Shawn, a man I have never before spoken with, sent an abusive and accusatory text. This is my reply, sent and hopefully received in love. Together we will examine the making of a reprobate man and one who is justified. I will ask the question, reprobate or justified and who gets to decide?

Ask Your Bishop is a service for members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the Mormons). We compare biblical and Mormon doctrines, theologies, and practices. Then, we ask questions and ask that you bring them to your Mormon Bishop. If your Bishop cannot answer reasonably, we pray you will contact us.
