Those who live in glass houses, pt. 9

(Part nine of a series.)

Jonathan Neville invites us to contemplate:

Imagine how much stronger the Church would be, and how much more united Latter-day Saints would be, if our scholars decided to support and corroborate the prophets on such basic topics as the truthfulness of the scriptures, the translation of the Book of Mormon and the New York Cumorah.

This, coming from the man who doesn’t support President Russell M. Nelson, the living prophet, on such a basic topic as the translation of the Book of Mormon.

This, coming from the man whose pet theory about the identity of the angel who appeared to Mary Whitmer contradicts the public teaching of Elder Gerrit W. Gong in October 2020 General Conference.

This, coming from the man who has implied that prophets, seers, and revelators who speak in General Conference have strayed from teaching doctrinal and historical truths since 2008.

This, coming from the man who apparently believes that the members of the First Presidency and Quorum of the Twelve Apostles are dupes who don’t understand supposedly basic doctrines of the Restoration.

Happy 2021, everyone! It sadly appears that we’re in for another year of Jonathan Neville rejecting the teachings of the prophets.
