Mormon Myth's appears to be a newly established blog that first posted on May 21, 2023. It operates under a pseudonymous identity, which suggests it may be a sock puppet account. This anonymity raises questions about its credibility and motives. The blog seems focused on criticizing Latter-day Saint Christians, LDS Apologists, and discrediting any reasonable defenses offered in response to critiques of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Having engaged in LDS, Reformed Theology, and Christian Apologetics for over 30 years, I have dealt extensively with textual analysis, scripture study, Christian philosophy, and LDS Church history. From this experience, it is clear that sound criticism and genuine discussion are grounded in transparency and well-researched arguments, rather than anonymity and unsubstantiated claims. The approach taken by Mormon Myth's undermines constructive dialogue and contributes to misinformation.

It is essential for readers to critically assess the credibility of sources, especially those that conceal their identities and present one-sided arguments. Engaging with respected scholars and apologists who provide transparent and well-documented insights can lead to a more informed understanding of LDS beliefs and practices.

Introduction

In Matthew 16:16-17, we witness a pivotal moment in the life of Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ. The Savior poses two crucial questions to the disciples: "Who do men say that I am?" and "Who do you say that I am?" These questions remain profoundly relevant today: Who is Jesus Christ? Peter's profound response, "Thou art the Christ, Son of the Living God," was not simply a learned answer but a revelation from the Father in heaven (Matthew 16:17).

This revelation serves as the foundation of truth on which Christ's Church is built, emphasizing the importance of personal testimony and revelation in understanding the Savior. While it is valuable to comprehend Christ's attributes and nature, true understanding comes through personal revelation and aligning it with the teachings of the scriptures. This underscores the significance of seeking our own personal testimony of who Jesus Christ is.

Today, critics continue to try to tear down and mock the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and our beliefs about Jesus Christ. They often wrongly claim that we believe in a different Jesus than the one in the Bible. This pattern is common among Evangelical Christians, from pastors and ministers to regular churchgoers, despite these arguments being already disproven.
