LINKS Examining the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints?
“Mormonism must stand or fall on the story of Joseph Smith. He was either a Prophet of God, divinely called, properly appointed and commissioned or he was one of the biggest frauds this world has ever seen. There is no middle ground. If Joseph was a deciever, then he should be exposed, his claims should be refuted, and his doctrines shown to be false…” – Doctrine of Salvation, 1:188-89 – President Joseph Fielding Smith – 10th President of the LDS Church

Why then would anyone be afraid to read
Mormon or non-Mormon examinations of the
Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints?

There are VERY MANY websites regarding Mormonism. Many are published by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Other websites are non-LDS and most often considered “anti-LDS” by most Mormons. There is no Biblical reason to ridicule or laugh at Mormons as some people and websites tend to do.
While it is good to be knowledgeable regarding The beliefs of the Mormon Church, it is wise to be very careful about the sources of our knowledge. The best advice for anyone, pro or con, interested in accurately evaluating any group that claims to be “Christian” is to spend the great majority of our time reading the Bible and comparing all other sources to what the Bible says. Spending more time reading what others say about the Bible than reading the Bible itself, makes a person more easily misled.
