[dberrie2000;148653]That's a good question. But how does it test my claim?---"What is found in the Bible is also found in the LDS church."
But it does teach eternal marriage in heaven in the Bible--and the LDS teach that also.
Revelation 19:7-9---King James Version (KJV)
7 Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.
8 And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.
9 And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.
It is a false claim.. Mormonism through Joseph Smith hold that God became God.. The Bible teaches us that God has been God from everlasting to everlasting.. In all the Bible the priest duty before God was to offer sacrifice for the sin of the people, yes that included a sacrifice for leprosy.. In no way were they rulers of Israel by the virtue of being priests.. The offices of Bishop (Elder), and Deacon and the governing offices of authority in the Church.. No priesthood accompanied these offices of authority..
