Every Christian shld read The Book of Mormon at least once, with honest intent. It’ll make you love Jesus even more. It will expand your faith in him. It will help you see the enemy’s traps more clearly. You don’t have to join the Church, but it’s a good book. You should read it.

Paul denied Christ. Still a prophet. Jonah ran away. Still a prophet. David had a man killed in battle to steal his wife. Still a prophet. Prophets are not perfect people. They’re people called to do a specific work for God, in spite of their humanity. Joseph Smith was a prophet.

The Book of Mormon is not an adapted Bible. It’s a different book written by other prophets on a different continent who also worshipped God & Jesus Christ. If you believe Jesus came for the whole world, expect that others in the world knew of him. Read it & see for yourself.

Tithing is God’s requested meager portion of what was already his, while he lets me use the rest. Catholics tithe to God also. What happens to my tenth after I pay it is not my burden, it’s the Church’s. It’s a big stewardship, & incidentally, they do tremendous good with it.

The Church has a lot of money bc they’ve been prudent stewards for 150+ years. Evidence proves them to be exceptionally careful, nothing recklessly wasted or spent on self-indulgence. It’s used for public good. So critics must stick to the script that merely having money is evil.
