Apostasy:

(15 Questions)

 

1. The Apostasy from the Saviors original church was foretold by Prophets?

      (a) True  (b)  False

Answer: True

Ref. Acts 20:29-30

For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock.  Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them.

2 Thessalonians 2:3

Let no man deceive you by any means: for [that day shall not come], except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;

 

2. The Apostasy started:

      (a) Soon after the death of Christ (b) 100’s of years after the death of Christ

Answer: Soon after the death of Christ

Ref.  James E. Talmage JTC:745; DGSM:59

For over seventeen hundred years on the eastern hemisphere, and for more than fourteen centuries on the western, there appears to have been silence between the heavens and the earth. Of direct revelation from God to man during this long interval, we have no authentic record.  As already shown, the period of apostolic ministry on the eastern continent probably terminated before the dawn of the second century of the Christian era. The passing of the apostles was followed by the rapid development of a universal apostasy as had been foreseen and predicted.

 

 

3. Apostasy means – “A falling away or departure” from the truth?

      (a) True  (b)  False

Answer: True

Ref. Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary, © 1996, 1998 MICRA, Inc.

“An abandonment of what one has voluntarily professed; a total desertion of departure from one's faith, principles, or  party; esp., the renunciation of a religious faith; as, Julian's apostasy from Christianity.”

 

4. Christ predicted and preached about the Apostasy?

      (a) True  (b)  False

Answer: True

Ref.  Matthew 24:4-5, 9-11

4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. 5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. 9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.  10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. 11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.

 

5. Most of Christendom believes in an Apostasy?

      (a) True  (b)  False

Answer: False

Comment: Although the Protestant Reformation declared the Catholic Church to have deviated from the Early Apostalic Church, neither the Catholic Church nor Protestant Churches claim that a general apostacy took place, only that the miraculous gifts of the Spirit had ceased.

Ref. Parley P. Pratt (Key to the Science of Theology,  pp. 109-10) TLDP:29

The modern world, called "Christian," claims to have perpetuated the system called "Christianity", while, at the same time, it declares, that the miraculous gifts of the Spirit have ceased. How, we inquire, can Christianity have been perpetuated, while its virtues, its legitimate powers, its distinguishing features, its very life and essence have ceased from among men?  Or, of what use is it if it does exist?

 

6. There are only a couple of Scriptures in NT that speak of the Apostasy?

      (a) True  (b)  False

Answer: False

Comment: There are many scriptures that speak of people falling away from the faith. Here are just a few scriptures:

Ref.  Mark 13:21-23, John 4:21, Acts 20:29-30, Eph. 4:14, 2 Thessalonians 2:3

1 Tim. 1:34, 4:1-3, 2 Tim. 3:1-7, 4:3-4, 2 Peter 2:1-3, 3:3-4

 

7. The Protestant reformation resulted from the effects of the Apostasy?

      (a) True  (b)  False

Answer: True

Ref.  Milton R. Hunter, Conference Report, April 1946, p.143

The Protestant Reformation, which resulted in the establishment of numerous Christian denominations--approximately two hundred and fifty of them existing in America today--bears unimpeachable evidence to the fact that a great apostacy did occur as the Master and the prophets of old had predicted it would. Martin Luther, John Calvin, the Wesley brothers, and the other protestors against the erroneous doctrines which had corrupted Catholicism did not claim divine restoration of the Holy Priesthood nor of the priniciples and ordinances of the gospel.

 

 

8. The dark ages were a result of the Apostasy?

      (a) True  (b)  False

Answer:  True

Ref. Joseph Fielding Smith, The Signs of the Times, p.182

The so-called "Dark Ages" came about through apostasy and rebellion and rejection of the plan of salvation revealed through the prophets of Israel.

 

9. Many early members defected and left the Church from the pressures of persecution?

God the Father:

(25 Questions)

 

1. God has a body of flesh and bones

      (a) true (b) false

Answer: True

Ref. D& C 130:22 and Joseph F. Smith, Gospel Doctrine, p.466

Joseph the Prophet declared in the Book of Doctrine and Covenants (Sec. 130:22) that the Father has a body of flesh and bones as tangible as man's, and the Son of God has a body of flesh and bones, as he himself has declared that he has, and is not a mere spirit, but is a risen being, a resurrected soul.

