Witnessing to Mormons: An Effective Approach Christians Can Use

The issue of priesthood and authority is a real issue in the minds of many Mormons.This video is based on my personal experience of talking with many many Mormon Missionaries over the years (since the early 1990's) regarding some effective ways that Christians can help the Mormon view authority differently and prepare the ground to make the way for a more effective witness to them.

Why can't you people all just get along? Mormons believe in Jesus too, the rest of the world is laughing at you and your petty inter-religious quarrels.

@lickhunt You see the deception the Mormon church has created is evident even in what you have written here. On the surface, Mormons give the impression that they are like any other Christian denomination but, when one peels back the outer wrapping, it is soon seen that they are actually so far removed from Christianity that it actually has more in common with occultism. Their Jesus (for example) is the product of sexual union between God and Mary, He 'became' a god, brother of Lucifer, etc.

Brigham Young quote- Is this Christian Doctrine? that no man or woman in this dispensation will ever enter into the celestial kingdom of God without the consent of Joseph Smith.

Quite sure Jesus Christ is enough without some clown named Joseph.

@GRANADA405 Regarding his comment, maybe it is a bit unfair, but I could see it being in some cases. Is this all you have a problem with though? Can you provide any examples of "points that he knows are just not the case", or are you just going to continue saying saying he's wrong? If he's misrepresenting the LDS faith, please provide an example rather than continuing to make blind accusations.

@betawind "Instantly in their mind they look at you as if you are right down there, I know they would never admit that...."

Shazooloo is amazing he can know what people are thinking!!!

The comment is unfair to say the least.

We will never agree on doctrine so there is no point in a discussion on You Tube.

However, Shaz is very subtle in the way he puts over some points that he knows are just not the case.

I look forward to seeing a video that talks about his belieff I live in hope.

@GRANADA405 What things are you talking about? Everything he has said in this video regarding the LDS religion is fact, and can be backed up with evidence. If he's wrong, tell us how.

[GRANADA405]

Shaz this video shames you. Very poor . You assume things for which you have no basis,.

[betawind]

@LDS4Life71 Can you provide an example? I would like to know exactly what he said that was a lie. Can you tell me that? As far as I can tell, everything in this video is true.

[eeikman]

@LDS4Life71 Well, if the god of the Bible really is a deified man, a created being, as Mormon doctrine teaches, I should convert the Hinduism since their god has always existed and is more powerful.

[betawind]

@LDS4Life71 What exactly has he said that is a lie?

[janiejones1943]

@Shazoolo Very well said..and true...
