Good content, bro. I was in that same convo with an elder and his disciple. I was approx 1yr in Christ, Born again, when I was confronted by a supposed friend and his mormon visting friends. 1 Corinthians scripture was their attack verse and we went from there to discuss much more for an hr or so. After it was was all said n done, that "elder" cussed me out leaving from our convo terribly upset bec By God's grace, I almost had won over and brought to Christ his apprenticed disciple next to him. My acquaintance said he had never seen them like that. I ended up taking him to church that night and now he's a pastor at a nearby church in his hometown. What started off as a trap by the devil, God turned it for the good and His glory!
Praise jesus! Any advice? Lots of patience was involved I'm sure.
That's awesome! To God be the glory!
@@friendlyfire7509 look up Jeff Durbin of Apologia Studios. (Apologia Church) He does alot of preaching outside the temple in Tempe AZ and posts his encounters on youtube. He is a pastor and a really good speaker who knows the word. I've learned alot from him!
God is Amazing!
Praise God🙌
I was raised a Mormon , so I’m glad you stopped him from using mind stopping technique that they are taught at a young age to do, you really are working with the Holy Spirit God bless you brother ( I’m saved now and running with Lord now for five years on)
I pray and cover this video in the blood of Jesus that ( there ) lawyers will have no powers against you at all and may it reach so many to help open there eyes in Jesus name amen🙏🏼🙌🏼
Love ❤️
What’s the mind stopping technique ? Never heard of something like that, Is it a tactic Mormons use to evangelize
@@Laurel.m_ak it’s not just with mormons , it can be with anything for anyone, so for example in Mormonism we were trained that if someone starts talking about Joseph smith in a not a good way start sharing your testimony about the Book of Mormon . What this does it shuts down the convo so you don’t hear the convo , it what people do to stay plugged in the matrix as to not think for themselves be challenged in there way of think or deconstruct there faith to see is it on a firm foundation can you challange it with scrutiny and it still stand. It’s like an NPC. Hope that helps
Watching this now...
God helped eto be patient with the LDS American heresy peddlers aka Mormon missionaries.
I engage daily with the LDS American heresy peddlers daily on.social media..
They're also not the only restoration movement cult religion out there... there's Jehovah's witnesses and seventh day Adventists and Christian science and the Campbellites..
I've had them harass my family members because they hate the fact that I expose them.
This is an evil religion..
***** pin point: The boys said how do you disregard 99 bricks when only one is broken. God said I will leave 99 sheep and save the ones that is lost!!
My exact thoughts
You noticed the same thing.
If the broken one is "the chief corner stone" that building is liable to come down on your head. How much rests on that broken brick?
Was thinking the same thing when he said it. One of my favorite verses!
I have a hoodie that sias Jesus leaving 99 to find one seems crazy until your that one
I was born a Christian and I lost my faith and thought of myself as an atheist for a few months because I had a family friend that died from cancer. She had gotten married two years before and only got to spend one year with her baby. It was really hard for me but I am trying to find God again because I feel kind of empty without him. So I started praying again and I hope that I can find my way again. :)
death is addressed in the bible many a times my friend. it explains that death is the result of sin because mankind chose to be his own master
I stand in prayer with you that you understand that God loves you and your friend. I pray you know that no matter what jesus loves you.
Just know 2 years later someone seen this and I am now praying for you to receive this also
For me, I know that even if I’d ever lose faith in God, I know that God is always there even if I know it or not.
Man, that's SO hard. My grandmother passed away after YEARS of asking God to let me see her again. He said "ask and you shall receive", but I asked and He ignored me. It can be so hard to understand where God is in that. Just remember Jesus prayed in the face of death.
"Just because God allows it, it doesn't mean it is true." #preach
The dude in the back looks like he’s questioning everything now, let’s pray for them both🙏🏼
AMEN!
More likely he's the junior of the two; the one talking is probably a senior comp, and according to RMs the senior one usually takes the lead. Frankly, this senior comp (the one talking) has a better chance of questioning because the way he's talking he's clearly under stress from showing complete obedience and devotion to his mission president and other priesthood leaders in charge of him.
What good would prayer do? Can you demonstrate that prayer has ever helped anyone?
Kurt Sontag Prayer has helped me a lot, and I’ve witnessed others being healed through prayer, so to answer your question yes, I believe it would do some good to pray
@@nvpguitar4591 I asked for a demonstration, not a simple assertion. Personal testimony is useless. People believe in gods that contradict yours, and a lot of them have personal testimonies about experiences they had with their god, are they wrong, or lying? How do you know that you do not fall into either of those categories? How would I know if all you are willing to provide is personal testimony?
The morman said he’s asked if his beliefs are true and God loves him ..but what he doesn’t understand is his answer to his prayer is in front of him 😢😥 because God loves him🙏🏽
wow :(
BARS
That was from the Spirit
Jesus....amen! Preston sowed seeds tho, prayerfully the ground was right for the planting.
Wisest most spiritual comment I’ve ever read.
Yo Preston here’s a scripture that also helps when discussing with Mormons:
“I marvel that you are turning away so soon from Him who called you in the grace of Christ, to a different gospel, which is not another; but there are some who trouble you and want to pervert the gospel of Christ. But even if we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel to you than what we have preached to you, let him be accursed.”
Galatians 1:6-8
Purpose driven Talents I was waiting for him to pull this one out
@@JasmineAlesia he couldn't because the guy keeps interrupt in at every step. Which makes it harder for him to bring valid point at all times
Boom..yesss..
Paul said to test the spirits.. Joseph didn't!!!
Except this is a letter to Paul to the Galatians (not talking about Mormons) and this verse is actually evidence of the beginnings of an apostasy.
@@aaronmatthews1804 anyone who says the scripture is wrong or add too or take away..that is Joseph Smith did..so it does apply to him
So good, Preston. Watching this makes me want to know my bible more! This was beyond helpful and you did a great job.
missionary is about helping not just confusing people i have been in China and Jesus work and will makes me believe love is possible away from you own personal setting Go china see your preaching blossom is challenging but rewarded be ready to do so work like planting, gathering water, and other actions
It is not normal to toss a lot of topics Mormons was smart and respectable
Unfortunately for you you do not have the fullness of the gospel. Gods word does not just stop at the bible(which has been translated over centuries btw)
@@westhoodqualzini7884i hope you aren’t trying to spread the false gospel that is normalized in the LDS religion 🙏🏽. i pray any of those who believe in that are guided to the true Word
@@misslaurynhill the Christian church has no authority with god. I mean the people are evident. The biggest criminals in history are Christian. Not to mention the unrighteousness you see people with crosses on their necks. I don’t need any lectures from you
I’m an ex Mormon sir you are doing an amazing job. Keep doing what you are doing some people are borne into it and never hear true gospel. Much Love.