 

2. God’s physical body is Omnipresent

      (a) true (b) false

Answer: False

Ref. Encyclopedia of Mormonism, Vol.3, OMNIPRESENCE OF GOD

Since Latter-day Saints believe that God the Father and God the Son are gloriously embodied persons, they do not believe them to be bodily omnipresent. They do affirm, rather, that their power is immanent "in all and through all things" and is the power "by which all things are governed" (D&C 88:6, 7, 13, 40-41). By their knowledge and power, and through the influence of the Holy Ghost, they are omnipresent.

Bruce R. McConkie, Doctrinal New Testament Commentary, Vol.1, p.199 - p.200

John 5:37. Seen his shape] God the Father has a shape; he is a personal being in whose image man is created. He is not a congeries of laws, floating like a fog in the universe; he is not an immaterial, uncreated, spirit essence that is everywhere and nowhere in particular present. He is Man of Holiness, a holy man, whose body has shape, occupies space, travels from place to place, and is in but one place at one time, though his influence may be felt throughout the immensity of space.

 

3. God can do anything He wants to

      (a) true (b) false

Answer: False

Comment: I guess the answer to this question really has to do with the meaning or interpretation of the word “anything”. Can God Lie-no. Can God alter/change/remove the universal laws of the universe-no. Can God change his attributes-no. Can God create matter out of nothing-no. Believe it or not, most of Christendom believes God can do all these things if He wants to, even create matter, yes even the Universe out of nothing. This concept of God has its roots in early Greek Philosophy and contributed to the great apostasy of the truth. God follows laws. God is a God of law and order. Can He change the laws that govern justice and mercy? The scriptures proclaim that were God to do this He would cease to be God.  See Alma 42:13 

Ref. James E. Talmage quotes the following:

God is Omnipotent—He is properly called the Almighty. Man can discern proofs of the divine omnipotence on every side, in the forces that control the elements of earth and guide the orbs of heaven in their prescribed courses.  Whatever His wisdom indicates as necessary to be done God can and will do.  The means through which He operates may not be of infinite capacity in themselves, but they are directed by an infinite power.  A rational conception of His omnipotence is power to do all that He may will to do. AF:40

God is omnipotent, yet He works within established parameters. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, in contrast to the views of many in Catholicism or Protestantism, does not believe in an utterly transcendent Being—a God who recognizes no limitations.

 

4. God lives on a planet called Kolob

      (a) true (b) false

Answer: False

Comment: Kolob is a planet close to God but not the planet on which God resides.

Ref. Abraham 3:3

And the Lord said unto me: These are the governing ones; and the name of the great one is Kolob, because it is near unto me, for I am the Lord thy God: I have set this one to govern all those which belong to the same order as that upon which thou standest.

 

5. Only God, His wife, and their spirit children live on His planet

      (a) true (b) false

Answer: False

Comment: To understand this question, we must look to the future destiny of our Earth. There is a false belief among some LDS members that once we become Gods, we will be given a planet on which we and our spirit children will live, thus the false concept that God and His family alone live on His planet. The correct doctrine is that we will live on this Earth in its Celestial state along with all of our righteous brothers and sisters and their spiritual posterity. This same principle applies to God. He lives on a planet along with His Celestial brothers and sisters and their spiritual offspring.

Ref. Journal of Discourses, Vol.22, p.349 - p.350 - p.351, Joseph F. Smith, January 29, 1882.  “…for those who live here in the flesh have a claim upon this earth, and upon the bodies they have occupied while they sojourned here. This earth is their home, and will forever so remain--that is, they will possess an inheritance here, inasmuch as they overcome and become the Saints of the Most High God. For it is written, that unto the Saints of the Most High, the earth and the fullness thereof shall be given, and they shall possess it forever and ever.”

