From what I understand of the LDS church and mormonism, Jesus Christ was the literal son of God, and not God himself (as trinitarian Christians believe) So is Jesus divine? Or was/is he a man? Is the Holy Spirit not God either? What do you think, "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God," means? Is the Word, a.k.a. Scriptures, a.k.a. the Bible God? How can written words be God? Do you interpret the Word to Be Jesus? Why/Why not? If not Jesus, who is the "Word?" Also, on a slightly related note, how do you judge revelations? Since Joseph Smith had the first church-changing revelation, then some congregations voted racism/slavery out of the church later because of "revelations," what do you judge the revelations on? Does it say something about it in the Book of Mormon? Why should we believe Joseph? Don't you think he'd write a book justifying his revelations. If I said I heard God speaking to me, and I wrote some books about it based somewhat on the Scripture, how am I not to be believed, but Joseph was/is? Thank you. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Formed by God, deformed by Satan, transformed by Christ