I was devout Mormon for 35 yrs. and thought just like this Elder does until God opened my eyes to His truth. I was blind and did this evading the question routine by bearing my testimony. That's how you're taught in mormonland if you don't know the answer...say what you think you know over and over and over. Its called "bearing down in pure testimony" Bruce R. McConkie.
The book of Mormon was written with Sidney Rigdon on the Johnson farm using the bible, popular questions of the time, the restoration movement era, stories Joseph Smith fabricated from his childhood along with his fathers stories...also much inspiration probably came from popular books of that time that Sidney was very influenced by in his religion.
You've done a great study Preston and can hold your own with the missionaries.
Did the jr. companion ever speak during the conversations? Lol. He looked so lost.
LDS Brothers and Sisters who watch this video PLEASE do your research and try to Prove Preston
wrong! OPEN your bible and read in context!!!! That's NOT what baptisms for the dead mean in the Word. Find out what was really being referred to.
You CANNOT cherry pick verses to prove anything. You must be a Barean and test everything. Find out what it actually means in the setting, who was addressed...Greek/ Hebrew origin. It will be worth it when the blinders come off your eyes and you see God for the first time! I fell to my knees and wept for hours and came to know the true God.
And he's not an exalted man with a body of flesh and bone who went through a process to godhood. He is the Almighty!
I pray for all Mormons to take the blinders off and see! Stop sticking your fingers in your ears and regurgitating the I know testimony. Like Preston said, the heart is deceiving.
This is good information
wow! thank you for sharing this! ! ! ! And you're right, at the point where he (mormon) flipped to like 3 verses and built a theology from it. . i was pulling my hair out because it was so blatantly eisegetical and sort of proved the point that preston was trying to make. Also he said some things that were factually incorrect EG a lot of what joseph wrote does not align with actual history in regard to america in that era. . anyway .. thank you for sharing and happy that you know the true god! !
very well said brother, you have to read the whole chapter or book to understand it, you should not cherry pick words or just pick some words because it will have different meaning
eyes opened So very true! I live in UT and all of my family members are either Mormon, Agnostic, Atheist or Materialist (which is basically Mormonism without Joseph Smith’s stories) and every time you corner them they always tell you they know it’s true because the spirit told them. To which I say “if someone calls your phone, but you don’t have their number and they say it’s someone you know, how would you know it’s them?” Gods word is His phone number and when He speaks I see it like caller ID cause I’ve read His word and know His character. Feelings are not The Spirit. I really enjoyed what you said. Thank you :)
Eye opened,
If this is your testimony, your testimony is sucks!!!
Don't pretend that you know the scripture because you don't.
επει τι ποιησουσιν οι βαπτιζομενοι υπερ των νεκρων ει ολως νεκροι ουκ εγειρονται τι και βαπτιζονται υπερ των νεκρων
Else what shall they do which are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not at all? why are they then baptized for the dead?
"Baptized for" means baptizing for a person, if that works for a person who is not deceased, why don't you do it since the bible says they are doing it?
Come on give us your thoughts and make us happy hahaha
Hey bro, you’re out there fighting the good fight. Did you do it perfectly? No. But you did what most Christians won’t do and you actually did it well. You’re passionate. You were well prepared. You actually know the Bible well. You know the Gospel like the back of your hand. And you have a good amount of knowledge on Mormon doctrine and passages. Keep sharing the good news, as I will. And I’m rooting for you!
Curious. How would you have done it better?
???
Cheryl Smith I’m not sure what the motives are behind this question. It’s hard to tell via written correspondence. He was kinda apologetic interrupting and various other things. So I was responding to his self critique.
@@cherylsmith233 Check out James White and Durbin on YT.
My main thought too. There were a few things that could be improved but statistically this is the only time these two missionaries will talk to a Christian willing to engage them and share the gospel.
It’s sad that he keeps saying he builds his faith on a “feeling” or a “prayer” when Luke 6:46-49 teaches us to build on foundation on the Word of God. Feelings and experiences are amazing for support but at the end of the day, you’re building your faith on a shakable foundation. Prayers for him.
Facts
Very true. A Christian who KNOWS their Bible; will easily recognize false teachers/preachers/prophets/gospels. In this case--the Mormons. And expose them; (Eph. 5:11, 2 Cor. 6:14).
“Repent of all your sins and iniquities and believe in Jesus Christ that he is the Son of God, and that he was slain by the Jews, and by the power of the Father he hath risen again, whereby he hath gained the victory over the grave; and also in him is the sting of death swallowed up.
“And he bringeth to pass the resurrection of the dead, whereby man must be raised to stand before his judgment-seat.
“And he hath brought to pass the redemption of the world, whereby he that is found guiltless before him at the judgment day hath it given unto him to dwell in the presence of God in his kingdom to sing ceaseless praises with the choirs above unto the Father, and unto the Son, and unto the Holy Ghost, which are one God, in a state of happiness which hath no end.
“Therefore repent, and be baptized in the name of Jesus, and lay hold upon the gospel of Christ.”
124 years before the coming of Christ, it was prophesied, “And he shall rise the third day from the dead; and behold, he standeth to judge the world; and behold, all these things are done that a righteous judgment might come upon the children of men.”
“Wo, wo unto him who knoweth that he rebelleth against God! For salvation cometh to none such except it be through repentance and faith on the Lord Jesus Christ.”
“And now, ought ye not to tremble and repent of your sins, and remember that only in and through Christ ye can be saved?”
“And these things doth the Spirit manifest unto me; therefore I write unto you all. And for this cause I write unto you, that ye may know that ye must all stand before the judgment-seat of Christ, yea, every soul who belongs to the whole human family of Adam.”
Christ himself said, “And for this cause have I been lifted up; therefore, according to the power of the Father I will draw all men unto me that they may be judged according to their works.
“And it shall come to pass that whoso repenteth and is baptized in my name shall be filled; and if he endureth to the end, behold, him will I hold guiltless before my Father at that day when I shall stand to judge the world.”
“And whosoever will harden his heart and will do iniquity, behold, I swear in my wrath that he shall not enter into my rest.”
Those who love these words may be surprised to learn the name of the book in which they are written.
@@anthonyfrank1072
It's very simple and not surprising, the key words are "and it shall come to pass" it's from your book and can't be found in the bible.