 

6. God knows “everything” there is to know throughout the immensity of the Universe

      (a) true (b) false

Answer: False

Comment: The purpose of this question is to make sure that members understand what God knows or can know vs. what He does not need to know. Once again, to correctly answer this question, it’s important to define the word “everything”. If one understands this word to mean all possible data in the universe, such as the movements of the particles of matter, such as atoms, protons, neutrons, etc., throughout the universe, even areas of the universe outside the domain and stewardship of our God, then one can see that this kind of data or knowledge is not necessary for God to know. Could He know some of that info. if He needed or wanted to-Yes. Does God need to hear the prayers or understand the needs of spirits of other Gods?-no because this is not part of His stewardship. If on the other hand, the word “everything” means things pertaining to the Salvation and Exaltation of our Gods Children throughout the eternities, then God of necessity would need to know all things, for this falls under His stewardship and responsibility. It is also important to understand that all knowledge comes through the channels of the Priesthood. The most important point to understand, is that God because of His righteous use of the Priesthood, has access to all truth that he wishes to know or needs to know in order “…to bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man.” Moses 1:39

Ref. James E. Talmage quotes the following:

God is Omnipotent—He is properly called the Almighty. Man can discern proofs of the divine omnipotence on every side, in the forces that control the elements of earth and guide the orbs of heaven in their prescribed courses.  Whatever His wisdom indicates as necessary to be done God can and will do.  The means through which He operates may not be of infinite capacity in themselves, but they are directed by an infinite power.  A rational conception of His omnipotence is power to do all that He may will to do. AF:40

God is omnipotent, yet He works within established parameters. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, in contrast to the views of many in Catholicism or Protestantism, does not believe in an utterly transcendent Being—a God who recognizes no limitations.

 

7. God is the Father of our spirit bodies

      (a) true (b) false

Answer: True

Comment: Although God the Father is not the Father of our Earthly bodies, He is the Father of our spiritual bodies. The LDS church believes this to be literal. Christendom however, believes that God is our Father, only in the sense that as morals, through our righteousness and acceptance of the Gospel, we can be adapted into the family of God.

Ref. Hebrews 12:9

Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected [us], and we gave [them] reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live?

 

8. God the Father is the God of the Old Testament

      (a) true (b) false

Answer: False

Comment: The answer to this question is that Jesus Christ, is the God of the Old Testament.

Ref.  Exodus 6:3

And I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, by [the name of] God Almighty, but by my name JEHOVAH was I not known to them.

 

9. God was once a man just like us

      (a) true (b) false

Answer: True

Comment: The answer to this comes from a sermon given by the Prophet Joseph Smith at the funeral of King Follet and from a famous couplet of Lorenzo Snow

Ref. Teachings of Lorenzo Snow, p.2

"As God now is, man may be." Now, I have told you what Father Smith said to me, that I should become as great as I could want to be, even as great as God Himself. About two years and a half after, in Nauvoo, I asked Elder Sherwood to explain a certain passage of scripture; and while he was endeavoring to give an explanation, the Spirit of God fell upon me to a marked extent, and the Lord revealed to me, just as plainly as the sun at noon-day, this principle, which I put in a couplet: "As man now is, God once was; As God now is, man may be." That fulfilled Father Smith's declaration. Nothing was ever revealed more distinctly than that was to me. Of course, now that it is so well known it may not appear such a wonderful manifestation; but when I received it, the knowledge was marvelous to me. This principle, in substance, is found also in the scriptures. The Lord said to John, as recorded in the third chapter of his Revelation: "To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne." (20 July 1901, JH, p. 4.)

 

10. God wants all of His children to come back and live with him on His planet

      (a) true (b) false

Answer: False

Comment: The purpose of this question and subsequent answer is to make sure that LDS members understand that after we are resurrected and judged and become Celestial Beings, we do not go back to live with Heavenly Father. We may be in His presence for all eternity, but this does not mean that we will live with him on His planet. We may visit each other, but we will live on our planet and He will live on His planet.

