Show Notes

In studio guests Bill McKeever and Erick Johnson from Mormonism Research Ministry (www.mrm.org)
A continuing outreach to assist Christians in witnessing to their LDS friends and family.

Caller Mark from Texas has a question about the death of apparently innocent young children and infants. This topic is related to that which is called “Theodicy.” http://carm.org/dictionary-theodicy

Matt asks his guests to explain what Mormons hope to attain here on earth and then after their death. Some very interesting details follow which demonstrate that salvation via the ordinances of LDS church is impossibility.

Caller Sam from Kuna, ID. Asks: What level of heaven would one expect to go in LDS theology if you were never baptized or accepted the LDS doctrines during your life on earth?

Caller Craig from the U.K.: Was Joseph Smith involved in occult practices?

LDS Caller Richard from Meridian, ID. Says: “I disagree with about everything you said about Mormonism.” Richard continues and rejects any final authority resting in the Bible.

Finally, Richard demonstrates his confusion and inability to reconcile his LDS beliefs with teaching of the LDS church and LDS apostles and authorities.