Quarles,
How can you know that you are doing what the bible says if you don't pray about it? You will be misguided by the hireling shepherds if you rally on your own wisdom, how unfortunate that you said pray for them as if you believe prayer will help. LOL
I keep thinking about the thief on the cross who was told, " Today, you will be with Me in paradise." No works. No baptism. Just faith that Jesus is who He said He is!
Your patience is inspiring...
my buddy Preston next steps stick to 5 essentials questions this was very too much data and be specific foundational faith principle less riddles and more substance overall ok another sequel is needed to clarify your mormon friend was sincere and knowledgeable less rants
Elder Strong Continuously said, "As missionaries, it is not their job to be able to answer the questions that people outside of the faith may have." Yet the Bible clearly states that as a believer we must be ready to give an answer for our faith. 1 Peter 3:15 - but sanctify in your hearts Christ as Lord: being ready always to give answer to every man that asketh you a reason concerning the hope that is in you, yet with meekness and fear.
I would've loved to hear his answer for that.
thats the truth - they something but they are not missionaries in any sense
You handled yourself incredibly. He interrupts constantly but won't let you finish what you're saying. Every time you cornered him he would change the subject. You can tell he doesn't even actually give any thought to your words. Well done brother. Keep doing what you do.
He is a kid but if you're going to be a missionary you need to be prepared to answer all kinds of questions and he wasn't ready .. thank you for trying to reach that young man
Give The Book of Mormon a chance Annette. It will give you a better understanding of God and of yourself..
Martin Andersen I have given it a chance, it’s false. It’s full of contradictions.
@@martinandersen9810 no thanks
One of my family members is a Mormon and I'm a Christian and we get along really well and we have long conversations about God and my cousins could never have any real answers for me but I have answers for him and he always says that my pastor is a good shepherd
Annette Mendoza - It might be helpful to all of us if you would be willing to describe your one family member who has read the Book of Mormon and converted to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter -day Saints. Do they still live a Christian lifestyle? Do they still believe Jesus atoned for their sins? Do they still love the Lord Jesus Christ as their Savior and Redeemer? I think you will find that they are perhaps improved people as a result of this change. If you would find the courage to read the Biok of Mormon yourself with an honest and inquiring heart, you too could be bettered as a person. That is not implying that you are bad in any way, but it is an incredible book that makes the sincere reader want to follow Jesus more exactly.
Personally, I love the Bible. It is essential. It actually speaks of the coming forth of the Book of Mormon. These two books are God sent to deliver scattered Israel. And you can be the more blessed by incorporating their teachings in your life. No one here wants you to give up any good you have got. The Book of Mormon is a second witness of Jesus Christ that should be loved by every Christian. It is a true record and it blesses lives. Just check it out. May God bless you to do so in all sincerity of heart. He lives and loves us.
Mormonism reminds me of a car dealership. The lead salesman has sold the most cars. He's 19 and he started last year, but he's a elder now. He can't tell you the specs of the engine. He hasn't lived long enough to have owned more than one car. His experience has told him that a certain car is best because he feels it. If a customer speaks of cars of the past he deflects to get this one sold.
They look and dress like salesman as well and they are not always honest with their responses

When he said the Bible was not meant to be the final word of God I instantly thought of Revelation 22:18-19. I thought you would have brought that up. But this was truly amazing to watch. My father is a pastor and years ago as a child he’s had this very discussion with Mormons. I didn’t fully grasp everything that was going on at the time but I do remember him wrestling to keep them on topic the same way you were. It’s very enlightening. I hope one day I can have the ability to have these in depth conversations.
Preston Respectfully Broke him down like a chess game. It’s clear that he even agrees with Preston but just has to much pride to admit this stuff doesn’t add up. all love though the seed was planted! ✊🏽✊🏽✊🏽
Proverbs 16:18. Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall.
pride was the first sin and in our sinful state we all struggle with this. It is the hardest to shake and the most destructive towards seeing truth.
Pray for the lost , misguided and uninformed in this regard
Elijas Dobson Yea that’s true his pride was getting to him
Elijas Dobson Amen 💯
It is not pride alone it is a terror of what Preston is saying possibly being true. These young men will lose everything in their life. Everything! Now that is a sobering reality.how many of you have lost everything to follow the real Gospel of Jesus Christ? Seriously. When I came out of Mormonism It was excruciatingly painful. But it was worth it all because I know Him in whom I believe, and He is worth the cost of true discipleship. Pray for these young men who have only known what they have been indoctrinated in.
@@bluewillow4985 Good for you isn't the Holy Bible the Best
Feelings don’t determine truth.
Preston admits logically he can't prove the Book of Mormon isn't true, so what is he relying on?
@@bradleycopeland1423 But Evidence through the living Word of God (Jesus Christ ) proves that the Bible is True . There cant be 2 truths
Each person has to come to the real truth through the conviction of the Holy Spirit and by testing to show thyself approved.
Feelings are an unreliable stance to determine order and standard of truth. If we all did what we felt then Woe be unto this world :(
If your God is not bigger than the Bible, then the Bible is your God!! This is really a children's debate. It's so obvious that the mormon is weak in his theology. Particularly if his historically based data is weak!
@@willtuft413 where is the only place to learn about Jesus Christ . The bible.
Where is the place to learn the order and commands of God . The bible
The bible is not worshiped . It is used to point persons to Jesus . We just need to make sure that we are pointing people to the correct Christ based on what he has revealed about himself in his word .
We worship God based on the knowledge and information He presented about himself through his word in the bible.
We dont worship based on feelings and if you need to add to or take from God's word means you either think God's word is 'outdated' or 'insufficient'. This means WE become gods by adding or taking away from his words.
Jesus said on Matthew 4 verse 4:
But he answered, “It is written,
“ ‘Man shall not live by bread alone,
but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.’
The Bible is the Menu that points to the Food of Jesus Christ . Who he is , want he stands for and what he requires for his kingdom.
If you look at the bible as what it is the LIVING words of God been made able through Jesus Christ inspired by the Holy Spirit then that would be enough authority for you to stand on.
Rather than discrediting God's FINAL word . Prayer and worship is a means of communicating this word on a personal or corporate level.
@@alishasheppard1368 Good morning, I am a student of religion and attend church weekly and I know, based on prior conversations and even this video, is based on what each individual feels. Christians differ in what salvation means, based on scripture. Some are Unitarians and others are Trinitarian based on scripture. Some have left Baptist to be Methodist..Pentecostal to Jehovah witness...left chritianity totally and went to to islam or Buddhism..based on what they have read in scripture. And everyone who changes or don't agree seem to be labeled as following a false doctrine. There are some pastors who say women shouldn't be heard , can't cut their hair based on scriptures. Is 2 Timothy 2:11-12 outdated?
