Dear Gramps, I have been trying to convince a protestant friend of mine about our belief in the godhead as being three separate beings. I have quoted to him from Genesis, “let “US” make man in “OUR” image….” for which I state...

Gramps, Thanks for your reply. But I am confused about Jesus being God. My understanding is that the Mormons teach that Jesus is God’s actual Son and that Satan is Jesus actual brother?? Is this correct? If this is correct, then how can there be a trinity of God, the...

Question Gramps, Why is general knowledge of The Father and His role not widely known? Is it Satan’s objective to keep people from revealed knowledge of Him? The main focus in the Christian world is Jesus Christ – which is not bad but without knowing the Father...
