You can take a crack at the other bonus question though, it is available to you!![]()
Perfect! You got it!GreenEyedLady said:Joseph Smith - through the medium of the Urim and Thummim - translated the [Book of Mormon] by the gift and power of God. Smith described the Urim and Thummim as "two transparent stones set in the rim of a [silver] bow fastened to a breast plate. Of couse this is totally unscriptural.
Is this good enough or do you need more details?

You can still answer the other bonus question, and if GEL or someone else doesn't get the rest of the Question Two I'll make it open for everyone (including you) tomorrow.
You have to take the blessings! It's the rule!![]()
Ok here is the final question left to answer:mesue said:okay, what's left to answer?
@@Paul@@ said:I'm going to take a WILD guess.
1) had to be written AFTER Pentecost.
2) before 70ad (which is why revelations was disputed).
3) can not contradict any other NT book.
4) ..........uh, seeing how 20 of the 27 books were widely accepted: it had to be already widely accepted and in use by the local churches.
..........really WILD guess, this is not easy to find online!!
Actually,, I found the first three on the internet... the fourth i guessed...BT said:ACK! Your hyper-dispensationalism is showing. You did get one of them though
1) Acceptance by the early church.
Is one of them.
I'm going to give up the other three because, since you can't find it on the Internet... it is unlikely to be answered(jk)
2) Apostolic author
3) Intrinsic content
4) Moral agreement
The book had to be written by an apostle, accepted by the early church as scripture, agree with all other scripture morally and doctrinally.
I'll let Pastor George elaborate if he likes.. it was his question and answers....
Take it away Pastor George.......................
