No disrespect taken. I don't believe that what I have told you goes against the bible. For the very reason that we have differing interpretations of scripture are prophets and apostles necessary as was in the Bible. We have to proceed on the assumption that it is translated correctly and unmodified by scribes and clergymen through time.
For this reason did the Lord prepare another testament to come forth as the Book of Mormon. If this book is true, then Joseph Smith, who translated it (only one translation) was indeed called of God to restore His church with apostles and prophets to lead the church as they did in the times of the Bible. Our entire faith hinges on these facts. That is the challenge that we issue to the world and our evangelical mission to share that message.
