🔥 Mormonism vs. Biblical Christianity - Where Do They Stand? 🔥
In this classic Unbelievable? episode from 2014, Justin Brierley moderates a thought-provoking debate between Lynn Wilder, a former temple-recommend-holding Mormon turned Christian, and Michael Flournoy, a lifelong active Mormon.
Lynn shares her journey out of Mormonism, triggered by her son's conversion to Christianity, while Michael defends the Latter-day Saint (LDS) faith. Together, they tackle:
âś… The nature of Jesus in Mormonism vs. Christianity
âś… Grace vs. Works - How are we truly saved?
âś… The role of Joseph Smith and the Book of Mormon
âś… Allegations of racism in Mormon scriptures
âś… Doctrinal shifts, cultural influences, and theological misunderstandings
đź’ˇ At the heart of it all: Is the Mormon gospel truly biblical?
