Mormonism:


Total Apostasy
Author: Marshall Almarode

Summary:
The Mormon Church justifies its existence by claiming that a total apostasy occurred, during which no one on earth had the authority to act in the name of Jesus. Therefore Joseph Smith had to restore this authority. If this authority did exist somewhere else then Joseph should have gone and joined that church instead of starting another. The simplicity of this tract is that it uses only three Mormon Scriptures to refute Joseph's First Vision which is the foundation of Mormonism.

Explanation: Way Different!
This tract is probably the most misunderstood tract ever printed by us. As Christians read this tract they find that they don't understand it if they are not very familiar with Mormonism and the first vision. The problem is that this tract wasn't written to inform Christians about the problems of Mormonism. This tract was written with a different purpose in mind. It was written for Christians to give to their Mormon Friends and Relatives. Therefore it has no bible verses, no sinners prayer, and no gospel message, because those are offensive to many Mormons. This tract just begins the first step. It was written to be as 'Mormon Friendly' as possible and still present an effective message to Mormons. The idea is not to convert the Mormon in one quick step (a devout Mormon already thinks he is saved) rather it is to get the Mormon to realize that he is lost (the first step).

The 12 Apostles
Author: Marshall Almarode

Summary:
The Mormon Church claims that it is the only true Church because it is the only church that has 12 living apostles. This tract takes a close look at how many apostles the true Church should have, and how many apostles the Mormon Church really has. The theme toward the end is a mathematical inequality: 12 doesn't equal 15 doesn't equal 16 doesn't equal 19 doesn't equal 24. It covers Biblical Apostles, One abnormally born (Paul), and the Second Set of Twelve Apostles from the Book of Mormon.

History of the Book of Mormon
"Pre-publication Manuscripts and Early Editions
Edited by the Prophet Joseph Smith"
Author: Marshall Almarode

Summary:
Mormons ask us to read and pray about the Book of Mormon to see whether it is true or not. We never ask them which version. This tract gives a brief overview of the making and the printing of the written history of the Book of Mormon from the original and printers manuscripts through the changes in the texts of the different printed editions from 1830's first edition through the current seventh version printed first in 1981(the seventh edition). Errors in the Book of Mormon translated by the inspiration of God have been a topic of discussion since the second edition came forth from the printer. This tract fills in much of the hard to obtain information about the "pre-publication manuscripts and early editions edited by the Prophet Joseph Smith." It addresses the rarity and value of some of these early editions, and covers an official admission of errors.

A Summary of Mormon Salvation
Are you worthy? Have you done all you can do?

Author: Marshall Almarode

Summary:
The first requirement of Mormon salvation is a belief in the Mormon Christ, the second is to be reconciled to God. Repentance is the method by which Mormons are reconciled to their God and is at the core of their method of salvation. LDS repentance is broken into two general parts. The first can be summarized as keeping all the commandments and ordinances of the gospel in this lifetime. The second can be summarized by stopping all sinning and enduring perfectly to the end, with no repetition of any sins.

The Mormon Miracle Pageant
Author: Marshall Almarode

Summary:
Most Mormons are taught not to question their faith. This leads them to believe anything that is told them from the Church without question. This fact allows the church to get away with not telling the truth when ever it suits the leaders. Thus the general membership is believing errors that might be called Folk Mormonism. This tract exposes the errors in the story of Joseph Smith as told in June at Manti, Utah for over 25 years in their official Mormon Miracle Pageant

Freemasonry, God and Religion, in the Initiatory Degree
Or Masonic Religion in the First Degree
Author: Marshall Almarode

Summary:
Freemasonry officially claims that Freemasonry is not a religion. All Masons that I have talked to agree. It appears that Freemasonry has decieved their own members and their families and friends. This tract documents the religion of Freemasonry from its own source of truth; its Secret Masonic ritual (the first degree). Reigious faith is so interpersed throughout the degrees that it is hardly even noticed by the members. Most never realize that their faith system is being tailored by the words that they take as they travel through the degrees of Freemasonry. Most spouses are unaware of the religion of the Freemasons.

Does the Roman Catholic Church Deny the Jesus of the Bible?
The Answer is Absolutely yes!

