"For behold, a bitter fountain cannot bring forth good water, neither can can a good fountain bring forth bitter water; wherefore a man being a servant of the devil cannot follow Christ; and if he follow Christ he cannot be a servant of the devil."
Moroni 7:11
So is the link you provided an example of:
a. A good fountain bringing forth good water
b. A good fountain bringing forth bitter water (not an option according to Moroni)
c. A bitter fountain bringing forth good water (not an option according to Moroni)
d. A bitter fountain bringing forth bitter water
All scripture is written with the same intent to bring people to Jesus Christ such that they can be changed from the natural man to a higher state of existence. If you take a moment to consider how much I talk about it this is the ONLY purpose I ultimately have as well.
So all the talk between what is good and what is evil is what bringeth to Christ and gets changed by the power of the Father, which is good, as opposed to everything that fails that standard, which is evil. As Christ said anything more or less than this comes of evil. 3 Nephi 11.
To understand scripture you much own this key. It is not talking about the world's concept of good and evil. This is why after a person is truly born again the scriptures open up and the can SEE the kingdom between the lines as they could not see it before.
I would like to take this opportunity to paint with an extremely broad brush the FACT that no Mormon today gets this and the purpose of the Restoration is utterly lost on the whole of them. How can a people go about with the utmost arrogance and parade themselves as the best of the best when they stumble like drunkards mocking God in all their hypocrisy defying him and by deceit refusing to come unto him and know the truth of the gospel. MAN! I hate them. Just sayin'.
