Fifth Generation Mormon Comes TO Christ
I was a Utah-born-and-raised, 5th generation Mormon. One of my ancestors helped wire the Salt Lake City Temple for electricity. My grandparents were close friends of President Thomas Monson. My parents are BYU alumni, my father is employed by the LDS Church, and the majority of my relatives have served missions, had high callings in their wards, and are devout Mormons. So why am I writing for a newsletter that my family would call “anti-Mormon”? They would say it’s because I’ve always been a rebel, the black sheep of the family. They...
read moreEx-Mormons, Priesthood, And The Book Of Hebrews
When working with people who have left the Mormon church, one of the biggest issues for them to work through is that of God’s priesthood. The Mormon church does a superb job of teaching its members about their two divisions of the priesthood, the Aaronic and Melchizedek priesthoods. They claim that the priesthood is the authority to act for God on the earth. (Gospel Principles, p. 81) They assert that in order for any church to be led of God, they must hold this priesthood in order to perform any ordinances properly. Of course, they also...

Our recent trip to Manti, Utah (discussed in the last newsletter) was an incredibly exciting, faith-strengthening experience. One of our goals was to become better acquainted with Chip Thompson, Pastor of Ephraim Church of the Bible (ECB). The town of Ephraim is five miles north of Manti. Every morning ECB hosted a two hour training session for the believers who came to witness at the Mormon Miracle Pageant. We conducted an interview with Chip and discussed various topics that we thought would interest and inspire our readers. Chip was raised...

On June 24th, 2001 the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS) announced that they would be building a temple here in San Antonio, TX. As the construction nears completion, many people are questioning what the large building in the Stone Oak area is and what it is about. Temples were an important part of Judaism, and the New Testament mentions Christians being in temples, but an examination of the biblical role of the temple reveals some surprising facts when compared with the role of the LDS temple. In Mormonism, temples are not...
read moreMormonism is not a Denomination of Christianity
It would be hard to find an American who has not seen one of the commercials presented by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, also known as the LDS Church or simply as “the Mormons.” These carefully crafted commercials portray a clean, wholesome, and family oriented religion with the intention of creating the belief that Mormonism is a Christian denomination. Although The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints claims to be the only true and living Church, it cannot be considered a denomination of Christianity. The world...
read moreApostasy And Restoration
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints claims that they are a restoration of Christ’s original Church and not just another denomination of Christianity. All other so-called “Christian Churches” are said to be in apostasy. On page 14 of a 1983 booklet titled, Apostasy And Restoration, the corporation of the President of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints states, “As Latter-day Saints, we testify that shortly after the death of the Lord’s original twelve apostles, there came seventeen hundred years of apostasy and...
