March 31st - The Book of Mormon: Is it a companion to the Bible and inspired scripture, as the Latter-Day Saints claim, or is it in opposition to the Bible?
April 7th - Some churches claim that Latter-Day Saints (Mormons) are a “non-Christian cult”. Are Latter-Day Saints really “Christian”?
The resources available during the forum are also posted online.
Eastside hosted a forum between Roger Anderson and Ronald Cole, two local Latter-Day Saint leaders and ex-bishops, and Dale Hartman and Kent Hartman, two brothers who are ministers and teachers with churches of Christ. The sessions were on March 31st, 2005 and April 7th, 2005 and in the Eastside auditorium.
Each evening consisted of 4 fifteen-minute talks, alternating between LDS and COC. These were followed by a question and answer period with 2 minutes to answer and 1 minute for the other side to respond. Finally, each side had 2 minutes to summarize their position for the evening.
