“He Would Cease to He God”

Joseph F. McConkie, Robert L. Millet
As we have shown previously (see Commentary 3:315), God cannot cease to be God. It is utterly and absolutely impossible for him to do so. And Moroni knows this. He is arguing toward the absurd, toward the impossible, to make his point. It is as though Moroni were saying, “It is as ridiculous to suppose that revelations and signs and miracles have ceased as it is to suppose that God could cease to be God!”
