Mormon Coffee

Let it go. It’s still the fastest growing, wealthiest church. It seems the more you do, the less impact you have.

“…the standard of truth has been erected; No unhallowed hand can stop the work from progressing; persecutions may rage, mobs may combine, armies may assemble, calumny may defame, but the truth of God will go forth boldly, nobly, and independent, till it has penetrated every continent, visited every clime, swept every country, and sounded in every ear, till the purposes of God shall be accomplished, and the great Jehovah shall say the work is done.” - Joseph Smith, Jr.

Guess he was prophetic after all. Keep up your futile “ministry”.

Mark,

First of all, it’s a mere myth that Mormonism is the fastest growing religion. It’s growth has become somewhat stagnant, is decelerating, and the retention rate is alarming (in a negative way). I invite you to read a book by a Mormon which speaks of these problems:

The Law Of The Harvest: Practical Principles of Effective Missionary Work, by David Stewart (Amazon; online text)

Secondly, and most important, Mormonism’s growth rate and wealth have absolutely nothing to do with whether or not its claims are in fact true. Appealing to wealth and population as a measure of truth is arrogant and shows that one does not understand the power or character of God and his kingdom. Our ministry is not about numbers or money, it’s about the truth and the gospel of Jesus Christ.

God says of himself in Isaiah 43:10, “Before me no god was formed, nor shall there be any after me.” The Psalmist says of him, “from everlasting to everlasting you are God.” (Psalm 90:2)

Do you worship this God?

Grace and peace in Christ, who justifies the ungodly by faith apart from works (Romans 4:4-8),

“The Mormon Church did the proverbial face-plant… They have completely lost their direction and their guts at the highest levels! Instead of giving bold, clear answers, the resultant replies were spineless attempts at spin…” (>>)

“It may come as a shock to some who are new to the debate, but Mormonism is actually an anti-Christian religion.” (>>)

“I’ll vote for Romney—if I have to—since it will mean keeping a Democrat out of the White House. But should he become president, I, along with millions of other Christians, will expose each and every attempt by the LDS church to advance their false religion into the world, for we are aware of the potential spiritual challenges of having a Mormon in the White House.” (>>)
