Why Ex-Mormons Fear Having a Mormon President By Dean Helland Ex-Mormons are finding themselves being questioned by their non-Mormon friends about their misgivings regarding the possibility of having a Mormon as President of the United States soon. Non-Mormons do not generally know Mormonism’s secrecy aspect, purposely hidden from the public eye in the so-called Mormon Temples. Temples are different from chapels in Mormonism. Chapels feature regular services which are open to the public. Only the Mormon elite are permitted to enter the Temples, and that after a vetting process. Mitt Romney is what is known as a “Temple Mormon.” That means not only is he Mormon by profession, but he has also taken vows in the Mormon Church which he is able to dismiss publicly as unimportant without repercussions from the church, since it requires that they be kept secret! Until 1990, these secret vows were accompanied with three Masonic-type death penalties specified for those disaffected Mormons who should dare to reveal them. These death penalties were removed from the Temple vows in April of that year due to intense pressure by numerous Christian groups spearheaded by ex-Mormons. However, it appears that the time has come for them to be disclosed to the American public at large, for a “Temple Mormon” may soon be the next President. These vows and the changes that have been made in them over the years are fully documented in Jerald and Sandra Tanner’s work, “Evolution of the Mormon Temple Ceremony: 1842-1990.” This book makes it hard to believe that Mr. Romney can honestly say that if he becomes the next U.S. President, he will not be subservient to the Mormon Church, for he continues to wear the sacred underwear (or “garment”) of the Mormon priesthood bearing the symbols affirming that he will. Either he will have to be less than honest with the Mormon Church or with the American people. He can not be equated with a John Kennedy or a Jimmy Carter. Mitt Romney is part of the Mormon elite! And Mormon leaders shun accountability! All Temple Mormons pledge “to consecrate themselves, their time, talents and everything they possess to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, for the building up of the Kingdom of God on the earth and for the establishment of Zion.” In the past, the murder of those disclosing these vows was actually carried out in an undetermined number of cases from the very beginning of Mormon history. While ex-Temple Mormons no longer fear death at the hand of Temple Mormons, the memory of this threat up to 1990 is still fresh in their minds. And Romney was among those who took the vows before they were "modernized." As for Mormon political ambitions, founder Joseph Smith himself sought the nomination as candidate for President of the United States in 1844, and his prophecies of coming world domination by the Mormon Church predicted the day would come that America would elect a Mormon president. That is why ex-Mormons fear having a Temple Mormon as president. Update 5/3/12: I notice that Thomas S. Monson, president of the Mormon church, recently quoted from my doctoral project on YouTube. He then quotes from the Book of Mormon (3 Nephi 11:29) where it says: "he that hath the spirit of contention is not of me, but is of the devil." I would suggest that Mr. Monson check out the Bible in Jude 3 where we are told to "earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints." I would also suggest that he read 1 Thessalonians 5:21 where it says, "Prove all things; hold fast that which is good." I find it strange that Mr. Monson would pit the Book of Mormon against the Bible! I thought the Mormons claimed to believe the Bible! I might add that I know of no ex-Mormon who advocates the use of violence against the Mormons or their properties. I published the following on this webpage over a year ago: Update 9/9/10: A lot of people have been asking me about what I think about Glenn Beck. I think he fits perfectly into the scheme of Mormon hopes to take over leadership of America and the world. Every informed Mormon looks to the words of their founder, Joseph Smith, as quoted by Brigham Young in 1854: "Will the Constitution be destroyed? No: it will be held inviolate by this people; and, as Joseph Smith said, 'The time will come when the destiny of this nation will hang upon a single thread. At that critical juncture, this people will step forth and save it from the threatened destruction. It will be so.'" (Journal of Discourses 7:15) Again in 1868, Brigham is recorded as saying "[Joseph Smith] said if the Constitution of the United States were saved at all it must be done by this people." (J.D. 12:204) Joseph Smith himself is recorded in the Doctrine & Covenants, 103:7-9, as saying to his Mormon converts: "By hearkening to observe all the words which I, the Lord their God, shall speak unto them, they shall never cease to prevail until the kingdoms of the world are subdued under my feet, and the earth is given unto the saints, to possess it forever and ever. But inasmuch as they keep not my commandments, and hearken not to observe all my words, the kingdoms of the world shall prevail against them. For they were set to be a light unto the world, and to be the saviors of men." "Dr. Howard Ervin, one of my seminary teachers at Oral Roberts University many years ago, explained that Christians often find it difficult to defend the Bible from nit-pickers who try to find fault with the Biblical text. He said that the best defense for the Bible are three simple and undeniable truths: (1) The Bible declares itself to be the Word of God. (2) The Church declares the Bible to be the Word of God. (3) It works in everyday life! "No other religious or philosophical text can claim such an impact on humanity! Nowadays there are a lot of people who want to separate the teachings of Jesus from the other books of the Bible, not realizing that Jesus was a Jew who believed in the Old Testament and fulfilled it, and his teachings to the disciples are contained in the other books of the New Testament. Those who want to quibble and not believe the Bible like Jesus presented it are going to find themselves on the wrong side in the next life. Jesus Christ made this very clear when he said: "If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead. (Luke 16:31) "A retired military man who was a classmate of mine many years ago when I was a student at Arizona State University told me that he did not believe the Bible, but had to admit that wherever it has gone in the world, it has improved the lives of the people. I think that is a pretty good observation for an unbeliever!" Mormonism agrees with the Muslim proposition that the Bible is faulty. I don't think God ever intended man to be able to completely understand Him or His Holy Word, which has been preserved for us throughout the centuries in the pages of the Bible. Close examination of the Dead Sea Scrolls and other findings of ancient texts of the New Testament and early writings which quote from them confirm that there is no evidence whatsoever of intentional corruption of the Biblical text in centuries past. Its message remains the same as when God originally ordained that it should come down to us and it is completely trustworthy! Furthermore, DNA testing of Native American populations throughout North and South America fail to show any evidence of links to the Israelites, though there is clear evidence of links to north-eastern Asian populations. That means that the basic premise of the Book of Mormon that the Native Americans are a remnant of Israel is entirely bogus! On this website, historical and other aspects of Mormonism are examined from a Christian perspective. "Joseph Smith, founder of Mormonism, charged his followers to confront the charges presented by his challengers. (Doctrine and Covenants 71:7-8) Thus it is in the Christian spirit of heart-to-heart dialogue with Mormons and their sympathizers that I invite you to consider the materials presented here. As a starting point, download Bible Scriptures for Mormons near the end of this webpage and study it carefully before continuing the dialogue. Anyone interested in sharing ideas with me is invited to join in! Confidentiality will be honored when specifically requested.

