Conflict between Mormon and Biblical teachings

@Suzianne

Brava? For what? All she said was yes that is true but I am not going to admit it because it would show you are right.

Brava for speaking plainly about you and your motives and thus declining to engage. It's strange that you could not discern that that was why Suzianne said "Brava".

@FMF

So she is a mind reader? As are you? Wow, you can judge the motives of another person's heart. Looks like lots of social liberals have that mind reading and heart reading ability.

You are really a piece of work.

After thinking about it, it is not mind reading, it is making accusations in an attempt to be a forum bully. The other forum bullies give bravas.

Yes. It's not difficult. Even hakima, who's not yet posted much, is nevertheless also able to read you like a book.

You appear to be making accusations yourself.

@FMF

Just recognizing how you work.

Be a good enough Mormon and you too can become a God and get your wife eternally pregnant to populate your universe with souls.

That is another difference between what Mormons believe and traditional Christians. The belief that we can be like God is the same lie told to Eve by the serpent.

The Bible does not teach that men can become Gods. So this too is a conflict..

According to the Mormon prophet Brigham Young people on the moon dress like pilgrims and people live on the surface of the sun. Since they follow the Abrahamic model for prophets it must be true since prophets do not lie.
Any other Christians here believe that ?

Mormons have a different point of view about prophets. Mormon prophets reveal what God decides Mormons are ready to hear.

At one time Mormons taught that black people chose to side with Satan before they were born. If a black person was to become a Mormon then the black person would become white. Of course new revelations have changed this doctrine.

I am not sure if Mormons believe their teachings are actually true. Their teachings are only what God wants them to believe at that time.

Mormon holy documents are written in erasable ink.

No, no you have it wrong.
Until the 1970's a black Mormon man couldn't hold the title of priesthood but still could be Mormons. Kind of strange since all Mormon males are entitled to priesthood.
You have to read the Book of Mormon to see that god punished some white people by making them black.

2 Nephi 30:6 originally stated blacks would become white and delightful

Can you provide the evidence to support this claim please? I’d be interested in reading it.

Here is a full article

For much of its history, the Salt Lake City-based LDS Church edition of the Book of Mormon taught that dark-skinned Lamanites (Indians) would eventually experience a change in the color of their skin should they embrace the Book of Mormon. Except for a single edition (1840), 2 Nephi 30:6 has read:

“…their scales of darkness shall begin to fall from their eyes; and many generations shall not pass away among them, save they shall be a white and a delightsome people.”

Thanks.

So the Book of Mormon was written by someone with deeply disturbing racist tendencies. Interesting.

What’s your next move?
