The Mormons Are in Town

June 30, 2022

by Wayne S. Walker Not too long ago when I was taking a walk in the large park which is across the street from our house and had sat down for a moment to rest on one of the benches, I was approached by two nice-looking, clean-cut young men in white shirts, ties, and dress…

Quran and Book of Mormon

February 17, 2022

by Terry Wane Benton These books or the people peddling them as books of God are way too late to be considered as equal to the Bible as inspired books of God. Jesus told His apostles that they would be guided by the Spirit into all truth (John 16:13). All truth from God was therefore…

Did some prophecies in the Bible go unfulfilled?

February 14, 2017

Question: Hi! We live in a predominately LDS community. After six years we have had our first missionaries visit. We have asked them to come back and study, so I have been prepping.

How do I treat false teachers, like the Mormons?

June 4, 2016

Question: God teaches us so much through His Word, but I have a question that cannot be easily answered.
