Last week I discovered that the Mormons are now evangelizing over social media. Not knowing what was going down I friended a chap who I later found out friended me so he could evangelize me. Below is the conversation. I offer this as an example of how these haters of Christ should be dealt with.
Mormon Elder Hansen (Hereafter MEH)
Hey! Thanks for accepting my friend request! My name is Elder Hansen and I’m a missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ!🙂 With all the chaos and uncertainty in the world right now, I wanted to ask if there is anything I can do to help you? Is there anything I can pray for?
Rev. Bret McAtee (Hereater RBM)
Yes … you can pray that the Spirit of the Lord Christ might give you repentance so that you might escape the false religion you are currently in right now. As it stands right God hates you and intends to punish you without end.
MEH
Woah ok sorry to bother you
RBM
Not a bother at all. My love for your compels me to seek the best for your soul. You are in a cult and I’d like to see you come out of it.
MEH
I mean I appreciate it but what makes you think it’s a cult?
RBM
1.) Claims a new and improved Revelation that supersedes the Bible
2.) Denies the eternal divinity of Jesus Christ claiming that he was once a man like us.
3.) Claims that Jesus and Lucifer are Brothers.
4.) Denies the Holy Spirit is a person of the trinity opting instead to speak of him as a impersonal force.
5.) Just as God was once man so man can become God. (Eternal progression)
6.) Mormons deny the trinitarian character of the One God.
7.) Mormons believe in salvation by works. This is contrary to Christianity which teaches salvation by grace alone.
8.) Both Allah and Joseph Smith were sex predators who created a pseudo moralistic polygamy cult to supersede Christianity based on a false angel revelation producing a contradictory and idiotic book.
This will serve as a starter.
MEH
Ok I won’t lie to you I do believe in at least one of those things but isn’t a cult like a group that controls the members and won’t let them leave and stuff?
RBM
Have you ever tried to leave?
MEH
No but it would be very easy. People leave all the time.
RBM
Well… you will have to excuse me. I knew personally a couple who went through Hell trying to leave.
But that really is irrelevant. It is a cult because it teaches doctrines at variance with Biblical Christianity.
MEH
How do you know all those things you just numbered?
RBM
Dude … you cast out a hook with some bait on it.
I’ve got bad news for you. You now have Moby Dick and Jaws on the end of your line. Time to try and reel me in Son.
I’ve been over this territory countless times. Studied it. Am familiar with your Holy Books. Witnessed to your fellow cult Members. Taught series of lectures more than once on Mormonism and its heresy.
MEH
Wow sounds like hard work
RBM
It has been a labor of love out of love for God and hope for lost people like you and yours.
MEH
Idk man it sounds like you’re just justifying taking your anger out on other people who believe differently than you
Where you once a member? Sorry only asking because there is also a man from the Book of Mormon with your name.
RBM
People who believe differently from what the Scripture teaches need to be rebuked. We see that in Scripture all the time. Paul even rebuked Peter because Peter was “in the wrong.” And Paul was likely angry when he did so. Paul rebuked Alexander the Copper-smith, Demas, John Mark, and likely others. There is nothing wrong with anger in the least. I am quite angry that you’re seeking to lead other people to hell.
I have never been a member of the Mormon synagogue of Satan … but I am someone who had to know Mormonism in order to make sure people I was responsible for didn’t get caught up in that monstrous and ugly lie.
Please repent son.
MEH
When you say “know Mormonism” do you mean read the Book of Mormon?
RBM
Book of Mormon and the Pearl of Great Price.
MEH
The whole thing?
RBM
Yes, as well as the Bible several times.
MEH
Wow that’s actually impressive
I haven’t read all of the bible so I respect that
RBM
And in comparing the Mormon works with the Bible the Mormon works are obviously worthy of only the Garbage can like the Koran and the bhagavad gita.
I implore you, for the sake of your own soul, come out from Mormonism before it is too late and you can never get out because your mind has become so bent.
I know your training teaches you to find common ground with me, and to keep the conversation going so as to make a friendship but I am telling you that will not work with me. I am going to keep insisting that you are in mortal danger from a justly wrathful God and only be repenting will you be safe.
MEH
Well you got me there haha I was going to try and find some common ground
Do you live in Charlotte?
RBM
Thereabouts
MEH
Well I’m not trying to force you into anything but would you willing to meet up sometime and talk about what you and I believe? I know there are a LOT of differences and I’m sure there is nothing I can do to change your mind but I’d like to know more about what you LOVE about the gospel and not what you hate about my church. I’m certain you are a nice guy even though you keep bashing me so I want to learn from you.
RBM
I know your techniques and I know this is just one of them to try and continue to lure me into the web. I’m not interested in seeking common ground with you. Even if we meet all I am going to repeatedly tell you is that God is justly wrathful towards you and you have no hope except of repenting of your Mormonism and trusting Christ alone as your savior. Your good works of evangelizing, abstaining from Caffeine, getting married in the Temple, etc. will only be weights that damn you even more. You must trust Christ as the eternal son of God who was never man, per your wicked Mormon religion, and learn of Him.
