Questions to Ask Your Mormon Friend: Effective Ways to Challenge a Mormon's Arguments Without Being Offensive

By Bill McKeever, Eric Johnson, Eric Johnson

Fifteen Effective Questions to Help a Mormon Seriously Examine His FaithIn 1853 the Mormon Apostle Orson Pratt issued the challenge: " - convince us of our errors of doctrine, if we have any, by reason, by logical arguments, or by the word of God, and we will be ever grateful for the information."Many Christians have stated that they would challenge Mormon acquaintances about their theology if they knew what to say. From their in-depth research of Mormonism, Bill McKeever and Eric Johnson have compiled fifteen questions that Christians can ask latter-day Saints to help them seriously examine their faith. In a user-friendly manner, it provides simple, straightforward arguments that lay-Christians can easily access.Also included is a dictionary of the Mormon language. This helps the reader better understand Mormon terminology and shows how it is different from similar words used by Christians. This description may be from another edition of this product.

Best Book Ever

I was very happy to see actually Christians standing up for our Christian Jesus . I have a brother that is a Mormon and was a Catholic. All he does is defend the Mormons . He is so far in the sect that I have asked Jesus to pull him and his family back to the Catholic Faith. Please pray for him and his family. Thank you again .

Hearing but never percieving...

I would recommend this book along with Mormonism 101 by Mckeever and Johnson for a good intro to mormon theology. It seems that every time I look up a book on Mormonism that doesn't praise it, I find reviews from angry mormons. I can understand not agreeing with the authors viewpoints and his conclusions and presenting those of your own; but they write reviews doing the same thing they accuse others of doing. The authors of...

I'm not sure I would like this book if it were written in a vindictive way. But, thankfully Bill McKeever and Eric Johnson did it lovingly and with respect! This is a challenging book that questions the assumption that the Latter Day Saint Church has every spiritual answer. It details some of the problems that are seen within the Latter Day Saints very own history. Some of the problems detailed are: the "First Vision" of...

Great Questions, Great Logic

This book contains 15 great questions for opening conversation between Mormons and non-Mormons. For example, the first chapter, "If I Accept You as a Christian, Will You Accept Me as a Mormon?" addresses one of the most common objections Mormons articulate to their critics ("Mormons are Christians!") and does so in a very sensible manner. Chapter 2, "Which First Vision Account Should We Believe?" takes a look at the very foundation...

A thought-provoking book, stimulating for conversation.

I've used the questions in this book with some of my Mormon friends, and I must say the answers given in return seem to be quite confused. I'm not sure if many Mormons have ever thought through their faith, but this book does a good job to ask a good question and begin a topic of conversation that does not jump around from issue to issue. I especially like the wonderful appendix where terms are defined. The word "Jesus" even...
