Lifting The Veil

It’s one thing to have religious differences—it’s another to stake your soul on teachings that contradict the very Word of God. As someone deeply committed to biblical Christianity, I believe it’s time we stop tiptoeing around the hard questions when it comes to the claims of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS).

He is eternal. “In the beginning the Word already existed. The Word was with God, and the Word was God” (John 1:1, NLT). He didn’t become God—He is God. Co-eternal with the Fathe...