Dean,
A Focused Dissertation Review by Lee B. Baker, Former Mormon Bishop and High Priest of Meeting the Book of Mormon Challenge in Chile by Dr. Dean Maurice Helland
Golden, Colorado October of 2011 The foundational premise of this Dissertation is to offer an alternative method of winning Mormons over to Orthodox Christianity. Within that context and as general guide to the historical, scriptural and logical problems of Mormonism as supported by the Book of Mormon, The Doctrine and Covenants and the Pearl of Great Price this work is exceptionally structured as an authoritative and compelling body of evidence. Without question, Dr. Helland has thoroughly researched and expertly organized not only a collection of period documentation, but Official scriptures, sermons, letters, and teaching material from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints itself. The complexity of the subject is expertly managed by Dr. Helland through a progression of questions and logical suppositions offered to guide the reader with clarity without being opinionated in the course of the presentation. Dr. Helland has demonstrated a unique perspective of Mormonism and the Mormon thought process, which has normally been associated with a former or disillusioned member of that Faith, who knows well the doctrine but struggles with the conflicting dogma. I was particularly impressed with the depth of the research and the expert application of the authoritative footnotes as not to disrupt the general flow of the presentation. The precision by which Dr. Helland describes the weaving of the uniquely deceptive doctrine of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, provides the reader not only the Mormon perception but in opposition outlines the rational and Biblical linkage to the Truth. The Study Guide presented in Appendix A, is exceptionally organized in a question and answer format to better assist the reader and student of Mormonism deal with real-world observations, comments and skepticism from those who might know only the attractive “shell” of the Mormon Faith. Without any reservation whatsoever, I would recommend this or any other work of Dr. Helland on the subject of Mormonism or the problems of the Book of Mormon as an authoritative, well-researched and valued resource for anyone dealing with Mormonism in any context or association. I would consider myself uniquely qualified to make such an unconditional recommendation in view of my 32 years of membership in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints as a Bishop, High Priest and Elders Quorum President in locations throughout the world. Lee B. Baker Former Mormon Bishop WHY NO MORMON CAN EVER GET THE BLACK VOTE!!!: Though the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints officially revoked their historic policy disqualifying all blacks from the Mormon priesthood in 1979, the basis for that teaching is still in their scriptures: In the Pearl of Great Price, the book of Abraham 1:20-26 declares the African race to be "from Ham, that race which preserved the curse in the land" and which was "cursed as pertaining to the Priesthood." That doctrinal change for the blacks followed a doctrinal change made two years earlier concerning the American Indians. In 1979, the word "white" to "pure" in 2 Nephi 30:6 of the Book of Mormon. After having waited 149 years without success for the Indians who were Mormon converts to turn white, they realized that it was time to remove this promise to the Indians that was to happen to their offspring after accepting the Mormon gospel! A Brief Synopsis of the Mormon Gospel by Dr. Dean Helland Joseph Smith: The founder of Mormonism. Born 1805, Died 1844. In his “First Vision”, he learned that Jesus (Jehovah in the Old Testament) and God the Father (Elohim in the Old Testament) are two separate gods, each with a body of flesh and bones. This version was the latest of a series of descriptions of that vision, and is the version used today by Mormon missionaries that knock on your door. (The Holy Spirit is also a god, but for some reason does not have a body of flesh and bones, as do the other gods.) According to Mormonism, the goal of every man is to be exalted, which means he will become a God himself. As a result, he will get his own planet, the number of wives he deserves, and he and his wives will bear spirit children (without a physical body) in order to inhabit the bodies of people born here on planet Earth. The glory of the exalted woman, also a being of flesh and bones, will be to be “eternally pregnant.” The Law of Eternal Progression: “As man is, God once was; As God is, man may become,” said Lorenzo Snow, fifth president of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints God the Father. Elohim, the god of planet Earth, was born on another planet where he grew up, was married, kept the laws and covenants of the Mormon church faithfully, died, was resurrected and was judged by the god of that planet. He was found worthy and was rewarded with his own planet, named Kolob (according to the Book of Abraham, found in the Pearl of Great Price) and a large number of wives because of his great merit. Elohim lived on that planet with his wives, bearing spirit children. At a certain point, they became mature enough to enter human bodies, so it was determined by the chief of the gods that a planet should be formed for those physical bodies which they could inhabit. A council of the gods met and had to decide which of the spirit-children, either Jesus Christ or Satan, should be the Savior of those physical beings. They voted in favor of Jesus Christ. So we see that Jesus and Satan are brothers, according to Mormonism. (According to the Bible, Jesus is the creator of all things--including Satan before his fall, along with the Father and the Holy Spirit.) God the Son. Jesus Christ, the oldest brother, was sent with the archangel Michael to gather matter from space (which always existed) to form the planet Earth. Meantime, Satan, ill-tempered from the beginning, apparently, was angry at his loss before the council and gathered an army of one-third of his spirit-brothers and sisters to wage war against Jesus in the heavenlies. When Jesus returned to Kolob, he was confronted with this situation and quickly gathered another army which consisted of about a third of the spirit-brothers and sisters, and there was a great war in heaven. Not having a body, they couldn’t throw sticks or stones at each other. Perhaps they just traded insults. We don’t know. Anyhow, Jesus won that conflict, and placed formed Adam and Eve, two of the most valiant warriors for him in that war, on earth as the beginning of the human race. Spirit-children who were with Jesus were blessed to be able to enter the earth in white bodies. Those who had fought for Satan were cursed to not even get a body. They were cast down on earth to wander about without bodies, but they seek to possess our bodies. They are the demons. So you see, the demons are our brothers and sisters. Those spirit-children who did not take sides in that war in the pre-existence were privileged to get a body on this earth, but because of their indecisiveness, by giving Satan some of the right and Jesus some of the right, were condemned to enter into the bodies of the black Africans. (According to the Bible, this is nonsense!) In the meridian of time, Elohim made a personal trip to the planet Earth, had a physical relationship with the Virgin Mary, who in that way became the mother of Jesus. So the Holy Spirit was not the father of Jesus like it says in the Bible. The Bible is wrong on that point, according to Mormonism. Jesus grew up, got married—several times, according to the first Mormon prophets. Martha and Mary, the sisters of Lazarus, were two of his wives. And the wedding at Cana where he did his