I believe my sister, that God supersede the Bible, also, I may add, as people who have been slaves believe that God only visited Europe and no place else. I find that fascinsting. And the fact that king James and his crew interpreted his version of the Bible from an original manuscript called the textus receptus and he decided to leave out books. So since he rejected those books so do we. All I'm saying my sister is that we cannot, as intelligent people, believe that man gave us a book and didn't apply his emotions and interpretations to it. And as I end, God I bigger than any book anyone's mind or perspective. His word is not stagnant, we can't put in a box and contain it. He is the creator of the universe which we can't even imagine it's depth.
Thanks for the video.
I was out when Elder young said
"THE bible was not meant to be the final word of God " 🙁
But I sense the Holy Spirit convicting him strongly . Keep him in prayer😔
Because God has never ceased to speak to His people. It's called prayer.
Yea, that one made me do a double take. I had to rewind it.
@@bradleycopeland1423 in my opinion . A person's prayer is a subjective word. Because I can pray something that is not God's desire for me or those around me . Based on my feelings and emotions I pray what seems right to me, but is not God's Will. I can also pray something that goes against his Objective truths that are found in HIS revealed WORD which we can ONLY get from HOLY scriptures.
The word of God is the foundation . Nothing can be taken from it or added to it. He is the ancient of days. The first and the Last , the beginning and the end.
Prayer is simply aligning your subjective truths with God's revealed objective truth.
And as it says our hearts are deceitful and wicked. So I dont use prayers to receive God's ultimate word. I trust HIS revealed word for his ultimate word .
I know its hard having to wrestle with the fact that something you have been thought is not True, but God desires that all his children know him in fullness and in Truth.
The saying is practice makes perfect , but practicing something incorrectly is deceit .
I love you my brother. God Bless 🧡💙💚
Joseph Smith lied, and said the Word of God, the Holy Bible was corrupted and could not be trusted! God's word is tested, tried and true! It will judge them at the Judgment! The Book of Mormon is not scripture!
That’s exactly what he said so see Mormons don’t completely trust God they are of a different spirit and are following a false prophet different gospel and definitely a different gospel keep them in prayer.
It's crazy how you can have these long conversations over and over again when it seems like it has no to little pay off. It takes a lot of faith and patience and I really admire you for having that.
You are definitely inspiring me to speak to people in my life about deeper subjects like these.
Keep doing what you're doing. ❤
I wrote this for Preston:
You had a good LDS conversation. You brought up all the essential points: God's nature, salvation, scripture. And he emptied his purse on you: Third heaven, baptism for the dead, James 2. The thing to remember is that a good debate isn't getting the other side to admit defeat but that you professed God's truth.
The elders may not have given their lives to Christ that same day, but Preston has sown a seed in their hearts. His heart could be convicted the next day, year or even a decade later! The main thing is, he shared the truth of the gospel ❤️
The “3 Heavens” is Referring to
(1) Our Immediate Atmosphere
(2) Outer Space (The Sun, Moon, And Stars)
(3) The Home Of God
I’m shocked nobody made this point. It’s easy to look up the Hebrew Translation and see this.
I agree but maybe it was because the Mormon elder would have gotten even further away from the point Preston was making.
Though, I think that the second heaven is not outer space. Although not specifically mentioned in Scripture, I believe the second heaven refers to the invisible plane from which Satan and his demons operate. I would say the atmosphere immediately beside me is the same atmosphere that isn't close to me. It's just an atmosphere. I think all that is natural is part of the same heaven, especially because a distinction between the earth and the sun, moon, and stars, (in the sense of heavens) would be kind of useless. It's all creation so in my opinion, the same heaven.
In Ephesians 2: 2-3, Satan is called the Prince and the power of the air. Like all rulers, he needs a place to reside; this is why I think the second heaven is this plane: an invisible space not located on the physical world, in the sense that it doesn't have an address or literal location. But it is the real place where Satan and his demons reside. Using New Age psychic techniques, people have tapped into this heaven where they encounter spiritual beings, not of God, and practice techniques that allow demons to overtake them, etc.
The third heaven like you said is the home of God (II Corin 12:2)
Just my opinion :)
100%
I was literally about to comment the same thing when I saw your comment lol!
Your patience is commendable brother Perry
I would say the same for the Elders.
@@Ricky_Evans1611 You must have not watched the video and noticed how his aim is to win the hearts of those evangelizes rather than condemn them. You could learn from him.
@@chandlertuckerman5638 but this is the truth ,they are wrong.we must not play games with anyone
@@behradataei6479 I agree, but loving someone and treating them with decency isn't 'playing games'.

Watch out that no one deceives you. For many will come in my name, claiming, `I am the Christ, ' and will deceive many. - Jesus
@@user-xv8wy4nd7u Whoops I see this was quoting the Christian poster. I agree with him.
The first issue with Christians and LDS is to overcome the language barrier: the shared words with different meanings, that's why I posted. I see now though.
I did quote the Bible and I'll pardon your ad hominem (my imagination) as you pardon my error of overlooking.
22:11 PROFOUND STATEMENT that sums up the entire conversation
my Brother. Unfortunately this Elder does not want to hear the truth. He wants you to open your heart and mind to their teachings, but is not willing to open his heart and mind to the true word of God.
the kid literally said “there’s nothing you can add to the bible” and the book of mormon is. God open his eyes and heart.
I love your God given confidence. He gets upset and frustrated and you’re cool as a cucumber. God Bless You sir.
God spoke through Preston to this Elder to reveal the truth, let’s pray for him.
Yes! When he said " im going to study this and study hard" i pray he sees hes been feed a "twist" of the Bible and stop with the "academia" and Recieve the True Word of God

@@Melonsandmide DEBS!!! 😂

This is a perfect example of a "circular conversation", meaning one that goes around in a circle with no solution and conclusion. This happens often, especially in talks about faith. Stay encouraged!!
As someone who is getting ready to leave the Mormon church let me explain to anyone who is confused about what "Saved by grace after all we can do" means:
1. Attend church and all Sunday meetings
2. Accept all church callings/duties given to you by your church leaders
3. Pay a full tithing 10 percent of your income to the church
4. Obtain a Temple recommend/you need to be worthy in all aspects of the word to get one
5. Attend the Temple and perform temple ceremonies, baptisms for the dead, sealed to your family, get married for all eternity and the list goes on, these are just some of the things the Mormon church thinks you need to do to be saved after all that you can do.
Jesus said, "Follow Me."
God bless you.
