**note subject change**
I'm aware of organizations who call themselves
'Ex-Mormons for Jesus.' I have audio lectures delivered by such persons. The
circumstances underlying their 'change' are many and, varied.
Are there organizations who call themselves
'Ex-evangelicals (now Mormon) for Jesus? Will someone tell us of them by name.
I'd like to hear their 'story'.
Do you all realize how unlikely it is, naturally
speaking, that persons occupying a faith tradition antithetical to yours will
ever leave it? My goodness, just look at the conversations BETWEEN 'professing'
believers. Some put forward skilled and articulate arguments for ...(whatever).
When did you last see someone respond with, 'by jove I believe I'll change my
mind on this!'? It hasn't happened and it ain't gonna happen.

G,
My
question to Blaine was in response to his knocking SP's, particularly
those at the LDS GC and their methods. I thought it would be interesting
to find out what he thinks would be the best way to evangelize Mormons.
While sending out missionaries two by may two work in peoples homes, it
is not practical in a public open-air setting. Dave brought up prayer
and bullhorns. Prayer is not how the Bible tells us people come to
faith. While I believe tht praying for those you wish to come to faith
is useful, Paul tells us that preaching is the way people hear the word
of God. Paul made good on this himself, as did most of the Aposles. As
for bullhorns, I must agree that if someone came into my house with a
bullhorn and began to preach, I would not like it. But, if they needed
to be heard over background noise, hecklers, or other noise in an
outdoor setting, I think bullhorns are a good
tool.