first miracle was his own wedding, even though the Bible says he was invited to that wedding. And the reason Jesus was so persecuted was because he was accompanied by his many wives and children. One might almost say he was a Mormon! (The Mormon Church no longer teaches these last two points—for obvious reasons including political correctness—though they are consistent with Mormon dogma. Consider: According to Mormonism, Jesus could not have become a god without having been married!) When Jesus paid the atonement for our sins, it was not for every sin. Some sins are so bad that they can only be atoned by the shedding of one’s own blood. That is why some Mormon murderers in Utah in recent years have chosen the firing squad instead of hanging or lethal injection as their mode of execution. (Jesus limits unforgiveable sins to only one--blasphemy of the Holy Spirit!) And he didn’t make that atonement on the cross, either. The cross is a cursed symbol of paganism. Glorifying the cross is like a parent who would frame the revolver and display it in their living room! For that reason, Mormons do not display the cross, either as jewelry or on their churches. (St. Paul, in the Bible, claimed that the cross symbolized the power of God and the glory of God! It demonstrated the extent of God's love for us!) The atonement was paid at Gethsemane, where he sweat great drops of blood in his agony. According to Brigham Young, Judas Iscariot did not commit suicide, either. The truth is, the other disciples kicked him to death! (Utter nonsense!) Jesus’ death and resurrection provided resurrection from the dead for all mankind. However, Joseph Smith opened the door for our exaltation to Godhood. (So Jesus did not complete the work of redemption. He needed help from Joseph Smith!) After our resurrection, there will be three judges: Joseph Smith, then Jesus, then Elohim. If we are judged to have been good and faithful Mormons, we will be rewarded according to our merit with our own planet and a corresponding number of wives. Then we will pass on to be judged by Jesus Christ and the Father. Concerning those who do not want to be judged by Joseph Smith, he declared that they who don’t like it must “lump it.” The promise to the American Indians who converted to Mormonism was that their offspring would lose the curse on their skin which was caused by the wickedness of their forefathers and become a "white and delightsome people" like their ancestors that had originally come over from Jerusalem 600 years before Christ!

Update 10/18/11 For many months now, China has been downloading from this website far more than any other country. I was hoping for this, for I understand that an army of Mormon missionaries are posing as English teachers throughout the major cities of China. Also, I was told by a Chinese national that the Chinese government requires a reading knowledge of English before graduating anyone from college! While the U.S. mentality rejects public discussion of a candidate's religion as "politically incorrect" (unless they actually believe the Bible!), other countries are only too keen on understanding the implications of their leaders' religious beliefs. Update 9/24/11: Last night I had the pleasure of dining in a small group with Bishop Vasil Elenkov of Sofia, Bulgaria. He told how God had performed many miracles in his life as he grew up under Communist rule, and later how God had led him to win a multitude of Muslims to Christ! He is presently a pastor and Chairman of the High Evangelical Theological University in Bulgaria, and told how God enabled him to inform the Bulgarian Churches about Mormonism and frustrate their efforts to "evangelize" Bulgaria. They had actually translated the Book of Mormon into the Bulgarian language and printed up 2,000,000 copies of it for distribution throughout his country. I thank God for valiant Christians like him whom God uses to protect His people throughout the world! A few years ago, a pastor from Minsk, Belarus, visited me and begged me to translate material on Mormonism into Russian for use in his country. He said that the Mormons had actually financed the building of the central train station in Minsk to curry favor with the government and tried to get membership in the local pastors' alliance so that it could pass itself off as truly "Christian." I was able to get some material translated into Russian, and it now appears on this website. I look forward to adding more languages in the future as finances permit. I get hits every month from countries where the languages on this website are spoken. Update 9/23/11: HOW THE AMERICAN INDIANS GOT THEIR DARK SKIN! Mitt Romney and Glenn Beck actually believe this! And until I realized that the Book of Mormon was a fraud, I believed it, too! I never understood the racism contained in the following passage describing the Indians' skin color as a curse from God! "Wherefore the word of the Lord was fulfilled which he spake unto me, saying that: "Inasmuch as they will not hearken unto thy words they shall be cut off from the presence of the Lord. And behold, they were cut off from his presence. "And he had caused the cursing to come upon them, yea, even a sore cursing, because of their iniquity. For behold, they had hardened their hearts against him, that they had become like unto a flint; wherefore, as they were white, and exceeding fair and delightsome, that they might not be enticing unto my people the Lord God did cause a skin of blackness to come upon them. "And thus saith the Lord God: I will cause that they shall be loathsome unto thy people, save they shall repent of their iniquities. "And cursed shall be the seed of him that mixeth with their seed; for they shall be cursed even with the same cursing. And the Lord spake it, and it was done. "And because of their cursing which was upon them they did become an idle people, full of mischief and subtlety, and did seek in the wilderness for beasts of prey." Book of Mormon, 2 Nephi 5:21-24 Update 9/20/11: Dear Dr. Helland: Your study on this website entitled Book of Mormon Problems was a great help to me in finding my way out of the RLDS church, now known as the "Community of Christ". It meant so much to me that you came out of the RLDS church yourself! Before learning about you, I didn't trust anyone who talked about Mormonism, because I didn't think they knew what they were talking about. I especially want to thank you so much for including in your study the chapter and verse references of the Book of Mormon as published in Independence, Missouri, by the Board of Publication of the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. As you know, this version is divided up differently than the Utah Mormon version. I am presently enjoying Christian fellowship in a nearby community church and thank God for the valuable insights you provided. The family I was raised in has been members of the RLDS for a number of generations. It was a great thing for me to realize that 'losing my faith in the Book of Mormon' did not mean 'losing my salvation,' since only Jesus Christ can save! And the way to come to Christ is quite clear in the Bible without any help from the Book of Mormon or the groups that believe it! (Name withheld by request) Update 9/15/11: What does the Bible says about false prophets who lived before Christ? Read Deuteronomy 13:1-8 and 18:21-22. What does the Bible say about false prophets who lived after Christ? Read 2 John 10-11 What does the Bible says about true prophets who lived before Christ? Read 1 Peter 1:10-12 What does the Bible say about true prophets who lived after Christ? Read 1 Corinthians 12:7-11, 28 Warnings about false "messengers from God:" Read Matthew 24:23-26; 2 Corinthians 11:3-4, 13-15. Conclusion: It is my understanding in the light of these passages that both Islam and Mormonism are disqualified