Indeed Libby, and just those two verses totally blast LDS claims of multiple gods period.

You would think so! I remember Isaiah 44:6...

"Thus saith the LORD the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God"

hitting me like a ton of bricks.

But, the LDS apologists have, supposed, "answers" for everything...

Uh-huh. Even when they make no sense. I like something I heard Dr. Martin say on a video. He said that no one with a good working knowledge of the Bible could ever be in a cult. Oh almost forgot Libby, how about the references to "God our savior" or savior God? wow that speaks volumes in those few words, eh?

He is not Papa. The Pheonix is Papa.

I believe that is correct. But I realize the similar screen names are confusing. Just a coincidence, as far as I know.

Yes, it is a little confusing.

Yup, I guess even wrong answers are better than no answers to them

Only on the most superficial, and therefore incorrect, level. To real Bible scholars, who have done real research into the history of Israel's theology, it's your theory that gets blasted out of the water. Totally. Do you you need some help locating such research?

Nope I think I have pretty much had it all expressed to me, thanks for asking. Until one understands who God is he cannot be saved. All I want is to help more people understand and I have another new thread I am about to start that might be of interest to you. (no spoilers tho )
