I'm not Mormon and I take sacrament at their church from time to time. Its all just a human made convention anyway. Every man believe what he may...Ah, but I love this man's book, great stuff, great guy.
I am so thankful for the Mormon people who have the courage to confront and communicate historical truths of the Mormon Church. They win my respect for engaging the honest facts. I am a former Mormon and now Christian. Access to historical information about the founding prophets of the LDS Church has been instrumental in leading me to Jesus and the truth found in the Bible.
JESUS AND THE TRUE LOVE OF CHRIST PLUS HONESTY ARE ALL MISSING FROM ALL VERSIONS OF MORMONISM. OVER 150 CHURCHES BROKE OFF THE MORMON CHURCH. LDS IS A APOSTATE CHURCH FROM JOSEPH SMITH'S CHURCH. MORMONS NEED TO READ ALL CHURCH HISTORY TO KNOW IT IN'T TRUE.
Brother Palmer, my heart goes out to you. It took me 14 years to totally come out of Mormonism. It was a painful and fearful process. Christ did not come to establish an church, but to establish a kingdom. The New Testament word translated as "church" is ecclesia, meaning gathering or community. Please seek a Torah based, kingdom based church, or go to Calvary Chapel for verse by verse studies. May the Lord bless you and keep you. May he make his face to shine upon you and give you peace.
Mormons, please stop being hypocritical by posting disapproval comments on this video. That's very shallow. By attending services you still condone the action that was taken against Grant!
The only one and true Teaching or Religion is to be a Christian. Every other Religion is false in my eyes. Jehovah's Witnesses, Mormons, Catholics, and all the other Christion Religions are based on the tru teachings. The problem arises when man starts to organize these teachings and the polotics come into play and then you have nothing but a man made organization that tries to implicate there beleifs and interpetations of what they think is right. The emphasis on the word THEY.
that is typical of mormonism though....they will smile at you talk with you, and behind your back they will discredit, they will assassinate your name, and in the same breath they call themselves Christian. Pardon my lower case mormonism because I truly do not believe the mormon faith should be recognized in the proper manner.
I agree, it is very difficult to talk, teach, preach, the Prophephsy of Jesus Christ at any Church reguardless of Denomination, I have brought up the SUBJECT MATTER at LDS Church and Christian Churcehs as well, I have been told to stay in my lane that is why we our having young women in the LDS and other Churches are entering the ADULT FILM INDUSTRY, WE NEED TO FOLLOW THE WORD OF GOD.
we are in the great dispensation of the End Times, Jesus said New Testament be watchful when your children shall wander astray this is happening in every major Church, including every religion and denomination because most churches removed the Name and the Doctrine of Jesus in the last 50 years this is because we are in the midst in Spiritual Warfare Jesus is Coming and His Glory shall be seen in the Clouds
ILL SAY IT FOR YOU...JOE SMITH AND MORONI COME FIRST IN THIS BULLSHIT CHURCH AND OUR CREATER OF ALL THINGS 'GOD' AND THIS BELOVED SON 'JESUS CHIRST' COME 2ND...AND THAT IS THE TRUTH IN LDS!!!!!
I like Grant Palmer. He tries to be honest even if it means challenging things that cause discomfort within Mormonism. His heart is in the right place and if the LDS Church once to be truly Christian, they will have to change course despite the negative consequences that will occur (like with the Worldwide Church of God).
The mormons you know are good people are you nuts????? If you knew the reasons why one of my uncles who is a DA in slc utah has to prosecute and arrest them then you would be singing a different tune about them.. they are not what they appear and they use lies,deciet and trickery to try and fool people
It sounds like Mr. Palmer still thinks Joseph Smith is a true prophet. He wants more of Jesus in a church that is Joseph Smith based? Doubtful if that will ever happen, and even if it does, it will be the fraudulent Joseph Smith version of Jesus, not the real Jesus Christ.