as being legitimate messages from the God of the Bible, who is the only true God. Read John 17:3 and 1 John 3;11-16. Update 9/13/11: “Show me one place that the Book of Mormon disagrees with the Bible, and I will lay aside the Book of Mormon and believe only the Bible! I say that because I know that the Bible is full of archeological verification and the Book of Mormon has none. Yet I am sure that the Book of Mormon is the Word of God, inspired by God through his prophet, Joseph Smith, to restore in these last days the plain and precious things that have been taken out of the Bible!” That was my brave challenge to the Christian workers of “Campus Crusade for Christ” that I met in 1961 while a freshman at Arizona State University. None of them had even read the Book of Mormon, let alone could show me where it disagreed with the Bible. However, that challenge proved to be my undoing as a Mormon, for I determined to write a book “proving” that the Bible and the Book of Mormon agreed, as per the Mormon interpretation of Ezekiel 37:19-20. Instead, I studied my way out of the Book of Mormon, doing my own comparative studies of the two books, did indeed lay aside the Book of Mormon, and bent my knees before the majesty of the Bible. Instead of writing a book convincing people of the truth of the Book of Mormon, I ended up writing “Book of Mormon Problems” which is available with its study guide on this website. It was the tool for my doctoral project entitled Meeting the Book of Mormon Challenge in Chile, published in 1991 by University Microfilms International Dissertation Information Service. Copies of my doctoral dissertation may be ordered from me directly for only $50.00, postage and shipping included. Overseas orders may incur an additional charge. Just send me your email order at dr.dean@deanhelland.com, and I will personally see that you receive a copy.Update 9/9/11: Dear Dr. Dean: I stumbled on to your website and I was very impressed by your discussion with the missionaries. I am not as well versed in the bible as you are and I would like some advice or some assistance if possible. A very dear friend of mine was recently sucked in by the lies of the LDS church and has "fallen in love" with a Mormon missionary. There is no logical or philosophical argument that they will accept. They claim that their acceptance of the faith is based on their "feeling" of what is right and what is wrong. There is nothing I can say that has any noticeable impact on that "feeling." When I talk to this person, she is no longer her true self. It is very clear that she has been a victim of mind control. Is there anything that I can do to counteract these effects? I have not yet lost hope for her recovery. I am willing to bring in counselors if necessary. My reply: I am so sorry to hear what has happened to your friend. Unfortunately, this is typical of many other young people around the world that are "charmed" by the Mormon missionaries. You did not say if this dear friend of yours had been a born-again Christian or not before this happened, but I assume she was. The problem is that she has accepted the Mormon challenge of using the Book of Mormon occultic technique of "praying to see if it is true." This short-circuits all power of reason or normal thinking processes and opens the person up to demonic confirmation which go counter to the biblical injunction to "Prove all things; hold fast that which is good." (I Thessalonians 5:21) The Smithsonian letter which follows will give the response of the scientific world to the claims of the Book of Mormon. That should be enough for a thinking person to hesitate going into Mormonism. However, the spiritual aspect of this deception is something that science cannot understand or deal with. The Biblical injunction for this is found in 2 Timothy 2:24-26: "The servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient, in meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; and that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will." You are confronting a very strong spirit when you combat Mormonism. You must bind it in prayer before you even attempt to deal with the deceived person. Then, use the Bible. Even when the person rejects the Bible as full of errors, it will still accomplish its purpose. It is the hammer that breaks the heart of stone when used properly. Remember, the hammer will not break! The stone will break! (See Jeremiah 23:29 in reference to the power of the Word of God against false prophets!) Some good scriptures to start with are: Galatians 1:6-9, 2 Corinthians 11:2-4, 13-15 and 1 John 4:1. The trap is set when people who don't understand Mormonism ignore the scriptural instruction of 2 John 10, which says; "If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed. For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds." Try to keep the channel of communication open, for the Mormons will try to get her to close it off! My prayers are with you, my friend. Update 9/4/11: It was brought to my attention recently Smithsonian Institute no longer sends out its famous letter to inquirers about the scientific accuracy of the Book of Mormon. Apparently this is due to the political pressure the Mormon church has brought to bear on the US Government, a primary source of its finances. I present the letter I received from them some years back while preparing my doctoral project: Information from the National Museum of Natural History The Book of
Mormon is a religious document and not a scientific guide. The Smithsonian
Institution has never used
it in archeological research and any information that you have received to the
contrary is incorrect. Accurate
information about the Smithsonian's position is contained in the enclosed
"Statement Regarding the Book of Mormon," which was prepared to respond to the
numerous inquiries that the Smithsonian receives on this topic. Because the
Smithsonian regards the unauthorized use of its name to disseminate inaccurate
information as unlawful,
we would appreciate your assistance in providing us with the names of any
individuals who art misusing the Smithsonian's name, please address any

Public Information Officer PREPARED BY STATEMENT REGARDING THE BOOK OF
MORMON 1. The Smithsonian Institution has
never used the Book of Mormon in any way as a scientific guide. Smithsonian
archeologists see no direct connection between the archeology of the New World
and the subject matter of the book. 2. The physical type of the
American Indian is basically Mongoloid, being most closely related to that of
the peoples
of eastern, central, and northeastern Asia. Archeological evidence indicates
that the ancestors of the present Indians
came into the New World--probably over a land bridge known to have existed in
the Bering Strait region during the last Ice Age—in a continuing series of small
migrations beginning from about 25,000 to 30,000 years ago. 3. Present evidence indicates that
the first people to reach this continent from the East were the Norsemen who
briefly
visited the northeastern part of North America around A.D. 1000 and then settled
in Greenland. There is nothing to show that they reached Mexico or Central
America. 4. One of the main lines of
evidence supporting the scientific finding that contacts with Old World
civilizations, if indeed they occurred at all, were of very little significance
for the development of American Indian civilizations, is the fact that none of
the principal Old World domesticated food, plants or animals (except the dog)
occurred in the New World in pre-Columbian times. American Indians had no wheat,
barley, oats, millet, rice, cattle, pigs, chickens, horses, donkeys, or camels
before 1492. (Camels and horses were in the Americas, along with the bison,
mammoth, and mastodon, but all these animals became extinct around 10,000 B.C.
