LDS Refuted verse by verse

David Reed (long time cult expert reaching JW's) and John Farkas have furnished the Christian community a concise power-packed resource to help in reaching out to Mormons. If you ever wanted to share your faith to those trapped in the cultic grip of the LDS church, here is an important book to utilize. The authors explore the false doctrines of the LDS church and provide the answers from the Bible. Mormons Answered Verse by Verse is ideal to refute Mormons claims that: - Men can progress into gods and goddesses - God the Father is a physical man grown into a god - Jesus Christ is the sprit brother of Lucifer - LDS polytheism is real Reed and Frakas also supply a verse by verse refutation of Mormonism using the Book of Mormon. They teach you many simple but powerful techniques to help reach the LDS people. There are many more exhaustive studies available, but this is a necessary part of a tool-case for those who witness to cult members inasmuch as it instructs the reader verse by verse.

havent read, but

bottom line mormons, who do you say Jesus Christ is? because your salvation hinges on what you believe about Jesus Christ. My sister is married to a mormon, and i iknow somehwat of it. Peter said that Jesus is the Son of the Living God, do you have any idea what that means? let me ask you, what does the very first commandment say? well, if thats true, and John 1 is true, then who is Jesus Christ? hope this helps.

Excellent reference

This book is VERY useful in order to be prepared for what Bible verses (as well as Book of Mormon verses!) Mormons will use to try to convince you of their doctrine. It will prepare you to answer Mormon challenges to the Bible and to standard Christianity beliefs. I've read this book cover-to-cover and it's an excellent reference.Books like this ARE necessary for those not extremely familiar with the Bible (such as myself) because Mormons don't tell you about everything they believe. They tell you the parts that sound like Christian teachings. Not until way down the road do you learn that they think that their god was a guy like us living on a planet like us that transcended into a "higher being." Their god had a literal sexual union with Mary to produce Jesus. They tell you this only after they get you to believe that Mormonism is the only true Church, so then you must believe all the stuff that follows.THIS is precisely why we must be prepared to witness to Mormons when the come to us. And be prepared properly to do so. They are very prepared to witness to US. This book is very specific and was written by an ex-Mormon and an ex-Jehovah's Witness who are knowledgeable on the subject.I have at least 6 books about Mormonism and every one (including this one) says that Mormons are wonderful and sincere people. There is no hate taught here. Judge for yourself about their doctrine, but you must be informed before you can! By talking with Mormons, you will never get the whole story. They only show the comfortable side. This book is a GREAT start towards more complete knowledge about them.

A great resource in equiping a true believer

After studying the true word of God in the Bible, this book was outstanding in showing how the LDS will twist scripture to teach unBiblical doctrine. Mormonism teaches that God was once a man, you can become a God yourself, and Jesus was the brother of Satan (all unBiblical).This book allows the reader to understand how many trained missionaries and other well educated Mormons will use Bible passages to try to convince Christians that they have the truth. By marking your Bible after reading this book, you will be much more equipped to share the truth in love with Mormons. In addition, you learn the truth of the Bible in a new and deeper way as a bonus!

need to read

This book is very good to read. It lets the reader see how cults take scripture from the bible and take it out of context. Christ came and died on the cross to save us from our sins, because there is none righteous. Its so amazing that God loved us so much that he would die for us. If you want to sincerly know Christ you need to investigate. As a christian I do not follow blindly my leaders, I study the bible and research what they say for myself, and so should mormons. Mormons why are you so afraid of books that reveal truths about the lds past? If you confess with your mouth and believe in your heart you will be saved. No where in the King James bible does it talk about " the burning of the bosoom".