Yes see this is clearly not Jesus teachings that’s mens laws JESUS fulfilled all of the law so come unto Christ for he saved you not all this men made rules.
thecatman4ever you worship Satan.
Getting ready to leave?

The Book of Mormon is racist.
One reason I left Mormonism and came to true saving faith in Jesus!
Patrick Leyerle Glad to hear you were able to leave and find truth🙏🏼
You obviously don't know what you are talking about. Sorry. I don't mean to be rude, but it is what it is. Actually read it. Thank you.
Bradley Copeland
When the Book of Mormon was established they taught that black people were cursed and were colored black because they did not choose a side between the Devil or God.
Bradley Copeland the Book of Mormon also says that the red skin on Native Americans is a curse
yea i wonder why preston didnt bring that up. to me that demonstrates that joseph was a product of his time, and that the book of mormon is truly just a human creation, lacking inspiration.
The third heaven is talking about where God dwells.
There is the heaven were the birds fly, the heaven where the stars and planets are and the heaven where God dwells.
Exactly
Big facts
Stars are fixed to the firmament- says the bible
Patrick Leyerle exactly correct not the 3 false heavens Mormons say.
@@georgecooper4502 Shalom Aleichem
Right, the Hebrew word for heaven is Shamayim (H8064)
The word for the expanse (in which the sun, moon and stars were set) is Raqiyah (H7549)
The expanse is a solid structure, like molten glass.
Bro! Insane amount of patience and grace. I applaud you in this. Thank you for doing kingdom work amongst pseudo-Christian religions. The indoctrination is so strong within these guys.
I am grateful to be a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. We are fully Christian, not pseudo-Christian.
I regret to tell you my friend but the LDS believes in a false Christ.
@@briancarter6284 The LDS believe in the only true and living Christ, the Son of the Living God. He came to earth as the anointed One. He atoned for the sins of mankind. Have you ever considered that you might be the one who has a belief in a false Christ if your Christ was not the Son of God? You should give that some thought and study before just supposing that the LDS are wrong. They have it pretty well together.
Preston is a great example of a Christian he patience he has the fruit of the spirit and his grace is amazing he is spreading the truth to elder Strong.
@@selinaogorman8380 Really? Not what I saw at all. Your man was clearly using the same deceptive tactics and set of loaded questions I've heard a hundred time before.
Good Job my brother!
I am a former LDS raised in Southern California.
I now live in a predominantly LDS community in Eastern Idaho.
There's a HUGE Mormon subculture which permeates Everything from education business and politics.
With that said, Most of the LDS here are wonderful people who are some of the best Neighbors Coworkers etc.
However we must share the Truth in Love with them.
Keep up the good work that you are doing by giving an answer for the hope that is within you !

As I listen to this conversation, I'm left wondering, if The Bible is wrong and untrue, how is it that the Book of Mormon is true if it borrowed from the Bible which they're saying is "fallen away"?Referencing The Bible to prove the book of mormon to be true is a contradiction. If it's a fallen then nothing should be borrowed from the Bible. I'm so glad that these young men were able to have this conversation with Preston. It's obvious they do want to do the right thing, Lord help🙏🏼
Preston, your wisdom, knowledge and love in God is on point! thank you for these videos man.
Usually it’s only one who partakes in discussion. The other people who are present sit in contemplation... Praying for their deliverance. Great job Preston!!!
I just had a conversation w/ 3 Mormons yesterday and was amazed how they explained everything off. I asked for a BoM besides the videos you posted I didn’t know much about their religion. Today, I discovered that they do not even ascribe to their own text. They claim to do so but they actually ascribe to the Doctrine of Covenants. The crazy thing about it was that the BoM teaches that the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are 1 God. It’s written in Alma, 2 Nephi, Mormon, but the Doctrine of Covenants says something completely different. It was heartbreaking how much trust they put in a man’s word. It also made me realize that they can skip pass things bc we don’t anything about the BoM. The DoC contradicts the BoM, and the BoM contradicts the Bible. These videos have been super helpful over the past couple years. God bless you Preston 🙏🏽
You are correct and spot on. Also, it is strange how a majority of Mormon doctrines, practices, and teachings CANNOT be found in the Book of Mormon. This is very strange considering the claims made by the author, Joseph Smith.
In the Introduction to the Book of Mormon, Joseph Smith, founder of Mormonism wrote, “I told the brethren that the Book of Mormon was the most correct of any book on earth, and the keystone of our religion, and a man would get nearer to God by abiding by its precepts, than by any other book.”
In the Mormon so-called restored gospel which includes temple rituals, Masonic type handshakes, and underwear with sewn in Masonic symbols are not in the Book of Mormon.
At the end of the day, it is the Holy Spirit who does the work. You just plant the seed and let God grow it 🌱.
3rd heaven was a common Hebrew understanding. 1st heaven is the earth’s atmosphere. Second heaven is the universe and the stars, the Third heaven was where God dwelt. This is how the Israelites/Jews understood heaven. So it makes sense this is how Paul described his experience.
Iam still in awe of the other guy who has said not one word.
Tiffany Barnes Johnson not one word...hmmmm?
He's listening! Perhaps the Holy Spirit is at work.
Thank you for this. I had a conversation with 2 Mormon elders about 3 days ago. And, I will be having another conversation with them next week; cause we didn't have time to go over other topics that I had on my list. This probably won't be my approach, but I will just share truth based on the Holy Bible.
I'm a former Mormon and served a mission. These kids are trained in the MTC Missionary Training Center before they begin their missions and are taught how to control the conversation and if they loose that control it's because the investigator is unwilling to cooperate and is contentious, therefore give BM, bear testimony and encourage investigator to read BM and to get confirmation that it is true and then move on unless investigator is interested. I believe Young is sincer in what he believes in, but he doesn't know yet how sincerely he is wrong. God uses these conversations to challenge them and to wake them up and the most important thing for the Christian to do is to be prepared with God's Word and get it in them! Isaiah 55:11 "So will My word be which goes forth from My mouth; It will not return to Me empty, without accomplishing what I desire, and without succeeding in the matter for which I sent it." Romans 10:14 "How then will they call on Him in whom they have not believed? How will they believe in Him whom they have not heard? And how will they hear without a preacher?" Get the seed in them which is the Word of God, and the Holy Spirit will do the watering. Pray for them that the seeds planted in their soil will take root, because Satan will do everything he can to steal or scatter the seeds! Blessings!
Galatians 1:8-9 ESV
[8] But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be accursed. [9] As we have said before, so now I say again: If anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to the one you received, let him be accursed.
