Many people who decide that they no longer believe in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints or no longer believe in the church’s truth claims regarding Joseph Smith want to leave the church but retain some of the doctrines or principles that they cherish. They want to become mainstream Christians but hang on to what makes sense to them or feels right about this life, their premortal life, the afterlife and the nature of God that came from Joseph Smith. This episode strips those plain and precious truths that were restored by Joseph Smith away to show a Latter-day Saint what they must believe in order to be considered a true Christian after leaving the church.

Jesus said in Luke 9:23-24, "If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me, For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it". We live in a society where self-indulgence and immediate gratification are prized over self-mastery. As disciples of Jesus Christ, we are instructed to put off the natural man and become a saint through the atonement of Christ the Lord (Mosiah 3:19). To do this, we must deny ourselves of everything that is ungodly.

"Behold there are save two churches only; the one is the church of the Lamb of God, and the other is the church of the devil; wherefore, whoso belongeth not to the church of the Lamb of God belongeth to that great church, which is the mother of abominations", an angel declared to the prophet Nephi in 1 Nephi 14:10 in the Book of Mormon. In our day, the devil has recycled his original tactic--forced equity--and it has infiltrated all of the major institutions of western society, along with the other tenets of cultural Marxism. Marxism and satanism are one in the same and are advancing at a rapid pace. Being aware of the dangers of social or cultural Marxism can help to protect our societies and us personally from the devil's most successful deception.
