| | The Religion of Mormonism (The Priesthood: Mormonism's Foundation) |
 | | The double-minded god of the Mormon Church is continually concerned with the Mormon image. | | | The significance of this to the Mormon Church cannot be underestimated: | | | Mormons attempt to point out that Jesus Christ belongs to an "order" of priests of which they are heirs through their prophet. |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Mormonism |
| | According to Smith and Cowdery, the Aaronic priesthood gave them authority to preach faith and repentance, to baptize by immersion for the remission of sins, and to administer the sacrament of the Lord's Supper; the priesthood of Melchisedech empowered them to lay on hands and bestow the Holy Ghost. | | | It is of importance to bear in mind that the opposition to the Mormons in the localities where they settled is, from the contradictory and divergent statements made by the Latter-Day Saints and the neighbours not of their belief, difficult of explanation. | | | Mormonism announces as one of its principal aims the preparation of a people for the coming of the Lord; a people who will build the New Jerusalem, and there await His coming. |

| | Mormonism teaches that the true church ‘was lost after the death of the apostles, and that, after 1800 years, the true church with “authority” was restored through Joseph Smith. | | | Mormon: By modern-day revelation we know that Peter, James and John came down from heaven and ordained Joseph Smith to the Melchizedek priesthood, thereby once again restoring the church and the true authority to the earth. | | | However when you have believed and received the genuine Jesus Christ of the Bible you will have the authority (John 1:12) and the correct priesthood (1 Pet 2:9—10) of the Scriptures. |

| | The Mormon Church claims that the "other sheep" which Christ speaks of in John 10:16 are actually a nation of people that are referred to in Mormon scripture as the Nephites. | | | The Mormon God would be more aptly described with the same word that the Christ of the Bible used to describe the Pharisees of Israel. | | | Mormons, while claiming to be the descendants of the tribes of Manasseh and Ephraim, teach that until someone steps forward with a legitimate claim to being a descendant of Aaron, members of the LDS Church can act as an official substitute in that priesthood. |

| | San Diego News Notes November 1999 Letters |
| | Mormons honor four books as scripture: The Bible, The Book of Mormon, The Doctrine and Covenants, and the Pearl of Great Price. | | | It is the policy of the Mormon church that official statements of doctrine are found in only two sources: the Scriptures, and statements from the First Presidency (a President and his two counselors). | | | Unity among Mormons is as desired, and yet as elusive, as it is within Catholicism. |

| | The Mormons, of course, have a right to believe that their ceremonies are sacred, but this does not change the fact that they are secret. | | | Many members of the Mormon church maintain that the temple ceremonies are sacred and not secret. | | | This is somewhat similar to the anointing ceremony in the Mormon temple ritual. |

| | The Priesthood is conferred on male church-members beginning at age twelve by the laying on of hands of men previously ordained to the Priesthood. | | | In The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, the Priesthood is the power and authority to act in the name of God. | | | In Mormon theology when Jesus Christ comes again to personally reign on the earth, He will personally take the place of the office of the First Presidency as he did during his earthly ministry in the New Testament. |

| | If the Mormons deny that the revelations were true, they must also deny that their former prophets were inspired by God, but if they admit this, the whole structure of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Utah) collapses. | | | Mormons used the same words we use when talking about their faith, but they have completely different meanings and definition. | | | The Mormons do not since their authority rests on the Aaronic and Melchizedek priesthoods which the Scripture clearly indicates was done away with Jesus. |

| | Mormons never disavowed their belief in polygamy, but they discontinued the practice on the grounds that it conflicted with another belief involving support for 'the law of the land'. | | | The Mormon Church is like the Catholic Church, it doesn't repudiate doctrine that at one time or another were held to be revelation or absolute truth. | | | Some Mormons have put forth the rumor that the power of God was manifested as on the day of Pentecost when President Kimball gave the "revelation." Kimball himself seems to be trying to dispel this idea. |

| | While Mormon's proclaim their leaders receive constant divine revelation directly from God, many felt that this was an exceptionally long time to go without God directly addressing his "saints" in these "latter days." In addition, some believed that these revelations were published only to silence the church's critics. | | | Sealing Men to Men--An Early Mormon Doctrine: Known as the "ordinance of adoption," many Latter-day Saint men and their family members were "sealed" to prominent Church leaders in the 1800s in the hopes of obtaining a better position in this life and the life to come. | | | 'The Mormon church is trying to say to the new people coming into the church, as well as to the larger American society, that there was nothing questionable in the Mormon past,. |