at the time when the early big game hunters spread across the Americas.) 5. Iron, steel, glass, and silk
were not used in the New World before 1492 (except for occasional use of
unsmelted
meteoric iron. Native copper was worked in various locations in pre-Columbian
times, but true metallurgy was
limited to southern Mexico and the Andean region, where its occurrence in late
prehistoric times involved gold, silver,
copper, and their alloys, but not iron. 6. There is a possibility that the
spread of cultural traits across the Pacific to Mesoamerica and the northwestern
Coast of South America began several hundred years before the Christian era.
However, any such inter-hemispheric contacts appear to have been the results of
accidental voyages originating in eastern and southern Asia. It is by no means
certain that even such contacts occurred; certainly there were no contacts with
the ancient Egyptians, Hebrews, or other peoples of Western Asian and the Near
East. 7. No reputable Egyptologist or
other specialist on Old World archeology, and no expert on New World prehistory,
has
discovered or confirmed any relationship between archeological remains in Mexico
and archeological remains in Egypt. 8. Reports of findings of ancient
Egyptian, Hebrew, and other Old World writings in the New World in pre-Columbian
contexts have frequently appeared in newspapers, magazines, and sensational
books. None of these claims has stood up to examination by reputable scholars.
No inscriptions using Old World forms of writing have been shown to have
occurred in any part of the Americas before 1492 except for a few Norse rune
stones which have been found in Greenland. He sited Genesis and the Big Bang author, Gerald Schroeder, Ph.D., who pointed out that something fascinating happens when we apply Einstein's Theory of Relativity to the gravitational slowing of time when measured between two different places at the same time, taking into consideration the size, speed and mass of the universe with one of the places being relatively still and the other moving near the speed of light. One simply factors in the estimated mass of the known universe, 1-to-the-56th power grams, and an estimated radius of the universe of ten billion light years. (2,166,666,666+ years = 1 day.) According to this calculation, a clock on the 'edge' of the known universe would measure a million million years while an identical clock on earth would measure 6 days! The book is available at Amazon.com. Scientists tell us that all creation started with a Big Bang 10-15 billion years ago, originating from a speck much tinier than an atom! Mormonism claims that God has always co-existed with matter, and can cease to exist! Yet the Bible depicts something far different: "For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shown it unto them. "For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. "Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and four-footed beasts, and creeping things. Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves. "Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. "And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet. And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind..." Romans 1:18-28 What a picture of modern-day society! As Jesus Christ himself said, referring to his Second Coming: "When the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on earth?" Luke 18:7-9 Update 8/4/11: Warren Jeffers, now on trial for pretending to follow God's directions while violating children, is a perfect example of the "false prophets" that Jesus warns against in Matthew 24. Though they may deceive many, those who follow the teachings of Jesus in the Bible will not be fooled! Update 7/23/11: It was in 1995, when I went to Africa to expose Mormonism, that I first realized the incredible similarities between Islam and Mormonism. I had learned through my previous studies that Mormon Prophet Joseph Smith had been a fan of the Koran before he got around to writing the Book of Mormon. But it was in Africa that the Christians who live alongside Muslim cultures told me how similar many of its basic teachings were with Islam. After 9/11, I read the Koran through twice, as well as commentaries, the Hadiths, and dozens of books on Islam. I have come to realize just how accurate their observations were. Update 7/22/11: I just finished reading a thrilling novel and highly recommend it for those who want to understand what the world is facing right now with Iran. The book is The Twelfth Imam, by Joel C. Rosenberg; ISBN 978-1-4143-1163-0. It is fiction, but weaves together the dynamics of present-day events, international intrigue and End-Time prophecy from both the Qu'ran and the Bible to present a scenario which threatens to engulf the world in World War III. It is far more interesting than even the Mayan Calendar predictions. You can get it at Amazon.com or any retail bookstore near you. Warning: It is not a book for either children or the faint-hearted!!! Remember: While we cannot know the exact date of Christ's Second Coming, true Christians will not be caught by surprise when it happens! As it says in 1 Thessalonians 5:4: "But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief." Update 7/21/11: There is so much evil and deception in the world that it just makes me want to share these Bible verses with you here right now. Speaking of Satan, Jesus said: "He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it (John 8:44)." Also, "The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly (John 10:10)." The solution? Repent of your sins and turn to Jesus, for he said: "I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me (John 10:10)." He will forgive your sins and give you eternal life! As John 1:12 says: "But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name" Update 7/12/11:
Update 7/10/11: After watching the continuing TV series about the fantastic discoveries afforded daily by the latest technological advances in the fields of physics and astronomy, I have a word of heartfelt advice to Stephen Hawking, Physics professor at Cambridge University in the United Kingdom and others who think like him: I invite you to read the Bible and see if there is anything you have found in modern science that was not anticipated in the scriptures which were written under divine inspiration thousands of years ago. The "gravity" of your fallen spiritual condition needs to be addressed: The Bible explains how the creation came into being, how it is sustained, how this earth and the heavens will come to an end, and how redeemed mankind will one day inhabit a new heaven and new earth. It also explains that God invented time itself and stretched out the heavens at the very beginning. It did not come about from some particle tinier than an atom that exploded in a "Big Bang." It came about through the mighty power of the very Word of God! I invite you to get to know Jesus Christ, God in the flesh, revealed to fallen