What do you mean the first hand thing?

Could it have come from a mistranslation of the movie Seven Brides for Seven Brothers?

Well Nehor I lived my whole life that way. The spirit told me a lot of things that were in dispute with what the spirit tells others in other faiths. The spirit is subjective. So who is right?

Funny dude you are.

Now really. What do you do. The spirit tells a couple evangelical friends of mine that they have the truth, that Mormonism is false and that they have been called to minister to Mormons. The spirit tells the Mormon that the Book of Mormon is truth, that the LDS Church is the only true and living Church and that my evangelical friends are sadly misled.

Who is right? Both think the spirit of God is leading them.

My feeling on this is that if both parties are living righteous lives based on what they are doing, then the Spirit is right in both instances.

Well perhaps I am too absolute but how can both be right, or maybe both are wrong.
