The testimony of Jesus Christ was never a temporary gift.

I love this idea and will be joining in.

Elder Brown's talk was amazing! #GeneralConference has been great.

"The canon is closed. The Book of Revelation was the final word." Are you sure?

That is exactly what the Restoration proclaims.

The Bible itself says He does: “Surely the Lord God will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets” (Amos 3:7) and “In the last days… your sons and daughters shall prophesy” (Acts 2:17–18).

The real question isn’t whether God has spoken beyond the Bible, but whether He continues to speak today.

The point: To reject the LDS faith simply for accepting additional scripture is inconsistent. Mainstream Christianity already depends on extra-biblical sources—canon decisions, creeds, confessions, and traditions.

Protestants do the same: Luther’s Small Catechism and Calvin’s Institutes are foundational, even though they aren’t scripture. Catholics and Orthodox openly place scripture and sacred tradition together as authoritative (Catechism §80–82).

3. Christians rely on tradition and commentary to interpret scripture. Early fathers like Irenaeus (Against Heresies, c. 180 AD) and Augustine (On Christian Doctrine, c. 397 AD) shaped how the Bible was read.

Yet these creeds and confessions define what most call “orthodox Christianity.”

The Athanasian Creed (5th c.) went further, declaring anyone who denies the Trinity “shall perish everlastingly.” Later confessions like Westminster (1646) declared God “without body, parts, or passions”—a phrase never found in scripture.

2. Core Christian doctrines come from creeds, not just scripture. The Nicene Creed (325 AD) introduced homoousios (“same substance”), a non-biblical word, to define the relationship of Father and Son.

The Muratorian Fragment (c. 180 AD) includes some books now excluded and omits some we accept today. The canon wasn’t ratified until the Councils of Hippo (393) and Carthage (397).

1. The Bible itself is extra-biblical. The Bible never lists its own books. The canon was settled centuries after Christ. Eusebius (Church History 3.25, 4th c.) still divided books into “recognized” and “disputed.”

Many mainstream Christians claim that Latter-day Saints aren’t Christian because we accept scripture beyond the Bible. But that standard doesn’t hold up. Here’s why:

I’ll take things @Cobratate said to his brother @TateTheTalisman for $500, Alex. Answer: Andrew said this to Tristan when they locked eyes in the bedroom after a sparring session. Question: What is….

If we haven't concluded the story we will add more to it the next night and continue to do so until we have finished building our story. The kids love being and to see what it comes up with and also help to build and develop their story.

We keep the initial inputs pretty general and don't tell chat gpt what should go on in the story. Example: "Write a story about evil little penguins, duplicating guinea pigs, magical puppies. Make it as long as possible. Allow the story to built upon and continued."
