This article gives three reasons not to be a Mormon. Mormonism deviates from the sufficiency of Scripture, from the biblical teaching of Christ's deity, and from the true gospel of Christ.

Mormonism states that in the year 1820 Joseph Smith was stirred by a religious revival that broke out in the vicinity of Palmyra.

Here the Catholic, Orthodox, Mormon and Pentecostal positions on sola scriptura are evaluated in light of the Protestant view.