Preston: bringing the truth
Elder 1: *brings up another subject to avoid answering*
Elder 2: 🎶Hello darkness my old friend...🎶
Facts
Never Stop bro and don't let the Devil slow you down!
One of the hardest things when talking to the LDS is their foundational misunderstanding of the history and culture of the period, as well as the context of a verse. 1 Corinthians 15 isn't condoning the practice of baptizing the dead. Paul is arguing for the resurrection of the dead, and to aid his point he essentially says even the pagans know there's life after death! Similarly, when he discusses the third heaven, the text isn't talking about a third level, but rather how the natural order was described at the time. The sky was a heaven, the cosmos was a second, and heaven was the third.
thedarlingdiva Exactly, so many Latter Day Saints take these verses out of context
I was getting frustrated every time he dodged a question. Hopefully he will wrestle with these questions because they both know these are fundamental differences and both can't be right
Your premise is that one has to be true. Consider that neither could be true?
Exactly right. You can’t have it both ways. If you believe Joseph smith, you believe you will become a god one day. Period. The Bible blatantly contradicts this which ultimately disproves Joseph Smith from the getgo. It’s really that simple.
hi my name is Terry and i used to be a mormon. I was a mormon for five years. I even went on a mormon mission. One thing that I would like to comment on is that you need to learn the terminology. When they say they are saved what they really mean is that they are going to be resurrected. There are other terms as well that don't mean what you think they mean. It's good that you tried to keep them on one topic. I noticed how elder strong tried to change the subject on you, but you did a good job in bringing him back. i have talked to many mormon missionaries and all i talk to them about is who Jesus is and show them that they have the wrong Jesus. So keep up the good work.
Terry
The missionary asks, "So why are their still millions of Mormons"? I have to ask, so why are their still millions of heroin junkies? What does any of this prove?
And there’s actually not even 17 million practicing LDS members. That’s just the number of people on their records. I know lots of Mormons still on their records that do not practice or believe in it anymore. It’s just a hassle to get taken off the records so they don’t bother.
Brotha I’ve been camping out for this video! Lol thank you for such great content and praise God for your heart for the lost .
Brother, I'll be ministering to a friend who left LDS in shame in his early 20s and is planning to return now that he has a family, got straightened out and recently got some serious health issues. I love this Brother and all the LDS lost sheep. These videos have given me extra discernment to continue sharing Christ's gospel.
PRAISE GOD you didn't take these videos down. REMAIN BOLD BROTHER! Truth is freedom. Our forever King Jesus is returning for His bride (US) soon and all will have to give an account.
Don't forget to remind these lost young brothers what James says in 3:1-2.
I hope so much that he has come to know the true Christ! It is truly awesome and amazing that the three of you spoke for literally hours!!! I am so encouraged by watching these evangelism videos!!! Thank you!!!
When you got that quiet moment from them and he said "okay" at 23:12 ...he really looked convicted. At that point he just doesn't want to lose the argument...he allows pride to go first. May Jesus reveal to him and free him Amen
Wow, the level of condescension from this guy is unbelievable. He never answers a single question, he is rude, never lets you talk ... this is the perfect MTC student. I admire you for being so calm, I would have been a lot more angry by this time in the conversation. He is one of those people who needs to believe (no matter what) or else his entire world would fall apart. He is getting all of his self worth from this belief and that is actually the sad part.
Awesome Preston! This is why we need to know our Bible to avoid all the false teaching in the world.
I thank God for you and Jackie, Preston!!!! This is so enlightening!!! I never knew their beliefs were so different from Christianity 🤯 Definitely praying in faith that God will finish the work in the souls you encounter 💜
Such an excellent video. I learned so much. It’s very encouraging to see an educated Christian.
Preston mad respect! You were so much nicer than I would have been
I enjoyed this conversation. It’s interesting to hear the Mormon perspective. I hope at some point they come back to meditate on some of the truth gems you dropped.
ABOUT👏🏾 TIME 👏🏾.
Grace & Peace to you brother
Rashawn Parks I said the same exact thing!! 😂
Matthew 16 says there will be no apostasy.
The gates of hell will not prevail against Christ’s Church.
Revelation 14: 6 And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people,
Yet another Angel has to come to preach the everlasting Gospel.
Amos 8: 11 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord God, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord:
12 And they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to and fro to seek the word of the Lord, and shall not find it.
The gates of hell will never prevail against revelation. That’s how God communicates with his covenant people.
@@BradleyGagne
The angel is preaching the Gospel no mention that the Gospel was not being preached just that *this angel* is preaching it in this way.
The passage in Amos 8 is talking about a time when they will not *hear* the word of God. Again it is being preached but not heard
Those without ears to hear.
The passage in Matthew still stand there is no conflict in scripture.
Gavin Hill it is the EVERLASTING gospel. If you believe Christ’s one true church was built on Peter, are you catholic? Or are you protestant?
Galatians 1: 8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
An angel doesn't preach in his own way!
Do you believe that the Bible has no errors or discrepancies? After it's many translations?
breezy
@@BradleyGagne that is end of Times when the comforter will release from this World and Satan and the Anti-Christ will reign. That will be the Great Apostasy that Revelation is talking about. We are wittnessing the End of Days
Peace
Thank you for keeping part 1 and adding part 2! I am currently in the process of putting a lesson together that has a lot of what was discussed here which I will then go over with my grandfather as he said he wants to understand what I believe. I honestly believe God is working here and using me to show him the Truth. Please pray for him!
I so desperately wish I could’ve talk to you before you did this interview, I was raised Mormon and when you get into the foundation you nail right on the head. I have since left the church after years and years of trying to figure out whether or not it was right or if it was something that had just been pumped into my brain since I was born, there are so many things I could’ve sent you into this interview with that are very very real questions that are taught right out of the LDS church history that don’t align with what they teach. In fact their teachings are soul south preservationist it’s scary Joseph Smith himself didn’t even follow all of the rules that were laid down in the book of Mormon and doctrine and covenants and the LDS church will openly admit it you just have to go and find it it is arguably one of the greatest deceptions in the history of the world. I feel bad for the missionaries they are only trained for two weeks and most of the kids that are going on missions are doing it only to pacify their parents they’re not Genuinely going because their whole life they have done nothing but pound scripture and want to go serve it’s indoctrinated in you from the time you were born but this is what you have to do in order to be a good person. Great video but you saw how frustrated he would get any time you tried to ask or answer a question this is what the LDS church does they try to talk over you and shut you up and pound their testimony down your throat in hopes that something will stick well it’s the same thing as throwing shit against the Wall if in your mind it’s life or death you’re gonna keep throwing shit until something sticks
Great video. That poor missionary was so lost. You asked questions that wasn’t on his 5 message plan. Sweet kid but he had no clue of what you were talking about. Keep making videos!
