Why does the Holy Spirit in Bible based Christian Churches confirm the Mormon book wrong?
Yet the Mormons believe the feeling in their bosoms tells them that the Mormon is true?
That they are two different Spirits. Not the same Spirit as the Holy Spirit is One Spirit %26amp; will not contradict Gods Word..Why does the Holy Spirit tell me the Mormon book is false? To throw it away?
Even if Jesus did write another book, (and I know He did not)He would not contradict Himself~His Word is truth, He is the Truth and He is the Word -Last will and Testament
I would ask the Mormons to read the Bible, New Testament, and then the Book of Mormon and see for themselves where the discrepancies are
they have asked another spirit to come in and it has deceived them and they should ask Jesus to show them the truth
The Holy Spirit does not speak of Himself, He always points to Jesus
we are not to worship angels, Jesus is the cornerstone of The Church (true body of Christ)
Spirit of Truth
The Truth Book, (the Bible gives us this:
If I or an angel preach any other Gospel than that of Jesus Christ, let him be anathemaWhy does the Holy Spirit tell me the Mormon book is false? To throw it away?
It told me that too.
It's not just the book of mormon, why do people read the Qu'ran and know it is true, and the Bible and know it is true, ect ect ect with all religions.
It tells you this because you are not ready to accept the true church of Jesus Christ into your life yet. You are not ready to make the changes that you must to become a true follower of Christ. Until then the spirit still guides you in a positive direction until you are ready.
Two questions:
1) Have you sincerely read the Book of Mormon and prayed to know if it is true or not, with an open heart? (be honest)
2) It is strange that millions have read and prayed and gotten a spiritual confirmation of the truthfulness of the Book of Mormon, but you got the opposite answer... That makes me wonder about question (1) above.
It's obvious...you've never read it.
You've had a few questions along this topic now. Have you not yet recevied the answer you want? I'm wondering if your implying that we do not have the Holy Spirit, but some other spirit? I also wonder how many ';Bible based'; Christians have actually read the Book of Mormon with an open mind, pondered, and prayed about it, and have still felt the witness that it was wrong, as oppossed to ones that have listened to others and felt that it was wrong.
I believe that the Holy Ghost has witnessed to me of its truthfulness and I can't really comment on any others experiencing because of the personal nature of revelation through the Holy Spirit.
You're right! How CAN those Mormons be the only ones who feel that it is true? Because it IS!!!
Oh and, that's not the Lord's spirit telling you the Book of Mormon is not true...sorry. The Lord would never lead us away from the light and truth. He can't. He reveals truth.
Are you asking the Lord if it is TRUE or if it is false???
I believe that the great decevier, satan, is the one who causes confusion, fear, doubts...he leads us away from the truth, not the Lord. He will cause those feelings, not the spirit. The spirit will help you discern between truth and untruth, BUT if your mind is already made up you think something is wrong, the spirit cannot MAKE you know it is right.
And what is this feeling of it being wrong? Seriously, I am wondering...how you are feeling when you feel it is wrong?
I know you have asked lots of questions about feeling the spirit and it is clearly on your mind... there is in my opionion a different spirit felt when it is not the Holy Ghost... that different spirit causes us to question things in a way we normally wouldn't, to be confused, to have serious doubts... that is satan. Maybe you don't want to hear that, but that is my opinion. I believe Satan is the one who makes a person feel that the Book of Mormon just ';can't be true'; and ';there's just too much I don't understand';... that all leads to doubt and then disbelief. That is not how God teaches.
Too many mistake the spirit of the antichrist for the spirit of God, simply because they do not know God.
I am saddened to see such nonspiritual views here by both the Bible believers and by the Book of Mormon believers.
I Thes 5:19-21 tells us that the Holy Spirit wants us to test everything and to ACCEPT that which is good, beautiful and true. We are to read all sciptures openly first, pray for enlightenment and not pre-judge them. I find some truths to share from all major world scriptures in use today.
The Spirit of Truth and the Holy Spirit both and as One Combined Holy Father-Son-Spirit of Truth always teach us to ';LOVE our enemies';; and thus this includes all of the EQUALLY Christian (in alphabetical order) Catholics, Christian Science, Jehovah's Witnesses, Jesusonians , LDS-Mormons, conservative and liberal and moderate Protestants, Quakers, Seventh Day Adventists and many others. All of these Christians are individually EQUALLY LOVED INFINITELY by our REAL GOD of love !!
JESUS said, when being nailed to the cross of unspeakable torture: ';Father, forgive them; for they know NOT what they do.'; This shows His Infinite LOVE !! Then John 12:32 !!!
