can anyone tell me why christianity.stackexchange.com/q/103496/22319 isn't off topic/opinion based?

sorry it wasn't you, it was another user who posted 4 articles

I'm not saying you won't find/look at anti-faith sources, you have posted you are learning about faith X and then post 4-5 anti-X articles instead of 4-5 articles from faith X

if later I say the same thing in the open, again doesn't mean earlier I didn't have form, just that I wasn't visible

if I hide behind a wall and say something, it doesn't mean I don't have form, just that I'm not visible

@Wyrsa it doesn't state he doesn't have form, nor does 1 John state one has to have form. My mention is purely wording

@Wyrsa I'm fine with probing of LDS origins/beliefs. But if you are basing your knowledge of a sect/denomination off of articles that belittle, misrepresent, or attack its beliefs it doesn't look good from my point of view. If I want to understand catholicism, protestantism, etc go and ask them. Get a basis before diving in, because there is negative info out there, better to first get understanding from the sect in question

@Wyrsa the wording is important. In the first vision it is This is My Beloved Son. compare with Matt 3:17 (link in answer). Yes Satan has found linguistic loopholes, but how are you discerning that this is the case here, and not other places?

just because your/mainstream understanding of the bible doesn't line up with LDS doesn't mean it is twisting anything. This site is about learning about other faiths not disparaging one/minority because it doesn't align with your views. The same logic you are applying to the LDS (twisting scripture) can be applied to your own understanding. Accept that different people have different interpretation of scripture. Yes you believe your interpretation is correct, but so do other faiths.

In regards to Isaiah and Psalms there are multiple questions on these verses: christianity.stackexchange.com/q/24058/22319, christianity.stackexchange.com/q/81408/22319, christianity.stackexchange.com/q/54772/22319, christianity.stackexchange.com/q/2901/22319, christianity.stackexchange.com/q/78347/22319, christianity.stackexchange.com/q/73406/22319

I don't think an anti-mormon article is too relevant. If you want to talk about twisting words there you have it. IMO the fruits question (from the article) is a result generally of people saying what good has the LDS church done (if there is no good its a malicious lie), and the LDS church answers, and now its 'bad' because we're talking about it.

I'll try to find time to get a better explanation

I don't have extensive time to cross compare at the moment

from LDS perspective

I'm trying to explain the Moroni differences

my wording wasn't the best

explaining the promise

not inserting

no

Galatians*

the promises is reference to Gal 3:5,8,18,29

the first part to me is the reason

the end part is the same

more detail, still vaguely same message

if I say I'm going to lunch at McDs because I have a gift card

that is more detailed, even when not mentioned initially

if I say I'm going to lunch at McDs

if I say I'm going to lunch it has detail

like i mentioned in my answer

to me its adding detail

no JST or anything

I've seen verses 'supporting' trinity, that to me don't

to me its not

to you its a major shift

I feel like we have different interpretation of scriptures

I disagree

but not here

it does sometimes

i don't think the symbolism you imply applies here

it says fathers

or any reference to children

what verse 6, I'm not seeing that in OP

I dont' think the meaning drastically changed, from my reading he is clarifying who is being burned. Not a drastic change, it is a change, but not as big as you seem to make it, IMO

christianity.stackexchange.com/a/103116/22319 may be right, this could be an entire new revelation/prophesy separate from the one in Malachi

Luke and Isaiah. They are the same meaning, nothing was changed is not exactly true, otherwise it would be same words. why add/change words if its the same?

I disagree with answers all the time, even when well answered
