Mormons created their own Bible in direct violation to the actual BIBLE. Calling Apostolics Mormons, is carrying the charge that we have our own bible (which has been stated before) to its most offensive conclusion. Paul said let them be anathema.
These are beyond the pale and speak of utter depravity.
Not long back I made a statement about some of these churches that are PCI as no different than Methodist. CC1 took me to task. He was right. I repented.
Going over the line is one thing. Making a living, living over the line is vastly different.
On a much more important note, please pray for me, my son is watching Cinderella.

I don't mind being called Methodist....I think we have strong methodist roots. The terms Sacramentalist, Baptismal Regenerationalist, papist (derogatory term) and mormons are just being used to try to insult and bait others.