He was lost? The questions were all over the place.
Man this was a great discussion! I am engaging with Elders in my local context as well. I try to always leave them with a question to ponder just as you did. I learned alot from this video and it encouraged me to read more about what the LDS believe. Thanks for posting this.
You are so good at this, Preston... obviously called by God for this purpose! It's so hard to talk to these folks and you have such great patience and finesse with them. God bless you and your mission!!!
Guys Preston is speaking with so much love and patience. Spirit flowing!
Hey Brother Preston! My name is James, and I’ve been listening to you for a couple of days! Also I plan to keep on listening GOD willing! Listen I’m a born again JESUS follower, and have been saved for 40 years or so! I really love the way you express your heart to everyone! It’s the precious HOLY SPIRIT of GOD in JESUS Awesome Name! I would like to say that the HOLY SPIRIT impressed upon my heart to tell you let them all know in a loving way that there is a hell reserved for people that follow after anything or anyone but JESUS CHRIST Our LORD AMEN!!!! I love you man GOD Bless you and your family! 🙏😎❤️
I just was approached by two Mormons and I’m a Christian myself who knew little of the origin of the Book of Mormon as well as little of the entire word of God (which I believe is the Holy Bible)aside from some books of the New Testament…and I tried to have a discussion with them about the contradictions the Book of Mormon has to what the Bible teaches being that a lot of the Book of Mormon is derived from parts of the Holy Bible…this video helped me with a lot of questions I had after my conversation with the two young men..and inspired me to dig into the scriptures further and test the Book of Mormon against what the Bible says…
"You asked us questions we weren't prepared to answer!" Wow. Should have come prepare, Elder Strong.
Todd Kuhns Don’t bring an unloaded weapon to a gun fight!! 😌🤷🏽♂️
Well I'm looking forward to the next video then. Unfortunately if Preston is not willing to learn the basics he will never know.
@@bradleycopeland1423, he knows more than "the basics" and is why he's not fooled by your false doctrine. Ir should I say Cult.
Actually he came to fight but said, "I dont want to fight." It's a cop out to leave an easy out and make the Christian look bad.
The Mormon church thought that black people couldn’t be saved
The native red skinned people were not allowed in this group
Hey Buddy,
I am member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I also hold a Master in Divinity. I love working with those of other faiths. Now, I have to admit. I didn’t get time to see all of both videos. So forgive me if I say something you guys spoke about in the video.
Over the years I have come to learn that Grace between my faith and other Christians is more of the same definition than you realize. Sadly, you guys missed some critical parts. Keep in mind that the missionaries are not designed to be apologist. When I was a missionary, I wasn’t spending my time studying rebuttals. As I have worked with other faiths, I have come to realize that we, Latter-day Saints, speak with our own jargon. When I understood mainstream Christian jargon I learned that we are speaking the same thing, we just say it (or express it) in different ways.
The thing I was stuck on was 2 Nephi 25: 23, the ol’ “after all we can do” conversation. Don’t get so caught up in that verse, you agree with what the BoM more than you realize. Step back and remember the context 2 Nephi 25:23. Nephi was prior to Christ walking the earth and fulfilling the Law of Moses; Paul was after.This is critical to remember!
Now read 2 Nephi 25 versus 23 and 30 together: 23 For we labor diligently to write, to persuade our children, and also our brethren, to believe in Christ, and to be reconciled to God; for we know that it is by grace that we are saved, after all we can do.
30 And, inasmuch as it shall be expedient, ye must keep the performances and ordinances[i.e. sacraments] of God until the law shall be fulfilled which was given unto Moses.
In fact, in verse 27 Nephi spoke that “we speak concerning the law that our children may know the deadness of the law.” Showing that he knew that the law of moses was going to be dead works.
In other words, “after all we can do” shifts after Christ fulfills the law. Which is what Nephi is saying and it is consistent with the Bible.
If you want a conversation with an LDS apologist I would suggest contacting fairmormon.org I think you might find a more fulfilling group to talk to.
I think another main point in the Bible is that God is the Father of all spirits. Hebrews 12:9 and Ephesians 4:6. When we talk about the church falling away after the apostles were martyred it is entirely because the interpretations of scripture were false and were not followed correctly, not because the words God had given were changed. The words of God were misinterpreted to give people power over others and not used to live by and promote salvation through Jesus Christ. One of the gifts of God is our effort, the effort we have granted in our bodies from our Creator, and all effort we put into godliness is encouraged by His word.
Jesus said ‘many will come in my name’
We need to be very careful and ask the Holy Spirit to help us discern who/what is from God and who/what isn’t from God!
We need to pray for Mormons, Muslims, Jews, everybody!
Being a former Mormon myself and personally drove missionaries and preaching with them I know where that good feeling in the bosom comes from.
They have a script they follow and they really hot on the spirit world and how we get a second chance to accept Christ and how practically no one will go to the outer darkness. Well except apostates like me.
Everyone will go to one of three heavens.
So all those family and friends that died without Christ have a chance to escape hell.
Tell me the heart isn't going to want to believe that.
The actually really believe the warm feeling in their hearts is telling them it's the truth.
I've witness probably thousands of tearful testimonies says that they know the church is true because of that feeling.
In regard to the question of how a 20 year old could write the Book of Mormon, Einstein was 26 years old when he wrote the theory of relativity, Steve Jobs was 21 years old when he invented the Apple computer, etc. Age is not in and of itself an argument of divine inspiration.
Also I'm sure they proof read their work back then before publishing it. I don't know about you but I remember having several drafts in school before making my final copy. Also Joseph Smith was fairytale writer. So he was good at writing fairytales. The book of Mormon is just another one of his fairytales.
Both Einstein and Jobs had college degrees before making their discoveries. Joseph Smith had nothing but a desire to follow the promptings and admonitions of the Lord. The book and the religion that resulted have changed the world and brought back an understanding of God and His purpose for humanity that have blessed millions of lives. I love the Book of Mormon. I love the feeling I get when I read from its pages for even one minute, but I have spent a lifetime absorbing it. It truly is the words of God, a companion Testament of Jesus Christ, and a way to a brighter future. God bless all who come across it to read it thoroughly, and with an open heart and mind.
Martin Andersen A college degree is the result of intelligence, not the cause of it. In his time, Joseph Smith made many false prophecies, thereby excluding him from being considered a biblical prophet. I’m sure he was being led by a spirit, it just wasn’t the Holy Spirit.
