How to Answer a Mormon: Practical Guidelines for What to Expect and What to Reply When the Mormons Come to Your Door

by Robert A. Morey

Do you find yourself on the defensive when a Mormon team knocks at your door? You probably Should I let them in? How can I tell them to go away without being unkind? Shall I try to witness to them? What should I say? This book tells you exactly what to expect, what to reply and how to be a witness to your faith. The first section explains an effective witnessing method and shows how the materials in the book are to be used. The second section clearly presents eight selected false prophecies of Joseph Smith, the founder of Mormonism, from documented sources. These will help you to center the discussion on the real issue, religious authority, and will become the basis for refuting the whole Mormon system and presenting the truth of the Bible. A helpful tool for evangelizing Mormons

Reviews

[Abbey · Rating 2 out of 5]

A book for conservative Christians to evangelize Mormons trying to evangelize them. I would imagine it would create a bit of a standoff at the front door! Although the author makes some harmful statements, and has a VERY bias definition of cult. It is a well researched document reviewing unfulfilled prophecies of Joseph Smith.

Fantastic book that helps Mormons to get to the foundations of what they believe - whether Joseph Smith (JS) was a prophet or not. Most mormons don't know any of the prophecies that JS made and whether or not they came true, yet his writings are foundational to their beliefs.
"If the foundations be destroyed, where can the righteous go?" Psalm 11:3
