What might you say to a Latter-day Saint missionary or acquaintance who questions you about the inerrancy and infallibility of Scripture?

We'll tackle this question and several other key issues between Mormons and Evangelicals this week on the Profile as we continue our conversation with apologist and evangelist to Mormons in Utah, Aaron Shafovaloff of Mormon Research Ministry in Draper, Utah (https://www.mrm.org).

Aaron became a student of Mormonism in 1998, when he was introduced to the religion by neighbors. His life was forever changed when he discovered Romans 4:5 “And to the one who does not work but trusts him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is counted as righteousness.” He joyfully looks back at his conversion in contrast to the “impossible gospel” set forth in the Miracle of Forgiveness and perfection of God’s law that he could never live up to.

Aaron is a computer programmer and a regular street evangelist. Aaron and his wife Stacie live in South Jordan, UT. Together they have a son and two daughters. He is working toward his Master of Biblical Studies at Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. https://mrm.org/team
