Why should we pick YOURS?
Protestants, this thread is for you to tell us why we should choose <insert favorite Protestant sect/movement here> over the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Objective reasons preferred, as opposed to subjective opinions and personal beliefs.
Sorry about what that UNholy spirit told you. . .

Not true at all. As mormons you are dead, lost heathens. You would not want to become a 'protestant,' a category invented by the roman catholics WHICH MORMONS ARE CONSIDERED TO BE PART OF BY MOST OF THEM. That category was made-up by the catholics to include ALL NON-CATHOLIC RELIGIONS that claim to be Christian. Mormons are just sloppy with their word-choices much of the time.
Because the Holy Spirit never testifies of that which is from the devil, I LOVE being a TRUE NEW TESTAMENT CHRISTIAN.

cog can't deal with the TRUTH.

God told me this is His church. That's reason enough. If God says something is true, that thing is true. You can't disprove God because you'll be wrong every time.
EXCEPT that THE REAL GOD told me (AND MANY OTHERS) that YOUR god LIED. He showed me MANY places where joey smith contradicted himself, contradicted what THE REAL GOD had said in the Bible, etc.
I'll believe the REAL God of the Bible.
Did you just say we can't worship? Pretty sure the Cons***ution disagrees. Anyone can worship anything anywhere. We worship God the Father.
Yet you SAY you 'have to do with' only Him. THEN you try to tell us Jesus is ANOTHER GOD and the Holy Spirit is a THIRD GOD
THEN your cult tells you that there are MANY true gods on MANY PLANETS and THAT YOU CAN BECOME A GOD YOURSELF.
The GOD OF THE BIBLE says:
Isa 43:10-11
10 "You are My witnesses," says the Lord,
"And My servant whom I have chosen,
That you may know and believe Me,
And understand that I am He.
Before Me there was no God formed,
Nor shall there be after Me.
11 I, even I, am the Lord,
And besides Me there is no savior.
NKJV
Isa 44:6
6 "Thus says the Lord, the King of Israel,
And his Redeemer, the Lord of hosts:
'I am the First and I am the Last;
Besides Me there is no God.
NKJV
Isa 44:8
8 Do not fear, nor be afraid;
Have I not told you from that time, and declared it?
You are My witnesses.
Is there a God besides Me?
Indeed there is no other Rock;
I know not one.'"
NKJV
You worship a gigantic Godlike monster called the trinity. You say you don't worship the Holy Ghost but God only and then turn around and say they're all supposedly one God of one substance.
The Father is God
Jesus is God
The Holy Spirit is God
THEY ARE ONE GOD (see the p***ages above. . .ONLY ONE GOD EXISTS ANYWHERE)
We label that 'Trinity.'
Not godlike moster. Not 'saying we don't worship' God. NONE of the trash-talk you like to make about God. SIMPLY THE TRUTH
Each of us members of Jesus Christ's church have given reasons to join His church.
Each of us CHRISTIANS have been given reasons BY GOD NOT TO join joey smith's religion.
We've given evidence that the teachings are true; however, truth is ultimately found through the Holy Ghost answering our prayers to the Father.
You were given a 'tummy twitch' by some demon, NOT BY THE GOD OF THE BIBLE, since your false gods, false prophets (who can't prophesy), and false christ are all creations of joey smith, not from the BIBLICAL GOD AT ALL.
If not from THE GOD OF THE BIBLE, then most likely from a DEMON.
Try asking God if the Book of Mormon is true with an OPEN MIND and open heart instead of saying "OK God, I already believe that book is false. Don't tell me it's true because if it is, that means I'm wrong and that just can't happen." Try asking "Is the Book of Mormon from you?" A simple yes or no question. Its very specific. Until then, you've not really asked God
I DID THAT, about 43 years ago, with nothing in my desire other than to serve and love God IN ANY PLACE HE WANTED ME TO BE. I would have become a muslim if the BIBLICAL GOD had wanted me to.
GOD TOLD ME (just as He has told countless others who have done the same thing) "NO" the book of mormon is NOT from God.
YOU CANNOT DEAL WITH THAT, CAN YOU?
