WHAT IS A NUMO ?

Many Numos are awakened by the Lord and invited to go into a prepertary Wilderness.

Most people have assumed that when it comes to Mormonism, an individual ultimately can only settle into one of two rival camps. Either aligning with the unquestioning Latter-Day Saints or the disbelieving  Anti-Mormons.
 
A new group, nicknamed "Numos," has emerged on the Mormon-related landscape and holds what seems unimaginable: a third position. This view is only possible because a Numo finds many arguments from both Mormons and anti-Mormons credible. Examples of Numos accepting beliefs from both groups are their taking the Book of Mormon as scripture while simultaneously opposing temple rituals and polygamy. 

​

The LDS Church has seen an increasing number of members go inactive or leave in recent years, due in part to the Church's ever-increasing changes, and Church actions, which have obviously been anything but True Church-like. In the past, those who stayed away or left the Church did not include leaders and stalwarts of the faith, but now they are leaving as well, leading others to wonder, "Is there something wrong with the Church?" Thus, the Believing Saints (TBMs - True Blue Mormons) increasingly become Questioning Saints, and they wonder whether there are answers to what in the heck is going on with the Church. They say to themselves. ""I sense something is not right, but if there is, what can I do? Where can I go without having to abandon my Mormon background" So most suffer silently and become either In-Actives or PIMOs (Physically In Mentally Out members).

THE 4 MAIN COMPONENTS TO NUMO BELIEFS

The Real LDS Church History that the LDS Church burries and denies that explains why the LDS Church has so many problems and is hemorrhaging members.

We offer you a complete and accurate understanding of Mormonism, from the original Church under Joseph Smith, to the changes made by Brigham Young and others following the Martyrdom, to the problems in the Modern LDS Church, and the Remnant to come.

Who was the man in white who led Lehi into a dark and dreary waste?

Why Numos Are Relevant Today?

The LDS Church claims that if the Book of Mormon is true, then the LDS Church must also be true. Additionally, they say, if Joseph Smith was a prophet, then Brigham Young must be one as well. But are those statements accurate?

 

Numos consider these forced assumptions with unsupported evidence, much like the man in white from Lehi's Dream, is presumed to be good, yet he led Lehi to a dark and dreary waste. At some point all of us need to stop as Lehi did, and honestly examine if those we are following are leading us to the real fruit God prescribed or a false substitute.

​

Numos do believe that Joseph Smith was a prophet, the Book of Mormon is scripture, and that the original Church founded by Joseph Smith did have divine authority, but unlike the typical Latter-Day Saint, Numos identify that something changed along the way. That development was the Church's loss of Christ sanctioning them. This development was not obscure and is easily found in Church history and the LDS Church's Doctrine & Covenants scripture. 

​

The Church of Christ was established in 1830 by Joseph Smith. By 1832, the Church fell under condemnation. (See D&C 84:54-58). In both the April and October 1986 conferences, president Ezra Taft Benson pointed our attention to verses in D&C 84 which indicate that the church was under condemnation, and declared the Church had still not come out from under this censure. In 1834, when the membership ignored the call to repent and follow the teachings in the Book of Mormon, the Lord removed His name from the Church, changing it from the Church of Christ to the Church of Latter-day Saints. A decade later, the Church slid still further from condemnation to outright rejection by the Lord in 1844 and the life of the Church's prophet was allowed to be taken. (See D&C 124: 31-33 and 44-45).

 

Three of the greatest pieces of evidence that this rejection of the Church occurred are:

​

1) The Saints were once again driven from Illinois, as they had been in Kirtland and Missouri, rather than being protected and not moved from their place, as D&C 124:45 outlines. 


2) The Nauvoo Temple was not accepted by the Lord,  as the Kirtland Temple was. The Nauvoo Temple was destroyed by both man and an act of God, through arson fire and then a tornado, while the Kirtland Temple which was accepted still stands today.


3) Following Joseph Smith's death, canonized "thus saith the Lord" revelations stopped. 

​

The Book of Mormon, like the Bible, gives multiple accounts of the people and Churches falling under condemnation, being rejected, overrun, held captive, or destroyed. The Book of Mormon starts with Lehi as a prophet, and Jerusalem being destroyed, and ends with the prophets Mormon and Moroni witnessing the elimination of the apostate Nephite nation.

 

There is no scripture or revelation in which the Lord tells us that a people or a Church cannot be led astray or fail, for even Christ’s original church apostatized and changed.  The Book of Isaiah continually foretells ancient apostasy and predicts that these things will happen again in the future. Furthermore, throughout Isaiah, he tells of a  Righteous Remnant returning. People can not return if they have never left. It is important to realize that the gospel and the Church are not one and the same. The Gospel will not fail, but the Church and its people can and consistently have.

 

Further undermining the LDS Church's argument that the Church will not go astray is the fact that they already have by their own admittance.  Brigham Young's teachings were disavowed, by the Church itself. Brigham Young's Adam is God doctrine, Man's own blood atonement teaching, plus the Church's Black's priesthood ban and information that Black's were a subhuman race, were all reversed by the LDS Church. The controversial doctrine of Polygamy pushed by Brigham Young and falsely attributed to Joseph Smith has often be revoked, restored, denied, ghosted and also called Eternal and Immovable, until it is needed to be minimized and hidden again.
