God is Good!!!!!!! Thank you for your life journey. Amen!!
Grew up in a town along the Mormon Trail.
95% Mormans, including Jack Mormons.
Very judgemental, most of them are.
Generally nice enough and good citizens.
Far preferable to Muslim culture, which I was immersed in for 13 years via work.
What a fantastic interview …praise be to Jesus that we now as Christ followers have this man to spread God’s word into this awful world!
It’s not the Lord they speak with…it’s the devil. Y’all should hear that guys testimony that saw Jospeh Smith in hell! Look it up!
Just because you left Mormonism doesnt mean you have to become a TRINITARIAN. THE BIBLE TEACHES THERE IS ONE GOD, JESUS IS HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON ( BORN 2000 YEARS AGO) RAISED AND GLORIFIED, RULING N REIGNING AT GODS RIGHT HAND, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT IS THE SPIRIT OF GOD.
What a beautiful testimony and witness❤
I watched from GABORONE SOUTHERN AFRICA, thank you for finally and finally meeting the truth and be truly blessed.
the sermon you talked about is the same here in Africa a in the whole world so it has to be the only true revelation of God into our lives . Thank you, your story is very inspirational.
Praise God
AMEN!
Jesus Christ is the Transparent Viamedia of God. He is a man fully empowered by God .. God spoke through Jesus. He was a true masaya. He did say "Go and Sin no more. He also said.. "Be as pure as your father in Heaven." He said though shalt not kill" The one thing I can not except about most so called Christians. Is they do not understand the mercy of not killing animals. And not eating animals. Jesus has revealed to me that we should not eat flesh. There are so many bible verses in this regard. And God does not eat meat. Isiah 6.6.3 Its not that here is nothing we can do. ITs not by WORKS alone. But still we should continue to. please and serve him more and more. Loving God more and more is eternal. Love is eternal and expands eternally. We dont do the works or service to get something from God. We do service to God, offerings to God. Jesus is giving us to God. He is showing us who God is. He is qualifying all our service to God as He is with God and knows God. If we hear from the wrong guy about Jesus we can get cheated. But if one continutes to seek out a relationship with Jesus he will show us who is who and what is what. He can show us who God is. He is Gods pure servant. Glories to Christ.
Very good talk….Faith in Lord Jesus is the only way.
I feel so very sorry for you. As a high priest your understanding of the gospel of Jesus Christ is so limited. You, as typical, attack the church for practicing polygamy at one time but ignore father Abraham and others who also practiced it command of God. You have no understanding of the purpose of tithing. You dishonored your temple covenants. You pick and pick at others without examining the Spirit the lead you to the gospel of Christ. So very sad.
I can relate to so much of what he said. I was only part of the church for 6 years as a convert but I had a big shelf from the beginning full of things that didn’t quite sit right. I finally left the church last October. I feel free and closer to God. This just validated everything I was feeling.
Beautiful testimony
Thank you SOOOO much for your testimony. Praise God! 🙌🏻🙏🏻
was in the LDS mormon religion from 4 to 16, when i was excommunicated. brought into a room with the elders, & bishop. the only questions they asked were sexual. my parents were not allowed in the room or even the building. i never resonated with their energies from a young age i felt the , what i call insanity.
Thank you for sharing. Excellent communication of what it's all about.
Thank you so much for your testimony, Michael. Praise the wonderful name of Jesus Christ!
Keep studying the Bible for more truth…there’s more deception to work through…Jeremiah 29:11-14; Revelation 12:9, 17; 13:4-8; 14:12; 22:14; John 14:15; 15:10.
This is sad…an intelligent person who never humbled himself to accept what he was doing so he left …prayers for you
It’s really not much to be a high priest bro
I’m 28 and lm a high priest and l serve in a bishopric too. You speak of it as is you were so high up
Amen!
I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints for 45 years now and I still feel that the true Jesus Christ leads this church. All those who are contrary has chosen the ways of Lucifer of old, who has been the opposition to God even in the pre-existence. Just a question to this speaker – who organized the group you now joined with? By what authority? And, which Bible do you use from among all translations being used by so many Christian denominations who also claim that their outfit is the most correct and that the other is wrong, using the Bible but has different kinds of interpretations and they contradict each other. I may say that the wisdom of men is foolishness to God.

