So now the big question is, if others agree that you are either 100% true or 100% false, how do you reconcile people that hold a belief about Jesus that might not be held by others? Are they therefore in 100% error?
If a Baptist person believes that Jesus might've been married on earth, does that make him 100% in error about Jesus, on every issue, so as to merit God sending him to Hell for eternity?
How do LDS-critics like James Banta justify having such extremist views and not see how such extremism might very well destroy their own theological paradigm if applied logically to all religions, not just Mormons.
If aBaptist hold false doctrine about the nature and Person of God they are 100% in error YES.. There is no salvation in any thing or any one other that Jesus.. For instance if you believe thatthere is anything you can do that makes you acceptable to God you are in error and will be ****ed.. This is justifed in the Bible..
Acts 4:12
Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
And from Jesus Himself:
John 14:6
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
And who does the Bible say that Jesus is
Isaiah 9:6
For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counseller, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
Anything that teaches Jesus is less than this in any way is 100% in error.. Joseph Smith and all who follow his teachings are in serious error!!! IHS jim
