Synopsis

This book is designed to help the average Christian layperson to better understand the teachings of Mormonism. It called a “crash course” because it covers a lot of ground. While this overview is comprehensive, all the chapters flow together to give you a good insight into LDS teaching and practices. All of us have Mormon friends, coworkers, or neighbors. How do we effectively share our faith with them? The first step is to try to understand their teaching and way of thinking. Then, after establishing a relationship of friendship and trust, and if the opportunity arises, we can talk about what we believe about God, Jesus, and the Bible. This book also presents an overview of the basic teachings of the Bible as it relates to specific doctrines of the LDS. If a Christian wants to share their faith, they must first understand and be clear on the teaching of God’s Word. Numerous passages are given to show what the Scriptures teach about God, humanity, law, gospel, the Bible and Jesus Christ, the Son of God. The discussions of these Bible verses seek to deepen your understanding of the Christian faith. You need to first fully understand and appreciate the good news of the gospel. You need to have a living and vibrant relationship with the Living God. After you are well grounded in the basic teachings of God’s Word, then you can discuss theological matters in a loving and winsome manner, when that opportunity arises. This is the best way to talk about God with your LDS friends. As Peter says, “Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect.”
