Interaction with Mormon elders on the street.

Image
Jeff Durbin of Apologia Radio does a great job of working with Mormon elders on the street.  You'll notice that he's memorized a number of references.  That may be a bit challenging for most people to accomplish but I'd like you to pay more attention to his attitude than his arguments.  Even if you don't have all the references memorized you can still have his patience and compassion when you interact with Mormon elders.

Dr. James White: Is Mormonism Christian

This is an excellent video with some clips showing how the Latter Day Saints claim to be Christian and why that is not true.

DNA vs. The Book of Mormon

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=svfxSscxh8o This is an excellent video about the problems with the Book of Mormon. A question you might want to ask a Mormon is: "Why doesn't the DNA research evidence not support the claims of the Book of Mormon at all when it does confirm the Jewish connections of a tribe in Africa for instance and can even document the Levitical line of priests?"

True Jesus, who is he? CARM

True Jesus, who is he? CARM This article gives some good support for the question, "Do you pray to Jesus?" Few cultists will pray to Jesus. Bring up the scriptures to correct them if they say they shouldn't pray to Jesus. 1 Cor 1:1,2 A related question, "Do you call Jesus your Lord and your God?" Why not? Thomas did. John 20:28

Deity of Christ: Case Closed

http://www.str.org/publications/deity-of-christ-case-closed#.UzGZuYUzl_M This is a very interesting and useful tactic in demonstrating the deity of Christ but I wouldn't use it in a first encounter because the overall tactic is to go after the weaker areas first, the ones they don't have all their defenses up for. Go around the Maginot Line, as it were. Still, this is a very important tool in the arsenal of defending the deity of Christ thanks to Greg Koukl.
