God bless.

Mormons, what do you do with these Bible verses that demonstrate that people are not children of God in their natural state, but children of the devil, and must be ‘adopted’ by accepting the biblical Gospel in order to be considered a child of God?
- You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and has nothing to do with the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks out of his own character, for he is a liar and the father of lies. (John 8:44)
- By this it is evident who are the children of God, and who are the children of the devil: whoever does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor is the one who does not love his brother. (1 John 3:10)
- He predestined us for adoption as sons through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of his will, (Ephesians 1:5)
- But to all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God, (John 1:12)
- As for you, you were dead in your transgressions and sins, in which you used to live when you followed the ways of this world and of the ruler of the kingdom of the air, the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobedient. All of us also lived among them at one time, gratifying the cravings of our sinful nature and following its desires and thoughts. Like the rest, we were by nature objects of wrath. (Ephesians 2:1-3)

— Bill McKeever in response to the Mormon Church claiming to be Christian.
Mormons teach things that are directly contrary to Christian scriptures. They teach that Jesus is not God but is “a” God. They teach that there are many Gods. They teach that Satan and Christ are both our spirit brothers. And yet, teaching these things, they try to claim “Mormons are Christians…

Anonymous asked: As I read through your questions, I find a few things that you are extremely uneducated on. In one question, you said the Bible was translated very correctly. Actually that is false. Throughout much of the Old Testament, there are hundreds of errors in the translation. So the Bible is not error free. In fact, it is far from it. In the original Hebrew script, there are hundreds of similarities between the Gospel of our fathers Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob and the Mormon church.

The guy in this video does a much better job of articulating answers to your concerns than I could ever do to save my life.
Now that we established the accuracy of the Bible, can we talk about some of the many 4,000 changes to the Book of Mormon?
Matt Slick from CARM interviews a Mormon on the streets of the 2012 Mormon Miracle Pageant.
Watch them debate on the topics of God, Salvation, Jesus and Joseph Smith.
Very sadly, despite being given factual evidences, this young gentleman refuses to listen and continues to stick his head in the sand.
Watch him and his father not coming even close to winning an argument against the apologist, Matt Slick. Let’s all pray for this man and his family that they will come to know the truth found in the Bible!

Anonymous asked: Hm, I think I understand but like, when he originally mentioned being mormon, he said it was a load of rubbish..I personally would consider him as atheist but then again, I am very confused about the whole situation. Also, sorry for being a bother, but could you try and explain what a missionary is?
No bother at all!
I’m assuming you’re asking what a Mormon missionary is?
They’re young men generally aged 19-21(sometimes females 21 and up and retired elderly couples) who are sent out by the LDS church to different parts of the world to spead the LDS gospel.
I’m not too familiar with the process, but when they turn 19 or so, they send in a missionary application. After pending, and by recommendation they receive a letter package from the Church headquarters in SLC. The package includes their mission assignment and MTC reporting date.
The date indicates when they’re to report to the Missionary Training Centre(MTC) in Provo. Basically—it’s spiritual bootcamp. They are put to rigorous training where they will learn about and study the LDS gospel. Those who are assigned a language speaking mission will have to learn to preach the gospel in that particular language.
The missionaries typically stay in the MTC for about 6 weeks - 3 months depending on if you are learning a new language.
Once their training is complete, they head out to wherever they are assigned and will serve there until their two years is up.
During the mission, they will follow a very strict set of rules. (You can read about them online) Basically, every missionary’s primary goal is to find people who are willing to listen to their message and get them baptized into the church.
——————————————————————————————-
In areas with a large Mormon concentration like Utah or Idaho, serving a mission is pretty much expected from you.
If you talk to Mormon woman, especially those who are serious about progressing in their faith—will not marry a guy unless he’s a returned missionary. Also within the Mormon culture, if you don’t serve a mission your level of respect won’t be as high as those who did.
Hello there! I'm Monica, admin of this blog, dedicated to all things refuting-Mormonism. I have an immense love for the LDS people! I started this wanting to provide the LDS folks here on tumblr, facts and evidence in regards to my stance, as well as to point out the errors and flaws in the Mormon religion. I pray that this blog will be used in a manner that will plant seeds of doubt and through their questioning, they'll come to know the truth found in the bible and have that saving relationship with Jesus Christ. Please don't hesitate to send me any questions or concerns you have regarding Mormonism and I will try my best to answer them. I can promise you that all questions will be answered privately.
So far, I've received tons of hate mail, questions/concerns as well as encouraging words from my brothers and Sisters in Christ.
Nonetheless, I thoroughly enjoy reading and answering all the messages I receive.
To God Be the Glory.
Jesus Christ is Lord.