Ref. Journal of Discourses, Vol.22, p.349 - p.350 - p.351, Joseph F. Smith, January 29, 1882.  “…for those who live here in the flesh have a claim upon this earth, and upon the bodies they have occupied while they sojourned here. This earth is their home, and will forever so remain--that is, they will possess an inheritance here, inasmuch as they overcome and become the Saints of the Most High God. For it is written, that unto the Saints of the Most High, the earth and the fullness thereof shall be given, and they shall possess it forever and ever.”

 

11. God created the entire universe

      (a) true (b) false

Answer: False

Comment: The belief that God created the universe is believed by most of Christendom. Catholics carry this one step further and say that He, God created the whole universe out of nothing. Despite this belief, the universal law that matter can not be created nor destroyed holds true. The correct word should be “Organized” rather then “Created”.  See the creation account in the Book of Abraham.

Ref. Encyclopedia of Mormonism, Vol.4,

The creation accounts and other texts teach that God is not a fiat creator but an organizer and life-giver, that the "pure principles of element" can be neither created nor destroyed (D&C 93; TPJS, p. 351), and that the undergirdings of eternal law, with certain "bounds and conditions," are coexistent with him (cf. D&C 88:34-45). "Omnipotence," then, means God has all the power it is possible to have in a universe—actually a pluriverse—of these givens. He did not create evil.

 

12. God has a Heavenly Father and a Savior

      (a) true (b) false

Answer: True

Comment: From a sermon that Joseph Smith offered at the funeral of King Follet, we learn that God, our Heavenly Father was once a man just like us on an Earth similar to ours. Because of this truth, we can conclude that Heavenly Father at some previous time, lived a life similar to ours and that He must have prayed to a supreme being that gave birth to him as a spirit and which He regarded as His Heavenly Father. We can also assume that He has a savior. Our future will follow the same divine cycle. When we become Celestial and have glorified resurrected bodies, our first born righteous spirit son will become the savior for our spirit children throughout the eternities.

Ref. Wilford Woodruff Diary: 7 April 1844 (2) (Sunday Afternoon), p.343–p.344–p.345–p.346–p.347 (King Follet Discourse) from the Prophet Joseph Smith.

We suppose that God was God from eternity. I will refute that Idea, or I will do away or take away the veil so you may see. It is the first principle to know that we may converse with him and that he once was a man like us, and the Father was once on an earth like us.

 

13. God the Father created our Earth

      (a) true (b) false

Answer: False

Ref. Bruce R. McConkie, Doctrinal New Testament Commentary, Vol.3, p.25 - p.26

16-17. Christ created the universe and all things that in it are, but in doing so he acted in the power, might, and omnipotence of the Father. "Worlds without number have I created," is God's language, "and by the Son I created them, which is mine Only Begotten." (Moses 1:33.) "By him, and through him, and of him, the worlds are and were created, and the inhabitants thereof are begotten sons and daughters unto God." (D. & C. 76:24; John 1:1-3; Heb. 1:2.)

 

14. God created the planet which He lives on

      (a) true (b) false (c) true only if He(God) is also a Savior

Answer: True only if He(God) is also a Savior

Comment: We learn from Moses that God created Worlds by His Son, the Savior of His spiritual children. If this principle is eternal, then we can only assume that the planet on which Heavenly Father resides was created by Heavenly Fathers Savior. The chances are very remote, but it is possible that Heavenly Father is also a Savior in that He was the first spiritually born righteous Son to His Heavenly Father thus making Him a Savior and thus He (our Heavenly Father) could have created His own planet.

Ref. Moses 1:33

"Worlds without number have I created," is God's language, "and by the Son I created them, which is mine Only Begotten."

 

15. God lives in a house on His planet

      (a) true (b) false

Answer: True

Comment: To understand if God lives in a house/mansion in heaven, we need to look to our future Celestial state. Brigham Young taught that Celestial life was very similar to earthly life in that we would live in houses. If this is our future, then it is God’s current state also.

Ref. Still looking for quote by Brigham Young!

 

16. God the Father is the spiritual and the physical parent of Jesus Christ

      (a) true (b) false

Answer: True

Ref. "The Father and The Son; A Doctrinal Exposition by The First Presidency and The Twelve," pamphlet published by the Church, June 30, 1916.

