In this episode, we take a deep dive into the LDS "Plan of Salvation" and ask the hard questions and break down the core differences between the LDS plan and the biblical gospel by exploring ideas like:
Is God’s desire for us to become like Him… or be in relationship with Him?
What is eternal life according to the Bible?
Does salvation lead to exaltation, or is that a distortion of the gospel?
Is the LDS “Plan of Salvation” really biblical?
We’ll compare LDS teachings with Scripture, hold up claims like pre-mortal life, proving ourselves faithful, and becoming like God—and then weigh them against the truth of God’s Word.
👀 Spoiler alert: the Bible tells a radically different story. One where salvation isn’t the doorway to an obstacle course… but the finished work of Christ that welcomes us directly into relationship with God.
