The Prophetic Presbyterian & His Narrow Way

As a follow-up to our post about President Trump’s lack of moral qualifications for office ..  Mr. Trump’s PR team decided to post an artistic representation of Mr. Trump as, according to the media , in their minds, a big bad patriotic Jedi defending the nation from evil — but they gave him a red lightsaber,  which is an elementary blunder on their part —- In  Star Wars lore, red light lightsabers are exclusive to Sith Lords.   Therefore, instead of promoting the President as a big bad patriotic Jedi defending the nation from evil, they wound up portraying him as a metrosexual Sith Lord.  In Star Wars, Sith Lords are universally warmongers, gluttons, authoritarians, & sorcerers who are hooked up to epic Satanic witchcraft.     The Book of Jude in the Bible analogizes between false teachers & others who are in league with demons.  Demons are guilty of warmongering, witchcraft, sorcery, religious & quasi-religious bigotry, epic gluttony...

It seems that some people on the internet who reject Christianity as a heretical movement that sprung from Judaism think it’s clever to analogize between Christianity & Mormonism as if these are equivalent.       No, it most certainly is not equivalent —-and here’s why:  Christianity Mormonism Begins as a reform movement within 2nd Temple Judaism Begins as a Restorationist movement alongside Christianity Epistemic Basis: OT & NT correctly exegeted, exposited, understood, & applied Epistemic Basis: The Book of Mormon & other similar texts (Doctrine & Covenants, Pearl of Great Price) & the OT & NT thusly reinterpreted/  deliberately misinterpreted Monotheistic Polytheistic Ad Fontes! = Hebrew, Aramaic, Koine Greek (Real Languages) Ad Fontes! = “Reformed Egyptian” ( a fictional language) Trintarianism Polytheism Translations:  Multiple translations are good for getting to the correct meaning of the text. Translations: Heavy Dos...

4. The Problem of Simultaneous Unity & Diversity (the One & Many.  In Mormonism, Elohim is one of many gods who are, on a functional level, Exhalted Men.  The creation is said to testify to His image.  Although not created objects, numbers reflect God’s image & attributes. Whole numbers are immutable abstract (mathematical) objects that inhere in God’s mind,   They are perichoretic via the fractions in between them.     If Mormonism obtains then numbers are not perichoretic.  Elohim, in LDS theology, is an internally singular individual & not a singular being who is triune & whose Members are perfectly perichoretic with each other.  If Elohim is not triune & his image reflects his nature, then there are no fractional numbers & there is no simultaneous unity & diversity in perfect diversity.    The creation bears the marks of simultaneous unity & diversity.   Fractions exist.   O. LORD, H...

3:  Romans 1:18 - 32  Rom. 1:18 - 20:  God created everything, & gave it a specific moral intention — to testify to **HIS** image (existence & attributes) & **HIS** authority.    Rom. 1:19 - 23: God indicts & condemns humanity for suppressing His image & authority & supplanting it with their own image & others drawn from the created order, which is how they wound up with idols that looked like people & animals.  Rom. 1:24 - 27: The people did worship & sexual ethics accordingly.  Rom. 28 - 32:  God proverbed them by permitting kitchen sink immorality that led to the rise & fall of multiple civilizations.  The tradition bound view says that 1:26 - 27 can’t be restricted to homosexual temple prostitution & other cultic acts because “natural” means “heterosexual/heteronormative” & “unnatural” means “homosexual.” That can’t be true for multiple reasons. 1:20 states the moral intention of t...

Mormonism can be easily confuted using a multi-pronged approach.  1. Theology of Transitional Prophets  2. Lack of Formal Covenantal Literary Structure. Behold, I send my messenger, and he will prepare the way before me. And the Lord whom you seek will suddenly come to his temple; and the messenger of the covenant in whom you delight, behold, he is coming, says the Lord of hosts. But who can endure the day of his coming, and who can stand when he appears? For he is like a refiner’s fire and like fullers’ soap. He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver, and he will purify the sons of Levi and refine them like gold and silver, and they will bring offerings in righteousness to the Lord. Then the offering of Judah and Jerusalem will be pleasing to the Lord as in the days of old and as in former years. “Then I will draw near to you for judgment. I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, against the adulterers, against those who swear falsely, against those who oppress ...