Jesus Christ is the Son of Elohim both as spiritual and bodily offspring; that is to say, Elohim is literally the Father of the spirit of Jesus Christ and also of the body in which Jesus Christ performed His mission in the flesh, and which body died on the cross and was afterward taken up by the process of resurrection, and is now the immortalized tabernacle of the eternal spirit of our Lord and Savior.

 

17. We are to worship God the Father only

      (a) true (b) false

Answer: True

Ref. .  ("Our Relationship with the Lord," in Brigham Young University Speeches of the Year, 1981-82, p. 98) TLDP:746-47

We do not worship the Son, and we do not worship the Holy Ghost.  I know perfectly well what the scriptures say about worshiping Christ and Jehovah, but they are speaking in an entirely different sense—the sense of standing in awe and being reverentially grateful to him who has redeemed us.  Worship in the true and saving sense is reserved for God the first, the Creator. Our revelations say that the Father "is infinite and eternal," that he created "man, male and female." And gave unto them commandments that they should love and serve him, the only living and true God, and that he should be the only being whom they should worship. (D&C 20:17-19] True worshippers shall  [note that this is mandatory] worship the Father in spirit and in truth; for the Father seeketh such to worship him. For unto such hath God promised his Spirit.  And they who worship him, must worship in spirit and in truth.  [JST John 4:25-26] There is no other way, no other approved system of worship

 

18. The plan of salvation was instituted by God the Father

      (a) true (b) false

Answer: True

Comment: Some LDS believe that Jesus Christ is the author of the Plan of Salvation. I have included this question and response to correct this miss conception. Some would argue that the Plan of Salvation pre-exist’s even God the Father. This may be true in that elements of the Plan are eternal, however, the scriptures and divine revelation indicate that the Plan is the Fathers.

Ref. Bruce R. McConkie, Doctrinal New Testament Commentary, Vol.2, p.216

God the Eternal Father is the Author of the plan of salvation; he is the creator and source of the gospel; it is his; he established it and brought it into being. There were not two plans offered in the councils of eternity, only one -- the Father's. Having presented his plan, having announced the need for a Redeemer who would be born into the world as his Son to put the provisions of his plan into full operation, the Father then asked: "Whom shall I send?" Two of his spirit sons volunteered; Christ was chosen and foreordained to be the Savior. The plan of salvation then became his by adoption, with the gospel thereafter being called the gospel of Jesus Christ. (Moses 4:1-4; Abra. 3:26-28; Heb. 5:8-9.) Joseph Smith said: "God himself, finding he was in the midst of spirits and glory, because he was more intelligent, saw proper to institute laws whereby the rest could have a privilege to advance like himself." (Teachings, p. 354.) These laws, instituted by the Father, constitute the gospel of God, which gospel is the plan by which all of his spirit children, Christ included, may gain eternal life. How apt it is, thus, for Paul to speak of it as the gospel of God concerning his Son.

 

19. Our spirits look like God the Father and Heavenly Mother

      (a) true (b) false

Answer: True

Comment: The scriptures and modern revelation teach that our spirits were born from Heavenly parentage.  We therefore looked like our Heavenly Parents. Brigham Young taught that when we are resurrected we go back to looking like our Heavenly Parents, but he added that there will remain a distinguishing facial characteristic of mortality that will remain with us.

Ref. Still trying to find the quote.

 

20. God is physically separate and distance from Jesus Christ and the Holy Ghost

      (a) true (b) false

Answer: True

Ref.  Joseph Fielding Smith, The Restoration of All Things (pp. 51-52) TLDP:228

I make bold to say that there is not within the lids of the Bible one single passage which can properly be construed to uphold the popular but erroneous doctrine that the Father and the Son and the Holy Ghost are in substance one, a spirit, or essence, and without body or parts or passions, incomprehensible and invisible. To the contrary, I maintain that throughout the scriptures there is ample evidence in numerous passages, teaching that the Eternal Father and his Son Jesus Christ and the Holy Ghost are separate entities, perfectly distinct and in person independent from each other. This is the doctrine clearly stated by our Savior. It is their epistles to the ancient saints. Any doctrine to the contrary contradicts what is plainly written and is a misinterpretation of these teachings.