Tithing = 1/10. It is a commandment. You can make up all the excuses you want not to pay your tithing and not follow the commandments of God. Choices. Tithing is the Lord's money. It is not yours. You are not authorized to reallocate the funds of the Church. If paying for the child at the Christian Children's fund was so important… you could have mowed lawns on the weekend or shoveled snow as an example. $35 a month???
And you want to complain because they give you a locker with a key? Ever hear about wolves in sheep's clothing??? LDS people can be just as wicked as anyone on the earth. At least they gave you a key with a locker that locks to protect you, rather than trust that everyone who proclaims worthiness is worthy… they play on the side of caution. Just think about the LDS person who made a decision to bring a camera into the temple to video the endowment. Very trustworthy wouldn't you say?
Handshakes… there are no handshakes!! Be honest here. Handclasps…. yes… handshakes… NO. Handclasps, sticks or rocks broken in half were often used as an instruments in making covenants with other people. The instrument was used to PROVE that you or someone you knew… was involved in the covenant that was made lets say between one man and another… or maybe even family members. If you broke a stone in half or a stick in half or had a prearranged handclasp… then whether it be you or a child of yours that had the matching stone or stick or the right handclasp… then you knew you were dealing with the right people. Covenants with other people were often passed down from Generation to generation. We use pen and paper theses days with a notary and contracts. So until you realize that we were doing things like they did in the past, you will have the wrong idea about it. If you study enough about the Masons who believe that they were part of God's temple making crew… they would have made covenants with others. We use them as examples of Covenants we make with God and other people.
I was surprised that you probably didn't know that the new names were all planned out ahead of time. The people running the temples knew that people would forget their name. So they had 365 names assigned a specific date in the calendar. One extra name for a leap year. That way… to find your name they did not need to keep it in a file with your name on it… all they needed was the day you received your endowment… and they knew your name. Pretty smart of them eh?
The "Penalties" were not instituted by Joseph Smith. Those only came to fruition after the Murder of Joseph Smith. The Saints had felt so betrayed by what happened that these were added to the ritual giving people something similar to the way children when trying to explain to someone how important it was to believe what they were saying they would say something like… "I'm telling the truth. Swear to God and hope to die… stick a needle in my eye". So these penalties were used to help the saints verbalize something against handing over the parts of the endowment to outsiders which then they would just mock us. But as time went along… today's people are not as passionate about keeping the things of the temple inside the temple only. So in this day and age… the penalties were done away with. Remember… they were not part of the original endowments… only given after Joseph was murdered.
Do you have the ability to see the results of the future concerning all things? As an example… do you know what would have happened to the LDS if the Priesthood would have been given to those members with colored skin during the Civil War? To declare that they had the power and authority from God to act in his name for colored or white? I believe it was the Lord who stopped it not because he did not want people with color to have the priesthood… he probably had some kind of foreknowledge of what would happen to the Latter Day Saints… both white and colored with all that additional hate in the world over people of color. Was there not both white and black who were killed by people who had their own opinions about how those of the black race had their place in this world. Talk about putting a bullseye on their back for not only being black and being LDS with the priesthood… I feel there would have been much more aggression toward them than what there already was. And it was after the civil rights movement that happened in America that opened up the door to allow all worthy male members to have the priesthood of God regardless of skin color. It will be interesting to get to the the other side and see the real reasons for all things that happened… from God's point of view. I wait for that day!!!
We are not trying to SAVE THE DEAD through the endowment. You don't seem to have a real grasp on what the endowment is all about. NOTHING about being SAVED!!! Everything beyond the baptismal font and confirmation…. is all about EXALTATION… NOT SALVATION. It is all about choices. To be saved means you will not be punished for the sins you committed… but that alone does not tell you where you will live in the Kingdom of God. Did Jesus not tell us… THERE ARE MANY MANSIONS IN MY FATHER'S KINGDOM. You think every mansions is the same? NO… there are people who don't want everything a mansion has to offer. Some would be much happier in a little cabin in the woods. Exaltation is all about WHERE you will live in the Kingdom of God… and who you will be living with. Your family… or just yourself.
Is baptism required to be saved??? Yes or No??? Is repentance required before baptism… or after??? Do you think that the dead are taught the gospel if they never heard of the Gospel of Christ? Ask yourself this question… why did the Apostle Peter write about Christ going and preaching to the dead??
1 Peter 4:6 For for this cause was the gospel preached also to them that are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit.
The only place that people who have not heard about the Gospel before they died… will hear it on the other side. And then they too can either accept or reject it. If they accept it… they will also accept the baptism and confirmation done for them. If they do not accept it… then they will NOT accept the baptism and confirmation. It is really quite simple.