man to help him realize the heights that God created him for. Steve, you have an eternal soul which will live forever, to dwell either in the blessed presence of God or in the depths of outer darkness and torment. I hope you come to know true repentance and the forgiveness of your sins through faith in the completed Work of Christ on the Cross of Calvary. May God grant salvation to you, and to those who have been following only an amorphous "god of forces," is my prayer. I invite you to study the Bible, especially the New Testament. There you will become acquainted with Theology, which is truly the "Queen of the Sciences!" An inspired word of caution from the Bible for your meditation: "Though thou exalt thyself as the eagle, and though thou set thy nest among the stars, thence will I bring thee down, saith the Lord" (Obadiah, verse 4) Update 7/3/11: On Thursday, June 30th, the U.S. Department of Interior awarded National Historic Landmark status to the site of the Mountain Meadows Massacre in southern Utah, where over 120 Arkansas citizens on their way to California were massacred by the local Mormon militia and some Paiute Indians. Congratulations are due to the three organizations of the victim's descendants and relatives for success in their efforts to seek some measure of closure to this unspeakable atrocity. The landmark is located some 30 miles south of St. George, Utah. Mormons are encouraged to review the 12th Article in their Articles of Faith and compare it with the attitude of the Mormon church toward the federal government. Update 6/25/11: I just received a letter from a Former Mormon Bishop who is now a believer in the Jesus of the Bible, which reads as follows: "Dear Dr. Helland: Your website and recent news articles reflect precisely the truth that my wife and I have come to know about the Mormon Church. I wish that we would have had access to your insight many years ago. As we continue to recover from our Mormon ordeal and come to know the true love of the Lord as echoed through the lives of His compassionate followers like you, please accept this gift from previously lost souls. As you reach out to the Mormon community, let us know if there is something we can do to help. Sincerely, Lee B. Baker, Former Mormon Bishop" The gift he referred to in his letter was a book he wrote which was published recently entitled, Mormonism, A Life Under False Pretenses. The True Story of a Mormon Bishop's Journey of Discovery. (ISBN: 978-0-9825321-8-8) Without ever mentioning Islam, the nature of the Mormon Jesus (i.e., a counterfeit) is shown to be almost identical to that of the "Allah" of the Koran! His book, printed in 2010, is available at amazon.com and other major book outlets. I highly recommend it! With his permission, I quote from the following letter which he sent in 2007 to the President of the Mormon Church which may be found in the appendix of his book: Office of the First Presidency, President Thomas S. Monson 50 East North Temple Street, Salt Lake City, Utah 84150 26 July 2007 Dear President Monson, I have been an exceptionally active convert-member for over 30 years. I have written you in the past (see attached) with a heartfelt desire for guidance. In response to my sincere letter of genuine concern, my Stake President was instructed to read me a letter from “Salt Lake” which harshly stated that I should simply “Follow the Prophet” and not concern myself with the past. The guidance to follow the Prophet and the examples of the Brethren is exactly my concern. How are we to know when our leadership speaks as a man or on behalf of God, when at times, their words and/or actions appear to be at odds with the teachings of Christ? Are some of these teachings intended to just simply fade away? If so. which ones and when? If we are not permitted to or choose not to educate ourselves, ask questions, study, ponder and pray, then Church History and its Doctrine will become whatever we want, or more dangerous "need" it to be. I really do want to know the truth, follow the truth and teach the truth. Yet, without any comment, discussions or guidance from our leadership, the general membership is left only to each others opinions on a number of critical issues. My own Bishop has been absolutely silent for eight months now after I have clearly asked for his help. If my roof leaked I could get help, if sick I could get a blessing within an hour, but if I have a major spiritual challenge that seriously impacts my testimony... I am on my own. With the utmost honesty and seriousness, I would ask if you consider the following in harmony with the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ: The Prophet Joseph Smith "tested" members of the Church by requiring their wives as his own, and then actually took a significant number of them. He married three sets of sisters, a mother and daughter as well as two 14 years-old girls when he was 37. Joseph taught that the practice of Polygamy / Polyandry was the only way to the highest degree of Heaven and then publicly denied his own participation in the doctrine. In the 1840's the doctrine of Polygamy forced many to leave the Church because they would not support it. Then in the 1890's the doctrine of Polygamy forced many to leave the Church because they would not stop it. The Eternal destiny of millions hangs on the truthfulness and authority of this doctrine as well as the examples of its criminal practice by the Prophets, which was not in harmony with the Doctrine and Covenants. Brigham Young taught the Doctrine of Blood Atonement, he taught that to become a God one must participate in Polygamy, that the "mixing" of a white man and a black woman would forever result in death on the spot, that all Blacks were cursed and very much a lesser race and that men lived on both the Moon and the Sun. The Apostle Orson Hyde taught in General Conference that Jesus Christ had several wives and was the father of children on this earth. John Taylor taught that the Black race exists to represent the powers of Satan. As an Area Authority of the Church, Elder J.W. Marriott Jr. currently profits significantly from the daily sale of alcohol and the rental of pornography. I do not see the hand of Jesus the Christ in these things. Please help me to understand, my testimony hangs in the balance. Sincerely,