Martin Andersen Not to be that guy, but Steve Jobs didn’t have a degree. And there are many other geniuses who did not have a degree including Bill Gates, Michael Faraday, Gregor Mendel; the list goes on my friend.
@@martinandersen9810 So you really believe that Jesus went to another people during his 3 days in the tomb, and preached the gospel to the indians. And since they did not "believe" his word, thst God placed a curse on them and turned them black. It has only been lifted in the last few years. Blacks have not been allowd into the inner working of the LDS. Do you approve of that because that is what the mormon church taught
That was great Preston. I've attempted to witness to LDS before, it was very difficult. They're very rehearsed and always revert to their testimony when they don't have an answer. I have to say your knowledge of scripture and Joseph Smith's writings as well as your patience are inspiring.
I personally wrote into the Smithsonian institute and asked about the claims made in the book of Mormon from an archeological perspective. Their reply was that they have no evidence to support their claims. We do however have archeological evidence of the bible's claims.......ie. the nation of Israel is a prime example.
Please publish or share.
He indicated he will study and study hard. What will he study will he only studies his doctrine? In his immaturity unfortunately he wanted to prove a point of trying to through information out. He wanted to make a point that Preston did not know about a particular type of baptism of the dead. He needs to be taught how to focus and willingness to listen and learn. He did not want to appear that he was less knowledgeable. This young man can learn a lot but his emotions are involved. Now his buddy was taking it all in. This was such a very good video. I absolutely loved it. He wasn't ready. He didn't act like he wanted the truth. He is not ready for real knowledge. His ears are closed to the truth. Pray for the lost, those who deny the truth. Question? When Jesus says, "It is finished, what does that mean?" New discussion.....
Your videos are priceless and inspiring! Thank you for these two interviews. Expose the lies, Brother!
This was quite sad, I am a member of the church of latter-day saints and I know all the question's Preston's asked do have an answer. There is indeed a way to know that Joseph Smith was a Prophet and that the Book of Mormon is true. Of course, all these questions are definitely deep and hard and so I respect the Elder for doing his best. I do not know all things either but I do have answers for all the questions asked in parts 1 and 2 of this video. if you'd like to receive those answers or maybe just understand better, reply to me and we can chat! Much love for those Elders, as they said... they were not prepared and were caught off guard, I'm sure they will make great teachers from this experience.
Hey, I’m keen to know what you have to say :) and I can promise I’m not doing this to attack you or start an argument. Just keen know what the answer is.
Utah
What is your reply to Isaiah 43? God claims to be the only God and an eternal God, so how can there be multiple Gods?
(I want to make clear that I desire an integrous conversation and I don't want to attack you as a person)
You know who else tells lies when they're almost the trurh? 🤔 Satan... 🤷♀️
Yes..!!!
@Satan F_yourgod666 Think again. He's responsible for every evil out there and hates your inner being and you will follow him? Foolish.
Wesley H if you really believed that, then why would you be here watching this video? if you hated god so much then why do you keep wanting to learn about him? it’s impossible to believe in satan without believing in god, and vice versa. jesus’ arms are wide open. whenever you’re ready he’s there. deep down you know who loves you. you may love satan but he will never love you back.
God bless you for trying to teach the true gospel to people who are spiritually lost.
As an ex Mormon and a born again Christian now, I think the best way to get a Mormon to listen is to stick with the Bible plant the seeds of the gospel and pray for them to have Ears to hear the true words that Jesus Christ said.
This video was so encouraging and informational. I have recently found myself in a mom group where everyone but me is a mormon. I have been trying to learn more about their faith as we have grown to be friends but not quite ready to have these kinds of conversations. I believe this has given me a good starting point.
I feel Elder Strong avoids many questions not only because he doesn’t know the answer but also because he knows there IS no answer. His frustration is so evident, his posture & the way he speaks is sometimes condescending. He can’t understand that people can follow a false doctrine and that he could be believing something completely false. His faith seems to be based on feelings and his own direct involvement in Gods decisions. God bless you brother Perry, I feel your heart intent is genuine & your patience is great.
They want to become gods of their planets so of course it's hard to make them understand they will be just companions to Christ instead of equal.
May God open their eyes and hearts.
There's so many fake Christians on her who claim to be Christians who believes in the Trinity the Trinity is false you do not know the family father or his son
David Hurtado lemme guess, you got that from the book of morman? 😂😂
be quiet parrot, you're only parroting lies. You've never heard that from an actual Mormon. Bearing false witness is one the Lord's most abhorred sins.
Where’d the idea of us having our own planets come from? That’s not what we teach.
Brigham Young, 2nd Mormon false prophet, taught Mormons they will be gods and have their have earths and worlds.
“We Shall go on from one step to another, reaching forth into the eternities until we become like the Gods, and shall be able to frame for ourselves, by the behest and command of the Almighty. All those who are counted worthy to become Gods, even the sons of God, will go forth and have earths and worlds like those who framed this on millions on million of others.”
Young delivered this non-sense to the self-proclaimed latter-day saints on Sunday Morning, July 19, 1874, at the funeral services of Elder Thomas Williams, in the 14th Ward Assembly Rooms, Salt Lake (Journal of Discourses Vol. 17, page 143)
This mormon kid is like a used car salesman, public defender, and security guard all rolled into one.
God was revealing himself to multiple prophets throughout the Bible, not just one person like Joseph Smith. That should be a huge red flag.
I really like the young Mormon. He has passion. He really wants to learn the truth. He is very young he will find the answers later in his life because he is smart.
Brother, God bless you man!! ❤️🙏🏿 Wow these conversations are really hard and I thank the Lord for leading to you're channel because I believe the Lord is also trying to train me to contend my faith properly. So it's so great to see these discussion.
The first heaven is the sky, the second heaven is space, the third heaven is HEAVEN. There’s nothing secret or contradictory about that.
*Thank You for planting that seed.*
You planted a seed. We have to plant and hope the seed grows. I commend you for sharing the gospel.
Preston YOU ARE MY BRO IN CHRIST! I’m totally loving the sharing you do w Mormans, JW, lost people. BUT your patience and respect you show to these people is incomparable!! Cuz they interrupt, cut you off, BUT you persevere in patience. WOW AND AMEN. God has annointed you! Do you ever get down to San Antonio, Texas?
I remember I was talking to Mormon this last 3 month ago, they came in my college!
And what they exactly ask me was where do the Book of Mormon came from?
I’m not done talking them yet but I will definitely go to scriptures to expose them and let holy spirit convict them! Pray that I do this in boldness
Thank You and God bless 🙏