In all the times I have asked about Polygamy… not once did I receive a response like you did. To say that it was not of him. From the time I joined the Church in 1977 while in the Army in Germany… I came to an understanding that the Lord can command it… and the Lord can command it not… to not start it or to stop it. I came to understand that the Lord would command it… when his people were surrounded by those not of the faith who believe and worship God…. and practiced their faith. But if they were surrounded by people who were of the same faith or same family… then he required it not. And truly… it had more to do with the birthrate of the family was greater with more than one wife was taken. That is when he commanded it. And when there was no need to increase the birthrate because all in the same area were of the same family… then it was not required… and he would go so far as to command it not!
When one rebels against God and what they have been taught… what kind of spirit do they have? Here is the rub. Either Joseph Smith was a prophet of God and did everything that God wanted him to do regarding the restored Gospel…. or he was not. If he was…. then you and your family will have to deal with that.
People who have died, crossed over to the other side… will often come back and say some of the very things that we LDS believe. these of course are called Near Death Experiences. I have yet to hear an NDE that defiles or negates LDS teachings. Example… we are divine! In other words… we are the children of God. Christians do not believe that. We were created they say. They say that we say Jesus was a created being. That is not true. Joseph Smith taught many things on a one on one basis that he did not teach from the pulpit. As an example..Eliza R Snow said he taught her about a doctrine he call MMP's. There are many who come back from their NDE and bring up that the doctrine is true. Only they don't call it MMP's. They have a different name for it. Yet.. it is the same doctrine.
So… I have listened to what you have said… and I do not agree with many of the things you said. But you have a right to your own opinion and the right be taught whatever you want to believe. The day is not far off that you will know the truth of all things. I am sure you are hoping it all lines up with what you currently believe in.
A wonderful testimony. Thank you for posting! You know, it's crazy but true that when I first became a Christian I was having trouble finding a good church and sampled quite a few. One of them I attended because Jesus Christ was in its name (The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints). It was in the town in which I was born — Denton, Texas. I had no idea it was Mormon and Jesus was new to me but I loved Him SO much and was totally convicted that He was and is IT. The Sunday School part they were saying you had to be married to get higher up in heaven and that just didn't sound right to me at all. Then I went to the main service no one even MENTIONED Jesus. A lot of people were standing up to give their personal witness and they ALL witnessed for Joseph Smith — who died over a hundred years ago and was not resurrected — and NOT ONE person witnessed for Jesus. Mormons have told me that could not have happened — but I'm telling the truth. It was approximately February or possibly March of 1983. I never returned there again. I have always felt that that religion is incredibly hypocritical to put Jesus Christ's name in the name of their church and they don't follow Him. They were the ones that are MISSING OUT, and it is so sad.
W O W, what an amazing testimony!
I always knew these things about LDS, I felt it in my spirit. It's Wonderful to see all of you "COMING OUT OF HER," [Rev.18:4] …
But the Scriptures say that "THE WHOLE WORLD IS DECIEVED," doesn't it!
Now, I Encourage All of You Wonderful people to go ALL THE WAY In Finding Truth,
Go To "The WAY!"
Be as Messiah was, a Natsarim! ❤❤
Our very own Messiah said that "I AM "The WAY" … And "in The WAY," …. And He Instructed Us to … "FOLLOW ME."
Follow where?
Follow In The WAY.
Going back to Psalms, Our Father encouraged Us, His People, to stay In His WAY.
Avoid Denominations. Right.
When Messiah returned from the earth to His Home, and the Acts 2 Fellowship was began, they followed In The WAY — Going from Home to Home Fellowshiping as the Ruach Ha'Kodesh led.
No leaders but The Ruach. Then a Remnant of the people of The WAY remained even up until Today. Today, many Remnant are here now.
Toward the end of Revelation, WHO are the Remnant People of our Father and Creator, does it say?
"THOSE WHO KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS
[His Torah] AND THE TESTIMONY OF MESSIAH.
WE NOW KNOW THAT WE HAVE BEEN LED ASTRAY BY SCHOOLS, SCIENCE, CHURCHES, AND ALL MANNER OF LEARNING. I CHARGE EVERYONE TO SEARCH FOR THE TRUTH KNOWING THAT YOU NEED NON-BIASED RESOURCES, EVEN the KJV has been changed by the elites, by the Jesuits of the RCC.