The Living Jesus Christ here fully in Spirit (John 16:7-16) is love-calling all of us who love Him to cease this ungodly condemnation of our EQUAL Christian Brothers and Sisters in the Family of God ! If you all do not unite soon, you know what will happen ... either Islam or secular humanism will win over the world. Would that be better?
Count the cost of not obeying Jesus Christ here and now.
Jesus unites, many human-made-up doctrines and creeds divide us Christians into now 38,000 or more different contending and competing religious groups !

I doubt you have read, studied and prayed about the book of mormon - but that being said - the Holdy Ghost will only provide confirmation of the truth on questions that you sincerely ask about. Search your heart first, before you come here to insult others.
and find a new question
where's your proof anything you just said is true?
I think its quite arrogant of you to say you know the Book of Mormon is false even though you haven't even read it, and basing your knowledge on what others tell you, and to mock those who actually read the Book of Mormon believe with all their heart that it too, is the Word of God.
You never read the Book of Mormon.How can the Spirit testify of its truth if you never read it? Can the Spirit testify of the New Testament if you never read it either? Of course not. Maybe because to read the Bible and the Book of Mormon takes time and work and thought. Nobody is forcing it down our throats. Nobody is warping our minds to believe it is true. It's just between us and God. No middleman is there to force us to believe it is true. We have to find out for ourselves.
However, your believing all this comes from your pastor, who apparently influenced you to throw the book away. The Spirit confirmed that? How do you know that the Pastor who ';healed'; wasn't unleashing the power of Satan to influence you to throw the Book of Mormon away. HOW DO YOU KNOW? The fact is you do not know.
Careful about what you judge! The scriptures are full of that warning. How would you feel at the end of this life that the Book of Mormon is indeed the word of God, yet you will have to stand before Christ and explain why you threw His word the garbage? How can you be sooo sure this won't happen?
Isa. 5: 20
20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for in light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
From what you described, I can only infer that the Book of Mormon came into your thoughts because your pastor TELLS YOU that the Book of Mormon is false. How does he knows this? Probably not because he read it, but because its commonplace to say this. The Book of Mormon is an actually threat to your pastor's livlihood. If his congregation finds out for themselves that the Book of Mormon is true, he will lose members of his congregation, and therefore, will lose money!
Think about it, its what Paul meant by his term of ';filthy lucre'; in 1 Tim 3:3,8, Titus 1:7,11, and 1 Peter 5:2.
I can testify to you that the BoM is the word of God, it does not contradict the teachings of Bible. You can find out for yourself, as millions have if you humble yourself and seek to know that, and seek to find out with real intent.
Jesus said in Matt 7:14 that ';Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.';
I firmly believe that God revealed the Book of Mormon in this day to see which of His children love Him enough, believe in Him enough to WANT more of His Word, and to seek it and embrace it. Yet so many Christian won't even touch the BoM simply because their pastors tell them not to, mainly so they won't lose money. If those Christians love God sooo much, wouldn't they be so excited to possibly have such a blessing to receive more of His word? Think about it.
You are not giving the Book of Mormon a fair chance. It is the same Spirit as in the Bible. I have read both.
Cheers!
If you prayed and got that answer, then that is right for you. The Savior said that his sheep know his voice.
You've GOT THE SPIRIT ';Alright'; !
I doubt you've ever prayed once about the book of mormon.
There are so many doctrines of Mormonism that are unscriptural, I don't know how to begin. I would suggest reading the book ';Lifting the Veil of Polygamy';. It should be available in bookstores now. (Sorry, I can't remember the author.) It will give you great insights into what is wrong with the Mormon religion and why it doesn't jive with the Bible.
You are correct in that the Holy Spirit is One with the Father and the Son, and they NEVER contradict each other. So if you find any new teaching that contradicts Scripture (The Bible), then you know it is a false teaching. The Holy Spirit Himself inspired the very writers of the Bible. Joseph Smith claimed to have gotten his ';inspiration'; from an angel. But even Satan can manifest himself as an angel of light, and lead people astray, so we need to test the doctrine.
If you know the doctrines of the mormons, you will see clearly that they contradict the Bible.
Clearly, one did not come from God.
The Holy Spirit is telling you the truth, Jesus said this : Revelation 22:18 For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book:
The book of Mormon is an addition to the Bible and therefore not true. Joseph Smith was a con-man. He was convicted of bunko in NY state and run outta more than one town for selling moon stones. ( fortune telling stones) With one of these moon stones he alledgedly found the tablets of Maroni. Funny thing ,no one else ever saw them. I call it Joe Smith's Myth.
