2 By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand,...
Romans 5:6-10 (KJV)
6 For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.
7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die.
8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.
10 For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.
It is through Jesus Christ, our Lord, that we can be saved. Through our faith in Him, we are justified through His blood.
Romans 5:19-21 (KJV)
19 For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.
20 Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound:
21 That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.
God desires us to find true happiness in life, where righteousness abounds. Not the life of a sinner, who only dwells in darkness.
Come humbly before God in prayer. Confess your sins and lay your addictions at the feet of Jesus. Admit that you are a sinner and need a Savior.
Every day the Lord beckons us to follow Him. If we just let Him in our lives, the Holy Spirit will declare His great love to our hearts.
