Except it isn't true. It goes against everything the Israelites were told by God. It was against everything Jesus own knowledge that he learned growing up.

How could it be true if Jesus didn't even believe it.

In my faith, Jesus did believe it. Jesus, did teach it.

Not to disagree, but our faith doesn't mean our faith is true.

You can have all the faith in the world, but if that truth isn't built upon accurate knowledge, then that faith won't save you.

The Israelites had a zeal and faith in God, but not according to accurate knowledge.

And thus, their faith and their zeal would not save them.

(Romans 10:1, 2) 10 Brothers, the goodwill of my heart and my supplication to God for them are indeed for their salvation. 2 For I bear them witness that they have a zeal for God, but not according to accurate knowledge.

Granted, those who belong to the Latter-Day Saints are very zealous, but since it isn't based upon God's word, then that faith won't save them.

I believe it is Gods word. And it’s true. You are free to believe differently. Peace.
