Truth In Love to Mormons

-
I haven't begun to explore this website yet, but this page of downloads has some excellent stuff in it, like this from their Winessing Summary.

Desired Outcome
Is it "To get Mormons out of the Mormon Church"?
Getting a Mormon out of the Mormon church, but not into Christ'sflock does no favor for the Mormon
Is it "First bring them out of the church, then bring them to faith"?
Ex-Mormons not already brought to faith often are hurt, angry, resentful and likely to become agnostic. They often reject all organized religion
Focusing on the errors of Mormonism is more likely to push them away, than bring them closer to Jesus
Or, "To bring Mormons to faith"?
Bible: No one can come to faith by logic
Only the power of God's Word can bring a person to faith
We need not convince Mormons of Mormonism's falsehoods to witness God's Word
Some of the boys on bikes in ties approached me on the way into the public library. I made an appointment for them to come over on Tuesday afternoon. I've tried many approaches with the boys, mostly confrontational on one angle or another, but I haven't focused on grace much. This site seems to fit the bill of what I want to do.

Why did Peter put his coat on before jumping in the water? John 21:7

-
I have the great pleasure of facilitating every week a Bible discussion group with several high school students. We've been discussing the Gospel of John  this past year, and we finally finished tonight. We enjoyed the humorous scene John writes about in this last chapter. The great apostle John can't help himself when it comes to embarrassing his fellow inner circle apostle; the denial of Christ, his slowness in getting to the empty tomb, and this event in the last chapter. John 21:7 That disciple whom Jesus loved therefore said to Peter, "It is the Lord!" When Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he put on his outer garment, for he was stripped for work, and threw himself into the sea. What's the joke? Well John is the first to realize that Jesus is on the beach, #humblebrag, but then Peter puts ON his coat before jumping out of the boat? I've seen some academic ink spilled trying to explain this weird behavior on the part of this fisherman ( good one

The near sacrifice of Isaac and bad religion

Bad religion asks parents to sacrifice their children. Bad religion is cultural. Bad religion looks for scapegoats. Bad religion always find scapegoats in those with less power. Bad religion kills kids. Abraham's story in Genesis 22 is a story of good religion prevailing over bad. image source    Abraham lives in a culture which not only approves of child sacrifice, but even encourages it for assistance from the deities. Abraham believes his deity wants him to also perform this act of devotion. But after he ties his son up, he has an encounter with God unlike any previous one. It appears God changed his mind.  More likely, Abraham changed his mind about God. Evangelical and fundamentalist christians also live in cultures where they think their deity asks them to bind their children, to not let them live in truth their sexual identity. Hence, these children who normally benefit from the protective effects of religion on suicidal thoughts and tendencies actually experience it worse a