Salvation is simple. It's Satan who is trying trough men to complicated it.
They need to make a movie about this family. They should call it, coming home.
Polygamy was stopped by the church before it was stopped by the united states….btw…most Mormons do read the Bible, the book of Mormon, pearl of great price and the doctrine&covenants…god gave us all free will…he made a choice..and no god would never ever tell someone to tell other people to leave the Mormon church…God would allow his children to make their own choice…
The thing I saw was Jesus die to restore the image of God back to mankind Which is FatherHusband MotherWife Children not corrupt , God will send Elijah the prophet and he shall turn the heart of the father’s to the children and the heart of the children to their Fathers , lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.
What a beautiful, moving testimony. Thank you so much for sharing it. Praise be to our God for opening eyes and saving you and your family.
NO ONE CAN WORK YOUR WAY INTO GODS KINGDOM. BY GRACE, JESUS PAID THE PRICE.AMEN🙏🥀🫶
CONNVERT IN 1978..LEFT AFTER I READ JOHN NEW TESTAMENT " IF ANY ONE SHALL ADD UNTO THESE WORDS OR PREACH ANY OTHER DOCTRINE, THE PLAGUES OF THIS BOOK BE ADDED UNTO THEM. ITS FALSE..HOW CAN GODS WORDS NOT BE ENOUGH ?? TRUST THE BIBLE ALONE🙏🥀🫶
Why is it these “ex Mormons” always look so “rode hard and put away wet?”
Just wanted to say even though this was a super long video, I really enjoyed this testimony, and just wanted to thank the interviewer for letting the old man tell his whole story.
Thank you for your testimony. There are so many people who are former lds and flds who have regular podcasts and are wandering without the correct story of God and Jesus. I am sure they will welcome you . The ones I listen to are cultsvto consciousness, growing up polygamy and Amanda Rae.
The doctrines of Christ as taught in the Book of Mormon and reiterated by modern day prophets are true. The people and leaders aren't perfect. My experience is that the covenant keeping members of the Church of Jesus Christ are some of the happiest and the best people on earth. Yes- there are always those exceptions. Never known anyone to leave the church that is happier than before, but usually the contrary. Not going to condemn those that leave, but only to say most likely they have been deceived in one way or another. Stay true, focus on the basics and you can generally overcome your doubts.
My deceased husband was a Mormon . I never felt comfortable going to his church my mantra was to the law and to the testimony if they speak not according to them there is no light in them. I couldn't accept Joseph Smith as a prophet of God. I tried reading the book of Mormon and could not get into it. It was boring to me
The Bible states “come out of Her my people” meaning stop attending Churches that teach false doctrine… pls find a Bible believing Church ⛪️ that sticks to the word of Christ Jesus from the Holy Bible ❤😊❤
There’s more of us?🥺❤️ I was raised mormon too but came to Christ in 2018. I thank God for his mercy and grace over me. Hallelujah😭 praise be to Jesus for all of us who have come to know him and may many more be saved in Jesus name🙏🏻
😅
1 of the biggest red flag of mormon teachings is u can become a God, which contradicts Yahweh's declaration in, ISAIAH 45: 5.
So if Yahweh was once a man who became God, so then who was his God who created Yahweh? What was the name of his God? What was the name of the planet he lived in? So, if Yawheh's God was once a man who became God, what was the name of that God? What is the name of the planet he used to lived in? So then this reversed in time false teachings by satan himself never ceases..,and there is no definite 1 True God who has no beginning & no end. Yeah.., this very teaching itself is from Satan.
Like all religions founded by nut jobs who wanted access to multiple women, it just doesn’t translate to the modern times.

Riddle me this Christians?
LDS have all these in spades 😁 & more
Plus we don't have woke pastors teaching their own vision
We don't have any Gay pastors on the pulpit you have opened the floodgates and put the Bible down concerning this
We don't have a paid ministry we volunteer our time & talents
Even the children can teach the congregation no ones above each other
We have a womens organization solely run by women
No money goes into the pockets of our Bishops
Prosperity Gospel is falsehood from the devil himself
God does not care if your rich or poor success in this life does not equal to how much money you have
We claim the privilege of worshiping Almighty God according to the dictates of our own conscience, and allow all men the same privilege, let them worship how, where, or what they may.
By thease comments you definitely don't follow live what you believe give us the same God given right
Jehovah Witnesses also is a cult. You have to work for it.