Lee B, Baker, CC: Bishop Richard Merkley Update 6/24/11: Today I was honored to receive recognition at a district conference of the International Pentecostal Holiness Church for completing 50 years of serving as an ordained minister. They graciously included the first four years I had served while promoting the defective "gospel" of the Book of Mormon! I want to thank them publicly for this great honor. I have been doing my best to help people live for Jesus Christ as a minister for all these years! At no time have I ever "lost my faith." Rather, like Apollos in the Book of Acts, I was willing to listen to the true gospel as presented in the Bible and learn about God "more perfectly." (Acts 18:26) Update 5/21/11: Harold Camping is not alone in making a fool of himself! Joseph Smith was also one of the long list of false "prophets" who set a date for the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. The Doctrine & Covenants, Section 130:14-15 records this Mormon scripture which was given on April 2, 1843. It reads: "14. I was once praying very earnestly to know the time of the coming of the Son of Man, when I heard a voice repeat the following: 15. Joseph, my son, if thou livest until thou art eighty-five years old, thou shalt see the face of the Son of man: therefore let this suffice, and trouble me no more on this matter." It is well-documented that from that time on, Mormons believed that Christ would return in 1891. Smith's own ambivalence on that particular matter permitted them to modify that belief the following year. Such double-talk in his writings and prophecies was one of Smith's hallmarks. All of these people and their movements are a clear violation of the plain teachings of the real Jesus Christ--the one in the Bible--who clearly taught that while true Christians would be ready for it, no man would know the precise time of his return to earth. (Matthew 24:36, Luke 24:40). Update 5/3/11: Usama Bin Laden is to Islam what Joseph Smith is to Fundamentalist Mormonism. The true Islamist goes by the latter teachings of the Qur'an and will follow Bin Laden. The Fundamentalist Mormon simply follows the secret teachings of Joseph Smith to his inner circle. Both are based on deception. Unfortunately, a more sophisticated form of deceit is still inherent in their modern versions, which appear to be harmless, but are therefore doubly dangerous. True Godliness, on the other hand, is based on Truth. And that Truth was modeled by the Jesus Christ that is depicted in the Holy Bible! That Jesus Christ personified the Truth and rebuked all forms of lies and deceitfulness. (John 8:44) Update 3/16/11: I just got back from a trip to Phoenix, Arizona. I discovered that Jack Peirce is the "great-grand-son" of Jacob M. Truman, not his "grandson." That was news to all the family. His great-grand-mother was Catherine Maxwell Truman, Jacob's second plural wife, whose headstone was removed from beside her husband's grave in Hamblin, Utah. His grandmother was Ellen Sophia, who married John Park Brockbank. I also discovered that Catherine's tombstone has been moved over to the cemetery in Huntington, Utah. Anyone who can find out when and why it was moved, please contact me, and I will inform the family members. Update 2/18/11: I want to honor the passing of John H. Peirce, 82, of Phoenix, Arizona two days ago. He was born into a Mormon family, but never could swallow the story of Joseph Smith's translating the Book of Mormon from golden plates. His grandfather, Jacob M. Truman, had two wives and was part of a group sent by Brigham Young to repopulate the area around Hamblin in southern Utah where the Mountain Meadow Massacre had taken place in 1857. He had earlier been a member of the famous "Mormon Battalion". I visited his grandfather's grave there and sent him pictures of it in 2007. He had complained to me was that the tombstone of Catherine, one of his grandfather's plural wives, had been removed to make it appear that his grandfather only had one wife. My visit seemed to confirm that. I worked for "Jack" in Phoenix from the time I was 12 until I was 20 (1957-1965) at his "Donut Boy Company." He was like a friendly uncle to me, always encouraging me and telling me that I would do great things some day. I really needed that positive input during those formative years and became one of his top sellers. I also worked as a driver for his company, dropping off the donut-boys on their routes and taking them home when they finished. Those were great years and are great memories. I salute you, Jack! Rest in Peace! P.S. You can read about the "Mountain Meadows Massacre" on some very interesting historical websites. Just "Google" it up! Also, for more on his colorful grandfather, go to www.softcom.net/users/paulandsteph/jmt/photoalbum.html · Update 1/16/11: Is Mormonism a Cult? Or has it changed? Check out these recent teachings from the October 2010 General Conference of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. I have added my comments in parenthesis: 1) "The prophet is the only man who speaks for the Lord in everything." (It is referring to the president of the Mormon church!) 2) "The living prophet us more vital to us than the standard works." (That means the Holy Bible, as well as the Book of Mormon, Doctrine and Covenants and the Pearl of Great Price!) 3) "The living prophet is more important to us than a dead prophet." (In other words, do not hold previous LDS presidents accountable for the ridiculous things they said that we Mormons no longer believe.) 4) "The prophet will never lead the Church astray." (Even though it may have happened in the past.) 5) "The prophet is not required to have any particular earthly training or credentials to speak on any subject or act on any matter at any time." (And you can bet he will!) 6) "The prophet does not have to say 'Thus saith the Lord" to give us scripture.'" (That is, he is forever infallible.) 7) "The Prophet Tells Us What We Need to Know, Not Always What We Want to Know." 8) "The Prophet is not limited by men's reasoning." 9) "The Prophet can receive Revelation on any matter--temporal or spiritual." 10) "The Prophet May be Involved in Civic Matters." ... "Joseph Smith was mayor of Nauvoo and Brigham Young was governor of Utah." (Joseph Smith also put himself up as a candidate to be president of the United States!) 11) "The two groups who have the greatest difficulty in following the prophet are the proud who are learned and the proud who are rich." (Those who are proud actually think they can discern what is valid or invalid!) 12) "The prophet will not necessarily be popular with the world or the worldly." (He has enough problem being popular with his own people!) 