Meet the Mormon Missionaries
Members of the Mormon Church believe that Jesus Christ has commanded them to take the Gospel to every creature, to every nation, tongue and people.
To do this, the Mormon Church has the largest missionary force of any church. Nearly 55,000 at given moment are preaching the message of the Gospel as restored through living prophets like Joseph Smith.
Many people have misunderstandings or misconceptions about Mormon missionaries and what they teach. This site discusses what Mormon missionaries do as they seek to teach others about their beliefs and what those beliefs are.
What will they do when they visit me?
Some people find it scary or strange to have two young men or women come into their home and begin talking about religion with their family. For many people, religion is a very personal matter and talking about it with strangers is a new experience. Most Mormon Missionaries know this and will try to make you feel comfortable. You should feel free to express your feelings and beliefs with the missionaries. Mormons believe that it is important to openly and honestly share thoughts and questions about religious beliefs, so that we can understand one another and learn better. (Read more)
When the Mormon Missionaries come into your home, they will want to teach you about their beliefs and invite you to learn more about the Gospel of Jesus Christ. They will eventually invite you attend Mormon Church services with them and be baptized a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. We invite you to listen to the missionaries as they teach their lessons about God, Jesus Christ, prophets, and the plan of salvation. (Read more)

Hi. I am a 17 year old in Laguna Niguel California. I have been attending mormon church recently with my girlfriend and her family. I believe what I know but am curious. I want to know how to know if the Book of Mormon is true. I want to know if the Bible validates the Book of Mormon. I prefer to be contacted by email. I would love to meet with a missionary but I do not want my parents to be present.

To know if the book of mormon is true, we must follow the same example of how the early christians determined what is true and what is false. They used the bible and compared what they were being told with bible doctrine.
With careful study, you will find that the book of mormon is not validated in any way by the bible.
Any so-called validations from the bible are scriptures taken out of context of the chapter, and scriptures purposely misinterpreted to the favor of the book of mormon.
If you have any questions for a christian minister you can reply to gladiator8324@yahoo.com unless this site blocks this response or my e-mail address.

Hi Michael,
Mark’s comment is perfect for proving the point I am about to make, that members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints will tell you that The Book of Mormon is true while others may tell you that it is not. In other words, you can’t always rely on others for knowledge of what is true. There is only one source that you can go to that will tell you the truth, the only Source that literally “cannot lie” (Titus 1:2).
You must therefore go to the Source of Truth, to God Himself. This is possible through sincere prayer in the name of Jesus Christ. You can ask Him anything, and “by the power of the Holy Ghost ye may know the truth of all things” (Moroni 10:5).
“Ask, and ye shall receive; knock, and it shall be opened unto you; for he that asketh, receiveth; and unto him that knocketh, it shall be opened” (3 Nephi 27:29).
I guess I’d better reply to Mark’s comment as well.
Mark is mistaken. First, the early Christians did not use and compare “what they were being told with bible doctrine” as you have stated. In fact, the early Christians did not even have the Bible as we have it today. True, they had some books of scripture that are available in our current Old Testament (and even some that are not), but for the most part, they relied on the testimonies of the living prophets and apostles to teach them the doctrine of Christ.
In addition, there is more than ample evidence from a study of the Holy Scriptures that there is more scripture than what we have available to us. See, for example, John 21:25; Ezekiel 37:15-19; John 10:16; and 2 Corinthians 13:1 as a beginning to your study of scriptures that exist someplace but that we do not currently have. Ezekiel 37:15-19 is an explicit reference to the coming forth of The Book of Mormon. See also Isaiah 29:1-4, 11, 13-14).
But even if there were no scriptures in the Bible that testified of The Book of Mormon: Another Testament of Jesus Christ, that would still not be enough to reject it.
God Himself has asked rhetorically, “Know ye not that there are more nations than one? Know ye not that I, the Lord your God, have created all men, and that I remember those who are upon the isles of the sea; and that I rule in the heavens above and in the earth beneath; and I bring forth my word unto the children of men, yea, even upon all the nations of the earth? Wherefore murmur ye, because that ye shall receive more of my word? Know ye not that the testimony of two nations is a witness unto you that I am God, that I remember one nation like unto another? Wherefore, I speak the same words unto one nation like unto another. And when the two nations shall run together the testimony of the two nations shall run together also” (2 Nephi 29:7-8).
Like all principles of the gospel, we put things that we do not understand to the test of faith. “If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself” (John 7:17). In other words, things of God will pass the test of faith. All else will fail.
