Church of Latter Day saints

Yesterday I had the dubious pleasure of having my day disturbed by two well-dressed young men with american accents arriving on my front doorstep. Mormon missionaries. I have already dealt with how to recognise a cult on this Blog - [see posting from the 10/7/06] and they fulfil the criteria.
The Scriptures condemn them. KJV. Galatians 1:8: "But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed." [ Mormons claim their religion was founded by an angel called Moroni.]
Furthermore, in Revelation 22 it states in verses 18-19, "I give fair warning to all who hear the words of the prophecy of this book: If you add to the words of this prophecy, God will add to your life the disasters written in this book... " [Mormons consider the Book of Mormon to be at least on a par with the Bible. I managed to get hold of one from a former landlady and have never encountered such infantile twaddle.]
No mincing of words in the Scriptures, though. Nobody can misinterpret what they say, so only a liberal Christian can get around this. They do so with a well-used device - they ignore it.