"President Smith then stated that the meeting had been called, because God had commanded it; and it was made known to him by vision and by the Holy Spirit. . . . it was the will of God that they should be ordained to the ministry and go forth to prune the vineyard for the last time, for the coming of the Lord, which was nigh — even fifty six years should wind up the scene."(History of the Church, Vol. 2, page 182) FLDS/LDS Prophet Joseph Smith in 1835 The fifty-six years were passed by 1891
Very nice indeed, I'm LDS. Thank you for this, very simple. I think this should be brought up to the elder's of my church. I will do my part, I will never deny my membership. They will have to kick me out, if they wont clarify to this. I will post whatever response they give to me, anyone else can respond in kind. This is a great work. Thank you
Again, I agree that Jesus Christ is the center of the sacrament, not the church, not Joseph Smith, so Grant being prevented from taking the sacrament is neither good nor right. Their decision is conditioned upon their regard for Joseph Smith rather than Jesus Christ. It is church-egocentric rather than Christocentric.
"The Sacrament subordinates Jesus to Joseph Smith"
How on earth could he come up with such a ridiculous statement? The sacrament is centred on Jesus Christ: we do it in remembrance of Jesus Christ.
I respect that Grant has different views than myself, but such statements above clearly show a slant towards saying anything to prove his point: a common tact of many anti-Mormons.
Not allowing Grant to take the sacrament because of what he believes about Joseph Smith is in his case indeed an attempt to subordinate Jesus to JS, as Grant is a true disciple of Jesus Christ. Such is so also with other courageous Truth-tellers whom the paranoid, public relations puppets of the prophet pawn BS (JS) would not tolerate. And why is LDS symbolizing the precious shed blood of Jesus with water rather than wine? This is yet one more blatant example of not enduring sound doctrine.
There is no logic to your argument: if Grant has come to believe that the LDS church is no longer of God, then the sacrament would not have ay meaning to him anyways.
Again, Jesus Christ is the centre of the sacrament: no one else. All other comments to the contrary are really, really ridiculous, far reaching and yet another vain attempt by apostates to discredit something that is solely focused on Christ.
Precisely, because Jesus is the center of the sacrament. That Grant disbelieves the claims of Joseph Smith & yet is prevented from taking the sacrament vaunts Joseph Smith above Jesus Christ. The church has made the sacrament subordinate to Joseph Smith rather than Jesus Christ.
@djwright44 "The Sacrament subordinates Jesus to Joseph Smith"
In short, because if you dont have a testimony of Joseph Smith (Which is asked of you by the Bishop) Then they can stop you from taking the sacrament (Which is directly connected to Jesus Christ) so thats why he says that. Hope that helps :)
Remove the priesthood, forced reverence and Kings English in prayer.
Give a guy some power, and *POW*, he will create fictional stories, "like Joseph S. & Paul H.". He will brag about his magic suit that never burns. Reverence can be a funny thing. Does God need everything quiet when false prophets & apostles show up? Old style English is manditory in lds church prayer. Does this promote a personal relationship with God? Does God talk like this?
20 lessons out of 192 on Jesus the rest on the so called modern day prophets, that says it all. "...Honour the man" as faithful LDS sing (and that's not Jesus by the by).
Grant, I really appreciate your honesty. My dad is just like you, a true believer in Christ, and in Mormonism, however through the years he would say as well "I'd like to see more emphasis on Christ". I agreed.
I have now left the church. I was born into it, went on a mission, and maybe I'm a bit further out than you, but I do feel for you and your journey through this. It hurts so much to be "diciplined" for having and using your brain to actually think.

As more and more Mormons seek the Jesus of the Bible, and as God supports and encourages them, the LDS church will slowly fail.
The LDS church is a huge organization so it will linger for decades or at least until Christ returns, something which I don't think is decades away.
The Mormons I have known were good people and I know that God won't let them hang out in the wind without His mighty hand to lift them up.
God bless all Mormons who are seeking the truth, God will find a way.
