When the doctrines revolve around the identity of Jesus, and his actions,
then this seems a good place to differentiate sound doctrine from heresy.

Mormons claim faith in Jesus, but just dig a little, into their doctrines,
and you discover that it is not the Jesus represented in scripture.

I noticed this recently when I downloaded the latest WEB, and would like to
thank you for this.  It is especially important to do since there is no
reliable printed copy to compare to.  It gives me the assurance of a valid
copy.

Also, thanks for your efforts on the work on the WEB in general!
