A FAIR Analysis of:
Criticism of Mormonism/Books
A work by author: Jerald and Sandra Tanner


Claims made in Chapter 21: The Hereafter

Page Claim Response Author's sources

506

LDS leaders teach the "endless punishement" won't last forever.

  •  [ATTENTION!]

506

Joseph Smith's later teachings regarding endless punishment contradict the Book of Mormon.

  • Doctrine and Covenants 19:6
  • Doctrines of Salvation, vol. 2, p.160
  • Alma 42꞉16

507

LDS leaders teach that "very few" will become "sons of perdition."

  • Joseph Smith—Seeker After Truth, pp.177-78

508

The idea of "spirit prison" as an opportunity for the dead to be taught and receive the gospel contradicts the Book of Mormon.

  •  Author(s) impose(s) own fundamentalism on the Saints
  •  The author's claim is false: The Book of Mormon is addressed to those who have heard the gospel in this life; the doctrine of post-mortal evangelization is a different matter.
  • Book of Mormon and the fulness of the gospel

510

The concept of three degrees of glory is not consistent with the Book of Mormon.
