Your welcome Indie,
Sometimes, more often than not, I find it very difficult to fellowship with very knowledgeable and "churched" Christians. I have found that those in the LRC are the most difficult to fellowship with.
For instance, they talk the same especially when they read scriptures, messages or footnotes. And how about the way they call on the Lord together. Do they really they believe there is something special, even magical in their tone?
They think that is how they are walking/talking "in spirit".
Like Mormons, the LCrs, prefer Lee's writings to the Word of God. They tely on the footnotes and life dtdy messages or the morning revivals
The Mormons did not even bother to explain what is in the book of Mormon. They simply wanted you to believe Joseph Smith was/is "the prophet" to whom God revealed himself to not to join a church but to start a "new" one. The "elders" had memorized their schpeel. But they had nothing over the --Sword of the Spirit, which is the Living Word of God. God gets all the Glory and Praise.
They believe Jesus is "a god" NOT GOD and Lucifer is his brother. I very kindly with much Patience referred them to Isaiah 9:6 and John chapter 1..
In the KJ which is the only bible translation they use.
Only once did I challenge them. They said something like this: If you ask God to tell you if Joseph Smith is/was a true prophet who was given the book of Mormon, he will tell you it is!". I then asked, and if He says No, it is not. ?????
They were stumped and changed lanes right away with a light hearted joke. I was not out to pulverize them though I sure wanted to!!!! I knew they need to sense the pure Love of God. They needed to see some of us truly have an intimate relationship with our Creator. That we KNOW Him. They need to see they do not have one and desire to have a relationship with the True Messiah.
Now if I have a choice of having a discussion with Mormons or LCrs, I choose Mormons hands down!!! :-D
Blessings Indie and everyone!!