Co-authors: Marshall Almarode & Greg Hanson

Summary:
This tract deals with Matthew 16:13-20. This is the famous "Peter is the Pope" section of scripture that Rome misinterprets. Most Pastors ignore this section of scripture due to the controversy however Jesus is the one who introduced it in verse 13. Because He is introducing this teaching it must be of high importance and not something that Protestants should ignore. The Catholic Church says that Peter is the rock, but in his introduction Jesus did not say "Who do people say Peter is?" Jesus' introduction and conclusion point to the fact that he is dealing with the proper identification of himself not Peter as the real rock of the Church. This tract points out that according to Rome, Catholics truly do eat their Jesus, and the Priests truly do one miracle. They pray over bread which is then miraculously changed into the real body and blood, soul and divinity, of our Lord Jesus Christ under the appearances of bread and wine. It also covers, the false definition of Jesus' mother, the false priesthood of Rome and the two Biblical Laws of Christianity.

Vs
The Roman Catholic Priest's True Identity


When you have finished reading this, you will be able to answer all of the following questions.

  1. Does Roman Catholicism identify its priests as “Christ himself,” acting and standing in the person of Christ and sharing in his priesthood?

  2. Is the Roman Catholic bishop like the living image of God the Father?

Summary:
Most people do not really know how Roman Catholicism re-defines Christ's identity. The priests are really Jesuses when they hold up the bread ("host") and say, "This is MY body."

Indulgences
Can Good Works and Rituals Really Save You?
Author: Mike Gendron

Summary:
This tract began as a larger article in one of Mike Gendron's newsletters and I felt that It was just too good not to share with everyone. Indulgences are at the heart of the unbiblical plan of salvation in Roman Catholicism. This tract covers: redefining sins, what is an indulgence, and where does forgiveness come from. Indulgences were unheard of in Christendom prior to Pope Urban II. He promise a plenary indulgence to anyone who would participate in the crusades for the Roman Catholic Church. It also talks about the use of devotional objects such as the Crucifix, Cross, Rosary, Scapular, or Metal and partial indulgences. All of these are false formulas for salvation. It contains Biblical corrections for Catholics to investigate. Referenced and footnoted to Official Roman Catholic sources.

Biblical Requirements of Church Elders
Elders: The Biblical Picture of Maturity in the Faith
Author: Marshall Almarode

Summary:
Discover Paul's qualifications for Elders and Deacons. Some of those qualifications are: He must be a married man of good character, who has raised children up in the faith. He must be able to teach, not quick tempered, sensible and just. Above this he must hold firmly to the faithful word of God, not compromising the message, but also refuting those who are opposed to the Gospel. This means that men should not be called up as Elders if they are not actively refuting those who oppose the Gospel. This seems to be a requirement that we have forgotten in modern Christianity.

How much Authority do we have as Christians?
How much Authority do the Mormons have?

Author: Marshall Almarode

Summary:
Mormons claim to have authority through Joseph Smith directly from Jesus Christ to baptize and perform other ordinances in the church. They claim that we have no authority to do the ordinances of the church. The problem is that they don't have authority either. Matthew 28:17-20 is called the "Great Commission" not the "Great Authority Transfer." Christians have commission, not Authority. We get commission from Jesus Christ who has all authority in heaven and on earth.

Errors Creeping into the Church:


The Toronto Blessing:
A Counterfeit Revival
Author: Marshall Almarode

Summary:
The Toronto2 Blessing, charactorized by "Holy Laughter," Slain in the Spirit," and animal sounds is subtlly preventing many "Christians" from thinking biblically. One of my former pastors told me that he wouldn't even listen to any evidence comming from anyone who has not experienced "The Blessing. With this line of reasoning, one would have to participate in the act of adultry, or Homo-sexuallity in order to decide if it was of God or not!!! Another pastor told me that he didn't want to hear about the negative things and that I should stop consentrating on the negative and tell him something positive about "The Toronto Blessing." " This is in escence saying, "Don't confuse me with negative facts, just tell me the positive stuff, my mind is made up." This tract exposes the errors in discernment contained in chapter 9 of the book, "Epic Battles of the Last days" which was preached from the pulpit on Sunday morning, January 23rd, 2000, by a pastor of a local Baptist Church.
