Suddenly, Adam and Eve are only allegory; a growing percent of Protestant Christians driven by unbelieving clergy are falling away from its truths. Is it an unfounded legend, the figment of someone's imagination?
We might well remember that it is the Bible that tells this story, and we believe the Bible to be the word of God. These particular Protestants are willing to stumble around this reality in order to suddenly see Genesis as allegory.
And with it Satan as no longer the Father of all Lies (Lucifer). And with it the real nature of Evil being the voiod of not doing good. And with the discard of the creation story, are we now descended from apes? Or Aliens. Perhaps not just aliens but truly majestic aliens. Or simply spores from space.
Folks, as has been the case endlessly, when you tear out the substance of truth, it is always filled with something
The Book of Mormon sustains the same story and adds thereto. We believe it to be the word of God too.
The Pearl of Great Price goes into great detail concerning Adam, his creation, the fall, his subsequent dealings with God, his baptism, and his covenants with God. It relates that Adam lived and taught his family the truth about the gospel. We also believe the Pearl of Great Price to be the word of God. It tells the truth.
The Doctrine and Covenants is filled with references to Adam, the fall, the redemption from that fall, the bestowing of the priesthood, and the manner in which that priesthood was handed down from one generation to another. It goes to great lengths in affirming the atonement of Christ, who did indeed redeem us from the fall of Adam. That is no myth!
We most sincerely declare the Doctrine and Covenants to be the word of God. It tells the very truth about Adam and is divinely given.