 

21. Prayers are to be directed towards God the Father

      (a) true (b) false

Answer: True

Comment: If one is to pray, then it is important to know, “to whom we should pray”. Christendom is confused on the matter, but Latter-Day Saints should not be confused. The scriptures and modern revelation explain the necessity to pray to the Father.

Ref.  President Joseph F. Smith CR1916Oct:6

“We . . . accept without any question the doctrines we have been taught by the Prophet Joseph Smith and by the Son of God himself, that we pray to God, the Eternal Father, in the name of his only begotten Son, to whom also our father Adam and his posterity have prayed from the beginning.”

 

22. God is also subject to the law of free agency and could fall(cease to be God)

      (a) true (b) false

Answer: True

Comment: This question is presented not to infer that a God Would do something that would cause Him to cease to be a God, but because of universal laws such as free agency and forces for good and evil that exist throughout the immensity of space, the opportunity exists that a God Could do something that would cause Him to cease to be a God. This concept should be consoling in that there are powers in the universe that even the Gods are subjected and in obedience to.

Ref. Alma 42:13 Therefore, according to justice, the plan of redemption could not be brought about, only on conditions of repentance of men in this probationary state, yea, this preparatory state; for except it were for these conditions, mercy could not take effect except it should destroy the work of justice. Now the work of justice could not be destroyed; if so, God would cease to be God. Alma 42:22 But there is a law given, and a punishment affixed, and a repentance granted; which repentance, mercy claimeth; otherwise, justice claimeth the creature and executeth the law, and the law inflicteth the punishment; if not so, the works of justice would be destroyed, and God would cease to be God. Alma 42:25  What, do ye suppose that mercy can rob justice? I say unto you, Nay; not one whit. If so, God would cease to be God.

 

23. God listens to prayers of every person in the Universe

      (a) true (b) false

Answer: False

Comment: #23. As far as God listening to every persons prayers in the universe, there's just no reason for Him to do so. There are numerous Gods in the Universe and each has Their own posterity to which they have stewardship. Why would any God need to hear and/or respond to a spirit or mortal child's prayer when they don't have any direct connection or stewardship over them. Besides, when beings pray, they pray to their own Father in Heaven. Prayers are specific. When I pray, I pray to my Father in Heaven. Why would another God need to hear my prayer. It would be an invasion of my privacy.

Ref.  President Joseph F. Smith CR1916Oct:6

“We . . . accept without any question the doctrines we have been taught by the Prophet Joseph Smith and by the Son of God himself, that we pray to God, the Eternal Father, in the name of his only begotten Son, to whom also our father Adam and his posterity have prayed from the beginning.”

 

24. God can and has appeared to people on our Earth

      (a) true (b) false

Answer: True

Comment: Anyone that has had their Calling and Election Made Sure has seen the Father, therefore many people have seen God and Jesus.

Ref. Bruce R. McConkie, Mormon Doctrine, p.687 SECOND COMFORTER

(Teachings, pp. 150-151; John 14:16:23; D. & C. 88:3-4; 130:3.)

After a man so devotes himself to righteousness that his calling and election is made sure, "then it will be his privilege to receive the other Comforter," the Prophet says. "Now what is this other Comforter? It is no more nor less than the Lord Jesus Christ himself; and this is the sum and substance of the whole matter; that when any man obtains this last Comforter, he will have the personage of Jesus Christ to attend him, or appear unto him from time to time, and even he will manifest the Father unto him, and they will take up their abode with him, and the visions of the heavens will be opened unto him, and the Lord will teach him face to face, and he may have a perfect knowledge of the mysteries of the kingdom of God; and this is the state and place the ancient saints arrived at when they had such glorious visions -- Isaiah, Ezekiel, John upon the Isle of Patmos, St. Paul in the three heavens, and all the saints who held communion with the general assembly and Church of the Firstborn."

 

25. Has anyone besides Joseph Smith seen both God the Father and Jesus Christ

      (a)  yes  (b)  no