13) "The Prophet and his counselors make up the First Presidency--the highest quorum in the Church." (As they always have.) 14) "[Follow]...the Prophet and the First Presidency...and be blessed; reject them and suffer." (Of course, if Mormonism is a cult, the opposite is true.) The above principles were originally taught by Ezra Taft Benson, the 13th president of the LDS church, and were repeated again in 2010 as official Mormon doctrine by Claudio R. M. Costa and Kevin R. Duncan. The obvious question comes to mind: Will Mitt Romney adhere to this if he becomes the next president of the United States? Update 9/9/10: My 92-year-old mother, Ona Helland, whose interview concerning her past may be accessed below by clicking "Mama, Mormonism and Me," passed away on September 5th. We thank all those who have joined with us in observing her passing with their prayers and messages of condolences. God bless you! Update 9/9/10: A lot of people have been asking me about what I think about Glenn Beck. I think he fits perfectly into the scheme of Mormon hopes to take over leadership of America and the world. Every informed Mormon looks to the words of their founder, Joseph Smith, as quoted by Brigham Young in 1854: "Will the Constitution be destroyed? No: it will be held inviolate by this people; and, as Joseph Smith said, 'The time will come when the destiny of this nation will hang upon a single thread. At that critical juncture, this people will step forth and save it from the threatened destruction. It will be so.'" (Journal of Discourses 7:15) Again in 1868, Brigham is recorded as saying "[Joseph Smith] said if the Constitution of the United States were saved at all it must be done by this people." (J.D. 12:204) Joseph Smith himself is recorded in the Doctrine & Covenants, 103:7-9, as saying to his Mormon converts: "By hearkening to observe all the words which I, the Lord their God, shall speak unto them, they shall never cease to prevail until the kingdoms of the world are subdued under my feet, and the earth is given unto the saints, to possess it forever and ever. But inasmuch as they keep not my commandments, and hearken not to observe all my words, the kingdoms of the world shall prevail against them. For they were set to be a light unto the world, and to be the saviors of men." A word of caution: Evangelical Christians must not allow themselves to be fooled into joining forces with the Mormon Church to "save this nation." The Mormon Jesus is not the Jesus of the Bible, and supporting Mormons for high public office simply gives the Mormon hierarchy more power over national and world affairs, in my humble but informed opinion. Update 6/16/10: For a brief synopsis of the Mormon gospel and followed by biblical responses, keep scrolling down to near the end of the updates below. Update 5/21/10: I had another encounter with some Mormon missionaries recently and have put a written account of it at the end of the article "My Visit With Two Mormon Missionaries". It deals with the problems of (1) Polygamy, (2) Race and (3) Changes made in the text of the Book of Mormon by the Mormon Church.
Update 9/13/09: The "Feedback" page has been updated with some very interesting theological discussions which will especially appeal to Book of Mormon believers! Check out the interesting exchange with Tammy Hughes! Update 8/22/09: Do check out the latest translations of "My Visit With Two Mormon Missionaries" into Arabic and Thai! Alert your friends with contacts in those languages and countries and help protect them against the continual barrage of propaganda of Mormon missionaries visiting them with the message that the creeds of all other churches are an abomination in the eyes of God. Update 10/14/08: If you really want to understand Utah Mormons, read "Destroying Angel" (2008) by Charles M. Larson. It is available on Amazon.com. It minutely examines the entire gamut of Utah Mormon mentality, dramatizing actual historical events with the actual names of persons involved in a modern-day context. Topics it covers are: polygamy today, the skin-curse on American Indians, the Blood Atonement doctrine, and the Mountain Meadows Massacre. It is written in an unbiased manner, from neither a Mormon nor a Christian perspective, attempting to be fair to all the different groups it treats. It is must reading for both Mormons and non-Mormons who want to understand them. Update, 10/3/08: I attended the conference of the Mountain Meadows Monument Foundation, Inc., in Harrison, Arkansas on September 11-13. At last, the Mormon Church is facing up to the horrible deeds committed by its leaders in Southern Utah on September 11, 1857, and is making available to the public the enormous amount of documentation it has gathered on that subject. I salute this step of reconciliation by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints with the descendents of those 120+ who were massacred on that day and only regret that it has taken 150 years after-the-fact for them to do so. Update, 4/22/08: Latest reports from Salt Lake City, Utah state that the Mormon Church has decided to concede the properties of the Mountain Meadows Massacre to the Federal Government to become a Historical Landmark. Many thanks to the thousands of you who signed and sent in the petition for this to happen. You may click on "petition" which is located in the left column as well as near the bottom of this page to read it. *To find out one reason Bible scholars find it difficult to take Mormon theologians seriously, read "Concerning the Godhead" on the "Feedback" page.
Ministry ProfileDean Helland Ministries
Dr. Helland was raised believing the Book of Mormon to be the Word of God, but after intensive study, suddenly realized that his faith had been misplaced, and that the Bible contains God's unchanged and unchanging message.
He knew that he loved Jesus Christ and wanted to serve Him with all of his heart and ended up getting two theological degrees at Oral Roberts University. He then served fifteen years with his family on the mission field in Chile. He has served in Christian ministry for some 50 years. _____________________________
To all who visit this web site, Dr. Helland says, "God bless you for doing your part in helping win to the Lord my people--the Mormons!" Did you know that the Mormon Church did not stop practicing polygamy immediately in 1890 when that practice was officially discontinued by the Mormon Church? Read the amazing book by Frank J. Cannon, a former U.S. Senator from Utah entitled Under the Prophet in Utah. Over and over again, we hear the news media reporting on the polygamous Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. They generally start off by saying that it has nothing to do with the Mormon Church. This "politically correct" statement ignores that it is a historic split from the Mormon Church which actually adheres to the original teachings of Joseph Smith. These teachings are still found in the current Mormon scriptures, specifically in the Doctrine and Covenants, Section 132. Thank God for the firm hand of the U.S. government back in 1890 when the United States was still a Christian nation! Otherwise, Mormons would be having the same sordid problems as their fundamentalist cousins!
Writings: This website will feature articles by Dr. Helland, some of which may be viewed in different languages. Titles of some of the articles featured are: "My Visit With Two Mormon Missionaries", "Islam, Mormonism and Freemasonry", "Book of Mormon Problems" and "My Personal Testimony".
You may read the petition which was given on site to the Mormon leadership on September 11th, 2007, during the 150th Anniversary Memorial Service of the Mountain Meadows Massacre by descendants of the survivors and their friends: Please help support the work of this website with a love offering or by purchasing our CDs, DVDs, booklets, etc. Enjoy a Free 10-minute clip from the video:
