MORMON QUOTE
"The sheep is worthy of divine rescue simply because it is loved by the shephard".
We are not saved because we are worthy, NONE of us are worthy! This is a very dangerous doctrine telling Mormons that they are good people and good enough which is not true and telling them they are worthy of God saving them which is also untrue. It is a belief that shows a heart that is lifted up with pride. The truth is we are all born with a sinful nature. We are all sinners who are in need of forgiveness of our sins and salvation which can only come through Jesus Christ because of what He did on the cross, dying on the cross for our sins. We are saved and forgiven because of God's grace and mercy, not because we are worthy of it. Unregenerated man takes pride in their good works but to God, all our righteousness is as filthy rags. All our good works in God's eyes are just like filthy rags - useless. If you're a Mormon you need to know the truth that all your righteousness is as filthy rags. They will never save you. They will never get you into heaven - never. (Incidentally there are not three kingdoms of glory. The Mormon teaching of a three-tiered, hiarachical kingdom of God (or rather three separate kingdoms) with different degrees of glory where people go after this life is over is a lie. It's false doctrine. The Mormon celestial kingdom, terrestrial kingdom and telestial kingdom do not exist. They never have and never will) Obeying the law can't save you. Going on a mission can't save you. Abstaining from certain foods and drinks can't save you. Wearing certain undergarments can't save you. Tithing can't save you either. You can't buy salvation. You can't buy your way into heaven. Your own good works can't save you. There is not one good work you can do to get a place in heaven. Only by humbling yourself and recognising you are a lost, wretched, selfish, wicked sinner with a self righteous heart, only by recognising your true state before God as that of a wretched, wicked lost sinner and by placing your trust in the Son of God Jesus Christ who died on the cross for your sins so that you could be saved and go to heaven can Jesus Christ save you. You may think you're good but the bible says otherwise. It says that the heart is deceitful and wicked. Jeremiah 17:9 says “The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?” The bible teaches that no one is worthy to go to heaven because all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. (Romans 3 v 23) We are all born sinners and all who are unsaved are dead in their sins. So it is by faith in Christ's payment for sin that we can be saved, receive God's free gift of eternal life and go to heaven forever. (Romans 6 v 23, Matthew 25 v 46) The person who places their faith and trust in Jesus Christ for their salvation becomes born again thus passing from death to life. We can never be worthy of God's love or worthy of salvation. And we can never earn salvation, it is a free gift from God. "But that's just a licence to sin" someone says. No, it's not. God's free gift of salvation is not a licence to sin, and if you think it is with respect that's just your own self righteous, judgemental attitude speaking as you attempt to judge others by your own standards. Salvation is a free gift from God. It is impossible to earn it. The bible says "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God. Not of works lest any man should boast. (Ephesians 2 v 8 - 9) If you are a Mormon I challenge you to read your Bible fully and see if these verses are in there. Mormon, you are trying to do an impossible task, you are trying to earn your way to heaven. Sadly that is an impossible task and one that every Mormon will fail. The only way to heaven and true salvation is to humble yourself, let go of all your self effort, admit you are a lost sinner on your way to hell and in need of salvation and place your trust in Jesus Christ to save you forgetting about ALL of your works. Outside of Christ your works are useless. They are self-serving and motivated by pride and self righteousness and as such they are worthless and mean nothing. The bible says "For we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousness are as filthy rags....." Isaiah 64 v 6. If you are trying to work your way to heaven you need to realise that it can't be done and in reality you are neither worthy nor righteous. You are a sinner. The good works and 'righteous' deeds you have done as a member of the Mormon church are useless. They will earn you absolutely nothing. The only way to God is through Jesus Christ. I'm talking about the true God, not the Mormon false god, the true God. God has always been God. God did not become God as Mormonism teaches, God has ALWAYS been God. The only way to get to heaven is through the Son Of God Jesus Christ. Place your trust in Jesus Christ and Jesus Christ alone for salvation. Not the mormon false 'Jesus' but the true Jesus Christ Who died on the cross for you so that you could be saved.
