   is Jesus not a spirit, was this spirit not in Ohio? Does Ohio not have the spirit of Jesus? I want 1000 dollars please, please interpret this so you send me the money, that would be most awesome, thanks kindly!

   please direct me to the reference–chapter and verse–of the Book of Mormon where is says that Jesus came to Ohio. I’ll give you $1,000 if you can find it.

   Silly, but still wrong. Here’s why:

   1- The references you point to are in the Doctrine and Covenants, not the Book of Mormon.

   2- The references say nothing about Jesus being in Ohio, they talk about the church in Ohio. Sure, you can argue that the spirit of the Lord is with the church, but by that same argument, Jesus being in Ohio wouldn’t be anything weird because in that sense He is everywhere.

   3- The problem with that argument, and the third problem with your assertion, is that Jesus is not a spirit. Didn’t you read the part in the New Testament about Jesus being resurrected in the flesh? So, while in a spiritual sense Jesus is everywhere, or rather the spirit of the Lord can be everywhere, Jesus is not physically everywhere and there is no reference in any scripture, nor any claim in Mormon doctrine that places Jesus physically in Ohio in the Book of Mormon, as was claimed by Carlos.

   Nice try, though. I’ll give you some points for effort.
